A Word From A Current Crat

My reasoning for coming forward with this policy is simple: I am not running again for 'crat in June. I always take any office I take serious and try to live up to the call of duty, so rather than to leave you to clean up the mess I leave, I put my own mess into the waste basket before I take my hat and coat.

Looking at the last crat election the entire pool of eligible candidates consisted of 3 sys-ops, of whom one withdrew at the first opportunity, another had no edits for months and the third one was Boxy, who was the only one to make any kind of election possible. When I withdraw from the election as well, the pool will be even smaller.

As I don't see the sys-op team growing or their edit count going up anytime soon, we have to tackle this issue from a different angle: We have to reduce the requirements for the bureaucrat office to requirements fit for the reduced and ever-shrinking traffic on this wiki.

It's been something like three years since I've properly been active here, so taken anything I say with the appropriate helping of salt.
That said, I'm cautiously in agreement. The wiki (or the game) isn't going to get anymore active in the near future. If a crat can get voted in spite of such low activity, I don't really see a problem. I wouldn't mind making a requirement that crats must post on the 'crat promotion page that they are willing to take up the position if they get voted in, so somebody completely inactive isn't voted in.
