:::One of the best things I ever did while living in the dorms was to prop my door open (especially during move-in week and the first few weeks of the semester), crank up the volume on my TV just a bit so that it could be heard easily from the hallway without being too loud, sit down in a place where people could see me easily from the hall, and then play Ocarina of Time or some other classic game that has music or sounds everyone has heard a bajillion times. I swear, every time Zelda's Lullaby played someone new would walk in and go, "Is that Ocarina or Time? Oh, and hi, I'm <name>." Easiest way to meet new people and make friends. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 05:23, 22 August 2011 (BST)

Meh. You are pussing out. I went through uni in the worst moments of this wiki history. Yes, I failed a couple of classes cuz of that (and some other RL issues, mostly involving beer and girls, LOL) but currently the wiki is a nice and drama-less place to be (which is boring, actually). You should stay, and only leave the wiki if it started to hinder your studies. --<small>[[User:Hagnat|hagnat]]</small> 14:27, 15 August 2011 (BST)

This page is for system operators to request a demotion of status, or for enaction of demotion due to long-term inactivity. The act of demotion is restricted to those with bureaucrat status, and as such system operators will need to request their demotion here.

Guidelines for Demotion Requests

Request

System operators who wish to request demotion must consider these things before applying.

  • Reason for demotion - As demotions cannot be reversed unless the user goes through promotions page again, the user is asked to make sure that they are making the correct decision when applying for demotion.

After a system operator has submitted his or her demotion request, the active Bureaucrats will review it, and after reaching a unanimous decision, choose to either demote the system operator or deny his or her request. After action has been taken, the request will be moved to the archive.

Inactivity

Crystal Clear app xmag.png main article: Policy Text

  • A sysop that hasn't made any edit in four months will be warned, on their talk page, by a Bureaucrat, that they face demotion of their sysop powers in one week, if they remain inactive.
  • One week after the warning has been placed, dependant on the actions of the sysop, the Bureaucrat will decide whether or not to carry out the demotion.
  • This is to avoid, for example, the unlikely case of a sysop simply making a single edit with the aim of avoiding the demotion.
  • The Bureaucrat is trusted and bound to make a fair decision, and not to demote a sysop who clearly demonstrates a return to activity on the wiki.
  • Any demonstrable abuse of this power by a Bureaucrat, however unlikely, could (as with any other abuse of specific powers) be grounds for a Misconduct case.
  • If the sysop makes no response at all to the warnings, they must be demoted.

Requests for demotion still needing to be processed

Effective on 1st September 2011, I shall be resigning as System Operator. It was always my plan to resign after my second term, especially given that I’ll soon be starting University. I’ve had a good time working on this wiki over the past year or so, and I’ll continue to hang around. Maybe, if my course isn’t too difficult I’ll reapply some time, but at the moment I don’t think it’s likely. Cheers Donkeys and Donkettes, it’s been a blast!

Aww. You sure, Yon? ~Vsig.png 00:10, 15 August 2011 (UTC)
Yep, I've been sure of this for a long time. I'll continue to sysop through to midnight going in to the 1st of September, but then I expect a demotion going pretty much from then.--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 00:11, 15 August 2011 (BST)
Understandable. College/Uni can be demanding. Hope you'll find time in your schedule to check the game/wiki. Thanks for donating your time here as an op. ~Vsig.png 00:20, 15 August 2011 (UTC)
Yeah, well, I'll still be around fro the most part. E.g. I'll be setting up the MMI quite soon.--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 00:21, 15 August 2011 (BST)
Right. Let me know if you still need help with anything. ~Vsig.png 00:31, 15 August 2011 (UTC)
Let's have a moment of silence for the demotion of a great wiki lege-bw-pfftttt-hahahahaha! I couldn't say that with a straight face! But all silliness aside, you will be sorely missed, Yon. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 01:40, 15 August 2011 (BST)

Right, well unless you state otherwise beforehand, you'll be demoted on the 1st. Good luck with the uni thing. I found it was best to use nostalgic children tv shows as an ice breaker in freshers week. Worked a treat. Oh, and vodka. --"Workshed" 13:55, 15 August 2011 (BST)
Damn Straight. Btw, my plan to be demoted by Boxy is working perfectly.--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 14:11, 15 August 2011 (BST)
C'mon, Yon, I promised you I'd demote you first! Don't ruin that! Tongue :P In all seriousness, all the best with the course, good working with you, and hope to see you around the traps. ᚱᛁᚹᛖᚾ 12:01, 21 August 2011 (BST)

Yeah, but if I'm not a sysop then I can start creating drama again and make the place a more fun place for everybonks.--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 17:24, 15 August 2011 (BST)
