    Hey mods and admins,

    I was wondering, how is everyone holding up? You guys have been mods for so long, I am wondering if any of you are feeling burned out doing this?

    Also, I know Tamar appointed me as an admin over people who have been serving in here way longer, and I wanted to make sure there wasn't any bad feelings in regards to this. I have more pips next to my username, but in regards to being on staff, I still feel like a mod and only said yes to this to support Tamar and improve this place a bit.

    Again, thanks for all you do, as it would be extremely difficult to run this forum without your help. I know generally, the place runs itself most of the time, but it's reassuring to know there are extra sets of eyes to monitor things in case we get attacked by the Chinese. They are always plotting, no doubt.

    Well, you were made admin to give you access to the AdminCP tools you might need in making changes or working on recruitment.

    I was pretty sure you wouldn't be running crazy with "power" or stepping on the supermods toes. Or intiating banning sprees.

    I only tried to ban Packard but the ban button is greyed out in his panel. :shrug:

    Anyone who gets into feeling jealous of someone elses staff position shouldn't be on staff.

    I think you're doing a good job up to now.

    Naw, if I become burnt out on WF it won't be due to moving the occasional thread.

    Can't speak for everybody yet it doesn't seem like anybody has been angling for an Admin spot, there just isn't that type of dynamic going on.

    Basically put $corp, put your mind at ease, you're doing just fine. :)

    Pro-tip, smacking someone with a few warnings will eventually trigger an auto-ban on their account. As a mod I don't see the ban button so that's how I've dealt with a couple of spambots in the past.

    Gotta log in to the control panel bub, you can ban users straight-away.

    Well, except for Packard.

    So I can. I'm sure that's not appeared there before...
