I really didn't want to suspect ulterior motives with this plan but now I can't help it. It seems like this whole thing was a juke- a way to get that position of power that we all know you have lusted after for so long. Come up with a plan that most of us can agree with, and then conveniently fit your desires in with it, simultaneously knocking those who kept you waiting down a rung.

I don't like feeling lied to like this. Power is not part of the equation here, and if my supicions are correct, then all you're doing is changing the answer to something it wasn't intended to be.

TMD, you are still new here. i don't know what you're issue here is with me. Since you are not aware, this merge has been ongoing for the past 3 years and has not gotten much of anywhere. this discussion is to finish up that and any other conflicts.

first of all regarding the "rivalry" claim against me, that doesn't exist. if you are not aware, the latest vandalism attack was caused by RNN, local staff here agrees with that fact. GG even asked wikia staff to monitor the site. wikia staff was aware that RNN is a target and that's due to his own actions. you don't get retaliation for not doing anything... going back to the new forum idea, if we added NEW to the list. allowing that sends a direct message to RNN that whining and being disruptive will allow him to get what he wants. the second thing is that, there is a large risk that he could bring more vandals to attack if NEW is to be included. those are the reasons why, NEW was not included. Since Jet was not doing anything besides a few blocks; i had to send in a report for her otherwise this would have kept going.

i have been here longer than you and the recent new users. as far as new ideas, mine on average work better than the ones that local staff here come up with. most people here have seen me monitoring the blogs and forum, mostly dealing with RNN's behavior and removing undesirable posts.
 * how many of those hostile messages were removed by either member of local staff? i count 0 with credit to them restoring said hostile messages.

this promotion is just an idea to help bring everyone together and to show support by giving merging staff, user rights so that they don't feel like they are not gaining anything out of this. this is more or so for encouragement. if you don't agree, why don't you give reasons against rather than claiming this is a plot for power. just about everything jet tries to attempt to fix either doesn't work and i have to either fix it/provide a solution for it if you think any of this is unreasonable or inaccurate, you are free to investigate further. again, its not that i don't see her being able to help out on article content; she is has gotten ineffective as both an admin and bureaucrat. this is not about power, its about having a new set of staff who is willing and capable of maintaining the wiki.

if you wish to create your own wiki, nobody is stopping you but i will warn you on the following: you most likely won't get much farther than RNN if you are starting from scratch. so again, please try to understand the reasons behind all of this - especially the user rights. Agreed. Bleh, I'm fine in not being a bureaucrat on Nerf Wiki, or that proposed off-brand wiki (which I probably think should be named "Off-Brand Blaster Wiki"), but I am fine with being an admin/rollback. P.S. NM8, RNN has been blocked on all wikis for 2 weeks.
