I retained my moderator privileges not because he gave them to me, but because the administrators approved of the action after the fact. He has no undue sway or authority, and to anyone who has not come to know him as I have (a relationship which long predates LMBW), I firmly believe you'd find him as trustworthy and honorable as any. And in his defense, I don't think the fact that you don't know him well truly means he cannot be trusted with the responsibility altogether.

I don't want him to not be check user because of Administrator power abuse (even if it was accidental). I don't want him to be check user because I don't want my IP added to the already-detailed text doc he has dedicated to me on his computer already. Not to mention the seventy other users here. First off, CheckUsers are NOT PERMITTED to randomly check user's IPs. The only time they can check IPs is if they have a very strong suspicion that the user is a dupe or the maker of a dupe. Secondly, don't you think it's a bit paranoid to think he has a detailed text doc dedicated to you? He does that stuff, jsyk...
