Out of curiousity, what do you think happened to our missing Admins:
Kier
Fantomeye
Hammer of HLP 0wnage
CobaltStarr
Delphinia
_______________________________
Ok so there's really only 3 in there.. Kier is aparently some guy from vB but nobody bothers to bring out the hammer anymore.. although threads are locked all the time. I never see Fantomeye or Colbat anymore.. never seen Delphina...
-
Cobalt pops his head in from time to time. The Hammer of HLP 0wnage is merely a pseudonym used by the admins for locking threads so they can claim they didn't. As for the others... they were before my time.
-
secrets that can only be uncovered by going to the admin forum

IIRC, she was in-charge of the SquadWar anima- errrr, people. ;)
-
Delphinia was made an admin, then disappeared like 4 weeks later.
BTW, Tiara, she was a girl, too :D
-
As far as I know, she was making a SW database of sorts, and vanished into thin air, I think I'm one of the few SW pilots left here.
-
jeez.. add "ina" to anything and its immeadiately female :rolleyes:
;) that makes 3

maybe that's cause she was a "she"? :wtf:
the hammer is a joke admin.
cobalt starr made the front site, but he took a job or something instead.
I should be admin. :)
-
....
"joke" :)
hmm we should have a new "Admin Election" once every 4 months or something.. hehe get rid of the "fake admins" and have an Election for who gets to be an Admin for a month, as long as they are qualified and whatnot. Over 35 and all that crap
-
Over 35 would eliminate a lot of people
-
who's to say?
well for the goody goodies.. we could lower it a smidge. 12?
-
I shot them. Sorry, had a bad day a few months back there...
...by the way, do you really mean nobody checked the freezer between now and then? If they did, you'd think they'd have noticed the corpses...

Busy in real life, but online right now.
Delphinia has only posted in the SW forum.

Against HLP policy. Only admins get to decide who joins up. We take up staff to fill holes in our ranks, not 'just because'.
-
hey we are the dictators around here and we decide everything around here. ;7
Oopps, i was thinking to loud again, wasn't I
-
No not really everything!
Hm I agree with the election idea. :nod: So where do I sign up? ;7

Well, you seem to have some "holes" at the moment (the "dead admins" people are talking about), so why not put one or two others in... :D (especially for doing website updates and such, so there can be someone maintaining the site at all times of the year)

An interviewing admin perhaps (kill two birds (well, threads) with one stone (well, Admin. Shut up with your damned nitpicking will you? It's a figure of speech! :mad2: )
-
Cobalt = Doing other stuff, occasionally lurks.
Fantomeye = Dunno, occasionally lurks.
Hammer = Used during forumite riots
Delphinia = Was making SW database, has departed for parts unknown
Setekh = RL issues
Shrike = Issues
Thunder = Here, but apparently not.....meh.
Sandwich = Here, enjoying sporadic lack of other online admins and using that time to smite threads and ban users covertly
Styxx = Dunno. Probably LW stuff.
Maeglamor = Off doing stuff. Doesn't seem to lurk.
Carl = Here and he's......err......he's......erm.....What does Carl actually do?
*runs*
-
Seems Windrunner or Cobalt could be handling the news updates, Pic O the Moment, and interviews since they're the web page guys. The moderating admins (Thunder, Styxx, Shrike) are quite busy here on the forums.

:wtf:
I can tell you all what I'm doing with my life if you like... but I'd like to know what an0ns on about, since I am quite obviously here!
-
You stepped down, but you're still here admining.
-
I stepped down from official duties such as forum monitoring, requests etc... so that I could work on personal projects which have since become integrated (and slowed) by college life. I'm still here, just not in the capacity that I once was :)
-
Okay, so you're here, but half-not?
-
I'm not here as an admin - but as I'm the co-founder of the site I agreed with Shrike to keep my staff powers and admin the forums if/when necessary. However I'm focusing on what I do and not giving people avatars etc...
-
So you're a non-admin founder who's here and has admin powers, but doesn't do anything except close threads, ban users and issue warnings?
-
One can only hope so
-
Pretty much, but it's not like I'm abusing that power... so Shrike and the others are happy for me to maintain it. I've also got a hosted site in the works, but like I said college has slowed that somewhat.
-
:rolleyes: :nervous: :eek2: :wtf:
*head explodes*
The idea of getting people for interviewing and general page update stuff isn't bad though. This site doesn't consist of only forums, ya know.

you could've fooled me!
oh well, i guess it's good to have a secret admin. by the way, has any admin that's "left" ever gotten his/her moderating powers removed?
-
No. The other admins would decide that amongst themselves, it's never been necessary - all it's ever taken is a quick word saying "calm down a bit on that" or whatever and no more of an issue has been made.
-
Hmm... Steak and Sandwich... both can be eaten... :wtf:
-
Mmmm, food...
So, what you're saying is that, like an admin, you have admin powers, but what distinguisnes you from an actual admin is that you don't abuse said powers.
I get it.

Evidently, you don't :wtf:
-
So you're a super-mod?
-
Thunder is like all of us admins, he has no more or less power than any of us that maintain HLP. if there is any trouble or if we have to decide anything its done by voting, noone in the has more power than other
-
Like the man said really, I have no supreme power - nor do I want it. I also have no less power than the other admins of the site. I've simply stepped down from "adminning" and have moved to personal projects. Since I retain hosting and the fact I co-founded the site - I still have admin powers, and when it's clear that something must be done - I use them.
That's all there is to it really, If you insist on labelling me then call me an admin for that is the power I have. But my first sentence is what I really am, and that falls under none of your catagories.
The End :)

Because if we were going to be doing a full update of the site it would involve a lot of work and probably more than just one person working. Which is why we're holding off for the time being.

It might as well just consist of forums.

Thunder: Anyone I can't make fun of and get away with it is an admin. Thus...
Why is this back on the interview thing? I thought that idea died in the first thread.

But you CAN make fun of them and (maybe) get away with it. Observe:
*pokes Thunder in the eye with a pointy stick*
*calls him a poopy-head*
*runs*

Quiet, you! Since he's denying he's an admin, I'm trying to get him to admit that we can mock him incessantly- then I can screen-capture the post, and THE WORLD WILL BE MINE!!!
-
Oh sure, you can mock me. But then I'll call it spam and close the thread... so, you loose ;)
-
On that note, your avatar still looks like it's wearing lipstick... Did you just not care about that or are you trying to tell us something?:D
-
*cough* http://www.fattonys.com/mock.html *cough*
Gotta love Notepad.
*runs*
-
When I said you can mock me but I'll consider it spam and lock the thread - I didn't mean you were free to do it and try and get every thread on the board locked. I'll ban you before it comes to that :cool:

well fine.. admins could vote... same idea.
jeeze, i've created someting i am powerless to stop
:D
-
Aw man, I always hoped I'd get made admin "just because"... way to dash my hopes!
I'll show you... I'm gonna go and make my OWN forum, and be admin of THAT. And it's gonna have lots of people, and be really cool, and have lots of noobs and trolls to squash, and you can't be admins there!
-
:(
-
Can I be a troll there?

Whither thou goest, thou art a troll.;)

Nothing stopping you. In fact, I encourage it. Chase your dreams.

That's what I did.....err.....Except I think they made Shrike an admin. I'm still unclear in regards to that part. And I kinda leeched onto a previously existing idea. Other than that though........

Well, since this thread's about to be locked, I may as well post my opinion quickly:
Meh...
