 * 1) I'm sorry, but even with the third time you requested this, it still doesn't properly explain what makes you qualified for the role. IAmThe789Guy (talk) 13:55, 2 April 2023 (UTC)
 * I just fixed it to make my reasoning a bit more clearer. Sickminecraft45 Signature Icon.jpg  (Talk to Me!) 13:57, 2 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Even with that "more clearer" reason, I still don't believe you'd be a good fit. As Raidarr pointed out, you would (possibly) abuse your powers by going after your "rivals". IAmThe789Guy (talk) 14:35, 2 April 2023 (UTC)
 * I'm autistic so I'm not perfect and I stated that I promise I'll never abuse these powers to block my 'rivals'. Sickminecraft45 Signature Icon.jpg  (Talk to Me!) 14:52, 2 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Are you seriously using your autism as a cheap excuse??? IAmThe789Guy (talk) 15:05, 2 April 2023 (UTC)
 * I’m not using it as an excuse. I’m was mentioning it just to say that I’m not perfect! Sickminecraft45 Signature Icon.jpg  (Talk to Me!) 22:13, 2 April 2023 (UTC)
 * that's LITERALLY how a cheap excuse works. Eternity Media Group Wordmark.png (Lets chat!) 22:14, 2 April 2023 (UTC)
 * That is so unacceptable. And I'm autistic myself! IAmThe789Guy (talk) 22:18, 2 April 2023 (UTC)
 * 1)  per 789. I don’t think waiting a month was long enough, and I haven't seen enough evidence to suggest you could handle such responsibility yet. Eternity Media Group Wordmark.png (Lets chat!) 14:37, 2 April 2023 (UTC)
 * 2)  per 789 as well. Specifically mentioning that you won't use your powers to block your “rivals” only tells me that… well… you'd use your powers to do exactly that. That's basically how the Board of Directors fell out of power here, and I really don't think a second Board just like that is in the best interests of AVID. Good job separating those pages though, but I am not really onboard your request. Also please don't use the autism card next time, personally dislike it when people use it and expect us to feel sorry for them FryLetterman (talk) 21:43, 2 April 2023 (UTC)
 * 3)  I do not see you as fit. You still haven't sufficiently demonstrated to us why we should consider you for the Moderation role. Furthermore, as everyone else stated using Autism card as a means for people to show understanding for your flaws (matter of fact, most of the users here including myself are autistic) is not a good idea.

Comments
IAmThe789Guy: I did not bring up rivals, I think you're referring to Solarstrike's comment on the previous request.

Anyway, the logic in this request is as superficial as last time. The request is 'I'm trying to be a good user', followed by "I did some good edits", apologies for random incidents, "I swear I won't block my rivals", and then a brief bit that has to do with the actual role. The last sentence was at least relevant but I see nothing that really demonstrates you'd even know how to assess and deal with sockpuppetry, or enforce the rules effectively. In other words I don't see evidence that anything has changed since last request. Adding request after request hoping something will stick isn't a good look. You can start with the red flag: the way you phrased "I won't block my rivals" implying you indeed have rivals... yeah, no. And, "I'm autistic and I'm not perfect" qualifies you for absolutely nothing. The point of this is to highlight what you can offer to the role. All you've done is prove, again, that you don't understand what you're trying to get.

I'd avoid trying to collect hats, and for more than a couple of months this time. This is not a place for people to 'rank up' for the sake of it.--Raidarr (talk) 00:34, 3 April 2023 (UTC)


 * 1)  Can you please close this? I'm taking a break for a month and I want this closed! Sickminecraft45 Signature Icon.jpg   (Talk to Me!) 02:23, 3 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Rules are rules. These stay up for a month before we close. IAmThe789Guy (talk) 02:25, 3 April 2023 (UTC)
 * No, the requester can retract. Just a crat has to close rather than an admin.
 * Also the rule is supposed to be a MAXIMUM of one month, staff misinterpreted the RFC lol. Eternity Media Group Wordmark.png (Lets chat!) 02:29, 3 April 2023 (UTC)

Support

 * 1) your work on the Discord server is admirable. I think you're a brilliant candidate for mod over here. Eternity Media Group Wordmark.png (Lets chat!) 08:51, 4 March 2023 (UTC)
 * 2) per EMG. If I could still use strong support, I would. sig.png Talk ·&#32;Edits 09:09, 4 March 2023 (UTC)
 * 3) This user has a lot of experience moderating over on both the old and new Discord servers, and I think has very easily proved they are a more than suitable fit for moderator. Luke2505 (talk) 13:49, 4 March 2023 (UTC)
 * 4) largely because of his experience (though I'm not a discord user myself) and WF edits do count. IAmThe789Guy (talk) 23:12, 5 March 2023 (UTC)
 * 5) per everyone else.   Logohub   (talk) 13:17, 15 March 2023 (UTC)
 * 6) Doctorine Dark (talk) 07:14, 20 March 2023 (UTC)
 * 7) I admire older users as most of the time they are wise. (BOD doesn't count) JrStudios Logo .png(Talk!) 12:02, 20 March 2023 (UTC)
 * 8) per above Sickminecraft45 Signature Icon.jpg   (Talk to Me!) 13:58, 2 April 2023 (UTC)
 * 9) per everyone. Fry has proven himself as effective in the Discord server, can't wait to see how this translates onto the wiki. Compooper (talk) 23:12, 2 April 2023 (UTC)

Comments

 * 1)  Will your activity on the wiki itself step up should you take on this role? I think it should be considered that discord activity isn't synonymous with wiki activity and the wiki activity is on the weaker side here, hence me asking. It's not an issue of trust, just asking in terms of priorities. --Raidarr (talk) 14:35, 4 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Yeah. Like I said, I've been trying to be more active here, so I'll definitely step up with the wiki activity. FryLetterman (talk) 22:36, 5 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Alright, best of luck on what is more than likely to be a successful request. --Raidarr (talk) 23:17, 5 March 2023 (UTC)

Oppose

 * 1) Unfortunately, I must  due to a lack of proper reasoning. Eternity Media Group Wordmark.png (Lets chat!) 00:07, 20 February 2023 (UTC)
 * 2)  per EMG   Logohub   (talk) 13:17, 15 March 2023 (UTC)

Comments

 * 1)  The voting is still early. If I were you I'd address the above concern and provide more of a reason related to the responsibilities and how you'd use them. As it stands this request leans on 'time sunk fallacy' - simply making edits qualifies you as a decent editor, not as a staff member on its own. --Raidarr (talk) 14:53, 24 February 2023 (UTC)

Support

 * 1) T807sig.png · Talk · Edits 04:41, 6 April 2023 (UTC)
 * 2) I'm no admin either, but seeing your major contributions throughout the past year, you're a really strong candidate for becoming an admin. Tabit Signature.png (Discussion area ¯\_(ツ)_/¯) 04:51, 6 April 2023 (UTC)
