    The Return of Villain Applications

    lol i'm lying

     

     

    Hello everyone!

     

    I want to start off by thanking everyone on the mod team for being a fantastic team, and in my mind the best staff team there is. Without them I wouldn’t have been half as good an admin. Over the past three months of my adminship, things have been relatively stable and in turn, has caused me to sort of stagnate as the moderation administrator. I’ve not been as attentive to player needs as I’d like to be and I’ve not been as active from a server perspective either. As much as I love being an administrator and doing the big red tag things that need doing, I’d rather not hold on to it and let the team down, but instead take a step back to focus on my real life responsibilities. I’ll still be around here and there as a mod manager and able to talk and answer any questions through discord, but my time has come. Thank you to everyone who supported me along the way, including some people who were pushing me for admin since I first rejoined @PXY @dragonwound @Zacho

     

    Now, this leaves the question of who will take over for me once I leave. After talking it over with him and getting his thoughts on the matter, I will be passing the role back over to @itdontmatta, probably the best mod admin the server has had. He’s already had a great tenure once, and I know that this one will be even better. Thank you everyone for your love and support, and feel free to reach out on discord if you ever need anything.

    minimum sentence requirement is cringe

    needing consent to mention someone's rp name is cringe

    please reform forum warnings, having them stay around for 1 year+ is utterly bonkers

    its super easy to just shoot someone a discord message saying "yo do you mind if I talk about you in my post"

    MODERATION TEAM UPDATE

    Summer 2022

    ━━━━━━━━┓ ✠ ┏━━━━━━━━

    Hello Lord of the Craft-ers!

     

    I’m excited to share all that has happened in the moderation team since our last update back in spring! Namely, I have become the new Admin for the team! We’ve also added a few new members in the last few weeks, so be sure to give them your congratulations. 

    cRKJ-6NnjQFT6GIv4usGGzDiAn3FffcD58uZaAMBB7VSKIdYYzSjoWnGzeXpqhyt7wxWCl7PgyEGZXVDZuBuhzAUVJIqGUILVHNbj8zUAx_g0NXpLzeQ1EHH5AHJeRwjtBMBdtCDt9WJmO5Y4ku5BpSZOV_k6Bi_

     

    We all look forward bringing them up to speed and working alongside them closely in the coming months! 

     

    Along with the new members I have some exciting changes to share that will hopefully improve your experience both in-game and on the forums!

     

    Forum Rules: Complete!

     

    Thanks to the help of our lovely managers ZachoSnacko and Burnsider, our forum rules have been rewritten, giving them a much needed face-lift and making them more straightforward and leaving less up to moderator discretion. You can read them on the rules page, or check them out right here! 

     

    Spoiler

    GENERAL FORUM RULES

     

     

     

    We are an English speaking community and, as such, your posts must be in English, use the latin alphabet, and be in a legible font.

    ●     Roleplay languages, such as Elvish or Blah, may be used.

    ●     Character accents may be represented in dialogue.

     

     

     

    Certain behaviors are prohibited. Avoid:

    1. Harassment of other players, which includes, but is not limited to:
      1. Targeted, abusive behavior
      2. Continuous, directed personal insults
      3. Toxic and/or inflammatory behavior
      4. Ill-intentioned or malicious memes
      5. Creating a separate forum account for targeting and/or trolling other players, characters or player groups.
    2. Discrimination against other players or real life people, which includes, but is not limited to:
      1. Racism
      2. Sexism
      3. Religious discrimination and/or anti-semitism
      4. Homophobia
      5. Transphobia
    3. Sharing forum account information with other players.

      1. Excessive gore
      2. Pornography or sexual content
      3. Excessive gross content
      4. Loud videos or sounds (i.e., screamers)
    6. Advertising other Minecraft servers or soliciting players to join one.
    7. Revealing personal information about a player against their wishes, known as doxxing, is prohibited. Doxxing includes, but is not limited to:
      1. Photos
      2. IP address
      3. Location
      4. Other internet accounts
    8. Double-posting or spamming.
    9. Posting “r” or otherwise reserving a post for later editing and updating.
    10. Plagiarizing content without the permission of the original author, or using it without crediting them.

     

     

     

    ROLEPLAY SUB-FORUM RULES

     

     

     

    1. Posts should primarily consist of roleplay.
    2. Any memes or OOC comments must be contained in a spoiler.
    3. Responses in topics should be at least three sentences in length, be related to the original topic or prior responses, and contribute to character development or the value of the original topic.
    4. Metagaming is prohibited. This includes, but is not limited to:
      1. Using knowledge gained outside of play
      2. Inserting OOC references into roleplay
      3. Bringing OOC motivations into roleplay
      4. Responding to a post as a character that would be unaware of it
    5. Mentioning the death of a non-permakilled character, unless that character has been perma-killed (PKed) is prohibited unless the player has given their consent.
    6. Players must roleplay with a character which they currently control and play.
    7. Players may not use screenshots of roleplay or of another player’s skin without their permission.

     

     

     

    OTHER SUB-FORUM RULES

     

     

     

    1. Only players mentioned or involved in a report in the Reports sub-forum may reply to a topic.
    2. Only the Nation Leaders or PROs in an ongoing conflict may post in the Warclaim Discussion sub-forum.
    3. Banned players may only make a separate forum account for the purposes of creating an appeal in the Appeals sub-forum.

     

     

     


     

    Public Appeals: Complete!

