Oh, right, not admins, more like a moderator, huh? Sorry. And I don't mean a mod that stays up 24/7, what I mean is someone that is... online at those times before.

What I'm saying is, we need someone that is able to block users at the times when most of you are at school or doing something. Only few of us are from Asia and we're normal users.

We need shifts for the admins. At these times, almost all admins aren't available, save for Maggosh and Kryten, they did appear at these times but not most of the times. And at these times, we are vulnerable to vandals. Last night there's a UC that vandalizes about 5 of our articles, luckily me, Sovereign, and Organization13 is present to stop him/her and give him/her 3 warnings. So please, we need an admin that is active at these times, we either do shifts or make someone reliable an admin.The17Gull Wing Keychain KHII.pngMaster 13:24, December 20, 2010 (UTC)

While it takes an admin to block users, everyone else is perfectly capable of reverting vandalism, issuing warnings, and in the case that they don't stop, leave us admins messages so that we can deal with it when we get back online. It isn't necessary for us to be here 24/7, and it's not really realistic to expect it, since life tends to get in the way. What was the vandalism? --Neumannz, The Dark Falcon 17:23, December 20, 2010 (UTC)
I think what he means is there should be an admin present at all times in case a vandal did not acknowledge warnings, and just continued to vandalize pages. Sure, they can revert them all they want, but that gets tiring after a while. I don't necessarily think that we need shifts, but I do think it might be a good idea to take some sort of precaution against surprise vandal attacks. (Not that I really have any ideas for it). --JFH_Sig_zpsfaa1e7d5.jpg 17:29, December 20, 2010 (UTC)
An admin using the recent changes can monitor all edits in at least the last 24 hours. For the time being, I show up here every day, or at least often enough to cover every single edit, so shifts are not necessary."We're werewolves, not swearwolves." (KrytenKoro) 17:32, December 20, 2010 (UTC)
Like Kryten said, we have reliable admins and/or mods on all the time. DTN, Neumannz, Maggosh, Kryten... I think we're good. Not to mention regular users can undo edits, too. --Ag (Silver) - 47 107.8682 amu ~Crono Vsymbol1.png 17:37, December 20, 2010 (UTC)
