This is a reply to both of you.

I was more upset at the idea of making more admins and getting rid of me, then just getting rid of me as admin because like I said there is not much to do as an admin that cannot be done as a supreme mod and if someone replaces me as an admin, what would they be doing better then me Besides posting? We dont need anymore admins.

So why should I stay admin? Seniority, I have been here a long time. If ADMIN stuff needs to be done then I am just a message away. I am here if NEEDED. Heres an example, lets say you have a small town with 3 police officers. The third police officer is never needed because not a lot goes on in a town with a population of less then 50, why replace him if he is not needed? Like I said, I was more upset at the deadmining me and then admining someone else idea because it made little sense.

Now if I am needed then I will help, but im not needed. So how will replacing me all of a sudden make the replacement person more needed? So why keep me as admin? Again, if we do need me in the future, im already here. I have expereince, and I am pretty sure Chruser Trusts me. Thats another thing, I think if you are admin you need to be trusted 100% by the staff because you could really fuck something up with privs, or gain money through unethical practices that being an admin would allow you to do. I am already trusted and have been here so the trust issue dosent come up with keeping me on staff but it would come up with replacing me (Even if my replacement is a long term member, he is not an admin currently and I am so I should be more trusted right?)

Next, if Chruser ever needed money to keep the server up (Or ww) or one of them decided to quit, they can count on me to at least help with that. I am one of the few people who has money that can help. I dont think I would be so inclined to help if I was dumped from staff. I am a good emergency guy to have around, whether we need money, or a server (Since I do own a web hosting company with lots of servers).

Oh and the History. I HAVE done a lot of zelaron, even tho most of it was a long time ago. Oh and I have done a lot for chruser himself, and I even recently redirected all my IOwnJoo Traffic to his image hosting site (Thats pretty big for him). I have sent Chruser money before, I still offer to this day. I have helped him on other things and he is still considered a good friend to me that can come to me for favors anytime he needs to.

So with all that considered, I dont think it would be a very fair/smart thing to take me off staff. I am letting it known that I want to be kept as an admin simply because I think being an admin proves that I am dedicated to the cause and am a very trusted person that is very useful to keep. I have history here, I like it here, I have a lot to offer if needed and I want to stay being at the top of the leaders/trust ladder.

So, will deadmining me, which would probably cause me to feel betrayed in a way, and replacing me with Sov, will the end result be Better for Zelaron in the Future or Worse? It seems like an obvious answer now that I have explained everything.

And if deadmining of me ever became a Serious thing, I would be pretty insulted to get deadmined without having a conversation with Chruser about it beforehand.
