    Default New Admin

    I would invite you all to applaud ChickPea on a new promotion to admin status.

    We have Robbie the site owner and had two of us extra admins and I felt that we could have done with another very regular member being around in case we needed some admin support. ChickPea has been an outstanding Mod for a number of years and manages a lot of spam, the monthly challenges including the archiving of past winners, the annual awards and also does the guild promotion and twitter account. Never a day goes by without ChickPea posting and modding the site and keeping it all tidy. Having already earned the honourable contributor award for guild maintenance it seemed fit that admin permissions be granted.

    Good news!
    Yet I admit that I don't know what admins do.

    Congrats, Chickpea. Be sure to sneak in and add some unique user titles or vandalize something with your new power LOL.

    On the guild? Not a lot. Delete spam, update the contests, keep the marketplace section clean and archived, archive contest entries... the guild is pretty painless when it comes to drama. An admin might gain things like the ability to create new user titles and groups, whereas a mod has "visible" powers such as editing/removing/relocating posts. A mod likely won't have full back end access, and neither does an admin, but an admin has notably more backend access compared to a mod. Only the site owner has full power over the actual forum as situated on the host / ftp etc.
