The Admin Appreciation Thread.

The topic title is abit off but oh well. But i'd like to say a few words!

1st thing 1st...
We wont be taking on new admins. Ever. (or atleast for a VERY long time.) although as we get more members we will probrably think about a new mod but I think we are happy with the team. Me, Nic, R. and V (And of course Ken and our resident Sum-expert-Phili!) do a fucking FANTASTIC job tbh. We know we can be slow but we all have personal lives and we do get quite a few PM's.

Me and Nic will hopefully be working on the forum tonight and tomorrow in an attempt to get it functioning as it was on day 1 (and hopefully find a way to stop the spam bots) and with the server move almost complete we will be able to provide you with much easier access to media and as always, If you have media you think would be a good addition to the collection feel free to PM an admin for some FTP access.

But i feel this forum could be better, a more enjoyable place to waste time, if you will. So... Any suggestions as to new features? New forum sections? and we shall see about getting them done when we try and fix this place up.

Please don't tell me you actually think that's why we want to ban you.

I'm pretty much down with sumfan. I have no other creative ideas to contribute to the betterment of this forum.

The admins are 15-17. So why would a 14 year old be so out of the question?

It's nothing against 14 year olds really, it's just that admins should be mature, rational people. And it's more likely a person will be mature and rational when they're 18 then when they're 14.

That logic is so fucking backwards, it's sickening. I'm very mature at the age of 16, you're saying I'm an incapable staff member because I like to have a fucking joke or two with the members?

Please stop putting goddamn words in my mouth. I did not say "Jordan is incapable because he jokes around with other members".

I'm saying this based on experience. I'm a member of 4 active forums. One of them has very strict community rules and all admins are in there 20's. That sites runs perfectly smooth and there are no problems.. ever.

i'm saying if TNS had similar experience, the site might be better.
Notice the word "might"
In the other 3 sites, there isn't as strict as rules and there are admins of all sorts of age.. and things tend to get out of hand sometimes.

I'm not personally complaining right now... (yet) but others on the forum are...

Sigh. i miss Tiny and Zam...

Maybe if you stopped setting rules for everyone to follow, no one will put words in your mouth.
What's the difference between a 14 year old (who shouldn't be picked as an admin) and a 15 year old (who can be picked)?
Gib is 14, and i'm 20:
He's more clever, talented, mature, funny and awesome that i could ever be.
Don't hate me for this Luke, but you seem to be asking for trouble.

I really would not like it this forum was really REALLY strict, to be it would just ruin the fun that we have.
