Hello, everyone. It's time again for me to write a Miscellaneous blog. The last one I did was an apology to the community. This time I wasn't sure what would fit into miscellaneous more than any other category, so instead of coming up with an appropriate subject I'm just going to fudge this a bit and try to keep things vague. Let's just call this an interview. You can go ahead and cite this as my first open admission of half-assing a blog. It was bound to happen eventually. Me admitting it, that is. I've been half-assing blogs since wayyyyy before this. Anyway, let's get started.

The Glory of Adminship

For a long time users have wanted to be blessed with admin powers, but only a few have been lucky enough to be hand chosen by our supreme and holy Overlords to wach over and protect the community. For the first time ever, real admins will share information and their first hand experience with being an admin. To protect the admin's identities I won't be using the actual usernames. Instead I'll be using clever aliases. Now for the questions.

QUESTION 1: How did you first become an admin?

Cabbage: I asked Skunkman how to become an admin and he said "Get lost" and that logging off for a year would do it. So I did, and here I am a year later.

BunMan: I became admin after I soaked my 3DS in salt water for twelve hours. Someone told me that's how you upgrade anything.

PancakeLord: Back when everyone's admin powers were listed on their profile there was a checkbox next to each listed power. All I did was click on them REALLY hard. Like hard enough to break all the way through my DSi, which happened. I think Savant told me that's how it works.

Manyelle: Oh, homeslice, ah wuz kickin' it in sum chat wit da home bois an' some guy askeded me "Hey, do you want to be an admin?", an' I was like "Fo sho, homay!" And das how it be. Nothin' ta do wit bein' a mature an' responsible user.

QUESTION 2: Does becoming an admin come with any benefits or perks?

unSteible: Yeah, you get the honor of watching over your fellow users and the pleasure of making a ton of new friends. I really love everyone here just so much!

Sur4Mike: Not really. It's just like being a normal user, except you have to deal with all the bad users. It's sort of a pain.

AwesomeThespian: Oh! Duude! Tons! You get this free Admins jacket that comes with a ticket in the pocket with the information for your new free Admin's locker! The Admin's locker gets restocked with a free lunch every day! Not just that, but you also get this high tech little robot servant who gives you these weird pills; one makes you all happy and altruistic, I think unSteible likes that one, and the other pill makes you all relaxed and forget things, I think Sur4Jess and most other admins take that one all the time. They seem to never know what I'm talking about when I mention all this cool stuff you get for being an admin. I don't know what those pills really are, but they seem effective. Damn, being an admin is cool! We're getting jetpacks soon!

QUESTION 3: What do you most enjoy about being an admin? What do you most dislike?

RottenDinnerPackage: Probably what I most enjoy is talking to all the kids begging for adminship. They're so polite and eloquent! As for dislike, I can't think of anything even remotely unsatisfying.

SteelDarkness: Banning, definitely the banning. It's so much fun to watch users just minding their own business, following the rules perfectly and suddenly, bam! They're banned! I love banning users for no reason! Hahaha! Then later they're all "Wth?!!!!1! i wuznt doing anything bad! i wuz jst cussing out evry1 in teh chatz!" It's hilarious then finding their profiles full of totally appropriate things like furry pr0nz and getting them perma'd just for the fun of it! What do I dislike about it? Nothing! Oh, gee, abusing my power by banning people who spew hateful speeches toward every race, religion, political belief, and gender is fun!



That's it for now. I hope you've enjoyed this and learned something about being an admin.
