Well... what's the point of HAVING a vote if the admins get the "final say"? Either way, the admins choose, in the end. I think having a two part process, where users would need general approval via admins and community, ensuring that they're at least somewhat liked by both parties. As it's currently set up a new user cannot be promoted unless all of the admins are in complete agreement. This will have to change if any more admins are promoted because there will simply be too many admins, and thus they will never agree on anything. Which is why we also need the community to play a part, dividing the responsibility of promoting between the admins and the users.
