Wait, what? I thought you were joking when you suggested it in the other post

We can always use more admins.

For now.

Hmm.

5 more votes and 11.5 more hours, and I’m an admin.

Posted that at the same time as Sgeo and Clucky. I have a bad habit of doing things like that.

Oops, meant to say Bucky in the last post. And I did it again.

Bucky and Clucky, what are your reasons?

Maturity.  In general, it takes new players a couple of dynasties to get used to how things work around here.  It varies by player, but I get the impression that you haven’t hit the critical level of experience yet.

Nothing personal Darth, I just haven’t played with you for awhile.  After this dynasty if you still want to be an admin, I’m sure I’ll be mmore than willing to vote for you.

I understand and accept your reasons. I assume Clucky’s reason is because of the PM about Rodlen’s plans I sent all active players earlier.

Going to include in mine a lack of familiarity about the rules.  Admins need to be very aware of the core rules, especially those pertaining to proposals.  A lack of awareness about how they work is not a bad thing, just not something that is condusive to being an Admin.

You know, this proposal was mainly a joke anyway, since Rodlen jokingly suggested that I should become an admin after finding out that some bug in EE is letting me use the admin function.

s/k.

s/k.

You know, I was actually made an admin in the same dynasty in which I joined.

Quorum was probably low back then.

Actually, it went about 100 hours before finally being enacted.  In that time, I think it went back and forth between passing and failing about 3 or 4 times, and quorum was probably around 7 or 8 (not too high but not too low).

Yes, I did make some mistakes early on (like adminning proposals too early), but I learned from my mistakes.  As such, I say that if DC really wants to be an admin, let him.  I think that the only reason you should disallow someone from becoming an admin is if you honestly believe that they would abuse it.

To quote myself:
“You know, this proposal was mainly a joke anyway, since Rodlen jokingly suggested that I should become an admin after finding out that some bug in EE is letting me use the admin function.”

I don’t see much of a use for actually being an admin, besides speeding everything up.

To quote myself again:
” s/k.”
