:::No, but I do have something to say. You guys all expect Manticore to be like a perfect, because all of these other higher ups say that he is, don't deny it. You guys who are voting for him are, because you have to backbone to go against RR, GPT, and ED. I don't like his attitude, nice guy I know. Which I respect him and everything, don't get me wrong, but I feel that the admins have made Manticore sound like some "God" like user, which he isn't. I don't believe that he will be forgiving like Ryan would be. Ryan has told me about his belief that Admins should be forgiving and not do stuff for people that he likes so that they can get ahead on the website and don't deny it. I know first hand.

::::I don't expect Manticore to be perfect, nor do I think for a sec that he would be forgiving.  I've had my problems with the way he does things and I've challenged him for it before.  However, that doesn't mean I think he can't do his job.  He will do it, and he will perform admirably.  I will and have stuck up to RR and GPT publicly and privately on several occasions.  I have and continue to press them on issues of how they deal with the community, how they can improve the way they handle situations, etc.  However, Manticore is already a community leader (as is Ryan, but that's beside the point and it isn't about which of these two is better), and his style of moderation is already applied.  He already is contributing to the administrative and moderation duties of Halopedia and doing things like sending greetings to members.  Unlike Ryan, if Manticore were handled the crown of Administrator, he really would only be getting access to a few extra buttons because of his existing social status within the community.  From a social perspective, Manticore practically is an administrator already. --[[User:Forgottenlord|forgottenlord]] 22:43, 26 August 2007 (UTC)
