Admins

[Mallissin]

I think if most of the admins respected the rules, they'd be less drama. Most of the rules were written for that very reason.

If there's a conflict between admins in-game, they should try to keep their cool and take it to the forum while not letting forum arguments come in-game.

I'm sure if a certain admin seems to be misusing one admin feature or another, Zero or Jigsaw can limit their access to it as a response to complaints.

I'm still looking forward to what features the new admin system will bring.

hey mallissin why you put up the demo's already?? I've been patiently waiting for them. I'll give you a couple more days to post them up before I rip you a new one.

HOLY has already called you out, and I haven't seen one yes vote yet that you have the demo's.

Stop avoiding/changing the post so that way people can't read the one's about your pathetic lie about the ZM admins abusing there admin.

Guys, the bold print means he is serious.
We should take is serious, seriously.



But seriously, ya, ibis has been around before some of yall were even old enough to talk; drama is in ibis's middle name.
Its gotten a bit more heavy recently because of some issues with management (mainly ZERO not being able to be on as much because of his computer issues)


Oh and to clear it up; there is NO SUCH THING AS SENIOR ADMINS. The only thing that could be considered senior admins is clan members.
Anyways, we *ARE* implementing a system that deals with admin rank, for example, there will be admins that get on PROBATION for abusing (less privledges), TRUSTED admins (more privladges) and then SUPER DUPER ADMINS.
Oh and the new system will auto add admins, so that means instant activation....we are working on it! Just be patient!

Read the second rule in the TOS (link provided above). Although, senior admins are not mentioned in TOS, the term is generally accepted to describe as the first admin on the server. It should apply to Pub, ZM, and GG, as it prevents total anarchy over map changes and issues over map changes.

On the ZM server, admins do respect the senior admin concept (in there, they are more lenient as they talk amongst themselves and come to a general consensus to the map selections for the map vote).

I don't goto the GG server often enough to know whether the concept do apply there or not. I've witnessed it the one time when I randomly decided to just spectate the GG server, but that itself cannot be conclusive on my two cents on it.

However, I do like to reinforce the importance of that term, despite being an imaginative term.

P.S. Jigsaw, you still play starcraft/broodwar? I play UMS maps...particularly Helms Deep Annatar.

How do you know who is a senior admin based on looking at their tag?

[Mallissin]

Since the TOS says "First admin", why not just call them that instead of "senior admin"?

Anyway, First admin can be found by looking at the server properties and sorting by time. Longest admin online would be the first admin on.

I mean why take something that already have been socially accepted in the first place amongst most regulars and admins. Just leave that senior admin term with us.

Why don't you just remove Virtus' admin already?

It's obvious he's the problem.

All of the other admins are capable of being nice to each other, and respecting eachother.

And if not that, then they tolerate.

He's the ONLY one who has a problem with everyone, and abuses his power.

I used to be cool with him, then he started shit with Nemesis, then tried the same shit on me.

Then goes around telling lies, trying to discredit me, and other admins, to get the attention off of him.

If he was no longer an admin, this "admin problem" would not be here.

That's my 2 cents.

...for now.

[Mallissin]

Fine, Hobo. FINE! Have your "senior admin". Freakin' GILF lovers.

It's obvious he's the problem.

Virtus seems to be singled out repeatedly but most of the stuff I see in the demos people provide isn't much different from what I see other admins doing. His only crime seems to be not joining one of the admin cliques, which has the advantage of a loyal following of other admins that backed you up when accused.

Loner FTL!

I think I was there when Virtus and Toasties were fighting. I was the one who put up a vote to see if people wanted to play the map or not, the answer was no, then I asked virtus if he wanted to play the map still even though a larger majority didn't. Besides, half the people who press 1 for "Yes" were probably just 1 pressers because they don't bother to read or don't care.

Anyways, I tried to stop their arguing multiple times with no success.

But yeah, don't blame toasties for the vote when I was there, that was me. I think you just ignored me though, Virtus..

Drama is in Ibis' middle name? I thought it was Brama.. Someone made the abbreviations wrong.
