RuneScape:Requests for adminship/Bonziiznob


 * My first RfA
 * Unfortunately, my second RfA

Bonziiznob
First, I would like to quote my closing remarks from my last RfA:

To All Users on the Wikia - Thanks to all of those users who supported myself in this RfA. I feel that as a sysops, I could fulfill all your expectations and so much more. It is greatly appreciated to know I have users who support my edits and I'm proud to call you my friends on this wikia, however, it's an RfA. It's is not about receiving votes because you are a friend, or a nice person. It is about the quality of your edits, the community involvement, and your overall dedications and professionalism in aiding this wikia. As I have learned by the contributions to this wikia, I am still rather new, and although I feel I am a very experienced user, I have room to grow, and I always will, but I feel that my closing this RfA, and continuing as a user with rollback, I can learn so much more before becoming a sysops that would allow for my ability as a sysops to be all that much better. My goals are with this wikia, to improve it, and always will be. Although this RfA is still new and quite possibly stands a chance, I feel I can learn more and gain more knowledge by declining at this present time and taking the time to get to know more users, the community and the format of this wikia, even just a little bit more. My edits are always assumed by myself as the best intentions of the wikia. My intentions are never to harm the wikia or to cause damage. I have always assumed good-faithed, and where other users feel I have not, I'm pleased to let them know I indeed have, it's just at this point a difference in opinion. As some, I am too knew, I'd to agree with them, I really am. As with my last RfA, which was a really immature decision on my behalf, I thank all users for their input. It's great to get the perspective of other users. It allows for your weaknesses to show and the motivation to improve. That is why this wikia is so great. It's community. Not all communities agree, not all communities support it's individuals, but a community is still a community, and I am really glad to be a part of it. Thanks again, and to DTM, Dragon, Whiplash, Azaz, or any other b'crat who reads this, please close this RfA. 16:04, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

This quote here explains myself. It explains the importance this wikia has to me, and the importance you users have to it. It explains my intentions, a lot of my beliefs, and who I am as a person. My goals are to better this wikia. Simple, it is that simple, to better this wikia.

In light of recent changes between then and now I feel I am better prepared. Since then, I have been a top candidate in a UotM, and helping to organizing the next Wikifest, and am ranked on our new Wikia Clan Chat. I have contributed to many Yew Grove Discussion where I have offered my opinions and feedback quite frequently. While in these discussions I tend to rule out as much bias from my opinions as possible and in majority tend to not get into heated discussions or arguments with other users. I have reverted much vandalism and have since then taken heed to the amount of times I assume good faith on a more frequent bases; whereas I simply respond with a warning rather then a quick jump the CVU. I have tried my hardest to make all the changes asked as mentioned in my previous RfA. I am always there for users in need and am often seen on the Clan Chat where I can be seen socializing with other users. I tend to promote the move of heated arguments off the clan chat and into another chat, and have since then used the clan chat to welcome walk-ins and to explain a bit about our wikia to them in an attempt to gain some more respected contributors to our wikia.

In regards to the recent string of Vandal's we have gotten, often I am one of the first to respond, however my methods of dealing with this are limited to my rollbacks rights. I was one of the first to respond to the CS string of attacks, and was the first to notice the Vandal Bot attacks. As I began to rollback, I knew this was a bot and my rollbacks were in vain. Having added a majority of sysops to my RuneScape character in such an event, and as no sysops were available, I quickly logged on and attained the help of any and all sysops logged on at that present time. If these kind of attacks are going to occur, and especially at random times, I feel that as a sysops, and being I am often logged on during the course of the night (as reflected by my work schedule), I can offer a more secure wikia in the event this is to continue. Our means of dealing with this upcoming and more advanced string of vandals is becoming more limited to our active sysops. Although we are doing a great job of maintaining control, I feel I can contribute to this.

In lighter side of things, I also have a project I have been wanting to tackle. Taking a look at the pages needing merging and you will see a significant amount in respects to Chat. I wish to clean this up, but require some moving, merging, and deleting, something that would be hard as a non-sysops.

Thanks for your consideration. I feel I can offer much, as I have done without these rights, however with, I can offer much more. Please let me know of any questions or concerns. Please address any and all things on this page, as if it fails, I can still reference and respond, and learn. Thanks again. 22:18, 4 February 2009 (UTC)

''I, Bonziiznob, accept this nomination for adminship. I have read the policies concerning administrators. I realize that this nomination may fail. If I do get community consensus, I promise not to abuse my powers because I realize that this is a serious offence and if the community finds that I have done so, my powers will be revoked and in extreme cases I could be given a community ban. Signed,

Support You really deserve it. 22:34, 4 February 2009 (UTC) Temporarily neutral - Kinda bugs me that you've had so many RfAs in such a small amount of time. I'll change my vote later on, but I would definitely trust you with sysop tools. 22:39, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
 * You know, it does kinda bug me too, and I was really wanting to hold off, but in light of the recent string of attacks, and as I am often on at night (when these attacks are most likely to occur), I do not want to be logged on a protected site with no involvement into it's clean up. Please trust me when I say I am in no hurry to get these privileges, but it would help at the present time. 22:46, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
 * I have no doubt that you have good intent, and I know that you'd do a great job as an admin. It's just that the amount of RfAs in such a short amount of time are keeping me from supporting, at least for now. 22:48, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
