The next bureaucrat election will start on 1 April 2010, at 0:11 or something for [[User:DanceDanceRevolution|DDR's]] position. I'm probably wrong, so someone should correct me. --{{User:Zombie slay3r/Signature}} 00:43, 5 January 2010 (UTC)

#Since his promotion, Misanthropy has been one of the only constants on the admin team. Boxy is usually always around to help but since his uncharacteristic absence Mis's presence has been greatly valued by me. I like the stuff Ross has been doing, but as a crat I had to be present on UDWiki even when I didn't really want to, I would probably trust Mis a bit more to stick around. --{{User:DanceDanceRevolution/sig3}} 02:08, 1 April 2010 (BST)

#: Ooh. A question. Personally I feel its a much larger step between regular user and sysop, than between sysop and Crat. The ability to promote/demote users is one of the most open processes on the wiki, it should be about community input. The buttons that can cause real damage like checkuser and delete are already at your disposal. As for attitude Have a look at my own votes on pretty much every sysop bid, or the projects I'm currently running. Basically I try to encourage more people to get involved in the daily life of the wiki. Crats have more power, but they have to earn that right. I don't feel you can change your attitude when you become a crat, its not about how you treat the community but how the community perceives you. --{{User:Rosslessness/Sig}} 16:49, 2 April 2010 (BST)
