Candidate statement
Although I'm not quite sure what to write here since this is my first RFA I'll do my best. To be honest I was somewhat surprised to receive the message on my talk page from Backsword since I had never really thought of trying for an RFA, I have been fine doing my bit to help the wiki/community as well as cleaning up some of the neglected areas including duplicate or unused images as a normal user.

Anyway while I prefer to let the community decide if they want me to become a sysop I will mention that personally I believe I have a fairly good understanding of our policies both the actual word & the overall spirit of the policy and that I feel I would be fair when it comes to any blocks I am required to do basing my decisions on policy. While I haven't been as involved in policy discussions as maybe I could of been if the community decides to give me these extra responsibilities I will do my best in the role, thanks for reading. - Kakarot   17:33, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

Support

 * 1) Obviously. Calm, mature and by now experienced in relevant areas. Backsword
 * 2) Support - But of course, it would save him some time if he was able to delete (far to much tagging) --Myria83 17:23, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * 3) Support - Who wouldn't, he most certainly deserves it :) -- Shadowphoenix   [[Image:User-Shadowphoenix Shadow Phoenix Signet.jpg|19x19px]] 22:21, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * 4) Weak Support - Calm, collected, and even handed. Though I have not see much of your contributions, I believe you could do well as a Sysop. However, as the neutrals speak of in the time of this writing, I can only support you weakly. I have confidence in your ability to use the tools responsibly, but a true test if just to give it a good go. --[[Image:User People of Antioch sig.png|Talk]] People of Antioch  17:04, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
 * 5) I feel that Kakarot is very helpful, and probably deserves a higher position. Good luck! --> Awk34   talk  17:33, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
 * 6) Support - I saw his contributions at times and he seems to know what he does. As already mentioned twice, he also appeared calm to me. I don't think we have to fear any wrong decisions he could make with sysop tools. &mdash;Zerpha[[Image:UserZerpha The Improver sig.png|talk]] The Improver 16:35, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
 * 7) Support - I find him level-headed and rational in discussions with well thought out responses. Willing to believe that sysop tools will be in good hands. -- ab.er. rant  [[Image:User Ab.er.rant Sig.png| ]] 03:18, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
 * 8) Support - After thinking it over, I believe that he'd probably do the wiki good with sysop tools. Kokuou 11:43, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
 * 9) Support - I think he will do well as a sysop, he is friendly and helpful in answering questions, has made great contributions to this wiki, and I believe seriously has the wiki's best interest in mind. As a side note to Scourge, that is a stupid reason to oppose a RfA.--[[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png |Go to Wynthyst's Talk page]] Wynthyst 11:48, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
 * 10) Support - Salome [[Image:User_salome_sig.png|19px]] 12:05, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
 * 11) Support. Kakarot is a great contributor, and I think he would handle the sysop tools well. -  anja  [[Image:User Anja Astor sig icon.png|talk]] 16:50, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
 * 12) Support. I admit that i didn't want to vote before because i just don't remember enough of this user as to put a real opinion, and i feel neutral votes tend to go too easily into the negative side of the spectrum. But exactly because of the last part, i feel that now support is needed.--Fighterdoken 23:45, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
 * 13) Support. He's helpful, level-headed and mature, and fairly active.  &not; Wizårdbõÿ777  ( talk ) 03:01, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

Oppose

 * 1) Sadly, we have enough sysops for the moment. --  scourge  09:50, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
 * 2) "I feel that..." generic trolling is ftw. Prophet Ascension 16:07, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
 * 3) Weak oppose. I don't know him enough to say yes or no. although that means i'm tending to no since admins should be known imo. - Y0_ ich_halt  [[Image:User Y0_ich_halt sig.jpg|18px|Have a look at my page]] 20:58, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
 * 4) Oppose. Agreed with Y0 ich halt. &mdash;  ク   Eloc  貢  20:59, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

Neutral

 * 1) Neutral. I'm a little unsure about where to go here. I have no doubt that Kakarot would not misuse the tools, but I'm doubtful as to whether he needs to be a sysop. I don't think I've seen enough of Kakarot to warrant a support, and similarly, I haven't seen anything that would make me oppose. --[[Image:User Brains12 Spiral.png|15px| ]] Brains12 \ Talk 01:43, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
 * 2) Neutral.Brains shares my exact sentiments here.  Calor  [[Image:User_Calor_Sig.png|19px|Talk]] 01:55, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
 * 3) Neutral. Like Brains and Calor, I simply don't know Kakarot well enough/haven't seen him around enough to make a fair assessment of his candidacy.  That said, from what I have seen, I think it's safe to say that Kakarot would not misuse the Sysop tools.  [[Image:User Defiant Elements Sig Image.JPG|19x19px]]  *Defiant Elements*   +talk  05:31, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
 * 4) Neutral. Brains said it all.  I don't see a huge need for another sysop, don't know Kakarot much, but don't worry particularly about him being sysop. — T HARKUN  [[Image:User_Tharkun_sig.png|16px]] 20:52, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
 * 5) Neutral. It's similar with the other users, I'm still missing some more participation in wiki discussions. But in the last days I saw that Kakarot tried to participate a lot more and I'm happy with it. If he continues like that, I think he would make a good sysop. poke | talk 16:02, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
