[Commons-l] Commons-l Digest, Vol 27, Issue 10

[GerardM]

Hoi,
When there is a need to be an admin and DO something, you will either have
the buttons and DO the things that need doing or you forget about it. The
point of keeping the role of admin is that it is easy to re-connect. The
point of being forced to ask to be admin is that the chance of not bothering
any more is exactly the reason why this is a bad policy for Commons. You
lose good people in this way.
Thanks,
     GerardM


If you lose admin rights due to never using the tools, what's the big deal?
