{{Webber22|text=Lol, toldyaso! It had the potential to turn into a shitstorm. Just look at me.....I probably would've banned Sheik '''''just because she was mean to me!''''' You can't have that sort of power in the hands of that kind of irresponsibility! ...But I digress. I'm all for giving regular contributors more toys to play with for the sake of streamlining the processes. As long as we can't hamper or mess with each other.}} | {{Webber22|text=Lol, toldyaso!

{{TNE|time=22:41, 30 November 2015 (UTC)|blahtext=On the issues raised thus far: | |||
*'''Promotion to modship for TSH, TheFifteenthMember and COF:''' I'm all for it. I wouldn't mind. That being said, we do have a relatively high staff-to-active user ratio at the moment, so is now the right time? Just how many of us have rollback capability at the moment, and how many of us are active a lot of the time? | |||
*'''Retired and inactive staff:''' There's been a cleanup initiative of this sort on the Staff page, but I suppose that right now it's been collecting dust. Ish. We need to do summat about it... | |||
**Even more on this subject: Once we had a timetable denoting just how active staff members can be. Well, this doesn't as much apply to us mods as it does to admins and above. Is that timetable still up-to-date? | |||
*'''Hostile takeover:''' By the time something like this happened on the Kingdom Hearts Francophone Wiki (if I remember correctly, this was in 2012), Unbirth and myself were already promoted to bureaucrat status. Our third admin, Thomaskh2, would have been in the running for that sort of power but unreasonably blocked people for even the most minor of editing mistakes, and had become a general douche where previously, he wasn't. I think that other admins were also given that sort of treatment. It'd become unbearable and Unbirth and I had to demote him. I'm using this as an example. Thing is, we were fortunate, I guess, because Thomaskh2 didn't ''dare'' block the bureaucrats. This wouldn't have ended well, and Wikia would have most certainly intervened. At least give them credit for that ''one'' thing. | |||
**Now, among our current admins, if one of us turns rogue, the others will likely have the power to veto it before things turn sour. Only trouble is, what happens if the admin abuses his privileges long before we can do anything about it owing to different timezones and stuff? If it is possible for ''one'' person to not be able to be blocked, it has to be Porplemontage, and much further in the future, we may see that sort of privilege pass on to the next manager of the wiki, who has to be at its beck and call if an issue like this should happen. | |||
**I am all for one-way hierarchy in a situation like ours, because Porple is relatively active, in that he answers to distress calls reasonably quickly. I understand that such a situation would be subject to change, but not in the near future. | |||
