Just give 'em the snazzy 'Administrator' title beneath their name, no actual powers. Then everyone would think you were the Admin. Posts: 4575 | From: Racoon City | Registered: Jan 2003

If the best poster is voted on by the mods, it's pretty much a given that they'll be good and just go around locking threads, banning people they don't like and posting "who's in charge now, beyotch?!" in every forum.
All in all, a bad (but fun) idea.

Funny thing is we discussed this for April Fools. Instead of giving it to a member, he did it to an alias. No one was the wiser. I'm sure he undid by now though.

I think most people would be bored by the average Admin day. Reply to a couple PMs, answer some questions on Feedback, maybe add some custom titles. Not exactly thrill a minute stuff. Any of the things that people would consider "fun" would certainly be off-limits.
Besides, I guarantee everyone would be disappointed by the banning process. It was a huge letdown to discover the lack of fuss when you ban someone. I think they made it as mundane as possible. Checking a box next to "Disable ability to post" doesn't exactly make you feel like you're raining thunderbolts from the sky.
Anyways, if this was a serious proposition, the answer is no.

Mandard would rue the day I was given adminstrator priveleges. He'd come back the next day and all the colors and backgrounds would be changed.

cant you just drive it through one of those drive through washers??
I would send out emails to the ppl i banned... saying things like "you are being banned because you are an idiot" and fun stuff like that.
*sigh* I bet it could be a fun job mandard... you just need some creative inspiration... a muse perhaps...
