Board Thread:News and Announcements/@comment-30134917-20190517172650

Hey guys, it's Gary. Yesterday, I finally accepted the role of an admin on the site after about three years or so. This is just an announcement to other admins and users on the site that I'm an admin now, so if anyone needs help with something feel free to ask me. I'm hoping to be a good admin and not be the kind who just forgets they're an admin and doesn't help others with their problems or the kind who just deletes pages because they personally don't like them.

And now that I'm an admin I feel like I'm allowed to say this, this is just a message to other admins, you shouldn't make your friends and family admins just because they're your friends and family. I've noticed a lot of people who were made an admin within their first year on the site just because another admin likes them. Picking someone just because you like them is a terrible way of choosing an admin. For example, my brother, I love him but I can say for certain he would be a very, very bad admin.

None of this message was directed at anyone in particular, so I'm very sorry if you took any of this personally. And if I don't turn out to be a good admin, every other admin on this site has my permission to remove my rights.
