I would like to lend my rff nomination to Blackhole252. He is mature, stays calm, and is very funny and fun-loving. I am sure he would block most forum vandals, not abuse his powers, sticky, lock, and move threads. I am sure he would use this power responsibly and not abuse it.

I accept the nomination for Forum Adminship. This does not include the Yew Groves, simply the regular forums on this wiki. I have been very active in the forums recently (and reached my personal goal of 1,000 posts) and I would like to further help everybody here. I participate in all areas of the forum: Tavern, Help Desk, Voting Booth, Events, and Off-topic. I am also friendly, polite, and I strongly believe in helping everyone here at the wiki. I think everyone would really benefit from me if I was a forum admin. Even though I rarely participate in the Yew Grove, I am extremely active in the other forum and you can find my posts in almost every thread. I have fully read and understood the policy concerning adminship. I do realize that this nomination may fail. If I get forum adminship, I solemnly promise not to abuse my powers and if I do, my forum adminship can be revoked. --Disk of returning Malcolm33 Disk of returning 20:06, 10 June 2009 (UTC)

Questions for the nominee

1. What forum administrative work do you intend to take part in?

I'm already very active in the forums, with forum admin powers, I can better help counter against vandalism and rule-breakers.

2. What are your best contributions to the RuneScape Wiki, and why?

I have posted on almost every thread and given my ideas and opinions. My most helpful thread, I would say, would be "Ask Quick Questions Here!" because it will answer all of the quick and small questions that people have.

3. Have you been in any conflicts over editing in the past or have other users caused you stress? How have you dealt with it and how will you deal with it in the future?

I don't think so.

Comment - Could you answer the questions on the template, please? (Replacing "administrative" with "forum admin" of course.) Weird gloop @Gaz#7521 22:06, 8 June 2009 (UTC)

Thank you. Weird gloop @Gaz#7521 17:17, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

Support - Blackhole is probably more active on the forums than the wiki itself :D FredeTalk 17:45, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

Oppose - If we nominated someone every time they have a decent post count and good behavior we'd have a couple dozen forum admins. Don't you think 7ish is plenty? Andrew talk 18:26, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

Comment - Soldier, why were you then nominated for Forum adminship? If '7ish' is plenty (or was it 6 back then?), why did you then let Jedi nominate you? FredeTalk 18:33, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
I already had most of the abilities of a forum admin so there wasn't really a difference? Andrew talk 18:35, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
Exactly... FredeTalk 18:38, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
..which means I could already moderate the forums. This is just another of many users that posts a lot and, considering the amount of posts per day on the forums + the amount of users that post a lot, too many people moderating the forums is not necessarily a good thing. Andrew talk 18:40, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
Soldier, just as with admins, we do not have a server limit or memory issues to limit the amount of forumadmins; why do you want to limit the number? If we don't solve 100% of the forum's problems that require forumadmin tools, then we don't have enough. Nothing is perfect. Therefore, we don't have enough forumadmins.

I never said I wanted to limit the number, but it is my opinion that there are already enough people moderating the forums. Andrew talk 18:29, 10 June 2009 (UTC)

Oppose - I'll have to think it over a bit more. This was a pending but I suck at Wiki editing and all so I just deleted pending and wrote in oppose. And per D4k. Prayer Jedi Talk HS Log Tracker Summoning 18:29, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

Oppose - Monopolised all of the Forums to gain the Post Count... also, great amount of pointless posts. Has shown inability to follow the rules, and ignorance fo some of our policies. Now that's a throwing weapon!Doucher4000******r4000I'll eat you! 21:26, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

Slight oppose - Although you are very active in the forums, it seems to me that you are desperate to have these powers and be recognized, as shown several times by your WBMing. Zaros tallyBladeQuick chat button# 00:36, 10 June 2009 (UTC)

Weak oppose - I happened upon a comment of yours in a certain thread on the Off-topic forum. It said something like, "Once I become an admin and succeed, I can join you in this game," or something or the sort. This pertains to what Name said above. Although I believe you have good intentions, that statement didn't really appeal to me.  Tien  01:09, 10 June 2009 (UTC)

Neutral - IMO, I think there is enough forum admins. Our Forums are relatively small, so I don't see a need to have all active users there admins. Sorry.

I no longer want to request for forum adminship - Bonziiznob is right, I decided that we have enough admins on the forum and I've changed my mind about this nomination. Meanwhile, I'll just keep my place as the most active regular user on the forums. Even though this nomination has failed, can I request for forum adminship again next year in 2010?
