I disagree. I'm really short-tempered, yet I do best as an admin or other high ranked staff member. My point is that everything can be controlled if wanted, specially on the internet where you've got time to think about what you'll respond - heck, you can be entirely different person.
Anyway, my list of things would have to be:
Knowledgeable in the website's niche
Know their way around the software they're using
Able to speak language the website is in fluently
Have time and possibly money to invest into the project
Open-mind, because dictators aren't well received on the internet
Have at least minimal experience in web-design or web-development
My point was this: admins should be able to get along with people, so if you're not being short tempered on internet with your fellow members, then thats awesome. Thats what an admin needs.
Believe me, I have met people who are short tempered in online life. Well, you can also see those kind of people in the security related niche! Or IRC chat rooms!
You know xpl0iter - In all my experience I have never seen anyone write ^ but it would make sense to rather than writing he/she.
On topic:
I agree with xpl0iter on this one that they should have the ability to get on with people. Andraž Rihtar - I'm not saying that people with short tempers can't run forums, I just believe that they would struggle to run a larger forum with loads of activity.
