User blog comment:Stargaze66/You all seriously need to shape up./@comment-1333071-20140111232533

Okay I've been stalking the wiki no big deal, but this blog was so powerful to me that I felt highly inclined to log in to comment.

Stareh is 150% correct. Admins are appointed only by respect, if it's the respect of the community or of the admin staff, admins are respected and therefore appointed. It's a long time to rise through the ranks, but once you are an admin, you definitely deserve the respect that comes with the position.

So why am I reading that nobody's being given that respect? In case nobody remembers, the fact that I wasn't respected is the reason why I left. I would think that it would jar you guys to start giving more respect to your leaders, but apparently not.

An order is an order. There doesn't need to be a rhyme or reason for the order, but it is an order that needs to be followed. "Because I said so" should legitimately be enough (unless you're concerned about abuse, but that shouldn't be an issue here). In my humble, college-level opinion, the staff listed above are the most respectable staff around all of wikia and therefore, y'all should follow their direction to a tee, or leave.

I'm really tired of hearing about this community, which has so much potential, not following the orders of an admin or other staff member. It's not that difficult, you do it every day. You listen to teachers, parents, counselors, presidents, other law enforcement officers... I mean, seriously, the list goes on and on. It's like reading a sign that says "Don't eat the fish in this lake." I mean, there's a million different reasons why you shouldn't eat the fish, but the biggest one is that somebody told you not to, so you shouldn't do it.

I'm kind of sad having to type this whole thing. It's been since May. And this is still a problem. I don't really understand. It sucks.

But, staff! I applaud all of you. You're great at your jobs and I don't see any issues (other than this one) hanging around. Not that you need my approval or anything. So... good job. I respect y'all as leaders and writers and I will most definitely continue to do so.

All right... Forest out. Seriously, I'm out.
