Why do admins nd 15 rep power?

[Superman]

I'm a big fan of inequality, and I see no real reason why they shouldn't be allowed a set rep power above that of most members. You can say it's hypocritical or unfair all you like, but they're in charge and it doesn't hurt anyone anyway

[Ostinato]

it doesn't give them the right to do whatever they like? um yes it does. they're management, without them there wouldn't be a forum.

Lol no they don't

If that's the case then is it acceptable for Gordon Brown to get absolutely drunk and drive on the wrong side of the road then run an old woman down and murder his wife....

OH BUT IT'S OKAY BECAUSE HE IS RUNNING THE COUNTRY.

Fair enough it may not be on such a scale - but it is the same principle.

With power comes responsibility... and quite clearly some admins just can't handle it.

Edit: and yes superman I can say what I like - and I just have lol, likewise you are entitled to your opinion and I respect that.

What a load of crap... Without members, MAD wouldn't be GM, yoshi wouldn't be a SM, nvrspk wouldn't be whatever he is and so on. Members come first, then management, because without members there would be no reason to have management to look over management and an empty board. Members are more important than Management. It's like having staff working in a shop that gets no customers. Waste of time and money.

I am still waiting for management to respond to the comments, because at the moment I am seeing no real comments or anyone dealing with it. Perhaps MAD is reading and just laughing, not knowing that his 'smugness' is gaining him no respect.

Yeah I wasn't saying you couldn't say it, just that it's not a sound argument. As for the Gordon Brown analogy that's different as it's 1) law and 2) potentially damaging. Rep power is nothing to do with law of what you can and can't do, as technically it is still possible to get the same or above them

Precisely. Which is why the 'members voice' needs to be listened to. Maybe we should start suggesting people move over to Opinion FTW, at least the 'superior' are talking to the 'inferior.'

What comments are they? I will be happy to answer them if I can

Read the large amount of threads in this forum. It'll be easier than me writing them out. I'll pick out a few from memory:

- How comes there is a lack of communication from higher staff when it comes to changes to the system?
- When are the rules being completely scrapped and re-written so members don't click on the Rules link and think "what the hell is all this?!?"
- Why does the management not ask for peoples opinions on, for example, catagories which no one wanted to begin with, other than a very small minority?
- Why is 8Freak8 still listed as a GM when he quit his jobs many moons ago? Don't tell me because he did aload of work, because that means nothing. If MAD or whoever has enough time to make new catagories, he surely has enough time to make a new member group to put 'Important Ex-Habbox Staff' in. It just shows you're caring about someone's legacy when what he left behind has completely changed.

That's all I can think of for now.

Can i also comment on closing threads?


Why close a thread? i mean, Dont close a thread becasue you think you solved it, just let the thread die, dont close it and cover it up.
