User:Suicidalangel

(Talk | Contribs)

I'm putting Suicidalangel up for evaluation as per his biannual promise to the community.

SA has been a sysop for 6 months, and has been a member of the community for years longer. He's been a crat for almost 3 months. As a good user does, he's helped shape/create a few policies here and there in the past, and has mostly a cool head when it comes to drama. He is often active, and always puts his all into helping out with the wiki, in all its parts.

When he can't make it to the computer because of real-life issues, he makes a continued effort to ensure his responsibilities are met punctually through other users. This evaluation bid is an example. He takes this place seriously and has always tried to help out users that need it.

SA's bit

Sorry everyone for having this go on while I'm still a 'crat, but not only did I make a promise to do it, you all knew about it before you voted me into that office. Not my fault. :P

Now, to add on to what DDR said, I don't always put my all into every part of the community. That's simply not possible for me, nor would I try to butt into an area that's best left to someone who's better at it. Like Danger Reports. That's a place I try to avoid as much as possible, because while I'm pretty decent at coding and doing the mindless tasks associated with that area, I know others, like Rooster, are better. None the less, I do try to come and do what I can when I can. But we're all human, so a lot of things don't always happen as planned. I've got a few policies up, and a few more in the burner (also known as a misplaced flash drive) that will be put up as soon as the right conditions are met (read as: when I have more time). Tryin' to be a bit more active on the Dev. sug. page. Though I'm already wanting to quit using it again. ><

I admit that I don't get as much done as everyone else does when it comes to moving, deleting, and protecting pages, but I do have to say in my defence that their seems to be a lot more activity around here during my sleepy tiem than there is when I'm up. Damn aussies and brits. :/

If you have any questions, ask.

Also, if anyone is confused as to the procedures of this, it's pretty simple. I either keep my status as 'op, and current 'crat for the rest of my term, or I get demoted from both. Then another 'crat vote comes up. Nothing to it amirite?

Oh, and sorry about it being a teeny bit late. I had to have DDR do it because I was at work from 2 pm to 3 am. :( --Mr. Angel, Help needed? 00:26, 31 July 2009 (BST)

• Vouch - As always, for me, a vouch comes with trust. I trust SA. --ϑϑℜ 07:42, 30 July 2009 (BST)

  Thanks for doing this DDR, but wouldn't it have been better off to wait until SA isn't a 'crat any more (so one user doesn't have to make the decision?) Linkthewindow  Talk  07:45, 30 July 2009 (BST)

  He asked me to do this at this time. He'll be adding his own paragraph to the bid tomorrow. --ϑϑℜ 07:48, 30 July 2009 (BST)

  I was sure he would anyway, but I'm still not sure if it's a good idea :/. Linkthewindow  Talk  07:56, 30 July 2009 (BST)

  You should talk to him then. I am simply fulfilling his request, as he wants his evaluation bid in on time. In US it's still the 29th. --ϑϑℜ 07:59, 30 July 2009 (BST)

  I know, and I doubt I'll convince him now (especially considering this bid is already under way. It's just that I don't like the idea that one crat can evaluate the other one (without any outside input from another crat,) and they'll be confusion in the (rather unlikely) event that he gets demoted.

  Boxy and grim I'm pretty sure have promoted or judged people on their own before.--Mr. Angel, Help needed? 00:28, 31 July 2009 (BST)

• Vouch - Although, if he gets demoted... and DDR gets banned then it would be Nubis' time to shine! Yeah, it's gonna be a vouch for the greater good.--– Nubis ^NWO 13:17, 30 July 2009 (BST)

• Vouch - SA's unexplained vote on a contentious Misconduct case leaves me with questions. Care to elaborate?--_GANG Giles Sednik _CAPD 23:46, 30 July 2009 (BST)

  Whenever I leave a vote blank, it's because either my vote itself explains how I feel (a la Suggestions) or I feel no need to make an input because another person has made my points somewhere else. I've never had much trouble with that game plan on any other page than suggestions, but if everyone feels it's a problem (I hope not. More work for me. :/) then I suppose I could always add a short little describer even if my point has been made already.--Mr. Angel, Help needed? 00:24, 31 July 2009 (BST)

  You fail to see the importance of committing to an opinion. Vouch, because you're honest and fair. -10 points until you grow some balls.--_GANG Giles Sednik _CAPD 00:44, 31 July 2009 (BST)

  Really? This is the best you could come up with? Not creating a wall of text in his vote makes you angry. Wow. I wish all the trolls were as lame as you. --– Nubis ^NWO 07:00, 1 August 2009 (BST)

  As near as I can make out it was initially a joke, and it turned "serious" when Wan started blowing his top. Cyberbob  Talk  04:32, 1 August 2009 (BST)

  you can try to dismiss it as me "freaking out" all you like, whatever makes you feel better. but that doesn't change the fact that are a lot of users who think there are some big problems with certain people on the sysop team. that's all i need to say, i think. --WanYao 06:03, 1 August 2009 (BST)

  Basically I find the implication that the wiki is your personal source of amusement and that you are somehow "above" it really kind of lame. There are much better schticks out there that don't make you look like a twat. Cyberbob  Talk  14:49, 3 August 2009 (BST)

  err you kind of misinterpreted me. The i want dramas bit was just me being lame, i dont even read most of the drama on the wiki these days, it comes with too many words. I genuinely want more ops to do this because i think its a good idea. Its just a pointless exercise when SA does it, not that that means he shouldn't. He still should, but the rest should follow suit. If, having explained that, your comment still stands well fair enough.--xoxo 14:52, 3 August 2009 (BST)

  Like DDR said then, if you want more ops to do it you should get involved with Akule's policy and help it become suitable for voting on. Cyberbob  Talk  14:57, 3 August 2009 (BST)

  Help make Akule's policy discussion go as well as possible and you will have your dramas. --ϑϑℜ 14:44, 3 August 2009 (BST)
