{{Closed|{{Member|Sacorguy79}} was promoted to administrator on 30 November 2013.|archive= Sacorguy79 (Administrator) Sacorguy79 (talk): Contributions Edit Count

I never thought I would be doing this. I'll be perfectly honest, I don't even know if this is the correct decision on my part.

That being said, I wish to nominate myself for Administration once more. Prior to my retirement, I had felt as though this wiki did not require my services. Everyone seemed to be doing what I pictured as "my job", and the amount of Administrators at the time was quite plentiful. However, up to today, I feel disconnected from the wiki. I don't chat very often, all I really do is comment on a blog on the occasion, and I feel more useless than I was before. And now, with the amount of Administrators being half of what it was previously, this nomination is an opportunity that I do not wish to miss.

People have commented before that I was fit for this role. However, I can appear to be quite a jerk at times, but I mean no disrespect towards others by my sarcastic comments and seemingly harsh tones (although, I admit I've acted harshly before, something of which I must improve on). This is your chance to prove to both me and yourself if I am suitable to Administrate this wiki. My motivations for helping are that of what they were back in early 2012; to delete unnecessary content, block vandals/spammers, perform proper duties, be a team player, resolve conflicts between users (i. e. edit wars, etc.) and to be at anyone's service (as I've regarded that a few Admins are less approached by the community members, in favor of those who need their own space to breathe).

Please take time to consider your vote or neutrality. I expect that anyone who is voting will be able to make their own judgement and not be under the influence of their peers on this wiki, nor should they make strict, biased votes, be it through support or opposition. Thank you for your consideration. {{User:Sacorguy79/Signature}} 23:30, November 16, 2013 (UTC)

 * 1) You were a very helpful admin prior to your retirement. If you're sure about this, then I say go for it. Good luck! 23:35, November 16, 2013 (UTC)
 * 2) Time Biter  "The Rift"  23:41, November 16, 2013 (UTC)
 * 3) I don't even understand why you felt like you were useless in the first place. You've always been fit for the job. Go for it! -- Shadowunleashed13 (talk) 02:02, November 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * 4) SonicRunPeace.gifMariosonic15  I always race to win! Tailsbye.gif 03:01, November 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * 5) Ja: After your retirement, no matter when, I still always viewed you as an administrator even when there was no title or emerald next to your name. Let's make it there again. {{{User:FreeSmudger/Sig}} 04:34, November 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * 6) -- 06:04, November 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * 7) You've always been a role model to me. I had no idea you'd retired. Of course you deserve to administrate again. PhysAnimation3.gif]] PhysTheEchidna  ( talk ) [[File:PhysPose1.png 15:47, November 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * 8) Per All. Pacmansonic138 (talk) 19:20, November 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * 9) He was a good admin. I had no idea he retired when I first joined. I think he deserves administrator rights again. Sonicthehedgehog315 (talk) 19:35, November 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * 10) Per the 9 above. The True Ultimate Silver Fan  ( My talking page! Someone tell it to stop. ) 19:41, November 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * 11) Per the 10 above.
 * 12) Per All. (Ohmygod123 (talk) 20:52, November 17, 2013 (UTC))
 * 13) Unless my eyes are/have been hallucinating what I'm seeing, you still seem humble and smart enough for the role of Administrator. As some others have noted, you demonstrate the ideal qualities for an Administrative position on this Wiki, a sentiment in which I agree with. Even if you still have some traits regarding your overall attitude & personality to work on, I know you're fully capable of working on these traits and gradually become an improved individual over time as a result. In my opinion I'd be great to see you again on the Administrator directory. Lloyd the Cat  "I don't die. I just go on adventures."  21:57, November 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * 14) The wiki definitely needs more administrators like you, considering that only few are active and help. I support this, no matter what the past was for you. You will use this well. 22:58, November 18, 2013 (UTC)
 * 15) If I had to summarize every comment the community has said in this nomination in one word, that word would be "compassionate". Yes, this is what I honestly have considered you as a user from what I have seen and heard. I see you as the ideal candidate for administrator privileges from your reasons (role model, team player and housekeeper etc.) as you have been compassionate to what happens around the wiki in general. I would like to see you back on the administrator team once again regardless on what you feel you may have endeavoured in the past. Mystic Orb (TP.CO.EC) 06:13, November 20, 2013 (UTC)
 * 16) I believe you are capable of adminship, perhaps much more so than before.  Myself  123  22:43, November 20, 2013 (UTC)
 * 17) I think you could accomplish alot. --IceSeason101 (talk) 23:24, November 21, 2013 (UTC)
 * 18) I never took issue with any of the things you mentioned in the first part of this nomination, and I felt as though you were a competent and outstanding administrator before you voluntarily retired. My vote on this should be obvious. --ALSigNew1.gifALSigNew2.gif 18:09, November 23, 2013 (UTC)
 * 19) Of course. For all of the reason you were made admin in the first place. -- Murphyshane -  熱! Don't click here   18:59, November 23, 2013 (UTC)
 * 20) Tad late to the party, but I'll throw in my support as well.  18:57, November 28, 2013 (UTC)

