Roleplaying Admin

Zurkiba · #1 12-18-2004, 10:43 PM

It has become apparent that Graal 2002 is in need of a roleplaying admin to keep the kings in check.

When you do not have a person higher then a roleplaying king to keep the kings in check then what you get is, well you get the roleplaying condition of 2k2. Instead of Kingdoms, 2k2 now has four guilds that can upload weapons to a server.

So please install a roleplaying admin to oversee the kingdoms of 2k2. And make sure that the person can roleplay and doesn't run around screaming "LOL IT'S A GAME".

I'm pretty sure this has been tried MANY times. I know that I once signed a little "petition" for one, but I'm not sure how far that got.

Got any candidates in mind?

Gryffon or Chris are my only candidates personally.

Then again that would mean Chris would have to quit his leadership position.

Edit// Ooh lets get Vermain back

I agree.

Pre-written RP would be a good idea to help enforce this. RP admin can supervise and gets basic EM powers such as the team control (warp players) and monster (summon) control.

Date - Event - If (example in war) <Kingdom> is Victorious then <Result - New Event> else <Result - New Event> - Repeat.

How about me?!

[i]Hahaha who am I kidding[/b]
[b]Wren, Zoe etc. would never let me be because they could never give out items for no reason or win wars purely on powerplaying.[i/]

All right, let us stop with the same people all the time, they get all the goodies. How about someone that has never had an opportunity and is well qualified? For example, me. All I ever do is role-play and is what I love doing as you are all aware of.

I happen to be one the greatest advocates of role-playing to the point of even getting censored by the powers that be.

Yeah, you'd be a good RA.

This isn't a matter of sharing "goodies" between the players. If a certain person is more qualified then they should get staff positions more often. The fact that you think of these jobs as prizes rather than responsibilities doesn't inspire confidence.

Merely stating that you are qualified doesn't count for much.

Kai, please. You know very well that most of the goodies are spread amongst the 'powerplayers' and staff who very often or horrible at their tasks.

Again, not goodies. And yes, staff positions are often poorly assigned, but that doesn't validate Discharge's logic. A person shouldn't be passed over just because they've had staff positions in the past, or given preferential treatment if they haven't.

Face it, most people on Debug get it because of other people, eg, Ana, Nayoko. Nayoko because of Bjorn, Ana, well, I'll leave that to the smart people. z.z

Jobs are usually handed to people staff know, trust, etc. Not always are they incompetent, and I don't think you can show an example of an incompetent staff that was vouched for by x staff.

I think James got up there himself though.. o-o

Anyways, an RP admin would be ignored.. What'r you going to do? Force people to RP? Doubtful. All you could do is rally the RP'ers, and show the non-s that RPing is good, and not just 'zomg peoples r getting itams 4 rping?!!", that's the only problem I see.

xAndrewx · #14 12-19-2004, 01:42 PM

Yea, I agree with Fenix, What would he do? Order people to RP? I would rather let the kingdom leaders start wars than have a RP admin do it.

Zurkiba · #15 12-19-2004, 03:23 PM

You fail to understand what a RP Admin does.

He keeps the kings in check. If a kingdom leader is bad, then that leader is removed. If a kingdom leader can roleplay. Then that leader is removed.

Well not just removed, the RP Admin would work with the kingdom leader to fix the problems.

If there is no check over the kings, then they turn into guilds that dont roleplay.
