Huh, I never thought I'd see people recommending me as an admin. That means a lot to me.

Either way, there seems to be a lot of stuff for the admin team to do at any given time, and not enough people or time to get everything done, especially when some are, or appear to be, less than active. They could certainly use more help, whether it be another admin, or assistants.

Like I said in the other thread, this is just absolutely ridiculous. I think Sled should just give no punishment.

i told damen and his reply was "he should not do that" so idk. This should have been a warning but I'll do what Damen wants me to do just I don't think this will be a harsh punishment...
 Punishment should be "time served." What nonsense.

This is completely silly and a waste of time. It's a weapon that does no damage for crying out loud. This should be a warning at most.

I didn't think I'd tear up while reading a post on these forums this morning, but here I am. Sam, this was beautifully written. To you and the others who are sharing their stories here, no matter your beliefs, I'd like to think that they're watching you from the afterlife, and they are smiling.

I understand your skepticism, but this implements something the admin server doesn't and thats user involvement. This is more than just a bridge between the users and adminstration is about giving users a chance to participate in events such as presidential rallies, election nights, etc. It also gives users the chance to earn new ranks as well, (judge, head judge).
Those are fair points. I'd just hate to see people put in a lot of time and effort into something that doesn't end up having an actual effect on the game. I suppose we can't really know how it will end up without trying it.

- Make it so that LAND OWNERS don’t get MOD. Land owners don’t have the responsibility to moderate, they have the responsibility to rule their land. If they need to spawn in a secure space, make it so that they spawn in a safety room in THEIR OWN ISLANDS!! They don’t need mod, and this will also give other users the chance at moderator when the rank isn’t being hogged by land owners. (No offence to land owners it’s just a hassle when most of the mods on the mod list aren’t even actual moderators)
- Also, people SHOULD NOT get more than one rank. Ranks like wise one and mod, or mod and knight, or moth and knight... it makes no sense to hog both ranks when all ranks have different responsibilities. It defeats the purpose of everyone being able to get a rank when the same people have the same... rank... on 10 different accounts. Pick one or the other!!
 I agree with everything you just said, but I want to highlight these two in particular.

To me, it's really bizarre (and that's putting it generously) that landowners get moderation privileges. If they need some special ability to carry out their duties in their lands, then their rank should have those privileges, instead of making them de-facto mods. The current system is just confusing, and I'd go so far as to say silly. The principle of least privilege is a thing for a reason.

The second point I quoted should also be highlighted and blasted from the top of every building. I there are more than enough people playing where people don't need to have multiple ranks. The only time I can see where this might be valid is for moderators (say, one person is a moderator and a knight), but even then it's a little sketchy.

Thats not true, in its prime, Presidency was the bridge between the admins and users. It would also introduce new ranks, and spike activity via new events.
 Key words: in its prime. The way it is now, and has been for years now, is everything has to go through Damen to implement. Some sort of user interaction like this would be great, but I'm skeptical that it would actually do anything unless something fundamentally changes. What would a "bridge between users and administration" do that we don't already have via the Admin Contact Server, etc.?

I think the main thing with OldCP right now is lack of things to do. I mean, what do you do on OldCP if you're just a regular player? Chat with friends. Well, I already do that on here and Discord, so why would I bother going in-game just to do it there? I think what others are saying are great ideas: bring back games and other things to do that isn't limited to just a small subset of the players.
