As such, I figured that there would be less users to help maintain the quality of the pages. It was nothing against you guys. Simply a desire to help maintain the quality of the site once all the regular users left.

I would also like to note that Terrios528 agreed with me on this. I did ask other admins before attempting this, and then retracted it once the users disagreed with the decision.

The admin or bureaucrat's job is not to be on the wikia 24/7, but to take care of things as quickly as possible. I apologize if sometimes that means a day or two, rather than 5 minutes. Please take into consideration that I am a person, too. I may be offline because I'm on vacation for a week, or have tests to study for and papers to write. But it doesn't seem fair to only take into consideration my reaction time without also taking into consideration that I am a person with other things in my life aside from wikia. Peace that is the entire defintion of slow reaction. You can't even wait a few hours on a vandal. You need to be quick and decisive. I am busy most of the day too, but I still check my wiki out and take care of vandals within the hour if my other admin had not already caught them.
