Don't worry, it won't happen. He should just decline and end it now. Sardaukar User Sardaukar sig.png 20:07, 9 June 2010 (UTC)
Too much Auron hate. He did a good job as a bureaucrat and if he wants too he should stand.--Wingsy 20:12, 9 June 2010 (UTC)

Good thing this page has nothing to do with adminship then, isn't it? – Emmett 20:44, 9 June 2010 (UTC)

I know Auron.. Hey, Auron. I know you... I vote Yes :) 199.247.234.12 22:25, 12 June 2010 (UTC)


I Dont hate auron, infact hes a nice guy, but he's got to much public-hate to be a bureaucrat--Neil2250 User Neil2250 sig icon6.png 22:28, 12 June 2010 (UTC)

This is exactly why bureaucrat elections (and, to a lesser extend, RfA's) made by users are a bad idea. Good judgment, knowledge of policies, and some devotion for this wiki should be the grounds to vote for or against someone. Whether the person is liked by the people or if he/she helps people with their userpages is completely irrelevant. Koda User Koda Kumi UT.jpeg Kumi 10:15, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
I would vote (or not) for Auron based on his judgment, his knowledge of policies and his approach to issues based on past events. not on whether or not I like him. Basically, what Koda said. Shadow Runner 11:05, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
Except GWW bureaucrat is merely a token seat that, by its nature, neutralizes a useful member of the community. A very few bureaucrats have managed to actually be productive (Misery and Gares come to mind), but most of them are either content to take a far back seat for the next x months or are crushed under the weight of complaints from feeble-minded zealots that don't want bureaucrats using sysop powers. I do not want Auron to be separated from his testicles, and so I will continue to oppose his bureaucracy. User Felix Omni Signature.pngelix Omni 14:10, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
I agree he is much more useful as a sysop. --LaniaUser Lania Elderfire pinkribbon.jpg 14:19, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
After re-reading various information and clarifying myself on the role of bureaucrat, I'd have to agree. Shadow Runner 14:23, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
In terms of the public hate thing: So long as Auron can keep a cool, unbiased head, I think that being disliked by the public when in a position of power is a good thing as then you won't have sworms of "worshipers" (for lack of a better term) who finds your dumbest move to be a blessing (and not even in disguise). It's because I have a handful or two of people disliking me and my inability to keep a cool head (unbiased yes, but cool? No.) that I'd be refusing any seat of wikiness. As for whether someone should be a bureaucrat or sysop - I haven't a clue because I never bothered looking into the responsibilities of them both insofar as being able to actually remember the differences between the two roles (let alone what the roles are for). -- Konig/talk 16:31, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
I don't see how someone who has too much public hate (which he has showed me personally before) should be allowed such a position. I am sure his other qualities would make him worth of the seat, but once he learns to not publicly hate others, he would get my vote. Not that my opposed vote will make too much difference, methinks.--Burning Freebies 21:57, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
Public hate or not, IMO he (and Salome) don't stand a chance anyways with Aiiane also running. RazoR39999 15:04, 18 June 2010 (UTC)
It doesn't matter whether a bureaucrat hates someone or not, as long as he/she can stay neutral during an ArbComm case. - Mini Me talk 16:33, 18 June 2010
Making him BC just means he does practically nothing during that time (assuming the BCs can't act like sysops unless there is an emergency is still in the policy). Many people don't have an issue with making him a BC because a BC basically does nothing most of the time. It's like a time out for sysops (and usually has really positive results because of this). 114.78.24.232 13:31, 24 June 2010 (UTC)

Just so you know[edit]

I'm voting for Auron to piss off trolls. ~Shard User Shard Sig Icon.png 03:54, 17 June 2010 (UTC)

Then, to keep balance in the universe, I have to vote Auron as well. Morphy 09:21, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
We need him to ban trolls in the proper manner. At least in the way where they go cry in corners. →[ »Halogod User Halogod35 Sig.png (talk ]← 03:35, 19 June 2010 (UTC)
Some people voted for him?!?! on accident. I fixed their votes accordingly. 75.142.14.156 05:23, 20 June 2010 (UTC)
Troll farming was Auron's idea. -MaskeusUser Maskeus sig.jpeg 09:44, 20 June 2010 (UTC)

ITT: voter fraud[edit]

Seriously? someone hates auron enough to move votes from support to oppose. Kinda sad. Now the votes all fubar'd 70.139.49.71 06:55, 20 June 2010 (UTC)
