I feel the b-crats and the admins need to work together more often, and feel more comfortable stepping out of their departments when necessary. When everyone is here, the departments are all well and good - but when we get into a situation like this, they are more of a detriment.

While none of this is a personal attack, and hesitation is perfectly understandable, I feel that once this issue was brought up, the immediate respsonse should have been to allow the already present and active admins to work together, and to hear everyone out. That way, they could set up a poll for temporary promotions and demotions quickly and promptly - instead of letting it all sit. As Red said in her first point, the community can be trusted, so why not put that trust into effect?
