-> no vote

more trustfull administration staff is always good.

but:
-anyone has to train the new staff -> time has to be invested if new admin was no admin before
-how to be sure they are good for the job -> is it worth to invest time with introducing him/her
-lot of persons who would be goodfor it dun even want to get that big extra amount of work

also a admin should be able to be neutral on a matter even if they have a totally other opinion on it - dun think many here are able to do so.


maybe something like a admin-recruitment camp would help

make some candidates who seem to be good for the job a trial admin.
see who does good and add him to admin team finally

I think we absolutely need more admins, or at least folks capable of taking on responsibilities that the Admins aren't able to fulfill. What's happened in recent times is a general scaling-back of Admin responsibilities, with only one or two admins being drafted to fill the holes left by what appear to be inactive, or in some cases, resigned admins. -not all admins are inactive, that is not what I'm saying.- An example I'd cite is SRP, which was closed indefinitely.

If the workload is too great for the present admins to complete in a timely and efficient manner, then more admins should be raised to meet the workload in a timely and efficient manner, or at the very minimum, helpers capable of picking up the slack.

Additional admins would lighten the load on existing admins. That is good. However, admin position gives you considerable responsibilities within the community - the existing admins would need to be able to trust you with that responsibility. I do not think there's many people in this community that are both willing and mature enough to take the task on.

hard to say who is mature enough and who not.

just take cannon. hes doin good but also can be the totally ubertroll

bear did his job great as well if you ask me... but did you ever had a skypechatter with him... oh maaah gawd!!!:D


both... if i didnt ever seen their admin work... wouldnt fit in the admin role in my opinion - but they did/doin great.

thats why i think:

so everyone can see who's doin good.

just picking the oldies of the community - and those who already had that job - ages back - is no permanent solution.

we don't need more admins, we need to clone cannon so 4.86 can be finished.

For the first time I do need to agree with Kharon. Me is looking outside for the raining stones.

Sure, if there are people willing to do it, why not? This place is a lot bigger then it used to be and great deal more rules. The bureaucracy must expand to meet the needs of the bureaucracy.
