The power of an admin.

I think this is the best section to put this topic because it goes hand in hand with my intro thread.
I would like to highlight the role of an admin. The highest rank I ever received on a forum was GMod (same goal on this forum ;)) on a hacking clan and I never really realized the influential power that gave me. I always saw it as a burden with few rewards, I kept being HQ but not really active, I overlooked the recognized power I had. It's small but it's always there for a forum mod. I joined MF from a recent HF thread that said MF was reopened, I quickly followed Crayo's refer link thinking I'd post my new business venture and get a few customers. After reuping my selling thread, I posted in the intro section with a pointless sentence that I initially thought would get me neg repped: "Hey, it's funny how everybody from HF is only joining this forum to reup their selling threads. I'm here because I'm registering all domains for $3.99 :)". When I checked back in a few hours Crayo's response had such a motivating feel that I decided this is the forum I've been looking for. Some other admin would of been offended a little by that remark (I would be) but not Crayo, he stuck with me and gave me that glimpse of hope in my darkest moment. His quick/small response is what motivated (and still motivates) me to be active and HQ on this forum. Thank You, I want all the members to be proud of their administrator.
 
Why thank you, I feel quite honored if I'm honest. It's the best feedback you can receive as an Administrator, a simple "good job" from the members you're trying to please. To be honest, I pride myself in being HQ on these forums, not so much on any outside forums now'adays. The sole reason is because I'm passionate about this forums success, and there's no way of being successful without HQ members. I'm glad you have become HQ here as you have become a valuable member to the community, so all I can say is keep it up :). But hey, thank you very much for the feedback and I'm sure our members also appreciate the honesty in your post.
 
Great thread you made there, also being in the staff means that you play an important role in the forum.
