New Change: Everyone Is An Adminstrator

Nate · 2008-04-01T05:17:39Z

I'm a participant on a couple of other web forums, but whenever I'm at them, I feel incredibly frustrated. Why? Because I can't access the admin control panel. It's incredibly maddening, and I got to thinking that probably a lot of people feel the same way. So on a test basis, I have made everyone an administrator. You will see that a lot of people now have their color as red, and you will find a link to the "Administration Control Panel" at the bottom of every page. However, because of some changes I made to the default template recently, you may have some trouble finding it. I'm working on it, but it is there. I always like to try things out before dismissing them outright, and that's the case here. If people don't act responsibly, then I will end it. This does mean that you can now ban people, but please use this power responsibly. If this doesn't work out, then we'll return to normal. Also, please keep on the lookout for a few other things I will be implementing quite soon. EDIT: APRIL FOOLS!

Next thing, Meep, you'll be worrying about our bodily fluids and water supply. :wink:

It's okay. I *could* change my color, but why insult myself?

See, it's so much fun ordering people to do the work for you.

Like this: "Oy! Can someone fix the typo in the title of this thread? It's disgusting!"

=P I was thinking: Oooo! So cool!

Then I thought that the only thing I would do as an admin would be to find some way to make my name a prettier color.

I'm like that song stuck in your head; I come and I go, but never truly dissapear.

And apparently I also write a blog.

Thanks Nate!

*might secretly be a McCarthyist*

Nate's secretly conspiring to make YWS a Communist board. Think about it, if everyone on this board was an administrator, we'd all have the same amount of power and we'd all be in control of everything.

Of course, people would try to take advantage of this, but we could just exile them to the Monarchy-run back-up YWS site.
