Dear Damen,

I am here to convince you to promote SecurityGuard's SecurityGuy's main account on OldCPv16 to admin. As we know he is an admin on an alt account which isn't listed on staff list and he also has database. OldCPv16's existence comes after shutting down everything he has worked very hard on. He has shown time and time again that he can be trusted so much that he even has database access. He is one of the main people even now, working hard to make OldCPv16 active behind the scenes.

So I ask, why can't he just be an admin on his main account? He clearly deserves it and can be trusted with it. Is having another administrator on the staff list really going to hurt? It is a new era for OldCP after all. I think everyone can agree he clearly deserves to have the rank on his main, for everything he has done since the merge. His efforts show greatly.

SG is willing to help anyone, and having admin on his main account would make his life easier because he would not have to switch back and forth on his alt account.

Thank you

This sentence right here is your answer.

SG is the behind the scenes guy, who handles the database and file server. He's not meant to have admin on his main because that would insuniate he's an in-game admin, being tasked with handling user requests and such. He isn't. That's my and Rouge's job.

It's the same case with Gamer, who has db, but never really held admin on his main account.

I'm not discrediting SG's work btw. Being an admin on his main simply isn't in his job description.

and you and rouge are doing a great job. But he can definitely help out as well and we know summer will get a bit more active. Gamer never wanted admin on his main account, by choice, because he didn't want to be bothered by people. SG and everything he does for the game, should be admin ingame if he wants it.

As much as I would love to see orlock admin, I have to agree with this comment. Just like what I'm doing, he cannot become an admin, same with me. we are just admins behind the scenes. (aka background admins) The real admins are: Damen, Rouge, and Orbay. Other than that, he and I can't be admins on our main accounts.
agree brotheris.

Orlock can do everything for people through db anyway. Just as well have him be admin on his main so its easier because people are going to go to him for requests whether hes admin on his main or not. Hes proven that he is a capable and worthy admin. He shouldn't be limited to just db when he can obviously make good decisions on his own.

He's the second most active user atm and he's fulfilled a few requests of my own but has had to go through DB to do it. It'd be sm easier if he can just be an Administrator because he can clearly handle both jobs.

He has to login to his agent account to type admin only commands. That's a pain in the butt to do on a download. SG even stated having admin on his main would make life easier.

I agree with this post tbh I think I should have admin on my main since it takes longer to switch to db or an osti when I could just do most requests on my main and save time but it’s all up to Damen in the end.
