This is what I see...<br>

"Chovynz, want to be an admin/librarian as well?"<br>
"Chovynz, want to be an admin/librarian as well?"<br>
"Chovynz, want to *be an admin/librarian* *be an admin/librarian **be an<br>
admin/librarian* *be an admin/librarian **be an admin/librarian* as well?"<br>
<br>
<br>
My first instinct is to run like hell and not look back. No, I don't want to<br>
be an admin or librarian. I'm well aware of what admins and more<br>
power/responsibility brings. I just want to upload clipart that should be<br>
there.<br>
<br>
What else would be expected if I said yes? I don't have alot of time and I<br>
prefer being "loose".<br>

<div>For example, look at <a href="http://ccmixter.org">ccmixter.org</a>, they have a completely different "review culture". They actually respond to comments,</div><div>even if it's only to say "thank you" :O </div>

I would like to help, for example handle the artist names from Z down to M, or anything else you suggest.</div></div><br><div>Cheers,</div><div>Papapishu</div>
