Darth Revan of the Sith Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 Hypothetical question... If you could pick any member of YCM to be admin who would it be? Why would you pick them and would they be okay being admin alone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flame Dragon Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 I vote for the guy that's been active here for 5 years. Since I don't know anyone else that has been part of the forum that long without stopping that just leaves me. As such I would make the best admin. ^ Pro Logic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Welche Alt Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 I should think given what the members are asking for, we would want an admin who was well versed in IPBoard software, not just someone chosen bassed on a popularity contest.

Le Welche Alt Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 So given the members on the forum currently are there any candidates? I myself know nothing of forums and I barely know you lot so I could not make the judgment. If not YCMaker would need to outsource the job in which case it would become much more troublesome.

[/quote] I think a few members know enough about IPBoard and are decent enough members that they would make decent choices. However seeing as how YCMaker is personally looking for someone and is likely going to outsource it we have no idea what we'll get until hell freezes over and it happens.

So my decision sadly would be based solely on who I trust to not screw things up and/or go on a power trip. Which means I can't vote for Cifer...or you FD. :< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legend Zero Posted August 16, 2012 Report Share Posted August 16, 2012 The only realistic way to become admin is to go to YCMaker in person for an interview. But if [b]I[/b] was admin I would..... <[i][/i]_< >_> -[i][/i]_- Be as lazy as YCMaker but be active. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
宇佐見 蓮子@C94 Posted August 16, 2012 Report Share Posted August 16, 2012 I pick this monkey I found at my local park for Admin. He'll still do a better job than YCMaker and Flying Pizza. Jokes aside, I think there are several members here who are both famous and respected while also versed in IPBoard software. However, since I know not one of those people, I think it's best to pick someone who has been here for a long time and has good rep. So for me, it's either Charizard or Cifer.

Brushfire Posted August 16, 2012 Report Share Posted August 16, 2012 If I had to pick anyone on this site, I'd pick myself. Not out of some vain attempt to make myself seem better than everyone else, but simply because I'm the only person I know here who knows how to run a website. It's pretty basic, but the majority of people here don't know how to use the cPanel, how to create SQL databases, how to run an FTP server or install software... let alone make modifications to the software themselves and run the site successfully. If I were an administrator then improvements to the site would be a guarantee, which is more than I can say for a lot of people. Other contenders would have to be the likes of Frunk, Ruby, Bloodrun and Draco Straybyrn. But none of those are here anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smesh Posted August 16, 2012 Report Share Posted August 16, 2012 On a serious note, I really can't answer this question. I can easily list people who would make good mods, but being an administrator is a lot different. I'm calling it now. There will be a new admin by the end of the year, somehow it will happen.

BehindTheMask Posted August 16, 2012 Report Share Posted August 16, 2012 Frunk is the only correct choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
