A bureaucrat is an administrator granted a few additional rights.

How to become a Bureaucrat?

Like administrators, bureaucrats are usually selected on an as-needed basis only. Typically the most senior and active admin should be granted bureaucrat status. In the event a bureaucrat resigns, they should pass on their status to another administrator.
