Forum:HOW do I become and Admin?
Hey peeps. IF you look back a few dumps, I dumped my first question: "How do you protect pages?" Well, I got some responses that wanted me to insist that their IS a cabal, but whatever.
Some goon invented the idea of Admins protecting and unprotecting pages ONLY. Jeez. SO, HOW DO I BECOME AN ADMIN YOU N00BS?!??!?!?!?! Tell me everything........

I have a better question: How do you spell/type so badly? It's somewhat amazing, really. I don't understand it. ~ -- 05:11, 6 January, 2011 (UTC)
- If you mail me $251.84 I will make you into an admin. -- The Zombiebaron 05:23, January 6, 2011 (UTC)
- Is that the preferred customer discount or something? Because when I asked, you said it was three easy payments of $251.84. I was even going to sign up for the ZombieBaron card so I could get frequent flyer miles! --—John Lydon 19:06, January 6, 2011 (UTC)
- Sort of. But it's really more of a ponzi scheme. -- The Zombiebaron 20:01, January 6, 2011 (UTC)

You are all missing the point
He did not misspell, he asked a lyric question:
“ | Oh say, how do I become. How do I become what I yearned for all these years. How do I become whole again. How do I become the man of the world? How do I become the dream that has haunted me for so long. How do I become? And Admin - will you support me on this oh so long journey of wonders during which I become? | ” |

- Hey, doesn't it mean that my son can be opped? Cool! I'm pretty sure that an 8 months old baby can manage this place much better than us lot. ~ 14:46, January 6, 2011 (UTC)
- It does seem rather likely. Why not try it? ~ -- 14:53, 6 January, 2011 (UTC)
- Because the baby would go crazy after three days managing this place. --~ 14:57, January 6, 2011 (UTC)

Man
I've spent half my post-divorce life on this site and I still have no idea HOW I do become and Admin. Someone once told me that the first step would be to stop being a raging prick to everyone all the time, but I consider that suspect advice.

More to the point...
...why would anyone want to be an admin? Minimum wage, no holiday, long hours, cleaning out the noob enclosure and so on - it sucks.
Nah, I'm lying. It's great, especially the bonus country club membership. Plus it makes you automatically cool and sexy, of course. Rabbi Techno kvetch Contribs FOXES 16:11, January 9, 2011 (UTC)

- Poor thing. Yet he manages to live with it... could make for a good inspirational thingy. ~ 17:06, 9 January 2011
- Originally, we planned to keep him locked up in a secret room like the aristocracy do every other generation or so when one of them gives birth to something so inbred even they don't want anything to do with it, but then he developed this ability to turn into slime and escape through the cracks in the floor.

- Oh, so that's why I sometimes come on to find my stuff covered in slime? Eww... ~ 19:32, 9 January 2011
