Well, for one thing, I suggest that any new admins or moderators be considered in the light of the following:
-Are they currently or have they in the past been a part of the dev team?
If so, I'd say to think carefully about said person. Reason being, from what I've seen and heard, the Devs get a lot of flak. Tempers flare, and fur flies. It'd take a lot of effort to receive that and still keep a level head about moderating.
Also, time constraints would be a concern. A dev has other calls on his or her time besides forum duties.
Thus, I would nominate the following:
- Thexare
He's a levelheaded guy. Gets along well with people. Isn't a dev as far as I know.
- Rudo
He's awesome. Just plain awesome. He doesn't take crap from anyone. Kinda like me.
- Zapp
Again, plain awesome. He knows the rules inside-out and backwards. He's gotten a Voidrunner, a Nomad ID for his cruiser, managed to hide the fact that he secretly had a Corsair for the longest time, and he's getting a custom Tundra model.
- Tazuras
Levelheaded. Easy to get along with. Has a Protoss avatar. He spells properly, can use grammar, knows the rules, and doesn't smell that bad.

I apologize if my initial wording was misleading..
This is of My opinion & not endorsed by admin what so ever. As Cannon added to my first post, This is not official, just me making a suggestion.

Sorry if any confusion has occurred.
I'll add: suggestions are welcome. That's how I interpreted your post and it's interesting to read this thread. Just thought I should clarify it because a few people were confused.

I don't think Jinx is fit for the positions, not to make that an attack. Just an observation. I don't feel that he has the right personality type to be involved in either position. While calm, rational, and always open to multiple view points I wouldn't expect Jinx to slam someone when they stepped particularly out of line, which is needed.
Tenacity is fun though, swell fella. But he might get himself sanctioned in the process.
While many people would like to think that electing new admins and mods is all based on the popularity level of those individuals , that isn't the case. As a result from that , many people who would do a good job as admins or mods have been cast aside.
Just to add , it has nothing to do with the post count as well.
