Soldier Elite wrote: Ah, okay. Let me explain. Before there was a Bureaucrat that tried to take over the wiki. He took away the rights of every Admin, including me. Bureaucrat rights are hard to get rid of because Bureaucrats can't take away the rights of a Bureaucrat, but they can take away the rights of an Admin. It happened during when I was an Admin. Banning a Bureaucrat doesn't mean anything, since they can actually unban themselves.

But do you get my point? If a Bureaucrat simply goes crazy, it's going to be very hard to stop it. So I'm suggesting not to get too many Bureaucrats on this wiki. All a Bureaucrat is is an Admin who can give other people Rollback and Admin rights. It's basically an Admin level 2.

Bureaucrats are basically Admins, they are just in charge of getting people new rights. I understand what a bureaucrat is, I've been on a Wikia for several years. Anyways, I now understand what happened. Although, do you need to make a limit for ALL users? Like I said, I think there should be no limits for staff. Only give bureaucrat rights to users that been on the wiki for several months, if not over a year, who have made a great contributions and constructive edits, users who can be trusted with powers, such as giving them rollbacks first, then admin, then see where they go with that first. There can be many great users at this wiki who will eventually make a great rollbacker, ect., but if there is a full limit on the rights group, they won't get a chance to be a rollback when we all know they deserve it. I disagree with this topic, and should only give powers to trusted users over a long-time period.
