The wiki is, as one could say, a dark time. The sudden lack of aministrators and patrollers has taken it's toll on keeping things in order, but a wiki can't solely be based off it's staff and community, it's based more around it's viewers.

As for the colour thing, I think we should keep it the way it is. It lets people know what staff members can and can't do, it doesn't tell them they're super-editors, it tells them what special abilities they have which are used in order to maintain the wiki.

Unless all staff members become the same rank, I don't see the point of abolishing the colour system and unifying the staff under one shade.
