Pwa

I am curious as to how people feel about the PWA.

Do you feel they do their job?

Do you feel they have too much power? (To this question be fair. Because in the wrong hands any power can be bad.. but this question means.. with good staff, is the power they have okay?)

Do you feel anyone in particular is out of place? (PLEASE do not use this to flame.. just name names and a responsible reason)

I feel its neccesary for people to take responsibility for their actions, and I know a lot of times people get by with so many things just because they silence those who want to say anything.

So I just want to know.. in a MATURE fashion please.. what you think.

Poor. Very poor. With the exception of Malinko. Like him or not, at least he has tried.

I had to look on the Graal Bible to find the actual current list of PWA's. Here they are:

Houdiniman
GrowlZ
Bjorn
Malinko
--Chris--

What has happened as of recent by most of these PWA's? Houdini, GrowlZ, Bjorn, and --Chris-- aren't even very active on the forums. More can be done. Much more.

The same to me when I worked on Versus.

It seems to me that its pretty much impossible to make the classics tab...and its not because standards are too high or anything, its simply because you can wait months and months but the PWA will still not review your server...besides Malinko of course.

True Very True ...... I mean we pay 60-100dollars USD to have our playerworlds hosted ..and we have to wait and wait and wait to have our playerworld reviewed I know chicken and myself have been waiting for about 2 months now and the only person who has tested it is Malinko.... By time we even get a review if we ever do we will have to pay more money to get more server time ... I think its kind of unfair...anyone else?

The thing is, Graal Online expects us to treat them as professionals. No complaining publicly about the product, etc. However, they don't present themselves as professionals.

Growlz + Malinko; if I ever need anything they're always there to help.

Bjorn; He does a lot of work, he's very active within the Graal Community

Chris + Houdiniman; Dead?

Malinko is by far the most active, always been helpful when i needed him, i was banned on a server because something went wrong with my account, and i was accused of glitching the graal client 0_o.

I told malinko and he got it sorted right away ^_^

I think that Malinko and Bjorn do a good work. Others admins should be removed since they don't do anything. (according to what most of you guys says about their inactivity, I am not much active so I can't say by myself).

Just so anyone knows before I get involved in a witch hunt, my comments before were not off personal experience, but from talking to friends and reading accounts here.

No matter what the definition of what a PWA should and should not do, there is a field of improvement that can be accomplished.

HoudiniMan is a senior member of the Playerworld Administration, he has done a lot of work for GraalOnline.

GrowlZ is another senior member of the Playerworld Administration. He is quite active, not on the forums, but he does look at the forums quite often. He tends to post in threads with relevant information. He's not that active with inspections in the past few months, but he did not have Gold and/or VIP, so he can not be blamed for such a thing.

Bjoern is a good member of the Playerworld Administration. He knows how to compromise and get things done when it needs to be done. Keep in mind, he is learning English as it is, and getting quite good at it. In addition, he is the Manager of Graal Kingdoms, which occupies a lot of his time. If he's needed, contact him via forum private message or support center, he'll answer as soon as possible.

--Chris-- is a new member of the team just as me, but has been a former global staff known as the Global Graphics Team which seems to be abolished now. Though, he does tend to deal with the major graphic issues as he did with inspections of graphic content when he was the Global Graphic Team administration/staff.

Bravo: Ages of Ignis (playerworld90)
Dark Rival (playerworld13)
Dark Nations (playerworld58)
Endora (playerworld93)
Exodus (playerworld125)

These are a list of worlds which have applied for the Hosted tab within the last few weeks, months for some. I think Shangri-La in recent applied for an inspection to Hosted as well. There are also some requests for the Classic tab, but I'll keep that a secret.

Though, it's been weeks, and I've *****ed again and again in the private forums to have these inspections completed. Being a new member of the team, I even set up deadlines, which I don't have the right to do so, but I did it for GraalOnline. Hell, I've picked fights with a number of global staff, who hate me, but I don't care to be honest. Though in all respect, I have apologized to all of them, and wish to have a professioal relationship with them for the sake of GraalOnline.

Though, until all the requests of GraalOnline are completed dealing with the Playerworld Administration, I will keep the opinion that we are doing a BAD job until GraalOnline feels as the team is doing good.

Like me or not, I do the job I was told to do, so deal with it, and I will improve. For the record, this is MY OWN personal opinion about the team, so I'm not speaking for the Playerworld Administration. Though, all of them do a great job, just talk to them on a personal, private basis, and GraalOnline will see what can be done.

Is it fair to point out certain people's good and bad points?
It's basically 'bashing' the members of the pwa. If you didn't have an opinion on the PWA and answered the question, I wouldn't mind.
