RuneScape:Requests for adminship/Dave Lopo

Dave Lopo
Hi! I am nominating myself for Forum Adminship because I think I can use the tools. I'm no one for going on with the big long reasons for nomming because it feels the same as talking in front of a crowd and I can never think of anything. So, uh, yeah. Let us begin this process... 01:48, March 10, 2010 (UTC)

''I, Dave Lopo, accept this nomination for adminship. I have read the policies concerning administrators. I realise that this nomination may fail. If I do get community consensus, I promise not to abuse my powers because I realise 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,'' 01:51, March 10, 2010 (UTC).

Questions for the nominee
1. What administrative work do you intend to take part in? Helping other users with creating polls, moving threads and the like. Also removing and locking spam or inappropriate threads. The general aide and cleanup supplied by Forum Admins.

'''2. Have you been in any conflicts over the forums 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 believe I have. If I have, please remind me, and I will address it as best I can.


 * Note that I edited the questions section to fit an RfF as opposed to an RfA.

Discussion
Pending, leaning towards support - We do need some more forum admins. I'd like to hear some more points from the community before I make a decision though. 10:47, March 10, 2010 (UTC)

Mild oppose - We don't need any more forum admins. 14:21, March 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * This wiki should never oppose based on the current number of sysops being sufficient. Base it on the individuals qualifications.--Degenret01 15:10, March 10, 2010 (UTC)

Weak oppose - I feel that your reasons for requesting forum adminship are insufficient. Sorry. I'd really like to support, but I just can't. 23:23, March 10, 2010 (UTC)

Neutral - You have not said any reasons why you feel you deserve this. Until you do, I'm stay neutral. 23:42, March 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * Well, I'll try as best I can: I've seen several times useless topics that go for hours with apparently no admin noticing. I am on the forums very frequently, generally visiting it every 10 minutes or so when I'm online, and I think that if I had the tools, I could use them when I needed to. 01:40, March 11, 2010 (UTC)

Support - I believe Telos is right. A majority of our forum admins seem to be inactive. Out of all of them, only Jedi and Dtm seem to be moderately active; I rarely, if at all, see D4k (who only recently left ), Soldier (who seems active in wiki discussions but not the forums), Ilyas (pretty much gone), Colo (haven't seen him in quite a while), or Randommelon (who only a few days ago posted for the first time in ages, but I don't know if he plans to stay or not). These are just my observations though (and sorry if I left anyone out). Personally, I think we could use a new, active, and trustworthy forum admin. 02:53, March 12, 2010 (UTC)

Support - Per Tien. 03:40, March 12, 2010 (UTC)
