Woah, you're back again?

Guess who's back / Back again / Maxy's back / Tell a friend

If you were admin before, I'm not the one who changed anything.

The amount of admins and mods pisses me off. Too large for the amount of users.

I know right.
The only option is to MAKE MORE MEMBERS

Well, here's the thing. As I was explaining to TheSilverGuitar, the most a forum this large needs is two mods and one admin. I mean, the forum other forum I go to which I moderate at, has 4 mods, but we only need three. Not even Newgrounds has as many admins as we do. With the amount of admins we have, we sacrifice the ability to have a centralized leader, whose policies we base our own off of. Unless we're intent on making this a truly democratic process, which probably wouldn't work considering the fact that each admin has the ability to undo the ability of the others, we're gonna need to make some cuts.

The amount of admins has to do with all the changes. EpicFail is still an admin, but he's inactive. Alfain and I were made admins when DruDru left. And igott and TheSilverGuitar are admins now because they brought this place back. I think having at least two admins is a good idea because if one goes inactive for a while, you'll still have someone active with admin power.

I think the amount of mods has something to do with the changes too. Timmy is obviously inactive because he is skiing. Lost-Chances has been inactive since his little tiff with EpicFail. And then there were the people I modded when this site was dying and I knew I wouldn't be around much at all anymore. They were the ones still plenty active so I figured it'd make sense to have mods who actually used the site.

While the amount we have isn't totally necessary, I don't really see a point in changing it.

I don't think any admins have ever undermined another and if there is a disagreement over something, it can always be discussed in the admin forum. This is a pretty laid-back place, I can't imagine any major conflicts occurring.
