The thing that really makes me the most averse to blah is how some players use it as an excuse to have insults or language that has no place in the setting of LotC, or sometimes even on the server itself, exist. To give you an example; why do so many orcs use some variation of "Puzzih" or what have you? We all know what it is but it doesn't fit the orcs at all. It really makes them feel less like the honorable warrior race they are supposed to be and more like teenagers hurling nonsense insults.

As a fellow ex-Admin I have to agree with your statement on the approval process. It was my main gripe around how the administration works and I strongly believe that it is a large hindrance. The system makes sense on paper but mostly serves to slow down any decision made by the admins. I obviously don't know if thats how it still works but if it is I'd strongly encourage the current admins to find a new protocol. Worst case scenario you let a single admin make an autonomous decision (so long as its not a massive one) and its bad then you just apologize and change it. I believe that smaller admin level issues need to be dealt with in a timely manner and the idea that it needs to take weeks in order to get it just right is a tad silly. The most infuriating thing for players isn't necessarily receiving a bad verdict, its waiting ages in order to even get one to begin with. The concept that a verdict can't change if more evidence is presented at a later date or if things are explained more clearly is also silly to me.

Might I suggest an addition to the FAQ? The number one thing I always hear is "What does each admin do?" Sure you can't reveal everything but there must be some sort of break down of what everyone handles within the administration.

All applications expect Aemich's are accepted! Good luck to the fighters!

Admin is an interesting position. Truth be told I never really wanted the position. Sounds odd, I know, but it's true. The reason why I accepted is because things were falling apart among staff and I had a lot of spare time around then (still had like a month left in my summer). Since then I like to think that I’ve done at least a few things to help us get out of the abysmal state we were in previously, though there is obviously a lot of work still left to do. My part in that work is done though. There is two main reasons for that. First of all I’ve lost interest in the server. Simple as that. The second, and much larger, reason is because I wasn’t planning on staying as admin very long in the first place. My university classes take up most of my time right now and I obviously want to focus more on them. I’ve had some fun times on the server. Peace.

Can you explain a bit what this version changes from the last one that was already accepted?
