I just became Admin on another site. I was going to make a topic for it to help get new members because it's relatively new, but I figured I'd get in trouble for doing so.
...so why did you make a topic about it at all?
I was really excited and I made it before I knew what I was doing.
oooookaaaaaay.... y'know admin of a site isn't like getting a nobel prize or anything. :U
awww, stop being mean. Congrats :)

I know it just I never thought I'd get a position like that. And I've made many improvements already. The creator of the site is new to the forum thing so my knowledge of forums will help a lot. And thanks Damaris. And could I maybe get some tips from an experienced Admin?
Wrap yourself in an aura of infallibility and mystique. Don't try to be friendly with anyone, and say it "helps you maintain objectivity". Use obscure and hard to understand words (longer is better) but be sure you use them in manners that are correct.
Don't listen to wiseguys :P
K. It's going to be hard to do that with my ADHD.

i dunno, Llearch seems to manage just fine. >:3
I'm 16 with ADHD. He has had years to learn how to control it. Although, I do know when I have to be serious.
You've had years. I've been in control since I was twelve.
Well, I'm starting to get control but I still sometimes act up in school.

That's not the ADHD, though. That's just the insanity.
If there are more than one admin, make sure to discuss things as much as possible. Don't let admin disagreements ooze over onto the regular portions of the forum - keep a united front.
Me and the other admin, creator of the forum, get along pretty well. We been trying to have a pokemon battle but we've been having problems connecting. He's said he's going to get a new ds.
