* <s>'''Reluctant</s> support''', <s>not for any particular reservations of your ability but just because I don't feel the particular need to widen the administrative pool. However,</s> your contributions are of consistently high quality and your diplomacy would be useful in resolving disputes and managing blocks.

* '''Support''' - I'm suprised he's not already an admin, the way he acts so respectably. xD <font face="verdana" size="2">[[User:Baltro|<span style="color:red">'''Baltro'''</span>]]</font> <small>[ [[User Talk:Baltro|<span style="color:orangered">'''talk'''</span>]] ]</small> 22:47, 29 November 2008 (UTC)

::Well, not to be mean or anything, but you seem to get angry at people very quickly. And you also tend to mean srs bsns a little too often. - <font face="times new roman">[[User:GalaxiaD|<span style="color:purple">'''GalaxiaD'''</span>]]</font><font face="times new roman"> <small>^{[[User Talk:GalaxiaD|<span style="color:black">'''Talk'''</span>]]}</small></font> 04:08, 24 November 2008 (UTC)

::::If you do it too often, it is. At least, that's what I think. If done towards hard work or vandals, srs bsns is good, but all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. - <font face="times new roman">[[User:GalaxiaD|<span style="color:purple">'''GalaxiaD'''</span>]]</font><font face="times new roman"> <small>^{[[User Talk:GalaxiaD|<span style="color:black">'''Talk'''</span>]]}</small></font> 00:36, 25 November 2008 (UTC)

:::::Even if that's true, that should have no bearing on how he performs as an administrator (seeing as how even speaking theoretically, the only person that could be negatively affected would be Shadowcrest -- since he'd be dull).  &ndash; [[User:Defiant Elements|<font color="black">Defiant Elements</font>]] 00:46, 25 November 2008 (UTC)

==== Neutral ====

:*Why do I need an excessive amount of experience here when I've gained more than enough elsewhere? Ofc, I need some experience here so that I actually know stuff about the users and the culture etc., but that's really it once the basics have been covered.

:*You want me to point you to a policy, but you list that as one of my faults above? I'm confused :/  --<font face="vivaldi" size="3">[[User:Shadowcrest|<font color="Steelblue">Shadow</font>]][[User talk:Shadowcrest|<font color="Steelblue">crest</font>]]</font> 20:08, 15 November 2008 (UTC)</s>

:I'm a terrible mainspace editor, what are you talking about :p

:Actually, in recent memory, I've gotten angry once. And what resulted from it was, ironically, a self-ban, because I knew I lost my temper and my replies became increasingly unacceptable. I am generally aware of how I'm acting, so losing my temper and going outside the bounds of good taste is unlikely. However, I acknowledge your opposition, and since I lack fact to refute it, ok.  --<font face="vivaldi" size="3">[[User:Shadowcrest|<font color="Steelblue">Shadow</font>]][[User talk:Shadowcrest|<font color="Steelblue">crest</font>]]</font> 00:36, 16 November 2008 (UTC)

*<s>'''Wondering'''why every one of your edits is "minor." </s> <font face="centaur">&ndash; [[User:MaskedMarth|MaskedMarth]] ^{([[User talk:MaskedMarth|t]] [[Special:Contributions/MaskedMarth|c]])}</font> 11:14, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

:Because I mark them minor by default (look in preferences, you'll see the box somewhere). Does that somehow make me less capable?  --<font face="vivaldi" size="3">[[User:Shadowcrest|<font color="Steelblue">Shadow</font>]][[User talk:Shadowcrest|<font color="Steelblue">crest</font>]]</font> 15:43, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

:::I contribute to other Wikias, where setting everything as minor is common practice. And since Wikia saves your preferences across the board, I can't just uncheck the default box only for SmashWiki, and not having to check the box each edit was the entire point of hitting it by default. Since it would be dumb for me to tell you you patrol RC wrong, I don't know what I am expected to do. Courtesy here is not courtesy everywhere- indeed, setting everything to minor is possibly even the "expected" practice at GuildWiki- and it never really occured to me here. Having been at GuildWiki for nearly a year and a half, I think it is fair to say I'm familiar with how wikis work, even though I can't do all the advanced .css / .js stuff that Sky can.  --<font face="vivaldi" size="3">[[User:Shadowcrest|<font color="Steelblue">Shadow</font>]][[User talk:Shadowcrest|<font color="Steelblue">crest</font>]]</font> 23:43, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

::::I was unaware of the general practices at other Wikias, so my concerns are quelled. Perhaps I'll write up guidelines concerning minor edits if any problems actually do arise. That said, I cast my opinion. <font face="centaur">&ndash; [[User:MaskedMarth|MaskedMarth]] ^{([[User talk:MaskedMarth|t]] [[Special:Contributions/MaskedMarth|c]])}</font> 00:28, 21 November 2008 (UTC)

*'''Neutral'''  I honestly don't know what to think.  I know he'd use the tools correctly, plus he's active, but he has a tendency to get on people's nerves.  Plus, he's kinda got a low edit count.  He's newer than me, but it doesn't mean either of us are underqualified.  My vote changes as the edit count goes up, and if he can stick with his goal of becoming a bit more benevolent.  '''[[User:Cheezperson|<span style="color:gold">Cheez</span><span style="color:red">person</span>]]''' {[[User talk:Cheezperson|<span style="color:steelblue">talk</span>]]}[[Special:Contributions/Cheezperson|<span style="color:silver">stuff</span>]]''' 05:52, 25 November 2008 (UTC)

:Edit count doesn't mean basically anything. Does not editing as much as others (and I somehow suspect I will find a higher ratio of user:main should I check quite a few users) somehow make me incapable of adminstrating?  --<font face="vivaldi" size="3">[[User:Shadowcrest|<font color="Steelblue">Shadow</font>]][[User talk:Shadowcrest|<font color="Steelblue">crest</font>]]</font> 15:24, 25 November 2008 (UTC)
