SmashWiki:Requests for bureaucratship/Charitwo: Difference between revisions

Hey, Smashwiki team, I'm [[User:Charitwo|Charitwo]], one of administrators here. I've thought about this a while, and after speaking to one of the semi-active bureaucrats, he suggested that I follow this route to request bureaucrat here on SmashWiki. We currently don't have a set process, as the last bureaucrat was chosen by hand, but due to the increase in the community from the merge, a warrant for consensus is needed.  

:::Who lost their cool? I hope you must be referring to Charitwo; I still haven't lost mine. I even waited a day to make sure I wasn't changing my vote out of anger and/or spite. After all, [http://www.nizkor.org/features/fallacies/appeal-to-emotion.html that's] [http://www.nizkor.org/features/fallacies/appeal-to-spite.html fallacious] on two counts, and I wouldn't want to deny a possible candidate (when this wiki needs another) because I was biased. However, I am confidant that I am unbiased, and thus I can honestly say I don't think Chatitwo would make a good bureaucrat. I will admit what Charitwo said made me angry. I started shaking when I read it. That's the truth. Why else do you think I refrained from posting on his page again? I would have lost my temper. However, I refuse to lose my temper on the (or any) wiki, this one in particular because of my current status. Consider my standing. All the users who care enough to remember who I am consider me an upstart firebrand who spreads fiery rhetoric to change things, mirite? (If you don't, let me know. It would honestly amaze me.) Do you really think blowing up would improve my "popularity" and thus my ability to get things done ('''for the betterment of the wiki''')? No, it wouldn't. I backed my post up with logic and reasoning. If you wish to ignore it, I can't force you to heed it, but please do not accuse me of losing my cool. For example, I even talked with Charitwo for a bit on IRC yesterday. I doubt KirbyKing, Sky, or Charitwo would say I said anything even remotely rude to him. We had a friendly conversation, and that was it. I hold nothing against Charitwo personally, only against him as a user wishing to become a bureaucrat. My cool remains intact. (Though I am curious what you mean by "I'm impressed" and "Jolly good show, though.")  --[[User:Shadowcrest|<font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="Steelblue">Shadowcrest</font>]] 15:54, 7 September 2008 (UTC)

::::Good for you for sticking to your guns. You're not fooling anyone, though. You hold nothing but contempt for this wiki and its inhabitants. You, Shadowcrest, are not Change We Can Believe In, but you're giving it the best you got. You're a lot of fun to have around, I might add, but I didn't. On purpose. Until next time, then?
