Hello DsiPaint/WiiPaint users,
Today I'm here to show you how to become an admin, the REAL way, from learning from other experienced users, and my one year anniversary on here nearing, I can show you the REAL way to become an admin. Plus, yes I do know there has been a bunch of other blogs like this.
Rule #1. Do not act like XTremeManX123 (Random Name) acts in this Chatroom conversation.
XTremeManX123: Hi admins
TwistedN: XTremeMan is a SUCK UP
[Chatroom goes on, ignoring XTremeManX123]
XTremeManX123 is being ignored so is leaving now
Sitfatj: [Censored]
XTremeManX123: Don't say that sitfatj thats disrespectful.
[What's really going on in XTremeManX123's head is "Maybe if I make sure rules are followed I'll become admin"]
XTremeManX123: [Censored]
XTremeManX123: Oh gee I'm sorry I meant to say duck.
XTremeManX123
So do you see what I mean? This is what most wanna-be admins do, which is just lowering they're chance of BEING admins.
Rule #2: Dont Beg, just don't.
XTremeManX123: CN I B ADMN?
*HullBreach: You must earn it
XTremeManX123: HOW DO U NOW U HVE NVR BN N ADMN
XTremeManX123
Do you see what begging does? It could lead you to mistakes as bad as that one.
Rule #3: Never try to be admined like I was.
Gamer44 (To HullBreach): Um..Well...I've been here since last spring, and I think I deserve adminship

See what I mean? I tried to make my access to adminship smoothly, but it turned out I never deserved it at all. My brother legit hacked my account and got me de-admined, but I wouldn't of deserved it either way.
Rule #4: If you do become admined like I did, don't be a n00b.
[HullBreaches mail]
Gamer44: ZOMG TWINLKE SAIYD ASS
Gamer44: ZOMG SKUNKMAN SAID MEAN
I was just being plain stupid when I sent those, I even though those where going to get me a PROMOTION!
Rule #5: Be humble, nice, and respective
Newcomer1: Hello
Newcomer2: Hello, nice to meet you
Newcomer1: Thank you, nice to meet you, too!
Say that instead of
Newcomer: Hello
Veteran: Oh my god a noob.
Because then, you never know if the "Newcomer" is really a good friend or not, it might even be an alt of a admin/overlord, so don't mess up there!
Blogs only like these only make it seem that everyone can become an admin, but that's not true, they're roughly 30 admins and what, 50,000 users? see where I'm going? Your giving users hope that they will one day when most of the time that's not true. /endrant
Of course, the BEST thing to do imo is to just act normally and not even try for adminship. I mean, let's face it, is being an admin really all that amazing? I think it's sad that some people actually want it that badly.
accepted, reason: Hm, I saw the title an I was thinking 'another "how to be an admin" blog, I'll probably deny just because of the sheer volume of these' But, this is different. It's good...good job.
