What is it? Do you want to talk somewhere else, or just stay on talk pages? -- Shadowunleashed13 (talk) 12:52, November 5, 2013 (UTC)

forever dj 15:56, November 5, 2013 (UTC) cool! you changed you're name just like me!

Well, first of all, do you understand what being an admin is about? -- Shadowunleashed13 (talk) 16:59, November 5, 2013 (UTC)

Sort of, but there's more to being an administrator than that.

See, an administrator can do a lot more than block users. He/she can also delete pages, rename files, edit any page on the wiki (even MediaWiki pages, which contain some of the code for the wiki), kick and ban users from chat, close site discussions, and more. On top of that, people look up to administrators as leaders. That's a lot of responsibility that comes with that.

Now, when people think of an admin, they want someone who edits frequently, who's always involved in forums, someone who is known by most of the community because of his/her activity, someone who knows all the rules, someone who is always kind and always tries his/her best to help out anyone anywhere, someone who comports himself/herself like a leader and takes initiative. I'll admit, I'm not even all of these things. But this is some of the stuff people look for in an administrator. Just a tip. ;) -- Shadowunleashed13 (talk) 18:51, November 5, 2013 (UTC)

Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't notice it. In reply, 353 edits is still something you can build off of. -- Shadowunleashed13 (talk) 17:29, November 6, 2013 (UTC)

You can still nominate yourself, but I would strongly advise against it. -- Shadowunleashed13 (talk) 20:26, November 6, 2013 (UTC)

Well, a nice start would be becoming a rollback. If you want to be a rollback, all you need to do (besides nominating yourself) is edit mainspace regularly and revert unconstructive edits. -- Shadowunleashed13 (talk) 20:45, November 6, 2013 (UTC)

Well, just nominate yourself where you normally would for admin rights, at Sonic News Network:Requests for User Rights. Then, just tell the community why you want rollback rights and how having these rights would help the wiki. You probably want to provide examples of when you reverted edits that were unconstructive, too. If you can't find examples in your contributions, though, you probably shouldn't nominate yourself. -- Shadowunleashed13 (talk) 21:12, November 6, 2013 (UTC)

I don't think you understand the concept of user rights. User rights don't mean you're important, or that you're better than anyone else. They're nothing but tools given to people the community knows for sure will use them for good. They don't change your status; they're nothing but tools. Being an administrator or even a rollback shouldn't affect what people think of you. User rights don't make you special. You're special, because you are. -- Shadowunleashed13 (talk) 21:51, November 6, 2013 (UTC)

Wow, that really is an epic avatar. What is it? -- Shadowunleashed13 (talk) 21:57, November 6, 2013 (UTC)

If you're not important to anyone, it's because they choose not to recognize you for who you are. It's not because you're bad or because there's nothing to like about you. -- Shadowunleashed13 (talk) 22:08, November 6, 2013 (UTC)

No, you're not being a fool. Everyone worries about what others think of them, even me sometimes. -- Shadowunleashed13 (talk) 22:15, November 6, 2013 (UTC)
