Part of me wants to say "sure! let him be admin!" but I have this underlying feeling that it wouldn't be the best choice at the same time. Mantis, I've had some time to get to know you. I realized that you are extrememly hesitant when it comes to standing your ground or showing any sign of discipline onto users.

Another thing I've noticed is that ya just kinda sit there as things heat up, never saying anything exactly. I'd hate for you to get into power, just to be walked on like a carpet because you're somebody's friend.

All I'm saying is that there are no friends as an admin, know your responsibility and tread carefully. I wrote this whole-heartedly to tell you to keep your eyes pierced.

I also feel you need a learning curve on your path to becomming admin, being a chat mod leads to a great learning curve because you get to handle situations that may strike up in chats (ETC). Having such a giant leap from normal user to moderator is just something I feel is "iffy".

But besides this, good luck buddy. Heed the things I've said though, they'll help in the future. This pretty much sums up my opinion, as well. And to clarify - "No friends as admin" means you treat your friends as normal users when trouble comes. You can still treat them as friends when not in trouble.
