The only job you're capable of is one at the Drive-Thru window.
Fable is easily a better choice.

I made a document that'll be updated weekly based off of the Crimezone that happened between each week. So far, I have the week of (4/25/2021 - 5/1/2021) written down in the document + the first day of the current week, (5/2/2021 - 5/8/2021).

Thank you so much and this is exactly the way things should work here. I'm not a fan of ANYONE making these kinds of jokes, but staff members definitely should stay away from this sort of humor because the users look at them differently and can no longer respect them. I'm glad to see you addressed an issue that the community has been facing for the past few days and I'm sure that the drama will settle with time now that you've made this discussion.

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.
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.

My only other say in this is to have admins be in control of the game, but NOT the south. Being a ruler of land should not give any sort of moderation position.

Thank you for taking the time to write this extensive post detailing what must be done to improve the game. I'll make some remarks about the key points in this post so people have an idea of what's going on behind the scenes:
1. Regarding the Warden situation
I completely agree with this, but I feel I must clear something up. Damen is technically the "warden" of the game, but admins have the authority to do what is needed without the need to ask Damen, as long as it's not abuse or something of the sort. This applies for the cz managers as well. This means we'll be add more changes to the game at a more frequent basis.
2. Regarding create requests
At the moment, excluding bots, there are no create requests that are inherently game breaking. All create sabers more or less have the same damage value, so it won't affect the fair nature we're striving to achieve.
3. Regarding the Empire
The Empire being removed is official, and it has been replaced with an adminocracy (oligarchy of admins). Though I'm not involved in the cz process, I believe that this will allow cz to take place in other islands, rather than the usual "bad guys trying to take over the South" trope. This supports what I said in point 1, about admins having more authority to do as needed.
4. Regarding crimezone
I actually really like the idea of having an official time for cz, and I've relayed this message to the cz managers, who seem to have liked it as well. Updates regarding this will be announced in the future.
5. Regarding the lack of communication
My and Rouge's dms on Discord are always open, so anyone can message us if needed. And regarding the Oldcp Discord server, the current Crime Office server currently serves the same function.
6. Regarding Presidency
Though I don't think Presidency will be happening anytime soon, I definitely agree that this game is lacking in certain regards. At the moment, admins are in charge of the user requests and implementing new features to the game, but we're planning to gather a roster that'll hopefully help us create new features for the game. We're always open to suggestions, so feel free to send me a message so we can discuss it together.
7. Regarding Moderators
I completely agree that mods should hold more responsibility, and rest assured that there'll be a stricter policy on moderator behavior.
However, I can't say the same for Head Mods owning a rank 5 DRAKE, or one moderator owning a rank 4 DRAKE.
Rank 4 is basically mod + /gif and /demote, and I don't see why a mod should have access to those commands.
A Head Mod's job is to keep a peaceful and positive environment within the staff team. This doesn't necessarily mean you have to implement new features to keep said environment. You can do your job well by helping resolve conflicts within the staff team when it arises. It may get boring, but that's the responsibility a Head Mod bears. Rank 5 is simply not needed in this case.
Can it be considered in the future? Maybe. But for now, it's simply not needed.
8. Regarding Database health and weapon damage
We are actually discussing a new default health for all users, because the current default health (7) has been outdated for far too long. The current idea is to make it so saber kills a regular person in 5-6 hits, rather than 2. Create weapons already do around the same damage as regular sabers, so that shouldn't really be an issue. I agree with the bot regulations, and it'll definitely be something to be discussed in the future.
I've taken several notes from your post, and I hope to implement some of these in future updates. A changelog will be released soon with new features added and intended for the game, so keep your eye out for that.

All accounts, existing or newly registered, will be set to the same health, including the current OP people. I asked the cz manager like right now, and they said that users won't get additional health buffs from cz
