Alkaren has a lot of friends. That alone tells you that he was not a good administrator. Administrators are the least liked people in the game. The only reason he was liked so much, was because he let things slide in fear of losing popularity. I don't know how many times I had to point out rules being blatantly broken on the forums in topics that he was posting in and acknowledging. You want to talk power trip, he even set all his forum access to allow himself access to all forums, even though being admin automatically covered that, he wanted to assure he would be able to view all forums even if he lost his power. (either that, or he set them all to yes so he didn't have to upgrade?)
Whatever the reason, Alkaren has changed for the worst. He ever so often messages me on aim and tells me that I'm doing a ridiculous job with the forums because I don't follow in his footsteps and allow the players to run wild so that I'm liked by more people. After he lost his power, he just snapped and now he apparently hates me.
He got in arguements with Unixmad because he would tell Unixmad how to do his job, and tell Unixmad that he isn't doing a good job, or whatever he said, but it wasn't nice words to Unixmad, and it wasn't helping anyone.
