[VOTE] Wookimonsta

[BalrogBoru]

I don't know the admin involved, and I didn't vote so my opinion is largely irrelevant in this.

However...

Big respect+ for chadz. Don't think I've ever seen this level of commitment or fairness anywhere else online, ever. He introduced a democratic system for the players, and when they unknowingly voted off the admin who brought the cash, chadz didn't renege. He did not go back on his word. I think about other private servers and gaming communities I have been part of over the years and they were all driven by money, something which I feel shows through in the games. It's comforting to know that money is never going to ruin this. No donation will ever empower someone, that no advertising or item malls will ruin the experience, and no abusive admin or anyone else will ever be able to buy admin powers.

I think I will take a few temporary glitches over the constant threat of corruption or greed any day.

If 57% voted against wookie that must say something

The voting system is good and may help us keep admins on their toes.
Its clear now that they can't do everything they want without getting punished.

I was unhappy with wookie admin numerous times but couldn't do anything about it. Now I see there is a lot of people share same feeling. They wasn't as lazy as I was to start this voting off poll. He is a good player, but he shouldn't be admining. Too much personal preference involved.
I don't think people will visit this forum and vote Yes just for fun. This only happens in game when poll comes up every minute and you just click anything to get rid of it. (i hit 2 by default)

Wait for ptx vote to finish and we will know if this new rule is bullshit or not.

I'm most certain ptx will have many no but can't see till it's finished.

Ok explain to me how an admin can keep everyone happy all of the time?

We're gonna be going through many admins like this i think.

Well i'd assume that every admin will make a mistake, not everyone will ever like them and there will always be disputes. You'll just have to do your job, and when things come down to this, then the majority of people who will vote will have enough sense to decide if you really are a bad admin or if you've done your job, whether or not well.

Trust in the community! :S

Kick a guy for leeching/tking and you get a yes-vote. The guys who agree with the decision is happy and usually wont care to log on the forum to complain. That way you generate yes-votes each time you do something as an admin, being it correct or not. On the other hand, the no-votes needs to be worked for over time. That means, in my opinion, that every no-vote means a lot more than the yes votes.
Which means wooki is clearly on the positive side.

[Xant]

Well, Lilith, you're assuming everyone who voted "yes" had something bad done to them. Not true. You're also assuming everyone who voted "no" had a good reason for it. Hardly. It's a consistent theme in your posts regarding this subject - belittling the "yes" voters and being patronizing. While there's some truth in what you say and some of those who got kicked and rightly so, will vote "yes." But if you're generally a good admin you'll get more no votes.

I'm sure the poll results from pTx's nomination will be enlightening.

[Nemeth]

I am thinking about posting into ptx's thread, even if it gets me muted. Why does lilith have her alt listed in the thread name, while ptx doesn't?

[nuffen]

Nemeth: Ive put em there myself. Lots of people dont mention their alts.

[Nemeth]

Yeah, but ptx is admining actively on Mr Awesome as well, and I'm quite sure there is a lot people who don't know it's him.

[nuffen]

Well.. I think its honest to put all the alts there. On the other side, the idea of doing it didnt hit me before like 2 weeks ago.
I agree it would be preferable tho.

by logic   random

i was recently banned  by     searider elrichson    or whatever his name is spelled.  but he got right.  no bad blood  from me, another things is being banned with no proof by an admin, like wooki, who banned me  becouse someone whined about me on forums., withouth consider that previous than that incident  not even existed a rule that forbidden the ppl to rush the other team.



another example of bad admins? since i flamed    ats on forums  i am banished since a month from all american server, NOT THAT I CARE becouse are usa server,     but the point is such ppl NOT DESERVE  OR HAVE THE QUALITYTO  ADMIN, they are admin becouse they are payng for the server.      doesnt matter how they are fair or reliable.    they can pretty much do whatever they like   

this is the main issue to run an unofficial game.       every  guy that can host a server,  can afford to  not follow general rules but make his own.      if the majority are not happy? who cares he pay for the server you cant kick him from admin it. or he shut down the server

wooki get back on irc we still love you 

[nuffen]

Wooki! IRC NOW! Cmon dude!

[Wookimonsta]

lol, time for me to post.

tbh, im kinda happy about this. Also cool that almost 130 people voted to keep me, means at least some of the time I was a good admin

Got alot of stuff going on in my life with work and going to do my masters soon.
And with absolutely no offense meant to chadz, I have to say I actually got bored of cRPG at the end. It felt a lot like work, and to be honest, I've been much more productive and stuff since I stopped some time last week. I realized there were only 2 reasons I kept playing:
1. To level
2. To do admin stuff
This is not a good way to play a game and maybe it was because I was bored that I did stupid stuff.


I'm not gonna defend my actions, I was never the most serious of admins, I get that, but meh, if people can't take a joke, screw em.
Did I fuck up banning georges? Yeh I did, I had just come back from a long day of work at a job I love with a boss I hate and I had just ended things with a girl I started seeing (turned out she was a racist, and not even just the jokey kind, but just someone who hates foreigners). Georges acted like an asshole but still I overreacted and banned him on cRPG which I shouldn't have. The post I made afterwards was stupid too, but unfortunately I have to spend every weekday at least 7 hours sitting 3 meters from my boss, which I believe if I ever murdered him and presented one of his Meeting Agendas as evidence any judge would rule that self defense.

So yeh, I won't be playing cRPG for a while at least. I'll go play some other games and come back and maybe then I'll have fun again rather than it feeling like work.
In case anyone worries, yes, I'm still gonna send chadz the money to keep the servers running for three reasons:
1) My giving money was NEVER dependant on me getting admin. Anyone who thought so is just an asshole
2) I always try to support independant games/mods that I think improve a game.
3) When (It's a when, not an if, we all know cRPG is like crack) I come back, I would hope that cRPG is still running well and there will be lots of fun improvements.

So yeah, no GTX here, just time to try some different games (and maybe become a little more mature I guess ...)


P.S.: Anyone that said: "Wooki changes map when loosing!" Fuck you guys, I changed the map was it was shitty/imbalanced, even when imbalanced in my favour.
