It's a fatal trap for admins, and even more so once you accumulate a
few more jobs (on the local wiki or cross-wiki/Foundation level), to
never quite get around to doing the thing that was so much fun and
lured you here in the first place, i.e. writing an encyclopedia ...

Bored? Sick to death of policy wrangling? Write something!

Also: If editing a wiki starts to lose its appeal but you want to be
productive, there are many "wanted photos" lists on en:wp and on
Commons for you to go out and fill out a bit.
