Making new friends is pretty easy around here. Most of us are quite friendly, and we wouldn't mind some more good users (since most our latest ones were trolls or vandals)

But "I'm going to be an admin soon" never works out. It just makes you sound like you only want to be an admin to "be one", and not to help out.

If you make yourself sound desperate about becoming one then you likely never will. It should also be noted that most admins need to be active on the community for quite some time and have a high amount of productive edits.

This is actually in our rules too.
