Bureaucrat
From RationalWikiWiki
RationalWiki Bureaucrats had the power to change another user's name, and to confer or remove user rights. There were a few dozen crats on the site. Users have been nominated for 'cratship at the saloon bar or at a 'crat nominations page, where the votes usually went 6 or 7 for, 6 or 7 against, and 12 whining that there were enough bureaucrats already and RW should de-crat the inactive ones before elevating anyone else to the exalted rank. The rank of Bureaucrat was abolished by God Himself in the massive May 2011 shakeup.

[edit] Crat Baton
After the Saloon Bar Putsch there was one crat, who handed on the crat baton to somebody else. For the record, these sole crats were:
[edit] 15 May
- prior to 13:49 - Nx crats himself via server access.
- 13:49 - Nx crats Π.
- 15:28 - with a "Whee, you're it," Π throws the Baton across the Indian Ocean to Psygremlin and decrats himself.
- 15:42 - Psy passes the baton to Totnesmartin, somewhat to the latter's surprise.[1]
- 20:26 - Tmtoulouse informs Totnesmartin that there don't have to be any crats., because Trent made sysops able to make other sysops.
- 21:36 with the cryptic comment "King Log" Totnesmartin decrats himself without passing the baton.
[edit] 16 May
- There were no crats, but sysops were able to sysop other users due to Trent adding their ability to sysop others, but not remove sysop rights.
[edit] 17 May
- prior to 03:54: Nx crats himself through server access again.
- 03:54 - Nx crats Blue. She begins recratting former bureaucrats including Ty, who joins in the task,
and sanity was restored.
