And also having too many people with Admin access to the forums is a bad idea for the simple fact that it makes it easyer for a hacker to gain access to the system. Alot easyer to find 1 weak password out of 10, than to find 1 weak password out of 4.
A vote for giving melwin forum admin access was made because melwin was the only person that was trying to organize and pull the boards together. Most (if not all) of the current admins werent doing anything about this.

I honostly doubt that the real reason that you voted no was because 'it makes it easier for hackers'.

But, once again, the point of removing image was not that we wanted melwin so bad, it was that we established the rule that we vote on issues like these, and image felt like he had to override and remove our access when he didn't get his way.
