However, we have no real candidates right now, as far as I can see:
 * We could promote a patroller - such as Rim or Atvelonis, but neither of them seems to want the admin position, so then we must look further.
 * Saj seems to care a lot about the wiki, but whether he can handle the sysop position I am not sure of.
 * I am probably not a good candidate; I don't think I'm up to running a wiki this big.

This is about all I can come up with; there really are no high-ranking staff members who want to be sysops at the moment. I don't think this helps, but I felt that I needed to voice my opinion.

He's been active on the Wiki since I've been a Contributer, and I believe I started in late 2013-early 2014. Also, I haven't seen Psyjic Theif in a while, what ever happened to him? Did he leave? I can confirm I don't want the administrator position, I just think it's too early for me. I'm still adjusting to being a Patroller. I'm not sure about Atvelonis, but I'm guessing he thinks the same. Fire Wolf Pup is a good candidate in my eyes.

Saj and AzuraKnight are no exception to the rules. I voted support on Spey's application due to the dire need of admins, but now that we have an active admin that need isn't as big. PsijicThief hasn't been active since October; he only made 2 contributions in 2014. Every administrator was a patroller before they became an admin; if somebody wants to become an admin, they should be a patroller beforehand. Personally I'd vote for Pelinal, but he has stated he has no desire to become an admin.
