| | Okay, before we start saying "Make User X a mod and not User Y," I want to say that we shouldn't open slots for new mods/admins if we get no reply, because I don't want to assume their answer to be "no". Just like we do on this wiki by assuming good faith, and in our IRC policy, I want to give XienZo, Riku, Scottch, NeloAngelo, and Urutapu the benefit of the doubt and allow them to keep their current status. It is very important to me that we do not assume inactivity of an admin/mod simply because they have not edited in a long time or have not replied to the e-mail. Those users did an incredible amount of work to achieve their current work, the least we can do is continue to recognize them for it on the staff page in full. |

| | And now, I would like to make a special request that I have spoken to KrytenKoro about, and that is promoting one user directly from an average user up to a sysop. This user has done work for the wiki we never thought possible, and has given a tremendous amount of time, effort, and technology into getting our wiki what we need quickly and perfectly. Even more amazing, this user has never complained '''''once'''''. I will tell you right now, a user that constantly complains is like a rock in my shoe, and I would love to <s>render you incapable of performing certain bodily functions</s> give you a good, long, non-violent talking-to. Yeah. Anyway, this user also could greatly use the sysop tool of deleting and moving images accordingly, since he specializes in the image field. The user I am speaking of is ShardofTruth, and I can speak for both myself and KrytenKoro that he deserves a position as a sysop. Also, on the note of not promoting Xion4ever, we promoted HeartOfOblivion while he was inactive, how was that any different? While Xion4ever's situation is making contributing difficult for her right now, I would not oppose to giving out dear mod sysop rights. Other than that, the promotion of Troinsyxetienne and Neumannz both seem... fine, to me. ''Just'' fine. |

| | As for the mods who replace them, '''''remember this''''': a mod should be an example of the "ideal editor", or as close to one as they can get. Basically, I don't want them to complain, cause/fuss about drama, be a huge WikiPrincess on the user talk pages, and they should be currently active in contributing to the growth of the wiki. No warnings is something I also would like to see in a new mod. Remember, a mod is nothing more than a "glorified editor"; their reward is almost nothing (rollback), it's just like a medal of honor saying, "You're a helpful contributor, have a mention on the staff page!", pretty much. Plus, after these many promotions, the graduation of a moderator to a sysop after this is going to be, well, very unlikely and would require several administrators to have to drop off of the face of the wiki. You're essentially going to be selecting very long-term mods.}} |
