I won't go into the larger post, as obviously, while I agree with some of it, I believe you misunderstood other parts or had a skewed perspective in the events, but going into details on them would just draw this into a flame war, and I don't want that. I do, however, appreciate your honesty and willingness to be forthright.
The reason the admins aren't voting is really very simple. We're somewhat the "biased" party here, so our votes can thus be put into question, even if we may make them with the best of intentions. This was Kainus' idea, and I agree with it. Besides, there's only three of us, two if you consider I wouldn't be able to vote whether I was an admin or not. If it gets that close that it's that big a deal, the voting should probably be called a draw, anyway.

Wait, what? I just said I would abstain from voting at the moment because I couldnt make up my mind, and that you probably couldnt vote for yourself... did I really say all admins cant vote?

I thought so. If I misunderstood, I'm sorry. That was my impression I got from you, though.

If you're the same person that I believe you are, I would personally say that I see no reason for you to step down as of yet. I can't claim complete knowledge since I haven't been with this board for any major(or minor, for that matter) period of time. But, what I do know of you says that you probably don't need to resign.

So, if Ninmast resigns, who will take his place?

That's actually something we've been discussing, but we haven't come to a decision just yet.

I dont think members with 3 damn posts should be expressing opnions in this poll. Way to fuck things up and skew the results.

I had to vote yes.
Pretty much summing up what everyone else said- you've been known to abuse your power. It's not like your time as admin's been all negatives, and it's not as if we've had any major problems personally, but this is one case where I feel that the bad outweighs the good.
However, there's no sure way to tell if any person elected as the new admin would be any better, and that's where it all breaks down.
In the end, it's really your decision. We can't impeach on eab, so you can either step down or maintain your position. Either way, something needs to change.

thats a ridiclus reason to tell me to control myself, for all we know, mr 7 posts could be a decoy account to vote again.
Edit: Nevermind, I didnt realize you werent completely new. I figured someone just set up another account with same lame profile images to vote again. I profusely apologize.

Dude. It seems you are slightly paranoid. However, I can see your point of view. Anyway. Really? If Ninmast is ejected from office, then who would take up his place? Then would the same crap happen again? Probably. It can all be repeated, and the same can happen again, and again, and again. It could be a vicious cycle.
But then again, if you really want to think about it. What could be the positive about the whole outcome? Sure.. get Ninmast out.. but then..? What would even happen after that. I'll agree. Ninmast is pretty much the most active member, he's commited, but with comitance.. comes abuse.
Think about it. Nothing could be gained at all..

Back when another forum was still more active rp-wise, we rped here and there, corresponded. Yeah, he could be a little zealous, but as far as I could tell, he was dedicated. And, as far as I can tell, he doesn't seem like he needs ot step down. Maybe step back and take a deep breath, but not necessarily step down. On another forum it's common for staff members to take time off here and there when they think a break is needed. I'm not gonna claim total knowledge of this forum. But, if an administrator will actually hold a poll like this, then your staff is a lot kinder than you might want to think. Most other forums would initiate a mass banhammering.

Ninmast already went through a step back and take a breath phase
and I do seem a bit paranoid, yes, but I know the full scope of the members here more than you do, Enigma.
And as always, just because Im enthusiastic dosent mean Im loosing my head. I dont freak out over the internet...
