Usually, the order is admin, super mod, and forum mod. Right now, we only have forum mods. Super mods pop in occasionally, but for the most part, there's nothing. We lack admins so we can't get any of the mods to the forum that we all want like a star system and arcade, etc. I think we're doing fine without super mods for now because we don't really have that much activity. I think we can all agree that we need admins here to keep things interesting, what does everyone else think?

You know he's right. It's a fairly modest request/suggestion as well. Hard to deny.
The thing is, admins by themselves are just smods with control over user privileges.
What you really want are forum hacks, which for the most part require programmer intervention by modifying the vB php source. Moreover whenever you upgrade vB (in response to vulnerabilities exploited by Turkish hackers, say) you erase all hacks, which must then be manually reinstalled.
Shadowblazer used to do our hacks, but he's been lost to the Real World for quite some time. I PMed War Lord recently asking that something be done about the hacks, and volunteering my services; we'll see if anything comes about.
Hacks=so easy to implement.
If Warlord would be willing to give a lowly moderator such as myself access to the FTP, I would love to install hacks...I have all the time in the world.
<SUCCESSOR> Its Shadowblazer's dark essence invading the forums
We also need admins to be the final word on ban decisions, that way we could have avoided the whole mess with Glenn and Lilith's banning.

Please make me a mod because I'm pretty cool.
Same here. Well, except I'm not a mod...Hacks=so easy to implement.

Actually, I wouldn't mind being a ZC forums mod, seeing as I'm like, always on and those are the forums with the most trouble.(Double posts, useless threads, etc.)
Whatever happened to the arcade anyway?
(Any comments I make are not meant to be disrespectful or impertinent, but just a good community desire to improve life here at AGN)
The arcade went away with an upgrade. Really, almost all of the nice features go away with upgrades.

If Warlord makes me an administrator I promise to do my best to disappoint him as spectacularly as possible.
Remember guys if you vote for me you vote for the person who you know can actually deliver the results he promised!
I have volunteered to help a few times, especially getting the quest database back up. I am on here a lot so I would hope that I could at least be considered if there is any change happening.
