Admin inactivity on #4 - Karmahunter - 12-02-2012

I know i didn't use the template. This is a complaint for all the admins being inactive and no grief protection on #4. Many griefers and rule breakers get away with their random murder sprees and no punishment is handed out. And this needs to stop. I don't really know how you'd go to solve this. Maybe just a few suggestions would to be to put certain admins on duty on different servers. Or hire some that frequently play on #4. Whichever you feel is best. I'm just tired of crime going unpunished.

I will start hanging out over there. You will come to regret this.

All adminhelps are routed to IRC, so even if adminwho doesn't show anyone online, you should still use adminhelp. That said, nobody gets paid to do this, we've already got about 25~ volunteers there will sometimes be some gaps in coverage.

Murder sprees often turn out to be from traitors or mindslaves - and when they aren't, and we do punish them, we don't tell everyone else about it. I don't mean that as "don't complain" of course, especially not of G4's being really horrible lately... just letting you know that we're often doing stuff behind the scenes.

Can I ask what the procedure is if an admin checks something out and everything is okay? What I've been able to discern is that the adminhelp is simply discarded and nobody is told anything. I can understand that if the complainer is alive, because that provides metagame knowledge they can act on. But if they're dead, 95% of the time it's for the rest of the round, and you're not supposed to use any meta knowledge from being dead anyway.

Even if there was a standard "I'm looking at this" response I think it'd go a long way to helping this situation a bit. I've occasionally logged adminhelps and not gotten a response until I bothered someone on IRC, only to find out that everything was OK. Even just a standard 'looking into it, i'll do what needs to be done, probably won't tell you what happens though' would be really nice and go a long way toward combating this idea.

I think most of us will at least say "thanks for the report" or "looking into it", could probably be more encouraged though.

When you mean volunteers, do you mean people admins thought would good admins, or do you mean people requesting to be an admin?

we need more active admins on #4. i realise #3 is like the main server but you need to look out for the little people!



ps oddball stroble for G4 admin


Re: Admin inactivity on #4 - Klayboxx - 12-02-2012

Is gibbed #3 really the main server? I've always preferred #4. But yeah, I've only seem GorillaMyDreams in #4 the last few days.


Re: Admin inactivity on #4 - Cogwerks - 12-02-2012

There's not really any difference between the two as far as we're concerned, they're both the main servers. G5 was the exception to that, that was overflow/backup server. G4's population has just been a lot lower lately for whatever reason.


Re: Admin inactivity on #4 - h3half - 12-04-2012

G4 is far superior. But that's mainly because once you pick a server and get to know the people who play there it's always more fun.

I think when gibbed four had a heart attack everyone huddled onto three, when four was finally back up not many people went back to that server. So I guess the roles were reversed.

Admins are usually on when I play. imo this is a subtle way for someone to try and get admin rather than just begging, which is generally a sign that you wouldn't make a very good admin.

P.S Admins are selected by other admins, no one can apply.
