A Scripter Manager can implement all his new ideas and systems immediately without waiting for his scripter to come online and finish what he's doing. A Scripter Manager doesn't need to worry about the workload he's placing on his scripters or go through the tiresome struggle to find new scripters should his current one leave.
Summary: Scripters rock. I'm not saying that you can't be a good manager without being a scripter too. Of course you can. But any sort of creative skills are useful in a position like this.

I agree good knowedge of scripting would be hugely helpful on Managing a Server unfortunatle not all of us have had the time or are as gifted as some of you guys are.
