Sutecs Request
I ACCIDENTILY changed Spongebobrocks09 to mine, but I changed it. PLZ dont ban me or anything.~Sutec

Stricter
I think we should be a little more srticter on sysop requests because if we get a ton of new sysops this wiki's gonna be really chaotic. Bluehero

Ok, you must have over 400 Main edits and over 1,000 total edits to be a sysop. -- Talk to me! Please! I'm lonely... 14:20, 4 February 2009 (UTC)

Well, I didn't mean to make a rule where you have to have over so many edits to be a sysop, because a lot of great editors like Robbsi never went over 1,000 edits and were great admins. I was thinking that we should only make the best editors sysops and make sure that they have a good amount of mainspace edits first. Bluehero

I agree. -- Talk to me! Please! I'm lonely... 14:30, 4 February 2009 (UTC)

ARGH! I have to type this up again! I LOST MY PREVIOUS ONE! ARGH! CURSE IT! Anyway: I'm back with a little edit. I haven't rejoined but I was checking it out and I've decided to leave a comment. Blue is right, Metal is wrong (slightly). It should be much stricter. Much much stricter. We have a sysop to user ratio of 1:4! It's crazy! Bonkers! It should be 1:10 or 1:15! It really should be sorted out. Plus, it's not about having at least 1000 edits. That's truly incorrect. It's about trust and experience. I truly believe I shouldn't have become a sysop. I should have had much more experience. I became a sysop after three months here, Metalmanager after two. It's mad. You should be promoted with at least a year of experience. Yes, I had already been editing for six months before on other wikis, and yes I did have a breif sense of know-how, but this is in induvidual wiki. You can't be promoted because of edits. Every other wiki has sysops with 2000 edits but normal users with like 5000 edits. It's about trust. To gain trust from the wiki not edits. Robbsi is a perfect example. He was the best sysop ever. Bluehero is absolutely right. He had like 600 edits but still a bureaucrat. I remember, because I checked this out a few months before I started editing. Robbsi was still here. If I was still editing here, I would have that "New Start" template on my page, that AG and AquaJet have. Then again, such stupid use of templates. Templates shouldn't be used for that. They're supposed to be used for marking pages for deletion or if they were nominated for something. Yes, the odd userbox is okay, but not that. TS has gone over his head with "dictatorship" and we have webmasters! Wikis are here to promote a sense of equality while educating people. We have a webmaster let alone the fact that we have two! I hope you understand, and I'll hopefully be coming back one day, but with this sense of attitude from the wiki I'm starting to doubt it. -- TЙГЭPHO3Ь  ( Chat| Edits| Vandals) 17:18, 4 February 2009 (UTC)

Does no one understand that the "Dictatorship" thing was a JOKE! It was to show all the people that made him delete the laws and quit that he was ready to take on what ever they had up their sleeves. I do agree about the trust instead of edits but we can't just make someone with 1 edit a sysop, can we? No, but, we couldn't just make someone one with 1,000000 edits but no experience what-so-ever. We should make people sysops when they have experience in club penguin, have editing skills, have a reasonable amount of edits and be trusted enough that we can actually make them one. -- Talk to me! Please! I'm lonely... 18:15, 4 February 2009 (UTC)

I agree with tigernose except I think a year of expierence is way too much. Robbsi actually quit after a year of editing. We just need to make only the best editors sysops. A lot of editors on this wiki just edit user pages and barely edit mainspace pages and then requests to be a sysop. But I do think we need webmasters because we need some kind of leadership, I just don't think they should have as much power. Bluehero

Crazy
This is crazy. Some users who barely have any mainspace edits are actually getting "for" votes just because they're friends with people on this wiki. I think we have got to be a lot more stricter on sysop promotions because if we don't this wiki is going to be ruined. Oh and I think that metal is a great editor but if we have three webmasters this wiki will be extremely chaotic. Bluehero

I've put up a Co-webmaster request. Not Webmaster request! -- Talk to me! Please! I'm lonely... 22:10, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

What's the difference? Bluehero

Well, if I'm a Co-webmaster that means I'm helping the current ones. -- Talk to me! Please! I'm lonely... 22:14, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

Oh ok. But since we have two wemasters I don't think they really need a co-webmaster. Im not trying to be mean or anything, I'm just saying. But my main point was about the people who barely have any mainspace edits actually getting "for" votes from their friends. Bluehero

Yeah. We do need to be more srticed. I mean, just yesterday, I turned down a sysop request from my Cp girlfriend!! Now, if I were a new user, I would have said yes, but, I remember my BCOOT (Bureaucrat Oath of Trust) That I wrote, and, thy followed and remembered. -- Talk to me! Please! I'm lonely... 22:23, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

