That's the point. You don't need this, this and this to be an admin. There is no list of requirements.

Paddy, I havn't spoken to you before... and as a first impression you have not shown well.
Some of the stuff you are saying is appearing as lies, some stuff may be exaggerated truth but whatever you are saying is not respectful nor anything we really want here. Please be polite and respectful

I think this discussion is far too personal and it's just airing the dirty linen as they say. It's different if we discuss the future of the forum, or the nature of the tribe.. etc. etc. those things can turn into a debate too.. (or for instance if me and the Islander have a big mad debate about homosexuality being a choice we're still going to like each other in the end even if we don't like each others opinions)... but this is all so personal, and it's bickering. And it's none of my business.

I think discussion of this nature is healthy. Often unpleasant and heated, definitely, but still healthy for a growing, developing community such as this. I agree with this. As far as the application being vague, that really is the point (like Click said). Not so much due to the requirements not being defined, but more because we want you guys to be creative and honest. If we said "We want someone who is ___, ___, and ___!" then you could all pretend to have those qualities I'm not trying to be insulting, it's just the truth. Ricky used the example of job interviews. People say what wants to be heard. I know not all of you would, but it's just much easier to not tell you just what we're looking for.

I personally think, that the new admins were chosen because "They were cool" or was very friendly with the female admins. Hi. c: Can people seriously stop acting like the new admins are complete n00bs? I think I do a decent job, and would personally like to believe I was chosen not because I can talk to a camera. Thaaaaaaaaaaanks.

In that case, I sincerely hope clarification will be sought if it is uncertain based on an application whether or not I/someone else have a specific quality for the job that I/someone else may have absentmindedly neglected to mention. It'd just be a shame to be tossed aside or overlooked due to not mentioning something the admins are particularly looking for.

I'm just advising caution is all, in not being too hasty to look over individuals. Maybe I'm preaching to the pulpit, in which case, I'm sorry for underestimating your collective prudence. ;)

If we all just wait and see, the way things are supposed to be will finally at last be clear and so I ask, don't bicker here.

sarah - I am not saying that the new admins are n00bs. @bree - "slanderous lies" What I have said is all Fact. Yes, you may disagree with me, but I am telling the truth. Due to swearing in the next part of this message, I have placed this in a spoiler tag Why would you give a fuck Bree, Seriously? I know that you wanted me out... I knew that you were not happy with me being there.
I read a Skype Convo while I was Appearing Offline, You asked everyone in the admin chat whether you wanted me to step down.
Most of the admins didn't care what happened to me, YOU on the other hand wanted me out of there as soon as possible
I did not resign because of my grandfather, I wanted to get away from you so I had to make something up.
I don't care that I just made a personal attack, because I do not care anymore...Why should I? As far as I can see, you have given me a bad name Bree and THAT has pissed me off more than anything!
But I'm sure that you don't care at all...I would say that you are on your way to the Moderator Control Panel to ban. Fine.
PDBAZ!! I am a zombie...DEAL WITH IT!

All the admins agreed you needed to go, Paddy. Stop blaming your bad decisions on me. Yes, I was the one to suggest that you be removed from the admin team. However, everyone agreed you were out of control and, in the end, we went with my suggestion. I'm not the one who gave you a bad name, Paddy. You gave yourself a bad name with your actions. Sorry mate.

I wasn't there, so it's not really my place to judge Pad and his actions, but based on his flaming here... I can't help but feel that Bree and the others made a wise preemptive decision.
