Your View: The Most Pressing Issues

[domainoft 191]

Question to the GM's. Mostly Freya and Ever for bringing it up.

 

What do you see mostly in modreq? As in, what type is the most common.

 

Do you think that a large amount of these could be delegated to a "Junior GM" ((new rank I just invented)) to allow you more time to play a GM role in regards to random events and such.....

 

Perhaps more ET members around doing random events and less lore related tasks.

 

I too miss the days of a GM playing a Aengul "Just an example don't hang me lore masters" Maybe something as simple as setting a red stone torch beside the road sign and seeing how a player responds.....perhaps it will lead to an RP of an injured elderly woman, and the Aengul will bless, or curse the outcome for a small period if time.

 

I have even seen Celestial Swords and other such interesting items bestowed upon noble knights that risked them self without concern for safety just to rescue a maiden in despair. Such small encounters create drama that was unexpected, and thus produce lore on there own.

 

How many Noble bloodlines started out with such a story?

Admins, leadership, charisma.

Humm... if I watched modreqs over the course of a weekend, it'd probably look like this:

 

 

20 -30: Renaming

20 - 30 Unlocking

10 - Regioning

20 - Editing regioning (adding someone, removing someone, setting owners, priorities, region flags, etc)

5 - Moving boats 

10 - xxx is powergaming/xxx just killed me!

10 - 20 Question regarding recent updates

10 - 20 Question aimed directly at another team (magic, villain, media, etc)

10 - My horse disappeared/was stolen/is gone

20 -  Can I get a saddle/trade for items

5 - I walked off a cliff/got mauled by zombies, can you tp me

10 - soulstone messed up, can you tp me

10 - soulstone ate me, can you reimburse me

 

* - can you worldedit something I'm clearly capable of doing on my own

* - can you move my chests for me

 

Okay, maybe numbers are a bit off, but that's the gist of it.

More fantasy and magic freedom.

EDIT: And most of all- lower the restrictions even further.

So then my "Thing that could be focused on" based off of what Ever said is.

 

Add a Junior GM role, or else allow mentors or some other group the ability to close Modreq that are unneeded. Such as all the "can I get my stuff back" "I love free TPs" "My horse disappeared" "Questions for other teams" Possibly even give them the ability to tp/unlock chests. 

 

I'd keep regioning and punishment related modreqs under GM control though. As those usually need consideration and looked into.

 

Another way to look at it would be, better instruct the general populace about what a modreq is needed for, and what is not needed for a modreq.

 

Also, by renaming I am assuming you mean edited in names of items/region names? Mostly items? Dang alchemist and there crazy items. Hopefully that will get better with some sort of plugin that allows for all those crazy herbs to be found. "Similar to brewing, leaf drops, and fishing." cough cough this is the next type of plugin i'd like to see.

 

Boo to a magic plugin, I'll predict it now. Regardless of what type of magic plugin you release. "No offense to the developers" there will be a hate storm over it.... too many sides to make everyone happy....even making a  majority will be nearly impossible.

Get new admins

 

Get alot more GM's in the Australian and European timezones

 

GET MORE VAT'S! There's literally only Sparehoe, Lym and Trouvo, they're the only VAT's doing VA's, you need at least 4 more active members, if it's a big team, it's a more successful team, look at the AT, they have recruited much more members and now Applications do not sit around anymore

 

Do a purge of every team and remove all inactive members, aswell as members not doing their job, then open up the teams to recruitment and recruit members quickly as to get everything back to normal

 

The Lore team has been lacking of late and ever since Lago resigned I have only seen Blundermore, Ptah, Ben and Supremacy and yet they're still not reviewing lore, add two or three more members, the more the merrier!

 

Reform the horse system

 

Re-write or create actual war/raid rules, it's much easier then "we dun wunt 2 fite, surry lewl *WARCLAIM DENIED*"

 

Get rid of Nexus PVP

[Heff 2460]

Proffesions and new weapons!

[_SteelMemes_ 64]

Getting rid of those damn midget zombies...

[Baconthief 682]

I don't know about you guys, but I am craving a scandal of some sort. 

[Supremacy 3361]

The Lore team has been lacking of late and ever since Lago resigned I have only seen Blundermore, Ptah, Ben and Supremacy and yet they're still not reviewing lore, add two or three more members, the more the merrier!

 

 

While I agree that the LT might benefit from more members I will note that the pace of lore review has not changed since Lago left the team. Since I joined the team the lore team has reviewed 10 lore posts a week and hasn't stopped doing that since. Before Lago left and after that pace has stayed the same.

[Mankaar 166]

Really top priority should be team reforms like many have said, All teams need to be purged and have updated active members on them.. mainly the GM team. Really events are still.. hard to find for many players. I know you keep hearing this but I personally would like to see more large scale world events, Even smaller ones would be nice. Aside from that the only things I would like to see changed is the really restrictive magic and in general just less restriction but your doing great on that end as well! Keep making things better and this may push the server back into its glory days.

 

P.S It would also be nice to see 4.0 pushed out in the near future.. Anthos really needs to go in my opinion >.<.

[Blundermore 2741]

The Lore team has been lacking of late and ever since Lago resigned I have only seen Blundermore, Ptah, Ben and Supremacy and yet they're still not reviewing lore, add two or three more members, the more the merrier!

*Looks at this... looks to the 7 threads he just accepted/denied...*

 

 

I'm doing work... Though I dunno about the others though, seems school has hit hard on many of the staff LMs aside.

[Brevias 275]

In addition to getting new admins, let's begin phasing out these OOC permission rules which have plagued the server for so long. Lets break the horrible attitudes of players who whine when they lose something.

This and that other thing you said!

[mmat 7460]

This and that other thing you said!

 

 

Get some new admins.

 

They are the roots of the server and everything needs to go through them until the server can improve. Feet dragging is going on and It's not good enough. The other players and I do not care if only two of the four admins want new admins, give us them regardless, because that is the reason why it hasn't happened.

 

This.

 

​Totally not purposely emphasizing my point.

^ This ^

More however that certain lore masters aren't very good.

​You know who you are.

(Not Ptah, he's great.)
