What's with all these usergroups?

JA and I had the idea of having another election next year, but not getting rid of the last President for another year. Then PC would have two Prezzies rotating in and out every year.

That's when I came up with the fantastic idea of naming ourselves Consuls instead. Firstly, everyone(well, alot of people) think that I own PC. If I wasn't called President, that misconception would likely vanish.
Secondly, Consul goes with the two-leader idea. And when can Jake be Admined so we can free up the title Praetor for Vice Prezzies?

Consuls and Praetors are both temp leaders, so it would make a heck of a lot more sense.


Well-- Sorry to Disagree But this is really Stupid Britt. None of these are good!

And well This should be taken in the Mod Lounge.
 
Well we will just see the day you were elected, we we have an election before it, and then the new pres will take over on the day you were elected. This sound the easiest and the most logical.
 
Two presidents is a little excessive :s
One president is enough imo, and whenever the next election date is decided on it'd be cool to have different people (as in the current P and VP wouldnt enter) -that way PC can have a fresh face every time ^^
 
Hmm, it almost seems as if this should be taken to the mod lounge, or possibly even the HQ, even though it's not a priority. Well, it seems like we're going back to my original idea(funny, I concepted this idea, then I get voted in..) of having one take over on election day, etc.

The problem is, election day is once every four years('twas in honor of the US elections). Should it be every one or two years instead?
 
I'd prefer a new president every year. I don't want anyone on PC pulling a John Howard on us...

And just out of curiousity, how did a topic about someone wanting to know about usergroups turned into a debate about the election?
 
Every year, because few of us will reach 4 years. ^^;; Besides... new blood! We need to give newer popular members a chance. ^^
 
Ya, four years is a long time in forum life ^^; forum life changes relatively quickly over even a period of a few months.
I'd go for every year or shorter (like 6/8months) ^^
 
CC - We have the right to voice our own opinion. If anything, your idea was stupid, moving it to the lounge.

I agree with the Praetor idea. Why not just call them Sub-Admins? o.O
 
The only thing with "sub-admin" is that it does make it sound as though they're quite far below an admin. They have as much access to the admincp (not as sure about jake?) as the regular admins (apart from steve, casey, and kwesi), just that they don't have a site.
 
Well, why not let Jake and Andy be Admins, while the rest of the Admins are Community Leaders/S(uper)-Admins/something? o.O
 
That idea was tried, back when Abby first got adminship and then got shot down. o.o

They didn't like it, so Abby went down to the "Abby" usergroup.


As for the election, the 1st Tuesday in November each year is a great time to do it. ^_^;; I want to run it again~ 6 months really isn't long enough. :S


...and as far as I know, Skun has basically everything in the admincp, minus like... vBOptions or something? Or Usergroups? He's missing like 1 or 2 :P

...bleh
 
I quite like the admin and s-admin/comm. leader idea ^^
It puts less emphasis on their different accesses since there isn't really all that much difference apart from the site aspect
 
Steve turned that idea down awhile ago though...

And we all know how stubborn he can be...
