{{vndl|Misanthropy}}

I've been thinking about this for a few weeks, was going to put it off but I can't really see a reason to. I've been active here for about 8-9 months, I guess, and apart from personal upkeep of group and user stuff, I'm mostly concerned with weighing in on suggestions, scheduled deletions, and all that community niceness. I'd like to be able to take a more pro-active role in tackling vandals, doing the deletions that're scheduled, and probably tackling the merged locations, and sysop access would save a bunch of time in the latter. I'm currently a sysop over at the Teletraan I Transformers wiki, so I'm not new to the interface, and I'll not be fucking about with buttons I'm not really meant to. Also you ''know'' you need someone to be the dashing face of this operation. {{User:Misanthropy/Sig}} 06:48, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

::Aw, shucks. If you're referring to the whole wiki/wikia split, it's a petty heap of shit that I avoided from day one, since it was the kind of drama that no amount of giving-a-care would help. As for your questions, first answer is to attempt to get a more active base for detailing recent events, as the wiki currently seems like the obituary for a fun game from a few years back, rather than one that's still very active. A more active userbase on the wiki would also increase turnover for things like suggestions and policy discussions, and could be drummed up with threads on the major forums (Brainstack, PKA, Hub, Barhah, etc). The answer to your second question is (IPA) ''[ʒʌ ʒoʊ ʒʌ ʒoʊ ʒiː]'' {{User:Misanthropy/Sig}} 09:15, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

*'''Weak <s>Against</s> Keep''' - I don't actually see why you need sysop buttons; since you mainly do user/group work, it seems like you'd be getting op abilities just for the purpose of having them. I'll change my vote to an abstain or something stronger if you tell me what you plan to do for the wiki.{{User:Lelouch/sig}} 16:27, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

*'''Vouch''' - This was almost an abstain. I've definitely seen you around, and in places like suggestions, I've found myself saying "As Misanthropy" more than any other person, since it seems that our opinions align on a lot of things. That said, I haven't really been witness to your presence in some of the areas you're interested in, since I've only just started watching the drama parts of the wiki, so I don't know how you'll handle them (my fault, not yours). That said, I do trust your opinions to be well-considered and to look at the situation from all angles, so you have my support. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 22:38, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

*:Alright, I've just run through your last 500 edits to check I'm right, and I drummed out that 265 of your last 500 edits were on your own group or user page. Or their talks, templates, etc. Now, you might get a weak vouch out of me from that, but the fact that 105 of those edits were made shortly after DDR's comment that you needed less user comments makes me kind of less inclined to.--{{User:Yonnua Koponen/signature‎}} 11:02, 22 November 2009 (UTC)
