What happens if no one can fulfill the fee for running in an election?
1. Yes, not caring. That way you don't have to figure it out! \:D/ Other than that...not to my knowledge.

2. That is a rhetorical question that I need no answer to until it happens...which it never has. People have asked that a few times, but two or more teams always end up with enough money, even if it's towards the end of the fee deadline.

You can click View new posts in the User Toolbox. But it doesn't give you a number, you'd have to count manually/

Is there a revert or rollback feature for mods if they accidentally edit post wrong (e.g. blanking it)?

In the History of the ToO has anyone ever been acclaimed?

Because I was getting embarrassed by people PMing me to find out why it was blue. :anxious: I prefer to work in the shadows. Like Batman. :-$

No there is not. So please be perfect. :x

Well, okay, it's okay to make a mistake. But no, we can't retrieve stuff once it's been removed. That would be handy, though!

Should be pretty easy to install if the new admins or you or whoever wants to put it in.

I think that the question was more related to if a Moderator edited a post and accidentally erased it. That MOD wouldn't help in that case. A Post revisions MOD would, but we really don't need it for any very serious reason. ;)

Yeah, that's the one, as far as I can tell. Darcie can correct me if I'm wrong. ;)
Joanne wrote:Do you ever want to quit your position at the ToO?
Not very often. Just every now and then. ;) Overall I enjoy my time here. :D I've been doing this for long enough that it just seems like a normal part of life, and barring occasional kerfuffles, things go fairly smoothly. \:D/

It's an er sound. To me the best part of "kerfuffles" is that my spell check doesn't underline it! \:D/
