#::I didn't mean to say you were abusing scare tactics, but rather that you seemingly would; to me, the comment "Truth is, I am never going to gain these (dispute) skills without being given this chance." reads as "I can't settle or partake in user disputes properly unless I become an admin and try it", implying that the only way you can be confident or competent enough to handle a dispute is by assuming the power of a higher up. Then hypothetically, you think you can force your opinion better on dissenting users because most users would (rather unfortunately) be inclined to listen to an admin than a "newbie". That seems a lot like swaying people with power in fear of being hurt; you scare them, ergo scare tactics. If it means something else, please enlighten me.<br>As for your second point...well, just don't be too condescending. Don't do stuff like warning blocks or page protections just because you are not fond of the way a user is doing something. If it is harmful to the Wiki that's another story. Just be reasonable and don't jump the gun in any disputes you happen to get into. - [[User:EndGenuity|EndGenuity]] ([[User talk:EndGenuity|talk]]) 19:54, 23 July 2015 (EDT)

#:::I must solidly disagree. Forcing my opinion is not really my thing. I will argue my case, of course, but I will never use my power in a way that implies "agree with me, or be banned".

#:::I'm with Serpent King. He is not condescending unlike Miles, OT, or Brian, and I know he wouldn't abuse his power. Also, Miles and Brian (mostly Miles) shove their opinions down our throats, so there is some hypocrisy there. [[User:Ganonmew|Ganonmew]] ([[User talk:Ganonmew|talk]]) 17:14, 18 August 2015 (EDT)
#'''Neutral''': I primarily say this because of a lack of true administration-worthy skills such as conflict resolution. You have done some spectacular things for the wiki in your time here, but you don't even have rollback and I can't see much in your logs that show you recognizing or dealing with vandals. If you show this, maybe I'll reconsider my vote if this is still open. <span style="font-family: AR DARLING; font-size: 12pt"> [[User:DarkFox01|{{Color|black|Dark}}]][[User talk:DarkFox01|{{Color|darkred|Fox}}]][[Special:Contributions/DarkFox01|{{Color|red|01}}]]</span>[[File:DF01Sig.png|19px]]All aircraft breakaway! 19:59, 23 July 2015 (EDT)

#<span class="explain" title="Change to neutral">'''0%'''</span> Well time goes by and I'm starting to see that you're one of the best RFA candidate. I think you just need to show a bit more on disputes, although not everybody is perfect at this, and can be difficult. Your edits are mostly great. Great, helpful, and amiable editor. Nothing negative to say. You just need only one thing. You may also need to look at your weak points as an editor. [[User:Luigi540|Luigi540]] ([[User talk:Luigi540|talk]]) 20:18, 1 August 2015 (EDT)
