Debate between DustiTwister and Mariamom September 2013
GHawkins: Welcome to our newest DP debate, and thanks to the candidates who have agreed to share their innermost motivations with us!
If you have any questions, please feel free to post it directly here. If you're not sure how to use the wiki or would prefer to submit a question anonymously, just /chat GHawkins and I'll get it posted.
I am DustiTwister - I'm an Admin Assistant in a world wide insurance company wearing multiple hats for multiple jobs. I juggle stress daily and enjoy every minute of it. I've played ATitD for the last 9 years, starting with Tale 2. I've been elected DP twice. I am married in game to Hemptwister who also shares my real world. We met here in Tale 2 and have now set a wedding date of June 21, 2014. In game I'm a giver, a helper, a friend, a volunteer, a get er done kinda person. I seek out those who need help and jump in both feet. I talk too much at times, I trust too much at times, but in my world, even if your the worse person on earth, I'll try to find the good in you.
SECOND QUESTION If you win this election you will pass the test of the Demi-Pharaoh and be our 21th DP of this tale. What will you do differently once you have the role?
DustiTwister- I wouldn't do anything any different than I am now. I don't need the 'title' to be who I am, nor to give me the knowledge to know what to say when there's a dispute between two people. I'll always seek out the good, always seek out answers, and always look for alternative ways to help find the middle ground.
THIRD QUESTION: Have you seen any bannable behavior? What would be your approach as a DP to handling the situation?
DustiTwister-I have not seen any bannable behaviors. If that were the case, I'd not make a decision solely based upon my own discretion, but seek other DP's opinions (if there is any online) to be certain I've done my best to try to resolve the situation without the long arm of the Egyptian Law. I am confident enough that should I be the only one available to make that type of decision, I'd be able to do so.
FOURTH QUESTION What sort of leadership do you believe we need from our DPs?
DustiTwister- The type of leadership we need from our DP's are lead by example. Pay it forward. Use knowledge and common sense. Don't abandon post. If there's a need to, then at least explain before walking off. I learnt that lesson the hard way. I hurt a lot of people just disappearing as I did in Tale 4. I will never do that again!
FIFTH QUESTION: This isn't the first time as a DP candidate for either of you. Mariamom, you were a candidate earlier in the tale, and DustiTwister was a candidate in a previous tale. Is there any particular question that you were asked from the previous debate that you'd like to have been asked again, and for your opponent to answer? What was your answer then, has your answer changed, and please respond to the question posed by your opponent.
DustiTwister-I was DP in tale 2, and again in tale 4. What's to stop me from disappearing as most DP's do at the end of a telling? That question should be asked right here and now, only due to the fact that in tale 4, I disappeared. I had some conflict with another DP. I was being mocked, made fun of, and constantly harassed if I spoke to anyone whether it was in main chat, regional chat, or any guild chats. It got to the point, that like any other human being, you can only take so much. I would rather I have left, than to become the same person that the other person was. Why do I feel I can handle it now? I've come a long way since that day. Learned a lot of different tactics to handling personal conflict. I am confident enough that your stuck with me no matter what anyone does to me. I'm a much stronger, confident, and calmer individual than I was 3 years ago, growing through trials that were put in front of me since those days.
SIXTH QUESTION: What would you do if you found out someone else had accessed your account and used your ban powers? (Note: Spouselog does not allow access to DP Ban powers.)
DustiTwister -First and foremost, security of my computer is of utmost importance. I highly doubt someone would get my password that shouldn't. Now if, and that's a BIG "IF" someone were to log in as me and use my bans, then I would hope that I'd be able to call up kuupid (yes, I have her telephone number), to get her to help with the situation and get the person who violated the internet by hacking my account and then get Teppy involved to seek out permanently blocking their IP.
SEVENTH QUESTION: Would you rather be a pirate or a ninja, and why?
DustiTwister- I'd rather be a pirate. I don't like to sneak around. I like to be seen as who I am. I think pirates are more expressional and compassionate about who they are and what they stand for. I don't hide. I seek to be around people who are interested in what I have to offer.
FINAL CANDIDATE STATEMENT: Let's tell Egypt what they will get in a DP by voting for you.
DustiTwister-What you would get by electing me as DP, is Me! Plain and simple. Nothing will change other than the extra ability which comes along with the elected official. I yam who I yam -Bugs Bunny
GHawkins: That's it for now, but stick around. More questions may very well be coming.
There is, however, one last thing to do - and that is to head on out and get your votes cast for the next DemiPharaoh!