 * I would just like to take to time to say that the reasons listed by the candidate are the real reasons users should be seeking administration on this wiki. I have seen far too many cases of users desiring the tools for the sake of having the title of "administrator". Administrators are role models, team players, and housekeepers. They are not more important than the everyday user and they certainly have no authority on the wiki. I acknowledge that this comment was a tad irrelevant to the nomination at hand, but I felt the need to leave this memorandum to all users reading this, future and present, who may eventually find themselves running for adminship. Props to Sacorguy79 for his dedication to the wiki, and for setting an example for future nominees. -- 06:16, November 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * I appreciate your comment and support. 12:44, November 17, 2013 (UTC)


 * Still a little neutral on the fact of how you thought you were no help, on how you gave your adminship, your slightly intimidate behavior (which I know isn't something to take seriously) and how having you as an admin would benefit the wiki even more so. Otherwise, you are charismatic user who can get the job done. --Toxice (talk) 06:39, November 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * Acknowledged. 12:44, November 17, 2013 (UTC)


 * your recent behaviour on yoshiwiis return is kinda setting me back, so neutral. --KrazyKillertheHater (talk) 05:09, November 21, 2013 (UTC)


 * @KrazyKillertheHater: Since you've gone to the trouble of mentioning such behavior, would you care to elaborate on it so those of us who're watching this User Rights discussion can better understand what you are talking about? Lloyd the Cat  "I don't die. I just go on adventures."  20:53, November 21, 2013 (UTC)
 * I see no reason to hide that some of my recent comments were "questionable" on this blog. This alone could show that I might not be worthy of Adminship again. Please reconsider upon viewing. 20:58, November 21, 2013 (UTC)
 * Very well. I'll take a look.
 * EDIT: Just finished reviewing the blog. While a couple of comments Sacor made regarding how, basically, it would be tragic if YoshiWii1 left the Wiki due to his apparent inability to tolerate differing opinions/comments were indeed sarcastic and uncalled for, I feel that Sacor isn't entirely at fault for his mistakes on YoshiWii1's blog because, as its clearly shown, nearly everyone who commented on the blog has been finding it difficult to take YoshiWii1 seriously and has expressed (more or less) provoked displeasure with him due to his evasive, forceful arguments against the other groups & individuals who presented differing opinions from him. If anyone needs to be reprimanded for their behavior on that blog, it isn't just Sacor.


 * I think the necessary solution in Sacor's case is just a reminder of the importance of not going out of your way to act needlessly sarcastic and rude with someone you strongly disagree with, even if you have every reason to disagree with them. With that said, I'm still going to support his promotion into an Administrator. Lloyd the Cat  "I don't die. I just go on adventures."  21:39, November 21, 2013 (UTC)


 * Noted. I shall try to avoid bringing the worst behavior out of myself the next time I start becoming impatient with someone. I trust that people will not follow my example like that again (if they were, by any chance) in the future. Thank you for analyzing this, Genesjs. 22:11, November 21, 2013 (UTC)


 * If I don't take the time to properly analyze things that are potentially/unquestionably important in some way, I won't argue if someone tells me that I'm not taking my responsibilities as seriously as I should, because I wouldn't be. You don't need to thank me Sacor -- I'm simply doing what is expected of me by the community at large, or at least I think I am. Lloyd the Cat  "I don't die. I just go on adventures."  19:58, November 22, 2013 (UTC)

Conclusion

 * Yes - There's overwhelming support for your request and no direct opposition. Congratulations! You're an admin once again. This discussion will be removed shortly. 17:02, November 30, 2013 (UTC)
