Why, because the majority of people make good roleplaying admin candidates? You're assuming that we have some means for evaluating a person's competence and reliability, and if do then we can already eliminate the bad apples. If we don't, how do we know that the new person won't be a hundred times worse?

There can possibly be a real good administrator out there that we won’t find out unless we allow some other folks who have never had the opportunity
So now you're saying it's impossible to know how good somebody will be until they've been given the "goodies"?

Your not, you are mostly arguing with me about my reasons for becoming a Role-playing Administrator
Of the eight paragraphs in my previous post:

3 discussed the general principles of staff selection without any reference to you
2 challenged your claims of suitability
3 addressed the attacks you made on my character

Two out of eight doesn't seem to qualify as "mostly".

In any case, if your self-nomination was on-topic then so are my comments thereon.

Quote:
I really don’t know why you are so concerned when you don’t role-playing in Kingdoms
I may not play Kingdoms, but I do want to see Graal prosper. Weak administrators don't much help that goal.

Quote:
It's not about popularity contest; I was using those two to show my evidence as a good role-player
So the only reason somebody could vote for you is that you're a good roleplayer? And if somebody else got more votes, it would be logical to assume that they're better?

Quote:
Of course you wouldn't know that I’m a good role-player because you’re not currently in the role-playing community
My personal experience is pretty much irrelevant here. I merely asked if you could present any substantial evidence for your claim, and it seems that you cannot.

Quote:
I'm not you; I don’t know why you picked me or picked any other person from other threads to argue with
And yet you seem perfectly comfortable in telling me my reasons for posting here. One moment you can read my mind, the next you can't?

Quote:
It’s just my natural reaction in response to someone who wishes to contend with me
Congratulations on your lack of self-control. It must be a fantastic trait for an administrator to possess.
