FreeSmudger (Administrator) FreeSmudger (talk) Contributions Editcount

There are a few things on the wiki that I am shall I say, unhappy with. When I last left my Beauraucrat position, I was sure that the wiki was doing fine without my help; today, that is not the case in my eyes. I know that I may not always seem the most serious at times or that I don't talk enough at all, but I want to let you all know that this will end now and I will become more active with the community from now on. Before you oppose, I want you to consider this: I have had these rights before, for over a year in fact, and I know the ups and downs of them; you can ask any veteran user here that. I want to help this wiki, it is my home within my home and I love the community. I await your opinions... {{User:FreeSmudger/Sig}} 00:21, February 4, 2015 (UTC)

 * 1) I can't find any reason for you not to get yer rights back. PKMNthehedgehog2.5 (talk) 00:31, February 4, 2015 (UTC)
 * 2) When asked "Since you said you were sure the wiki was fine without your help, how will the wiki improve if you get your administrator rights back?", FreeSmudger answered: I want to improve relations between admins and community, since I am sensing a lot of tension in that area. I would also like to help with the Emoticon issue, as a lot is not being done about that (I have been thinking about theissue for a while on Emotes I would like removed, which is why I haven't commented on the recent forum). Those are my main objectives. You are correct about the passive thing. In the past I was afraid to act because I feared that I might fail and couldn't take the judgement. Now I feel more prepared for this." His response sealed the deal for me. -- 00:36, February 4, 2015 (UTC)
 * 3) I think Free will be a great help with the current situation involving admins. GeekyEverAfter (talk) 00:42, February 4, 2015 (UTC)

 * 8) Attitude, willingness, maturity, judgment... more than enough good reasons for a re-promotion. -- 02:51, February 4, 2015 (UTC)
 * 9) Aye. Around roughly the same time as me, as what I've seen so far. He'll be a good help.

Oppose

 * 1) To me, Free, as a user, has been better since he was an admin. But, frankly I never felt like he deserved it in the first place, due to his deep lack in contribution outside the chat; so I oppose. Chat moderator would seem convenient. --Pandoo (talk) 05:38, February 4, 2015 (UTC)
 * 2) Yeah, I have to reconsider my vote. Free barely did anything as administrator, and even then, he doesn't contribute much outside of chat. If the nomination was aimed for a chat moderator, I would have support. Basically, per Pandoo. - 13:37, February 4, 2015 (UTC)
 * 3) You have been nominated several times cause of bias, and it looks exactly the same this time. I never see you actually do work now and before. Gonna have to oppose. Banner1.png 02:52, February 8, 2015 (UTC)
 * 4) You never really contributed to the wiki outside the chat, not as a regular user and not even when you received administrator and even bureaucrat rights. The most you did was add emoticons to the chat. Anything else you did could have easily been done with chat moderator rights, and whenever you actually did something on the wiki with your tools, you had to be told to most of the time. While I trust that you mean you'll be more active on the wiki, I'll need more than your word.

Discussion

 * Congratulations, you are now an administrator. 17:46, February 19, 2015 (UTC)
