    Could you please at least give me 3 good reasons why I should promote a forum administrator? This doesn't mean I'll go ahead and promote one but I will keep it in mind if the reasons are valid.

    The reason I promoted Zambiana to Forum Administrator on Skyblock forums was because everyone wanted a forum name change. Now that I have added an addon on both forums we don't really need a forum administrator and I can't think of any other reasons why we need one.

    I only have one reason. Birthdays and other personal info change. This including profile pictures and stuff.

    - Plus I'm sure your name has to be at least 8 or something characters long when using the name changer (unless that's only on skyblock) so shorter name change requests can be done
    - Can do name or profile picture changes if people have inappropriate names or avatars
    - Requested perm bans can be done since they can be unbanned or old requested ones can be unbanned faster

    What a forum admin can do:
    - Change errors in birthdays and names
    -Unban anyone who appeals
    -Be like your assistant, Take care of things that you can't, when your busy etc.
    -He can help in the help section
    -Help and read customer support emails./ [email protected]
    -Be like the head mod. Watch and help the mod team and shape it.
    -Change change profile pics if they are inappropriate.

    What some people that I know can do if they were a forum admin:
    Hidden Content:
    You must reply before you can see the hidden data contained here.
    So when you think about it, there's a lot that Forum Admins can do.

    Yes it is a bit hard to moderate forums 100% while moderating in game.
    Normal mods might miss some stuff.

    A forum admin with limited admin panel access could:
    • Edit basic user information(ie: birth dates/name errors).
    • Match ip's for suspected ban evading accounts and deal with those accounts accordingly.
    • Edit foul profile pictures and signatures.
    • Unban accepted forum ban appeals.
    • Have access to the spam cleaner for spambot accounts.
    • Handle/clean the messy forums as they would have no in game perms and therefore more time.
    Promote me bb. <3
    I work for free, you love me, and I might even send you one of those margarita pizzas I know you love. :PP

    That's why there needs to be a forum moderator who effectively doesn't play minecraft and can just live on the forums
