Hexed is usually on, Yermom is there and so is Gamer and I'm there on Friday and Saturday. I haven't heard/seen any '''major''' complaints about flammers, bullies, etc. the times that I've logged on. If you guys have a problem and no one's there to solve it, go to #wikia. They'll usually be there immediately. You have to think, what's the average age around here, 13-16? There will be plenty of immature insults being flung around. You can't really help it. But if Kryten and the other staff agree, be my guest. It wouldn't hurt to have a couple more ops online at different times to handle problems of this kind. -[[User:Azul81677|<font color="#4682B4">Azul</font>]] <sup><small>('''''[[User talk:Azul81677|talk]] ・[[Special:Contributions/Azul81677|contribs]]''''')</small></sup> 00:20, October 13, 2009 (UTC) | Hexed is usually on, Yermom is there and so is Gamer and I'm there on Friday and Saturday.

1. Admins in IRC obviously don't have to be staff here. If there is someone(s) in IRC often who you guys think would do a '''fair''' job of keeping an eye on the channel, suggest them here. I beseech you, please think carefully about this...don't pick someone because they're your friend, or they "seem" nice. Think about people on the channel who act in a responsible manner and you think would be capable of watching and handling these things. Adminning (is that a word now?) can be a pretty tough job at times. (And likewise, if you get picked and do not feel you can handle it, please let us know. We don't want to pressure you into doing something you do not want to.) | 1. Admins in IRC obviously don't have to be staff here.

Make screen caps, copy and paste the text as suggested above, or any other means you can think of. If the issue is especially serious, let the Wikia IRC staff know right away and show them what you've got; please let us know as well so we can help them take means to stop it. | ||
In addition, I want to say as an admin I do my best to be fair and helpful, as do the other staffers around here. But I am human and I do make mistakes and have bad days and so on, again, as do the other staffers. I know we have a few folks here who do butt heads from time to time since they're very passionate about ''Kingdom Hearts'', and want to make this wiki the best it can be. We certainly don't expect everyone to hold hands and sing happy songs of Atlantica, but if someone here feels like they are being especially singled out for poor treatment by an individual, even if they are an admin, please let someone know. And if you ever think I've acted poorly towards you, please let me know.

This is just an idea, but I think it would fix this voting problem. We don't want to make a user an Op just because they had alot of votes from friends. We want a user/users to become an Op to help out on the IRC.}} | This is just an idea, but I think it would fix this voting problem.
