I vouch for this completely. I don't think we should limit it to telnets or even seniors, because super admins hold just as much responsibility to get things done as the rest of the admin ranks. If we limit it to seniors we limit it to about 4 or 5 senior admins who are active, and that's it. If we're being real, there would be no use in adding the ability just to limit it to seniors. Even if we limit it to telnet, there are still super admins like Elmon joining on different timezones when no one else is on, who in a case where someone was spamming the discord channel, would have no ability to mend the issue, without first calling a telnet admin or a senior admin. Saying super admins can't be trusted with the command is arrogant, and I don't really buy any of the reasons given. If the discord is different then the minecraft server, we should disassociate with the discord server. If the discord admins cannot give TF admins the ability to mute spam, they need to offer a better idea for nerfing the spamming issues. Being that almost all, if not all, of the discord mods are senior admins, I think it's selfish to leave the ability to them, especially when they don't really do such a great job doing it right now. By no means am I calling anyone out or trying to be disrespectful, but I personally am trying to look in the best light for the server and for everyone, and not just the good of the discord mods.

bump - thread was on the second page and the last reply was three days ago

Vouch + Rec confirmed. Elmon is a very nice admin, active, and uses his judgement well. Would make an excellent telnet admin!

1. What is your Minecraft name and time zone where you normally are online? (e.g. GMT+1:00 or MST). - *Your Minecraft name must match your forum name or your Minecraft name must be in your forum profile.*
DaddyIndica - EST
2. Do you have a discord account? If yes, post your username#discriminator here. (Not required, but highly suggested).
DaddyIndica#6999
3. What date were you appointed to Telnet admin? (MM/DD/YY). *Required 10 month active participation from your Telnet admin promotion date.*
Telnet - October 31, 2016
TCA - November 30, 2017
4. Unlike Telnet, a Senior admin is a primarily a leadership position and you must be able to lead other admins in a mature manner and be a responsible representative of Total Freedom. Provide a paragraph of your accomplishments and why you think you'd made a good senior admin.
I have been an admin on TotalFreedom since March 7, of 2016. In the 4 years since then, I think I've not only become a better admin but I've also matured as a person. I know a lot of admins from my time probably remember me as immature, or just downright disrespectful. This is by no means an apology thread, but I just wanted to make it understood that I, as a person and as an admin, have changed pretty dearly since the first year or so. In my time as a totalfreedom admin, I have achieved both telnet, and telnet clan admin (when that was still a rank). Over the years, I've racked up a pretty good amount of permban requests, forum requests, and I have even been here during a lot of substantial situations. In late 2016, I helped markbyron search through a large amount of logfiles to help find many of the spambot ranges that where on the permban list at the time. I also assisted in finding rogue admins, and although this can no longer be corroborated due to my PMs being nonexistant, mark did vouch on my telnet application at the time because of the work that I did for him. I believe this not only shows the dedication I have for TotalFreedom, but also shows that I have the maturity, the skills to lead, and the skills to set a good example on the admin community. TotalFreedom has changed since 2016, but I feel that my many years administrating on totalfreedom has prepared me very well to become a senior admin.

These are two admin reports for rogue admins - these are unrelated to what I referenced about mark
