Bump Them Up To Blue.

November 20, 2007, 10:32 PM

Making this thread was inspired by the discovery of a rather interesting website and accompanying advertisement, in terms of gossip.
http://www.sitepoint.com/marketplace/auction/15728

Now, if you read through this site, you should get a clear idea of what's happening. Nah, I'm not venting, I'm not dramatising or any of that [although the focus of the forums seems to have shifted from discussing to profit-making]. The purpose of this thread is entirely different.

Unless the few people who brought this to my attention and I have totally grabbed the wrong end of the stick, LeeD's trying to sell FFF. Long story short, we've come to the conclusion that we're going to need some consistency in our Administrators. With Darkblade gone [and inactive anyway] and the other two Administrators being technically orientated, we're going to need another Administrator or two to basically give a face value to the site and to keep the maintainance consistent. By that, I mean -- if we have a problem that needs to be taken to an Administrator, we wont have to worry about re-capping the events to the possible new Administrator [who might not even be interested in the forum itself -- only in selling it on further].

It's been discussed for quite a while now, anyway, but to clarify, a number of us have unofficially proposed that Lady Aerith and Saix both be promoted to Administrators to fulfil the above purpose.

LeeD, particularly, if you could both reply to this thread to confirm our thoughts and approve/disapprove of our proposal, we would sincerely appreciate it.

They need and deserve to be Admins, and i'd agree full heartedly with that proposal, they're both loyal and active Gmods, and would be perfect for an Admin spot. I've already pmed LeeD with my thoughts on Admins/Gmods so, he knows what i'd like to see happen. I'm just one person however, and it's his decision in the end.

And you say DB is gone, but is he really gone? He's still on the staff last and has the "administrator" star on his profile, same as the FFF System still has trhe "forums staff" star on their profile.

I agree, Lady Aerith and Saix should be bumped to admin before LeeD sells the website. If they get bumped then we would need two more Gmods who are up for the job. *cough*RikuandAG*cough*

I was somewhat surprised to see that advert really. If LeeD was in it for the money all along, then well done to him. Clever investment in my eyes. I don't necessarily agree with the remark that people wouldn't care about the site being sold though.

I wouldn't have any problems with either LA or Saix being bumped up to admins, providing they're willing of course.

LA and Saix should definitely be bumped up to admins, and i agree with Cerridwen. Riku and AG definitely need to be upgraded to Gmods, and since Rhea has stepped down Warbs too

Since we're on the subject, Riku's been a Gmod and a section mod before, and should LA and Saix be admined, he would be the perfect replacement for them in my eyes. Another, perfect candidate in my opinion, for the same reasons as Riku, is Judge Rulia.

As for AG = Gmod plz. I'd do it if i was offered, but i'd rather the job went to JR/Riku

I think a staffing team led under LA and Saix would be perfect, they balance each other out, and they're on different time zones, so an active admin would be easier to reach.

I don't know Saix that well but I agree Adminning him would be a good idea. [he's on another site that i'm on]

LA, I do know and I personally [though my opinion matters very little] think she would make a fantastic Admin. She's constistent and fair and thats what every forum needs.

AG, you'd make a great g-mod. As would Riku. And as you said, so would Judge Rulia.

I have to agree with everyone [as little as this may matter it does to me O.o] LA and Saix fer admin <3

I spoke to LeeD last week and he never mentioned anything about it, so I'm somewhat shocked. Additionally, I agree that LA would be an awesome admin. Saix, I'm not sure about as I have had history with him in the past.

As for myself, you all have no idea how bad I wish I could afford to buy this place and keep it going, but I'm still a little bit off from having that much money for right now. Suffice it to say though, I'm good at Vb, love FF, and know some about these boards should help ever be needed.

Ooh, I got mentioned. I don't know if anyone would consider modding me after inactivity, but if people are saying things now, then I'd love to pick up activity and prove myself. Though I do believe AG should be a Greeny Global too, as Riku <3

...is it me or is everyone saying the same thing??
i was told to post in here so im gonna although i dont have much to say... I say that LA and Saix should be bumped up to blue, and i think that AG and Riku would be good as Green..
