Suicidal Angel

General stuffs

• My first edit was back in May-ish of '07, so I've been here for a long time.
• Some 5000 or more edits total. History purge makes lieeeeeeees!
• In that time I've helped newbies beyond the WN spamming, helped shape a policy here and there, tried and failed to get my own policy through (Didn't have enough voters total, can you believe it? Made me wanna cry), reverted vandalism, some suggestions maintenance, along with over all maintenance everywhere, including the admin pages when possible for me.
• I've only been warned due to a frivolous case against myself in A/VB, and because of an edit that was out of pure fun with 73 back when there was a large amount of spamming going on in the wiki. Also, the edit in question is the reason I put up the frivolous case.
• My desire to become a Sysops would be simply because I like mops and buckets. Shit needs to be done, always will, it's a job that I can do and like it.
• It seems the biggest reason many of the community was against my last bid was because of my inactivity. I've been active again since early November of '08, and was only inactive from the start because of health issues. I'm here to stay until I start hacking up blood again. :D
• I know the guidelines and policies rather well, and if there's something I'm not sure on, then I'll voice my opinion on it, but not provide anything binding or ruling.

Recent problems with some of the Admin team

• I don't drink anymore, so I'm not going to get smashed and let a friend play on my account ;)
• I will own up to my actions, and not bug out if I screw up.
• I won't be bypassing all that pesky red tape. Even if it is pesky.

Ummmm...Needs moar words?

• I understand that the community changes over time, and will put my self up for review every six months should I be promoted. And should I break that word, I ask another sysops to do it for me, citing this bullet in my bid, thus invalidating any say against said review. If I'm not doing a good enough job, then I shouldn't be a sysops. Simple as that. If I'm not promoted, then disregard this, as I'm a pre-emptive idiot.

Again, let me know what I need to work on. -- dǝǝɥs oʇ ɯɐds: sʎɐʍ1ɐ! 01:42, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

• (Dammit, I thought you were Iscariot). I am, of course, in support. Might I add that Engel is a good, honest, friendly, humorous user. --  AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 01:44, 15 January 2009 (UTC)
  • I thought I'd say that the whole "we have enough sysops" just isn't true. You can never really have enough, and there should always be a sysops on at all times able to stop vandals. --  AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 19:11, 22 January 2009 (UTC)
• vouch - good contributor --People's Commissar Hagnat ^{talk mod} 01:53, 15 January 2009 (UTC)
• Against - I urge the candidate to reconsider his standing. Any running validates the current administration and belittles the will of the community. -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 03:11, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

  Vouch - Now that inevitable people who vote contrary to whatever I say are out of the way I can post my real opinion. I vouch for this candidate, and love his sense of timing ;) -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 01:36, 28 January 2009 (UTC)

  What a big ego you have grandma. --Karek^maps?! 02:45, 28 January 2009 (UTC)

• Vouch - Good contributor, friendly and would make a good janitor. Although I'm tempted to vote against because you are making us have two bids run at once ;P. Linkthewindow  Talk  03:22, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

And on a second read thorough, I must add that that's a tremendous risk your taking by putting yourself up for reevaluation every six months (somehow I missed that first time :/,) and only adds to my confidence :P. Linkthewindow  Talk  03:25, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

• Abstain - While I am sure that you would make a great sysop, I just don't think we need another right now. I think that in the current standing of the wiki, another sysop would only add to the confusion of the matters that are going down right now and won't do much good. I do not wish to vote against you however because, like I said, if people decide to vote you in I'm sure you will do a good job.--SirArgo ^Talk 03:26, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

• Vouch - After seeing how you acted on Talk:Umbrella Biohazard Containment Service/Umbrella, you have my full vote now!--SirArgo ^Talk 22:14, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

Third vouch received 03:25, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

• Abstain - As SirArgo WRT the whole not-needing-another-sysop thing, plus I feel like he's a little... erratic. --Cyberbob 04:18, 15 January 2009 (UTC)
• Vouch - Just saw the first bullet point under the Recent Problems heading. ;p --Cyberbob 08:14, 15 January 2009 (UTC)
• Vouch - I have much faith in this user.--Judge Karke, self-proclaimed Decider of Everything and Ruler of All 05:08, 15 January 2009 (UTC)
• Vouch - As karek. --WanYao 05:18, 15 January 2009 (UTC)
• Vouch there's nowt wrong with having a bunch of sops, and the Angels a good candidate. --Rosslessness^{Want a Location Image?} 08:12, 15 January 2009 (UTC)
• Vouch Always had a keen eye for what is right and a good humored way to point it out. Frankly the "Deletions Scandal" won you my vouch long ago--Honestmistake 08:22, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

  Just like Link I have just noticed something new in your bid... Under recent problems bullets you neglect to mention that you will not be staging a coup, does that mean its no longer recent enough or that we should be ready to hail a new wiki overlord?--Honestmistake 14:36, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

  Bah, fine, I won't be your new overlord either. Happy? :) -- dǝǝɥs oʇ ɯɐds: sʎɐʍ1ɐ! 15:05, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

  NO I demand a wiki overlord to crush the sysops and make boxy do our bidding!--Honestmistake 18:26, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

