- User with a mixed reputation, desysoped twice, currently trying to improve himself. -- RoyboyX 21:12, November 4, 2010 (UTC)
I'd just like to state to people that I haven't been in any recent conflicts (RAN1, the pirate chat incident should not be taken as a conflict; it was merely me opposing your access to the personal channel that I use), and according to Hellkaiserryo12, I am doing better and actually discussing things on talk pages etc. So I am trying again for the second time.
Questions for the candidate
Dear candidate, thank you for offering to serve Wikitroid by running for administrator. It is recommended that you answer these optional questions to provide guidance for participants:
- 1. What admin work do you intend to take part in?
- In my first two periods as an admin, I worked tirelessly to correct mistakes on pages, break the confidence of vandals who dare destroy our facts and make the wiki look its best. I strive to do this again should I become an admin.:
- 2. What are your best contributions to Wikitroid, and why?
- I was responsible for having the C&C Policy enforced, and I greatly shrunk the number of wanted pages that Wikitroid had, among many other tasks that I continued to do even during my periods without power.:
- 3. Have you been in any conflicts over editing in the past or have other users caused you stress? How have you dealt with it and how will you deal with it in the future?
- My most notable conflicts would have to be with ChozoBoy. His actions that lead to the C&C RfC provoked me and caused me to become, quote Selamawi Asgedom, "the most deformed of beetles", that is to say, I turned from a greatly respected and admired user into one of the most hated. I still am today. He and I have since reconciled, but similar to his relationship with Piratehunter, I doubt that we can permanently settle our differences. Another huge conflict I had was in September (mind you MarioGalaxy and RAN1, that was two months ago, so please don't use that if you vote) on the IRC channel. I was discussing with MarioGalaxy2433g5 about the unused files when FastLizard4 chimed in and began yelling at me for "not following standard procedure and doing whatever jack shit [I] want[ed]". Then I began to argue with MG and the intervening RAN1, who really made me angry that night.
As for users that have caused stress, some people, such as Moderator guy, Klonker and Hypermode, personally attacked me on my talk page or elsewhere. In fact, the former user stalked me for a brief period across multiple wikis. I finally confronted him and broke his self confidence, and the stalking has as of recently stopped.:

- Support - You have proven yourself, You have done everything for the wikia, which is what admins need to do, so I approve. Metroid101 22:26, November 4, 2010 (UTC)
- Support - I have seen improvement in RoyboyX since last time he tried for admin, and I know he still has some rough edges, but no one’s perfect. He is doing better than before and has tried to stay out of hateful arguments as best he could. He’s ready for another chance in my opinion.

- Support - Hey, like I said last time, I think you've improved hell of a lot since the past incidents. :P Got scared the other day though; thought you were reverting back... and just as I said last time... if I or anyone else who is supporting ends up regretting their decision, I will show you a new meaning to pain as you are dragged vigorously throughout all of Wikitroid by your entrails, and your mangled corpse, ripped asunder by the force of four steads, and your disassembled body, hung and paraded about the four corners of Wikitroid as a symbol to all who would do as you, and finally, your head, macabrely glorified at the apex of a grand pike in the center of FastLizard4's courtyard estate... *cough* Good luck! :D --Piratehunter {ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) 21:45, November 5, 2010 (UTC)
- Support - Yeah, you we're a good Admin, and I'm sure you'll do a good job again. Thanks for making it next to impossible to pass you on most edits without, like, lots of vandalism. But yeah. This is your second chance. Don't screw this up, or... well, I think PH summed it up nicely. But he forgot to mention the part where we drag you around with a chariot. This is Greece, after all. :) DekutullaZM 14:52, November 6, 2010 (UTC)
Oppose
- Oppose - I don't feel like the last Request was all that long ago. You're still doing things like attacking users in the Request itself, though I'm glad that you removed some of it. Sorry, I haven't been convinced yet. ChozoBoy (Talk/Contribs) 02:39, November 6, 2010 (UTC)
- Oppose - I was actually going to vote support, then I came across this. Not the behavior I want to see from a prospective administrator. And you didn't really answer question 3. --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (Talk•Contribs•Logs) 07:52, November 6, 2010 (UTC)
