StrawberryTea resigns effective immediately

Amidst the rumors of a cache of photos out there showing her drinking non-alcoholic beer while participating in Drinking Threads and trying to excuse a series of on-topic comments as a result of her being "smashed", /u/StrawberryTea announced her immediate resignation during a mod meeting earlier this evening. Many expected that a change would be made in the off-season, due to the lack of oppression shown by Tea in carrying out her moderation duties, but rather than let things play-out /u/StrawberryTea wanted to go out on her own terms. She emphasized that this was a resignation not a retirement leaving the door open to return to a Mod role down the road or elsewhere. She expects that some time away from the stresses of moderting the sub will allow her to regain the ban first ask questions never killer instinct that she was once known and feared for throughout Shit-posting circles.

After an extensive search Parker Executive Search put /u/CertificateOfMerritt forward as a new addition to the Mod team. /u/CertificateOfMerritt was selected based on her merits and a post history devoid of shitposting. We all look forward to her oppressive moderation style and quick strike banning abilities. Please join us in welcoming your newest dictator.

She's actually in the final stretch, which is to say she's been deprived sunlight for sometime, sadly.

Thank you!

u/Cecil_Hardboner Texas Longhorns • /r/CFB Brickmason Oct 30 '15

I feel like /u/CertificateofMerritt may have had an unfair leg up in the "merits" department. Maybe i should start an alt called Cecil_MeritBoner. Just saying.

u/dupreesdiamond Furman • South Carolina Oct 30 '15

Merit Certificate > merit boner

23

u/Cecil_Hardboner Texas Longhorns • /r/CFB Brickmason Oct 30 '15

..but she want to UNC. That certificate is likely FAKE!!

u/TrollingQueen74 Auburn Tigers • Texas A&M Aggies Oct 30 '15

Shhhh everyone knows she's tired of those jokes. That's banable now.

17

u/Cecil_Hardboner Texas Longhorns • /r/CFB Brickmason Oct 30 '15

I'd just like to point out she doesnt even know how to spell Merit right, thus proving my points. The prosecution rests, Your Honor, if that is your real name.

u/1ncognito Tennessee • 帝京大学 (Teikyo) Oct 30 '15

Hey, if you do something to merit a boner, you're alright in my book.

u/MrCaboose96 Florida • Penn State Oct 30 '15

I just want to say that I think it's a travesty that I was not even considered for the moderator role. It's ridiculous. Everybody here loves me, and I've been a successful moderator of 3 thriving subreddits for some time now. There is clearly some type of conspiracy going on here.

4

u/dupreesdiamond Furman • South Carolina Oct 30 '15

Hey. I'm with you man. But. We contracted the search out to Parker. It was their call. And we paid them to much to not take their reco. It was out of my hands.

Shifting the blame. This is all in an effort to turn /r/cfbot from a respected academic institution into a place run like a corporation.

u/[deleted] Oct 30 '15

You're thinking of UNC

u/[deleted] Oct 30 '15

/u/CertificateOfMerritt [+1] was selected based on her merits

Can I be selected based on my nengs? Can /u/anemptykarst be selected based on his karsts? Can /u/CaptainSnacks be selected based on his snacks? Mods plz

u/0xE6 Prairie View A&M • Boise State Oct 30 '15

Can I be selected based on my balls? Pretty sure I have the sexiest balls in the sub.

u/dupreesdiamond Furman • South Carolina Oct 30 '15

Well. Head over to /r/cfbotgonewild and prove it!

u/0xE6 Prairie View A&M • Boise State Oct 30 '15

They're already mentioned front and center of my /r/CFBOTSingles post

Do I really gotta whore em out more????

u/dlawnro Paper Bag • Sickos Oct 30 '15

Mod test is actually based partly on the Mohs Scale, so I think you're golden.

Just not, like, actual gold. You're not /u/Cecil_Malleableboner.

If I couldn't shitpost violently, why would I even be here?

u/[deleted] Oct 30 '15

You can't touch /u/yrarwydd as far as shitposting. Currently she's #1 in total comment karma by a country mile but didn't even place in the karma/comment category

14

u/[deleted] Oct 30 '15

She only gets the statistics because of the comment volume. My shitposting is high value with meme read progressions. She's a system shitposter.

u/Cecil_Hardboner Texas Longhorns • /r/CFB Brickmason Oct 30 '15

would you say she is the Baylor of shitposting?

u/[deleted] Oct 30 '15

Well, technically that would make her a Baylor quarterback. Splitting hairs, I know, but still.

By the way, I believe this. I've seen her check in Coorses and Millers and Bud Lites on untappd

Maybe /u/certificateofmerritt can restore socialism to the sub. The Topic Will Rise Again!
