Not enough Administrators?

**Yamaneko** · 05-12-2003, 07:06 AM

Eyes on Final Fantasy Forums has three admins, two of which are active. Personally I'd like to see a couple more admins here. For me, more admins means more power dispersed and better decisions being made. I doubt this is any of my business, but I'd like to see what other members and staff have to say about this.

...just because the Admins don't post doesn't mean they aren't active... I've seen Sean in the Who's Online list a couple times last week. :P

I guess I define activity on forums by posts.

**Roogle** · 05-12-2003, 07:20 AM

Ack, that's not a good way to determine activity. I don't post that much, but I'm always on the forums, listenin' to 1000 no Kotoba...

I'm curious to know when the last time was Sean did something that was Admin-like.

I'm with Yams on this one, though it's true it's none of our business.

If by "admin-like" you mean making decisions having to do with the running of the website or message board, then the answer is May 8th. =P

Ehh, is there anything specific that is not getting done, "admin-wise," that having another administrator would fix?

***Del Murder*** · 05-12-2003, 07:36 AM

Of course that's Admin-like. How odd. Anyway, thank you for that information.

Question: Who is the current webmaster with Scottie gone?

**Roogle** · 05-12-2003, 07:47 AM

Me.

**Big Ogre Umaro** · 05-12-2003, 07:49 AM

He's a cute one, ain't 'e?

Getting things done obviously is not the point here. The point is giving the commoners the impression that things are more secure by improving the image of the proverbial hands that said things are in.

Roogle should have taken over as webmaster by now if I'm not mistaken.

But I don't think I understand why we'd need more admins for decisions to be made better. There are a bunch of active mods and their say counts just as much in decisions as mine and BOUs do. The only actual power that admins hold over mods is to actually do things like alter template, change names, add features, and those have nothing to do with decisions other then me deciding if I have time to add in a member search dilly between work and school.

EDIT: Three people post while I'm typing... Bah.

**Roogle** · 05-12-2003, 07:56 AM

Yeah, I'm just gonna say that there's not really a need for another administrator unless you want more people changing names and making more usergroups or creating forums.

Mandee explained it best when she said, "There are a bunch of active mods and their say counts just as much in decisions as mine and BOUs do." So it really doesn't matter how many admins are as long as things that need to be done get done, because that's all they really do...

I actually have LESS power than most of the moderators, realistically speaking, because I'm like constantly in the minority. =P

*Mexican*

**Kawaii Ryûkishi** · 05-12-2003, 07:57 AM

Some get it, and some don't.

Yup.

Well there you go, Roogle would make a perfect admin on the forums since he's current webmaster.
