Hi~ Long time no see! I don't want to come across as rude to you and I apologize if I do, but this point is totally incorrect. While the site isn't exactly lining up with applicants for the administrator position, administrator status is carefully given.

I grant you that there are some hiccups in administrators that we get now and then, but the criteria for one being chosen is their understanding of how to best utilize the wiki's tools, use grammar correctly, and the ability to properly handle community related situations. It's not a position given by popularity or the number of years spent on the wiki - and if it ever is then the community has failed as a majority for electing someone based on those reasons.

So if we have someone that gets demoted for whatever reasons and who reapplies on down the line (which has happened in the past) they aren't guaranteed to be reinstated (which again, I've watched happen in the past).

Sorry again if I came across as rude, but I felt that this needed addressing.
