I think your idea sounds a little confusing, but not bad at all. I imagine it will start to be simpler once the users see it in action. I just hope it doesn't get manipulated again!

But about the Jimeee, thing, I just want to clear up I wasen't banned from the site, but rather de-modded for ctitcizing him. They claim it was because I got angry at the end of the chat, but after discussions with Admins in the PMs they have basically indirectly admitted it was due to nominating Jimeee. In addition, Speysider, who also sweared got no punishment for this, at all! In addition, Jimeee who has insulted users in the past, was never even given a warning or anything. Basically, it was only me who got punished for something other users did, doesn't that sound a little strange? Did I also mention there was absolutely no consensus for this?

Admins on this SITE have not shown to care about anything outside of the Mainspace (Not all, but the majority indeed). Everytime there's an issue on the Chat or Forums, they hardly lift a finger to stop it. In addition, Admins are almost never there. This makes sense too, since only Patrollers can become Administrators, meaning every Admin on the site is only going to be mainspace oriented, leaving the Chat & Forums just to be enforced by Chat Mods & Forum Mods. Auto's comment just speaks volumes and ultimately confirms what the Admins believe on this subject, it makes me so disappointed in the Wiki! We're not just a Mainspace Wiki anymore, the Forums & Live Chat are growing! While the Mainspace is actually losing editors (ironically), so isn't it backwards that the two growing areas of the site recieve not nearly the same amount of attention as the deflating area?

The Jimeee thread was an example of issues on the site. If this had been any other user, they would've been de-modded easily, no questions asked, but since he was an Admin on the site and apparently "edited a lot" he was treated as if he was above the rules. Is that really how we want this site to run? Where if you edit a lot you are immune to being de-modded and can basically just treat people however you want? I don't at all. Nobody should be immune to the rules, even if you've edited this Wiki longer &/or harder than anyone else the rules should still apply to you. Which in this current situation they obviously don'y, with that Jimeee de-modding thread as the proof!

The Stendarr and EJ thing was just ridiculous. How could something like that happen and get treated seriously? Shouldn't a chat Moderator now that the point of a nomination system is that people should not be able to ask if they can be in that position? I thought it was, yet again the voting system is being abused. This could be another sign we should re-evaluate our system, because currently this system is flawed. In addition, you notice how little Patrollers and Admins get nominated? This is because only Admins and Patrollers can nominate others to be in that position, but the thing is, most of them are semi-active meaning that nobody can really be nominated. In addition, other users can't nominate anyone to be in a position, just because they are NOT currently in that position.

So, Admins, if you see this, don't delete it, do not try to use censorship in order to cover up what's going on. This goes for EVERYTHING on the blog! Try and actually refute my points (and Madman's even for that matter!) and work to improve this Wiki, our constant ignoring of issues will eventually run this site into being in-active once again, with probable power struggles for who can run the site just like before Timeoin showed up.
