Do we need sub-admins?

[Mr.Clark]

I have made more than one questionable decision in the past, and since we have plenty of mods and admins, I'm beginning to wonder if I should have this power.

No-one's asked for a custom tag in a while, and every spur-of-the-moment decision I take involving admin powers seems to go slightly wrong.

I got the rank for hosting TOP for a short while when RB had problems with web-hosting. Now that he's had it back and it's moved hosts again, perhaps now is the time for me to step down.

I'll leave the poll running until Sunday. After that, demote me to Peasant if that is the will of the People.

[Steve]

Everything seems fine as it is, I see no reason why you shouldn't stay sub-admin.

Uh didn't you have a little hissy fit when your admin powers got taken away after the forum moved and thats why you got made into a sub-admin?

[Dan]

I don't see a problem with the way things is at the moment.

[Jezreel]

Hmmm. Sub.
*makes sub*

[Joe]

Sub-admins are unnecessary at the moment, and the devil makes work for idle thumbs.

So me say no.

There may have been a sarcastic comment thrown in, but I hope I never gave the impression that I was any sort of power-crazed maniac...

[RB]

I can confirm that the reason I Sub Admined Mr C was in thanks for running the place at short notice. And the fact he has always seemed like a fair minded and nice sort of bloke not prone to hissy fits.

I say stay as Sub admin unless you start getting craig style flamings.

[Nemesis]

This place barely needs moderators, let alone sub-admins.

Tis pointless in my eyes and if, by your own admission you have screwed stuff up, maybe it ain't such a hot idea.

[Ekona]

I'm in two minds over this.


One part says that you've made a few errors in judgement (by your own admission), but you're not the first and you certainly won't be the last: Hell, I almost lost a really good friend on here because I acted first and thought later. I learnt my lesson, and I reckon you should certainly be allowed to stay on. Also you helped this place out a lot when things went tits-up at RB's end, and we can all certainly be thankful for that.

However, as Tom points out there's not really a lot whole lot to do here right now, so maybe less people with the ability to cock things up is a good idea. And yes, I include myself in that.


So... Yes you should probably go, but certainly not because you made a few mistakes.

[Jezreel]

Impeach the drunken cunt first.

*looks round*

Mirror!

[nomis]

There are two questions in this thread...

The title: Do we need sub-admins

To that I'd say no

The poll: Should Mr C stay as a sub-admin

This however I say yes, because Mr C did help us out in a time of need, and hasn't done anything even close to bad enough to warrant being stripped of his title.

Sure we don't need them, but don't see any benefit in change for change sake.

In short; Nuffins broke so no fix required

[Jezreel]

Impassioned pleas and speeches aside. THe poll carries the whole weight. And if it's my weight. It's weighty. Just weight a second. I'm going to the ilse of weight.

[Mr.Clark]

The People have spoken.

My thanks to those that still have confidence in me

However, the Nays have it.

But it's 11-7 against (and my No vote), so I've resigned as sub admin.

And... relax


As to whether or not to keep a sub admin group in case it's needed, I leave that up to someone else to worry about.
