Well, it certainly looks like Gordon has a lot of support, no? Defiant Elements  (talk ~ contribs) 23:50, 1 April 2007 (CDT)
 * Heh it sure does. My only concern with him being an admin is that it doesn't seem like he is very proactive in enforcing policy.  Seems like most of his contributions tend to be useful, needed, but passive, which might not be someone the bureaucrats are looking for considering recent nominations by tanaric of Auron of Neon, Harsh Language, and Dirigible who are all quite outspoken in their ideas and suggestions.  --Lania Elderfire[[Image:Pinkribbonsig.gif|My Talk]] 01:49, 2 April 2007 (CDT)
 * Ideally I think admins try to head off confrontation and encourage user communication and understanding rather than "enforce policy". My understanding is that it's preferable to resolve an issue through discussion rather than going straight to threatening people with sanctions. That said I do see what Lania is saying, whilest this looks fine, this is less encouraging, when issues to get out of hand admins need to be able to deal with them. Tanaric called me one of the nice guys in the sysop team and sure, I like to think I'm a friendly enough sort of bloke but I don't pull punches if I see someone doing the wrong thing... How do you think you'll go with dealing with people who are out of line Gordon? --Xasxas256 03:22, 2 April 2007 (CDT)
