Well folks, Dennis (who I presume is dead now because I never see him in GG?) had it totally right when he first said it,

BTW,,, Have you all looked at the TOS, and rules that you "SAID" that you'd abide by when you undertook the admin position???

I think not because when I was in GG tonight I was absolutely sick to my stomach about the dissention commentary against each other that I could no longer play the game... That in itself is really pretty bad..

Reflect, take a breather, a small hiatus, or whatever, because if I see that shit happening in any server again, I will MOS DEF make a demo and ask the 'Z" to relook his administration and their lack of responsibility, because you set the MOST terrible example for any other players that there is to get more people to play on our servers by your total dissention toward each other that it is absolutely despicable!
There is no way any new system set forth by anyone is going to cure admin disrespect to other admins unless we take it seriously and make a point to start acting like admins in front of the players. It is one thing to be friendly and open to other admins in chat (Cry_Wolf you bi*ch! !) which a lot of players completely ignore as they play, but I think it is entirely another to be disrespectful over mic-chat, where everyone will hear it and it can not be ignored without intentional admin muting, which we should want to avoid anyway.

I think that in the least there should be an understanding promoted by ZERO and the clan that if you are continually disrespectful to other admins over mic-chat and in front of the players on a regular basis, you lose some powers. Keep doing it, lose admin. Part of being an admin is enforcing the rules for the players and another part is setting a good example for the server. In a way it is just like with children, set a bad example and they mimic you and become bad players with bad habits (racist remarks, mic-spamming).

We are losing a lot of good players from the server -- why? Apart from admin abuse, which is covered by the server rules and enforced by the clan, another reason is that admins who are openly and loudly disrespectful to each other make the server no fun to player in. A little humor is good. A little horseplay and tomfoolery is OK. But calling other admins bad admins (looking at you, Priest), calling out other admins with childish names while acting childish (looking at you, Autumn) is no way that Ibis server admins should act -- and if it is, I quit.

I know it is really asking a lot to ask all Ibis admins to stop being disrespectful to other admins -- even though it should not be -- but in the least can we all agree to restrict our being disrespectful to each other to text-chat instead of mic-spam?

Lets see if we can take baby steps towards better servers so we can attract more, better players that will stick around and want to buy admin at some point to keep their favorite server fun.