  Ummm....Shit. I really don't know how to reply to this one. :) -- dǝǝɥs oʇ ɯɐds: sʎɐʍ1ɐ! 18:36, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

  Don't bother then. Honest's attention whore factor jumps by an order of magnitude every time anything to do with a sysop occurs (which means basically constantly). --Cyberbob 22:28, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

  So says the Uber Troll :)

  Lighten up Bob, it was a joke and there is no point trolling me cos i just will not bite (though i may throw stuff and sulk) --Honestmistake 23:57, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

  DO HO HO HO --Cyberbob 00:31, 16 January 2009 (UTC).

  indentationwhat?--xoxo 23:08, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

• Vouch - As Link (except for being tempted to vote against). --Midianian^|T|DS|C:RCS| 12:14, 15 January 2009 (UTC)
• Vouch - Believe me, I was sure you were already a sysop :P --Janus ^talk 13:05, 15 January 2009 (UTC)
• Vouch - but you knew that anyway. Just to clarify my friend didn't actually play on the account. It was all me, he was just nearby loling, good luck with the sobriety though. --xoxo 13:15, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

  Monsieur Angel, sober for 1 and a half years!-- dǝǝɥs oʇ ɯɐds: sʎɐʍ1ɐ! 15:05, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

• Vouch - From what I have seen from him, he can be a good sysop.--Thadeous Oakley 16:21, 15 January 2009 (UTC)
• Vouch - We need a good sysop with a sense of humor. --Pestolence^(talk) 21:52, 15 January 2009 (UTC)
• vouch - for great fun when Iscariot brings misconduct against you. you know he will. No sysop is safe!--THE Godfather of Яesensitized, Anime Sucks ^{Yalk | W! U! WMM| CC CPFOAS LOE ZHU | Яezzens} 22:10, 15 January 2009 (UTC)
• Vouch - One of those people who should have been made a Sysop a long time ago and it's nice to have someone with a sense of humour around here :D. Your promise to be re-evaluated every 6 months is a brave thing to do and it removes any doubts I might have had about your promotion.--The General ^{T Sys U! P! F!} 22:15, 15 January 2009 (UTC)
• vouch - Anyone who has all vouches except for Iscariot gets an automatic vouch. Plus looking at the edit logs you do good wiki. Conndraka^{mod TAZM CFT} 22:17, 15 January 2009 (UTC)
• Vouch - But I expect gold in the basket. --Sonny Corleone ^{DORIS I jizzed in my pants pr0n} 02:57, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
• Vouch - only because he would never let me live it down. moar posts in the count to a million plz!----Sexualharrison 16:48, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
• ^ValidVoet - Never gonna give you up. _{Noet plz this iz an abstian. ■}^■ 18:25, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
• Vouch - Good sense of humor, nice guy, and great contributor to the wiki. --ZsL 22:49, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
• SA is well qualified and has an easy going personality. He'll make a fine addition to the current team, and should have gone for a promotion ages ago.-- Vista  T  16:27, 18 January 2009 (UTC)
• We might not get along well, but whatever. Have your silly vouch. It all means very little to me. As of now, anyways... --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 23:33, 19 January 2009 (UTC)
• Vouch - I'm practically a newbie, but my vouch is being added here because it's what I think, even though it won't be needed. Liberty 12:18, 20 January 2009 (UTC)
• Against I think he's an asshole and I don't trust his little butt buddy relationship with Iscariot. Especially since Iscariot wants SA to put him up for sysop. I have already given Cat 4 authorisation to certain users, yourself included, for the purposes of a serious bid if that is the will of the community. J3D's friends fucked him - I bet SA's friends will do the same. -- #99 ^DCC 23:55, 24 January 2009 (UTC)

  Feel what you will, but I must point out that I have almost no connection to Iscariot beyond that statement he made.

  Numbered stuffs: 1. Wouldn't nominate him if he asked, he should run for himself and take care of it himself, hell, I don't even know why he included me in that little bout, I barely know the guy other than the stuff on the admin pages. Only thing I said about him running that if he's serious, then his nominaters should wait. I'm sure his nominaters wouldn't feel too good seeing a dozen against bullets in less than an hour 2. My "friends" really only include Karek, Zombie Slayer, Vista, Saromu (Sonny), Hagnat, Gnome, and Cheese. None of them will really get me in trouble. They have their history, like Hag's and his dislike of red tape, and Gnome, who bailed after Jed's promotion, but that doesn't mean they're going to get me to screw up badly.--Suicidal Angel - Help needed? 00:16, 25 January 2009 (UTC)

• Vouch - You threw up blood? HAHAHAHAHA! Did you have to get surgery???--/~Rakuen~\^Talk I Still Love Grim 01:53, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
• He's been around this wiki as long as I remember (hardly surprising since we started around the same time), done a lot of good stuff here, and I'm pretty sure he can handle the ZOMG POWARZ. Go for it. ᚱᛁᚹᛖᚾᚨᚾᛏ 12:02, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
• Vouch - Good contributor, and has a lot of experience.-- Adward  18:07, 28 January 2009 (UTC)

Result

I don't think much needs to be said here to be honest. =) Promotion Accepted. Congratulations! -- Cheese 11:51, 29 January 2009 (UTC)
