What do non-root admins do on your board? Even on IF what do the Community Admins do around the board? I'm curious to see what you let your admins do on your board and to see if I need another Admin. I guess just tell me what your non-root admins get done on your board. |

hmm.. well, i had a board with 3 others. i did most the skinning and stuff, so i was root admin. (they wanted other groupnames, so we made more groups) they did most the moderating/banning and 2 where running a RGP. (i got to be the ***-hole that decided to permanently ban somebody and stuff..... that was fun )

We have two types of admin on a board I co-own. ROOT (me and the owner) and non-root. We roots generally deal with things that the others can't because they're not founders such as complaints, updates, new things, keeping an eye on everyone and the website while the non-roots deal with the board 'n' schtuff. |

I believe that the Community Admins here deal with banning members etc. (although Duffman does that often too, if something comes to his attention). They also seem to change things in the ACP, like update forum descriptions etc. |

If you're querstioning as to whether you need another admin, you DONT need one. You'll know if and when you'll need another admin for your forums. |

it depends. it's always good to have another admin. if you're doing alone just to add. I'm the main admin at my site and then my co-admin deals with mainly the look of the board because she has photoshop which has really helped. Other admins can deal with things you can't be assed doing too.

If you have another admin that you can trust then it can and will be a benefit. That guy can bail you out if you screw up, say, if you accidently change your group to Members your backup admin can change you back. |

I dont believe in Community Administrators. If you trust someone enough to let them have ACP access then you should trust them to handle the full job. |

Non-root do the same as root as mine, but without the ability to do the root stuff, which they don't need anyway. |

I do about 99% of the name changes and I would guess probably 90% of the bannings. Also I am DuffMan's lackey when he wants a new forum
