Yeah, and some of them really showed great promise at first, but they've slacked off.

The worst part is, they all have high leaderboard status and edit counts because they pretty much competitively badge-game. It's not the greatest role model to set for any future admin applicants, but I guess it's better than having admins who never edit or contribute at all.
