What if...
she goes mad and starts suspending people left and right? Or closes down a bunch of threads?
There could be a big mess to clean up if she decides to go all terrorist on us. Religous fundamentalist...position of power...scary.
Lets ride this one out though, yeeha!

Welcome !
You commented elsewhere about being too picky.
I wish I was disciplined enough to be picky. It gets tiresome after awhile and one lets things slip. I hope you bring both a different veiwpoint and some more rigor to it all.
Welcome!!!

I know she will be a nightmare.
I don't need evidence to support my position. But then, neither does she, so psychogodgirl can hardly complain.

"To whom much is given, much is expected"
AdminFaith, welcome, and may your participation as a moderator help revise your (and others) opinion(s) of moderation on this board.
There seem to be a lot of detractors here, and to them I say: do you want the job?
Yes faith has made some comments, but she is not alone in that regard and I have seen the like from both sides.
I consider the motto "To whom much is given, much is expected" to be operative.
Enjoy.

I consider the motto "To whom much is given, much is expected" to be operative.
Personally, I favor "with great power comes great responsibility", or even "criminals are a superstitious, cowardly lot."

god bless america!
seriously, i doubt faith will be a problem. she's been pretty sensible lately. i think if anything this is a good solution to her issues with the administration here, make her understand concerns, etc. plus, she can be our "token fundamentalist moderator." i mean, we have a few christian mods, sure. but they're pretty civil, moderate, and well, evolutionist.
the whole debate's kind of ludicrous anyways. if antyhing, this might even things out a bit here, like affirmitive action.
that is, if she's sticking around. if she is, well, congrats faith!

I still think Buzsaw would have made a much better admin than... well anyone.

How ridiculous. You are comparing Buzzsaw to Faith?
There is no comparison. Obviously you are dealing in stereotypes.

i wasn't trying to. i just enjoyed debating with buzsaw, as i do faith. if i were to compare the two, i'd have to say that faith is decidedly a lot less prone to crackpotism.
anyways, i prefer stereo-types to mono-types, but i think 5.1-types are the best.
[editted to change the joke in the subject line to something more subtlely ironic]

Re: faith as admin.
Faith has been appearing and not speaking. Not like her.
God knows what she's up to.

Either she's trying to scare us or she has something planned.
