User blog:HighJewElfKing/One Year as an Administrator

Hello, everybody! HighJewElfKing here with a very special and personal blog post for me.

One year ago today, Aguziel took a chance on me and promoted me to an administrator on South Park Archives. I never would've thought one year later I'd be a bureaucrat on this amazing wiki. For those of you who don't know my story here, I'll make it simple. I started mid-2015 on the South Park Studios Wiki. On April 11th, 2016, I was doing a web search when I came across arguably the best wiki on the web. After spending just two minutes here, I knew I had to join this amazing community.

Throughout the coming months thereafter, I pushed myself here, spending at times 7 to 8 hours straight doing nothing but contributing here. I never would've thought a hobby would become so important to me, but this was at the top of my list after I joined. As an administrator here, I had the chance to work with an amazing group of editors who are the people who made this wiki what it is today.

Today, I've seen how much our wiki has grown just from when I joined and was promoted. This wiki is always changing and I see time and time again how hard everybody works here, from the editors to the admins who make this wiki what it is today.

The interface has changed, the admins and editors have changed, the name of the people who host our wiki has changed but the integrity and passion of our wiki haven't.

I want to thank the current admin team here for their support of me since I've taken the "head bureaucrat" position in May. Without the support of Jamesb1 and PissCoveredOcelot, I wouldn't be where I am today.

Special thanks go to: User:Jamesb1, User:PissCoveredOcelot, User:Aguziel (Thank you for taking a chance on me), The Editors of SPA, The FANDOM community, (FANDOM/TLH: Veenster7).

I'm extremely proud and honored to be a part of this amazing wiki and to help it grow and prosper. This wiki is very special to me, and I don't take that or what I am allowed to do for this wiki for granted. I don't take what I do here or my responsibilities here lightly. From the bottom of my heart, Thank you all for allowing me to be an editor here and for allowing me to serve as your administrator and bureaucrat. -Charlie
