User talk:Mytwocents/Firm but fair

(Reposted from (User_talk:Theresa_knott/archive15#Talk:Bonnie_and_Clyde to clarify award)

I hope you like the Firm but Fair award. I thought of it as a way to reward admins who keep things civil, in a no nonsense, 'no big production number' way. Basically with common sense and by setting a good example. The picture of the cop, handing out a ticket is meant to be very slightly 'tongue in cheek'. I want it to be a cool award. I hope it comes across that way. Since the wikicommunity has grown so large, I think we need more admins to lay down the law early in conflicts. This would serve to check rude behavour, and keep it from escalating into full-blown flaming, edit warring, and personal attacks. Things that seem to be happening at an exponential rate, as we grow larger. Well, thanks again. Mytwocents 03:59, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
