Chacor's oppose

[edit]
  1. If you accept a nomination from someone who has something like User:Kamope/Fun house (and a talk page at [[Talk:User:Kamope/Fun house]], not even at the appropriate User talk space), I have to question your sense of judgement. – Chacor 00:02, 19 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    Chacor, rather than nitpick about the nominator, why don't you consider how J Milburn will do as an admin instead? I'm sure he was just pleased to have been nominated – adminship does not require looking at the background of your nominator. --Majorly 00:08, 19 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    If soemone got nominated by a banned user knowingly and accepted, it'd be a problem too. Accepting this shows a lack of good judgement imo, and that is one of the things I consider in admins, their sense of judgement. I don't think that he'll make good use of the tools with this sense of judgement. Your comment has no merit. – Chacor 00:15, 19 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    I agree, I thought long and hard about whether to accept. I deemed it bad mannered to decline when I actively say that I want to be an administrator. I hope that I can get some advice out of this nomination, if nothing else. J Milburn 00:15, 19 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    Except, Chacor, the user isn't banned. Possibly quite new, but nevertheless good faith. I cannot understand how accepting a nomination from a "new" user should have any effect whatsoever on he user's judgment. I find your comment has no merit, and from it, it has lead me to believe you haven't even checked the candidate's contributions - just the nominator's. --Majorly 00:21, 19 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    How did you ever pass RFA, anyway. *rolleyes* The candidate's judgement is what I'm questioning here, and I find that without proper judgement, the candidate should not be an admin. I'm not convinced he has shown proper judgement here. It's his contribs I've reviewed, and it's led me to review that of his nominator too. Don't dismiss valid opinions as without merit, please. – Chacor 00:29, 19 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    Maybe I passed because there was consensus for me to? Like that has anything to do with this. Maybe you have some diffs showing poor judgement from this user? --Majorly 00:34, 19 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    Perhaps you would like to take this to the talk page, or your own talk pages. A former admin and a present admin squabbling on an RfA. What an example to set to others eh !. --Kind Regards - Heligoland 00:38, 19 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose has been withdrawn for causing needless fuss. – Chacor 10:24, 19 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