     

    In the interest of the community and of staff transparency, we have decided to trial unlocking public appeals. Our philosophy behind this is to enhance the appeals system by allowing our community at large to play a part, however small, in policing our community, as ultimately you guys are the most affected by banned players returning. Our hope is that by allowing you all to weigh in on these appeals, it will assist the moderation team in making decisions that will benefit the server. 

     

    While we are eager in allowing you all to voice your opinions of the players’ behavior and actions that lead up to their banning, we also ask that there is some level of decorum in posting on these appeals. 

     

    Spoiler

    Posting Guidelines

     

    These guidelines are intended to allow a community response to those appealing their bans and all rules are made in following that ideal. Moderation discretion ultimately chooses what is and is not allowed in the context of an appeal.

     

     

    1. All posting involved in the appeals process must adhere to the forum rules.

     

    1. The intention with allowing all players to respond to ban appeals is to have a community opinion as to someone returning; however it is expected that all players maintain a higher level of professionalism and do their best to upkeep the quality of the forum.

    2.1 Because of this, all responses to a forum appeal may have no memes, must keep to the topic at hand, and need to be in a readable and common format.

     

    1. Any responses to an appeal need to relate to the topic at hand; furthermore the responses must only be related to any incident of that specific infraction type for them to be considered on the appeal’s responses.

     

    1. Most important is the idea that community response needs to be appropriate and on topic related to the appeal. Each person is allowed one response to an appeal and continued conversation via topic responses will not be allowed.

     

     

     

    Heists: Complete!

    The current state of heists is kind of abysmal. The mod team has done what we can to get on top of apps but as they are currently, heists are a hassle for both the players and the moderators. In an effort to solve this, we’ve decided to temporarily remove heist applications, allowing players to simply make a modreq for a heist-able item instead of having to fill out paperwork in order to roleplay. Rules will still have to be followed, so you can’t just yank items out of a frame or armor off of a stand freely, but if you have the roleplay ability to steal something, modreq for it and we will help you out. Once the modreq has been claimed, a team member will either help you immediately if they have the time, or schedule a time up to a MAX of 48 hours later.


     

    If you have any thoughts that you’d like to share about these updates please feel free to post here or reach out to me privately on discord! :)

    Just figured people should know how this group acts behind closed doors as well.

    Can't we also find it funny that both our mod admin and community admin (and ST admin, forgot them for a second) are in this discord? Where the owners of it openly call members of our community whores and obese? Let alone this......

    LOTC Mod admin with admin in this discord... I'm sure he will tell us everything that goes on behind closed doors, no?

    OOC Tile Auctions During War

    You're stating that because of the absence of rules it's okay, but then with other things you've previously stated that you're going to disallow something not because it's in the rules, but because it's against the 'spirit of the rules'.

     

    Is having an anonymous OOC auction of tiles to change PROs etc during a civil war warclaim, presumably from what we know, to fund either the war or them fleeing elsewhere after the war, not completely against the 'spirit of the rules'?

    I'm not sure where you're seeing that I said it was okay? I've said clearly to multiple parties privately and in this thread that it would be brought up for admins to discuss at the next meeting.

     

    And regarding the 'spirit of the rules' that I mentioned in our talks, it's in the second bullet of the War Overview tab in the war rules. It also mentions specifically that loopholing what is written is prohibited. I recall most of the questions I was getting where that was my answer was in response to foreign volunteers which is also against the rules. Internal wars by the spirit of the rules are meant to be internal! I view having people that live and RP in other nations up until war breaks out and then moving to Acre so that they can be counted as citizens for the war as a form of loopholing.

    OOC Tile Auctions During War

    in Miscellany

    Posted

    tldr:

    Spoiler

    I didn't facilitate nor support the breaking of rules as mod admin.

     

    So, first of all if you look at my DM's with Kamikaze_Reaper that were leaked, I never said that it was something that would be allowed or that I was helping it along. I specifically said that I would bring it up at the admin meeting and that if it was shot down by the team then anyone who had spent Mina on a tile would be refunded their money. I never told anyone that this was a sure thing, and when asked, I recommended interested players go through with any roleplay involved in case the decision would be to allow the selling of the tiles.

     

    I've looked through both the war rules and the nation rules multiple times and haven't been able to find any instance of selling tiles during war being prohibited. It not being outlined in the rules is what prompted me to mark it down to be brought up at the next admin meeting. I even told aiden when he first asked that lived in tiles or tiles that had vassals participating in the war would be unable to be sold, so there is no worry there either.

     

    I understand everyone's concerns, but most of these questions could have been answered with a private message! My DMs are always open :)

    I guess it actually is possible to meme your way into becoming the mod admin just by saying it enough times.

     

    First of all, I’d like to start off my reply by saying: Thank you, Alex. Being able to see the inner workings of the team, a lot of stuff that you’ve done has gone under the radar by most of the server and this really has been a thankless position.

     

    I'm super excited to get to work and help this server continue to be the Number 1 Minecraft Fantasy Roleplaying Server in the world. I've got some plans for some future updates, some rule changes, and more that will (hopefully) continue bringing us all in the right direction together.

     

    With all that said, Moderation Team, please bear with me for a bit as I work to take off my training wheels and step into the spotlight.

     

    And for everyone else I hope that my time as admin will positively impact your experience on the server. I will do everything I can to make you feel as amazed and captivated by the world that I stepped into over a decade ago!

    You are one of the people I've known the longest from this server (if not THE longest). What are your favorite memories from Aegis? And side question, was there any moments of RP we shared that still stand out to you?
