Indeed, the make of this one was quite obvious

[quote=antp,11999]Thanks.
The "problem" is the admins that we do not see anymore on the site: [quote]
Like who?
24/01/2008 @ 16:27:28: antp: Non-Unidentified Vehicles
m-power-bmw, mozinor & yoda_57, which were part of the original team
also:
crex: 2 years!
leolito: 1 year
benny: 04/2007
jun: 07/2007
qwerty_86 & bent8rover: 09/2007
Some do not come often but still posted in the last 2-3 months.
Not so many, but maybe we could make a list of ex-admins or "honorable members" or something like that, I do not know
24/01/2008 @ 17:06:51: CarChasesFanatic: Non-Unidentified Vehicles
What for?
24/01/2008 @ 17:07:21: wickey: Non-Unidentified Vehicles
I think one year without making any contribution / change on the site is long enough to take their admin rights and make them ex-admins
24/01/2008 @ 17:18:51: CarChasesFanatic: Non-Unidentified Vehicles
Ah that yes, but making a honorable list?
I didnt know Jun was one fo the first admins to arrive to the site, i thought he was rather new.
24/01/2008 @ 19:47:02: antp: Non-Unidentified Vehicles
Jun arrived recently indeed. Re-read my message
Crex is admin since long time, on the other hand.
Your "what for" is for the ex-admins list? I though that it may be nice to mention somewhere which were/are major members even if they are not (anymore) admin. Some were never admin, some declined, these could be mentioned too...

And of course, the admin list should still be changed sometime so it lists you as the Chief Admin
By the way the ex-admin section (which you might as well have for people who never come here anymore) should be called "Retired Admins" or "Former Admins" rather than "Ex-admins".
I think it's fairer to wait a bit longer than 6 months (a year sounds about right) before removing someone from the admin list (unless you get confirmation from them that they are no longer contributing to the site). Also Saturn Simon only made 4 comments in 2007 (on one day) and he isn't listed as a picture contributor on any films.

I already added that some times ago just above the admins list.

Sure, "ex-admins" was just a temporary name. I do not know what would be the best.
I also think that 1 year is the minimum. Some waited several months before coming back as they had lots of work (e.g. Alexander or Wrenchhead, if I remember well).

I guess he is admin because he was identifying many cars at the time we did not had many members able to identify US cars, but that changed now.
Anyway before removing admin rights to those who do not come on the site, I'll contact them to ask if they plan to come back or not.
19/08/2008 @ 14:31:32: antp: Non-Unidentified Vehicles
Because G-MANN missed it, I guess. I moved it.
19/08/2008 @ 19:31:18: ford_guy: Non-Unidentified Vehicles
Just out of curiosity, what progress have you made on getting in touch with the older administrators who do not come on here anymore?
19/08/2008 @ 20:27:05: antp: Non-Unidentified Vehicles
I did not start yet to try to contact them
19/08/2008 @ 21:13:29: ford_guy: Non-Unidentified Vehicles
well, its understandable. you have a lot to handle already
