This is exactly why they made him/her administrator, so the current staff doesn't have to deal with their mistakes while she/he can ignore her past ones.
It's not okay to assume things, it makes you look like an idiot because I know who it is, and you are so wrong that it's fucking hilarious.
Osay is the web admin, he is in charge here and if he feels like this person is fit to be staff then oh well, sit back and relax.
If you don't like it, take it up with him and he'll set you fucking straight.
Instead of bitching, here's an idea, and this goes for everyone whining, give the new admin a chance.
Time will only tell.

You're letting him make this thread about him.
Do what everyone's telling
him to do and put him on your ignore list. Especially if you're going to be responding to him all the time.

He's not the only one whining, I wasn't just responding to him, but to everyone complaining because they don't know who it is.
Everyone needs to sit back and chill and give the new admin a chance.

It's pretty much like this:
The staff discussed this person joining us, we all agreed they would be the perfect fit. We knew people were going to have a shitstorm because she's "new" and would claim that they're hiding from past mistakes, and anything else people seem to assume about the staff. Then again, even if you did know their identity people would throw a fit anyway. Either way people would've complained.
I would appreciate it if you all would just trust us, instead of villainizing us and doubting us time and time again. We're not as stupid as you seem to believe we are.

I know the sky isn't going to fall down just because there's a new admin who might as well be a stranger, but it's not like mabination has had a particularly good history of promoting people to admins and beyond. (Ahahahaha. hahaha. hahahahahaha. ha. haha.) There were so many things wrong with that before, there's no reason to believe anything's changed, especially since little information is being given.
Also, regarding the "fit" that people would throw if they really knew who Ashi was. That's not comforting at all.
Let the people throw the fit they're supposed to. By hiding things like this you're only delaying the inevitable.
Honesty is the best policy, imo, when it comes to moderation. We had issues with things like global ignore and the miserable users list, and secrecy doesn't work.

I see what you mean, but I'm begging all of you, just give Ashi a chance, they may surprise you.

Of course I had to be an idiot and delete the message aoiassdakjkokoro sent me about this exact topic saying she was brought on specifically because the current staff is incompetent as fuck and has no communication with each other.
I'll probably be banned now for telling you guys this.

Knowing this person, I highly doubt that they said that.
They may have said there were some communication problems, but that's probably as far as it went.
I also think it's very convienent that this PM was deleted

That's a very cynical outlook to take about the staff and these forums. I agree the previous choice of admin wasn't the best, but at the time it was what we needed since Nation was just going down fast because of the disrespect to everyone and everything that was happening. We're trying to change things for the better, and it's really hard when most of Nation takes the same approach you have.
@ Xemnas-
Your ploy to try and turn the staff against each other is just ridiculous. If Ashi has a problem with us, she'll address it. If she did tell you anything, I have the feeling you're taking her words out of context. Like you normally do.

Geez, you're desperate for drama. You're starting to make real trolls look bad.

This is also another issue with the staff when it seems like blatant favoritism is taking place when someone who is not on staff is privy to information that should be staff-exclusive.
Whether Ashi is a personal friend of yours or not (if that's why you know, or any other reason), the fact that you know shouldn't be posted over and over again in this thread. Not that it's anything against you personally. It's just how it looks.
*edit
oops Ithi I think you missed my edit.

I didn't delete it. And if it will make you happy, I'll paste it in a formal announcement later.
In the same series of PM's, I made a promise to never ban anyone, and to protect the freedom of expression as my number one priority. You are cherry picking out my statements and trying to cause as much drama as possible.
