Who did it and why? Fat Middle, own up!
Because you won, we had to take away your admin powers. If another member had won, they wouldn't have been given any powers, so you shouldn't have any either. However, out of the kindness of our hearts, we allowed you to keep your precious Sil forum and gave the sub-forum to your Vice-president, Valandil. Have a nice day.

Ok Khamul, that clearly make its April fool rather than administrative blunder. Case closed.

But on another matter, why was the
forums leaders info cleansed a few months ago?

So, the voters voted for Sister Golden Hair as an admin, which means they were happy with that status of hers, so it is unfair to leave her as what the voters voted for? So you ripped her power off because you thought the voters didnt want her to be an admin? That is the stupidest thing I have ever heard (read). Have a nice day.

Valandil, take over. You've been catapulted to vice-presidential power, and now that SGH is gone there's no moderation taking place. (Did you figure out if you can edit things out of the Sil sub-forum yet? I think you can techinacally, but it's against the rules.)

At first I thought this comment was on the Entmoot guy picking his nose !

but then I saw it was about Val's grab for power and 60k posts!


(but I think it's a great comment about the nose ... )

Well... I did TRY one edit post, but must've not quite done it right... let's see if I can get the hang of it. Haven't got my 'training manual' for the job yet!

*sigh*

A sure sign that after just a few hours without SGH as admin, chaos reigns supreme at the 'moot!

SGH - you really should step down as President and let me take over, keeping my new moderator status (and don't forget the 60K!) - while you return to being the all-powerful Admin!

You know what Val, you sure got power happy quickly. I think you are after my job as president. You are even after my former job probably, from the looks of what you are doing in the Sil sub-forum.

Khamul- That's the stupidest thing I have ever heard. If I had know this underhanded peon staff was going to demote me, I would have withdrawn and taken that power happy VP with me.

Huh? What'd I do?

Well didn't I tell you that they were just a bunch of leeches that were after your job all along. They didn't care about you being president - they just wanted to ride your coat tails. Now that you have been removed as admin - they're falling all over themselves to try getting the job.

You know there have been problems brewing among admins - you even came to me and told me how there were certain things being kept awya from you. You even suspected there was a "real" mod forum and you weren't able to see it.

I am offering to you one last time - do you wish to join me in a revolt - to restablish your admin status and to establish JONATHAN as president and Ruinel as VP? You know now what kind of people you chose to be your running maters - leeches and back stabbing powerhungry dictator wannabes.

Don't do it, SGH!

He is the Dark Lord trying to seduce you!

Destroy the Ring! Cast it back into the fire from which it came!!!

Ah-HAH! Just as we ALWAYS suspected! A Jonathan - Ruinel Administration as a front... with JD, and now SGH as well, pulling their strings as powers behind the scenes!

Gotcha!

So says the person who is gloating all over their new found mod status. Completely unconcerned about the welfare of entmoot or even the fact the SGH was demoted.

I have reconsidered your offer. I would like to have my admin powers restored, and the hell with the presidency. My VP has become power happy.
