It seems some sense has spread throughout the community.
I would agree with what Vauld is saying in this thread, but Im not gonna say that, "I know how it was back in the old days." Mainly because its likely I don't know what it was like back in the old days.
With regards to the admin team now,
Its already too large and the community just keeps asking for more; thinking it's somehow going to change anything. Point and place, players of the community need to stop asking for more administrator's and ask for better quality administrator's. There has been some decent additions to the admin team, but currently the team consist of Europeans whom are all on at the same time; The admins who are American all live on EST time zone and are online the same time as the European admins. I further would like to iterate my point by stating: Currently we have 10 admins whom are European (not including the trial-admins, SA, and so on) to 3 admins originating from others areas of the world. Admins before the rather sudden changes in team were a lot stricter in their terms. No one has really ever been denied once they've reached Trial Admin status. And the process of getting Trial Admin seems even cruder than getting the job as an Administrator. Let's face it as well, Soulripper doesn't get on enough to actually see who actually deserves the position, so as a result it's based upon admin recommendation 9/10.
A possible solution I can probably suggest is to have a change in hands of position with the said admins that players are discontent with. Your staff is the group of people that keep your player's coming back, if they're not fit for the job, the server is likely to lose players. --Not entirely true in every situation though
About Quality of RP,
Honestly the decline is partially on part of the admins. I realize that admins are as busy as any of us may be, but if they cannot dedicate the time to keep the server "minge-free", then what use are they?
Point in case was this Saturday:
There was basically a massive tranquilizing occurring at the BP. Pechvarry was dealing with the situation, while 3-4 other admins were online standing idle to the situation. I don't plan on saying names, but if the situation is that dire, their needs to be some response.
In all honest opinion, you can't expect RP to improve until you deal with and rid the server of the "minges". Until done so, the server is going to be at a stand still with little improvement.
Going back to what I stated in an earlier time on the forums,
With the exception of a few admins on the team, the team advocates itself as amateur and immature with how it presents itself. Shall I mention the constant trolling that happens on the forums and server only encouraging the players to do so themselves? Or the mischievous acts that admins may perform while on the server also encouraging players to do so, by stating "If the admins can do it, why can't I?"
If anything FL staff as a majority need to:
- End the popularity contest, honestly!
- Advocate a more mature attitude
- Administration rights be placed to a higher standard
- End the bi-polarness, I honestly don't even know whats going to happen anymore when it comes to FL Staff.
- And promote the protection of the Panda Species!
I rest my case,