The reason I voted neatrul on A-Kongs request was because I wasn't 100% against it, I just wasn't sure. And 6 months to be a rollback is insane! If we were that strict we would only have maybe one or two admins! Robbsi quit after just a year of editing and he was a sysop long before then. I think we should be stricter but you're kinda going overboard. Bluehero

It's not insane Bluehero. Every wiki is like that. Robbsi was given it much earlier, like we were given earlier too. The bureaucrats at the time weren't stricter, and I have to admit, they were looking for more users but they gave it to him too early. 6 months is just right, if not a bit long, but you should have a look at other wikis (that have no affiliation with this one). You'll see the difference. -- TЙГЭPHO3Ь  ( Chat| Edits| Vandals) 13:30, 14 February 2009 (UTC)

Just wondering...
The A-Kong speaking. If Metalmanager became a sysop after two months, how come Tigernose said I can't become a rollback until two months. Also he said it would normally be six months! Can someone explain this please?

6 months is an estimate, I became one because of my experience, and, I may not have had alot of it, but my edits were, as they said, "amazing". You can become a rollback after about...1 month or less, no one can really tell you how long it's going to take, but, you need a little bit more edits and more experience here. -- Talk to me! Please! I'm lonely... 09:36, 14 February 2009 (UTC)

OK then. I'll try again, errm, March 15th. Thanks for all your help.  The A-Kong  Talk 2 me!  09:44, 14 February 2009 (UTC)

You don't need to try again then, keep your request up and when you have enough edits and experience, people will start voting 'for'. -- Talk to me! Please! I'm lonely... 09:47, 14 February 2009 (UTC)

I only said that because the CPW is different. They allow userrights to come at earlier stages. I'm totally opposed to this but I can't do anything about it, but still you should wait a month or two. Metal had a lot of edits, and I already had 6 months of experience on other wikis, but I still think we should have been promoted later. But good luck A-Kong! -- TЙГЭPHO3Ь  ( Chat| Edits| Vandals) 13:23, 14 February 2009 (UTC)

I think that we should promote people not because of how many edits they have (But they do need a decent amount of mainspace edits and not just user and user talk edits), but because of the quality of their edits and how much expierence they have on this wiki. And I think we should remove some of the requests that have been up for a few weeks and still don't have any for votes because there are a lot of outdated requests. Bluehero

Honestly, I'm surprised that I didn't get loads of against votes.  The A-Kong  Existence is pointless!  20:15, 14 February 2009 (UTC)

I'm starting to think Bluehero is the best user to ever grace this wiki. He's totally right. What we need to do is make an archive for votes older than 2 months. There must be requirments as well. If we want to make it fairer, we could have a nomination system rather than people putting themselves up. I suggest looking here, for the R&C's adminship requests system. -- TЙГЭPHO3Ь  ( <font face="Tahoma">Chat| <font face="Tahoma">Edits| <font face="Tahoma">Vandals) 20:54, 15 February 2009 (UTC)

Idea About Promotions
I have an idea about promotions. Since some of this wikis promblems came from people becoming sysops when other admins didn't want them to be I thought we could have rules for promoting users that we could put on the bureaucrats how-to-guide. So if a bureaucrat wanted to promote someone they would have to follow these rules:
 * They would have to make sure that the user has enough for votes on the requests for adminship page but if they had even one against vote from an admin then they would have to ask the other bureaucrats first.
 * If a bureaucrat thinks that a user should be an admin that hasn't put up a request then they should put Template:Promotion-Message on their talk page and if they say yes then the bureaucrat should ask the other bureaucrats what they think and if they all agree the user gets promoted.

What do you guys think? Bluehero

Awesome idea!

P.S: Thanks for using my template in your idea!

-- Metalmanager  The   Hedgehog  22:18, 17 February 2009 (UTC)

Np. Do you think we should go ahead and put it on the b-crats page or wait to see what the other admins think? I already told Barkjon about it a few weeks ago and he thought it was a good idea too. Bluehero

Im gonna go ahead and add this to the b-crats guide since tigernose, metal, and barkjon all think it's a good idea. If any of the bureaucrats disagree just rollback it. Bluehero

Is 100 main edits (315 edits overall) enough for a rollback?-- Ced 1214 CLICK HER  E 19:34, 14 March 2009 (UTC)

No, you need about 150 main. -- 21uɐɟɟɐʇs Count to 15 !''' 20:03, 14 March 2009 (UTC)

ok-- Ced 1214 CLICK HER  E 20:05, 14 March 2009 (UTC)

To be a rollback, you don't need any certain amount of edits. You just have to be a decent editor who can use the powers wisely. Bluehero
