Beeblebrox ( talk · contribs) – Well, it's been three months since I filed my first RFA, which went down in flames because of a very unfortunate edit summary [1]I had left only a few weeks before submitting my RFA. The community was very worried that this poor choice might represent a pattern that would result in my biting users with the power of admin tools backing me up. It was a fair objection, although one incident does not make a pattern, I was essentially asked to prove it by going three months without making a similar error. I believe I have done that. In the intervening three months I have had a few close encounters with trolls, been the subject of personal attacks, and dealt with numerous new users, and nothing like the incident that sunk my first RFA has occurred. In brief, the reason I stated at my first RFA for wanting to be an admin is that almost every single time I ask for an admin to do something, they do it. I figure that means I have the judgement necessary to wield the mop myself, and I can reduce the admin workload in the areas I work by eliminating the middleman.
