The [[Hexagon Council]] (Hex) is made up of several administrators, generally between six and ten. (It was originally three admins and three senior mods, back in 2005, thus the name.)  They serve the role that admins serve on most forums. Hex members are appointed by Hex and serve indefinitely.  Although Hex members do specialize, there are no strict boundaries on which Hex members have authority where, and all of them are equal in a vote.  Hex members all have (nearly-)full admin and moderator privileges, and can view basically all forums.

Hex members can act unilaterally when they think that they have Hex's support, but disagreement by any other Hex member can result in discussion or vote among Hex to resolve the dispute.  Generally, a majority vote of Hex is enough to decide any issue on the site.  However, Hex tries to operate by consensus and avoid votes if possible. If there seems to be fairly clear agreement, an issue will be deemed resolved without a vote, unless someone explicitly calls for one.
