 * Candidate, please indicate acceptance of the nomination here:

Can I just withdraw this, I'm bored. It's a waste of your guys time. I withdraw my nomination.

Questions for the candidate
Dear candidate, thank you for offering to serve Wikipedia as an 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?
 * A: I intend to use my administrator rights well for a while and then abuse them, randomly deleting articles and being an insider troll.


 * 2. What are your best contributions to Wikipedia, and why?
 * A: Well I usually troll and create havoc for a while until my IP is blocked.


 * 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?
 * A: I've never trolled or vandalized under my account, which should make me a good admin. I'm also pretty bored.

General comments

''Please keep discussion constructive and civil. If you are unfamiliar with the nominee, please thoroughly review Special:Contributions/Etan before commenting.''

Oppose

 * 1)  Very strong oppose Per your answers. Q1: That is not a good quality of what administrators should do. deleting, protecting, and blocking random pages and users. Q2: Again, not good. Vandalizing under your IP address and trying to keep your account safe. Q3: That is not a good reason to become an admin, just because your bored. Sorry, but it is way too early to request for adminship. You only have 68 edits, ONE in the mainspace and you haven't been active. I highly doubt you know our policies. Try to gain more experience and wait a few months. I like the enthusiasm, but you are not yet ready. Try out adoption so an experienced user can tutor you and you can gain more experience and then try Admin coaching so you can learn what admins do and what you they should know. Thanks, RyRy  ( talk ) 03:56, 30 June 2008 (UTC)
 * There are a million reasons to oppose, but telling someone who's been here twenty times as long as you that it's "too early" is – ah – unusual! – iride  scent  04:02, 30 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Sorry about that, that was my mistake. -- RyRy  ( talk ) 04:04, 30 June 2008 (UTC)
