|
| What can be said about a Hyperintelligent man such as DevilAsh. Well, if one were to take a mere 30 seconds to get to know him you will find out that:
| | ==Candidates Being Discussed== |
| *He owns his own apartment in England, which is a pretty monumental task since the world knows that apartments are for renting.
| | <!--- |
| *That he is a honor student in the field of psychology. So this tells me that on top of his ability to make a wiki a better place, he will do so with a flare of slick helpfulness and give our more suicidal members a place to turn when their A/VB and Arbitration cases make them feel hopeless.
| |
| *He has awesome hair, an amazing defined jawline. Some might classify this as arrogance, but arrogance is a flaw, the DevilAsh is perfect.
| |
| *Being English, he enjoys high tea. But he also have a love for coffee, showing how diverse he can be and willingness to accept all choices, no matter how hard.
| |
| *His favorite band is Brand New, and when I learned this, I had no idea who this band was... perhaps because they were brand new. But that wasn't what caught my eye. What caught my eye was his choice of spelling of the word "favorite." His purposeful use of the American spelling of the word gives us great insight into the mind of DevilAsh, telling us that he is accepting of all cultures and beliefs. Certainly this would include those who are into cross dressing.
| |
| *He is a staunch supporter of those afflicted with Seasonal Affective Disorder, a disorder which causes those who are without sunlight to fall into a deep depression, and has a campaign to end the embarrassment they face because of their anacroym.
| |
| *He does not own an MP3 player, which in today's society says a lot that he's got higher priorities even though he really, really wants one, he uses his resources and wealth to help those who are less fortunate than him (the irish).
| |
| *He also thinks glassjaw are an awesome band. He singles this band out specifically because he supports their humanitarian efforts providing hair nets to the less fortunate people of Latin America.
| |
| *He is also completely, utterly mad! Mad the direction the world is taking in regards to febris e causa ignota, otherwise know is the Fever of Unknown Origin. His dedication to finding a cure for this disorder which afflicts literally hundreds of people around the globe. To this day, the United Nations continues to ignore his calls and letters about this blight upon the world's citizens. Imagine the catastrophic events that would occur if this went viral.
| |
| Needless to say, this is just a sampling of all the qualities that DevilAsh possesses showing his true character which he might be too humble to state for himself, it doesn't take a rocket scientist (a profession he sought out before he was inspired to help others) to figure out after spending any time with this wonderful human being. Sure, he doesn't have the "guideline recommended" number of edits, but really, we all know the guidelines aren't written in stone, otherwise they would say "must" not "should." Sometimes its good to be understated. I would much rather have someone take their time and make thoughtful edits, rather than bombard the system with unnecessary changes and useless rhetoric to bump their status like some recent members of the sysop team.
| |
| DevilAsh's sense of justice is blind. That is why he was named chief biscuit of RedRum. He has the ability to make non-discriminatory decisions for the good of the group, and that can apply here.
| |
| He is also a friend to the bearded and the undead, and I have been told by Suburban Ed when asked to describe DevilAsh:
| |
| {{quote|2=<&Suburban_Ed> Great kisser|3=[[User:Suburban_Ed|Suburban Ed]] from IRC}}
| |
| That is quite an endorsement.
| |
| DevilAsh is your friend. DevilAsh will take you to the next level. DevilAsh will make you better. DevilAsh will make you less oily.
| |
| And that is why, I, Godfather Anime Sucks, endorse this bid and invite you all to share a story or a moment in your support for DevilAsh for sysop, because he kicks Ash! --{{User:AnimeSucks/Sig}} 21:48, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

| ====Accepted====
| |
| I was told to accept this, and so I have. But first, let me try and explain a little why I am accepting this:
| |
| It's been at least half a year now since I have seriously thought about applying for sysop. (I highly recommend reading my thoughts). Most of what I thought there still stands. I haven't changed that much as a person since then, and if I would tell you about my history, or who I am I would be pretty much repeating my previous ideas.
| |
| Ever since then I have continued my activity, in again most of the drama-prone areas. And drama there has been, some of which I was personally involved. Still I handled myself during those times well enough I believe. Again, referring to my old thought, meta-experience in A/A, A/VB and A/M since 2008. I'll say what I think, directly and honestly. There have been some moments, especially in my troubled past, where I was a bit too compassionate leading me into (personal) conflicts but I put those times past me. I try to be open to criticism, but in the end the skill that I deem most important to have in drama sections, is the ability to get along with people you just had an incredible heated discussion with. To overcome each others disagreements is the key to any sort of harmony and respect needed in a community of any sorts. This issue was certainly something in the last six months. If you want to compare me to the other sysops, I have somewhat common ground with probably...Thadeous Oakley (hope he doesn't feel offended now) minus a lot of (life) experience. Not because I necessarily always agree with him (I don't) but more in his approach of things. Moving on:
| |
| I chipped in here and there with some paper work contributions. Deletions, protections, created a policy in my mind (that was eventually shot down by my other mind) fixing some stuff. However, as a janitor these things were mostly minor, and certainly not anything spectacular. I'll always do my share of this stuff, as regular user and as potential sysops, but I'm not going sugarcoat this, I'm nothing more then average as a janitor.
| |
| Not much has changed, and you may ask yourself if that's good time considering my last mind-bid failed. Well, I think I did actually almost nailed a promotion last time. Grown a bit wiser too. Not to mention my vandal history is now...history. My last infraction being in March 11, I think I have overcome most of my devious flaws. Still not perfect, never will too, but I think I can handle the job and responsibilities.

| *'''For''' - I am proud to be the first person for vouch for you, DevilAsh. You truly inspired me to put my grudge on hold and donate to the red cross to help out the relief in Japan. You eased my fear of the conspiracy that all the money would go towards anime-related endeavors. --{{User:AnimeSucks/Sig}} 21:48, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

| |
| *:Again, the criterion isn't written in stone. They are not "must have" requirements, otherwise the verbage would reflect this. Also, removing such a bid, would constitute bias, as per some of your comments in dealing with DevilAsh in the past, and I would assume bad faith.--{{User:AnimeSucks/Sig}} 22:04, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

| |
| *'''Strongly Against''' - Although Anime made many good points, the spelling of "favourite" as "favorite" is unacceptable practice. As, when I get up tomorrow morning, DevilAsh will be permanently banned for this vile utterance, it makes no sense to promote him to system operator.--{{User:Yonnua Koponen/signature}} 22:46, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

| *'''A/VB''' - As Cheese. --{{User:TripleU/Sig}} 23:01, 21 March 2011 (UTC)
| |
| *'''Fore!''' '''For''' '''4''' - DevilAsh is actually a lot smarter, openminded, and perceptive than most people allow themselves to think about him. To his credit, he is not a current member of the SysOps team, which I think says a lot about him. --{{User:DT/Signature}} 23:05, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

| *'''Strong Vouch'''- I've known Ash since before I was babah Mimey, He's a good bloke, still in game after all these years. He has the ability to make non-discriminatory decisions and is very open minded. Temperament is level headed. I've seen it in action.
