This isn't a voting thread, any votes will be removed

Okay so I know you guys don't want to hear about my personal life but here we go. I have finals in a few days and I need to study for it. I also have a real actual social life and friends I need to do stuff with and extracurriculars and stuff. So since we only have two admins, one of which is on hiatus, I could use some help. That's why I made a thread that would make it easier to become an admin.

It basically got rid of the mini admin position and replaced it with something I call Global Moderator. You can apply for global mod even if you're not a staff member yet. It's basically discussion and content moderator combined, like any other moderator but with more responsibility basically. This means that you can now get to admin in two months minimum since you don't have to be a mini-admin first.

However, this thread only got like 10 votes, all of which were either spammy "Neutrals" with no comment or seven supports. There was no discussion whatsoever. So I've decided to pass it even though it didn't technically pass because nobody wanted to read it (it was really close to passing, by the way, just one short of the 8 support requirement according to the rules.) Everyone I've spoken with seems to be in support of this idea, or they have absolutely no opinion.

If you're upset by this and feel that by passing this one vote short, this is power abuse, let me know and we can talk it out. But I can't wait months for another voting process just to get more staff because we need it bad and I'm 99% sure this will help us out a lot.

But if the mini-admins are replaced with global mods, what will happen to the current mini-admins? I've given them a choice: I promote them to admin right away (since admin and mini-admin were really the same position but admin could promote/demote)  or they remain a global mod. I've spoken with them both and Copper wants to become a global mod and Red will become an admin.

So yeah, Red's an admin now. This might seem weird but I should remind you that the thread detailing all of this was ONE VOTE SHORT of passing and we had no opposes. Plus we desperately need staff. The end of the school year is coming up and we're busy. If you have a problem with this please talk to me privately!
