Managing staff

unixmad · #1 05-14-2002, 02:28 PM

Hello,

Since a few days i was trying to find solutions for managing staff.

It's hard for Stefan and Me to known who can be trusted or not and who the community would like to see in the staff.

I have found 2 solutions:

1) Each user will have a rating, this rating is based on what others think of you, to be valid this rating will need a minimum of 10 peoples to give opinion on you. (If you don't want to be rated, it's possible, just go on your options and disable rating)

2) I am programming a point system, This system will allow high staff to give point to staff that have done good work.

Then the idea is to give staff positions to peoples that have a good rating and have a minimum of point allocated

For example if you want to be :

· FAQ you will need 3 points
· Event Admin you will need 2
· …

Tell me what you think of this.

Unix.

What about those who don't post in the forums, and yet have great potential to be staff?

Birdbird_0 · #4 05-14-2002, 02:34 PM

Might have some issuses, alot of people can have a compleatly different attitude on the forums than what they would have in graal itself, or dealing with a differnt person.

But yes I like the idea, gives it a more organized feel, and is helpfull in my opinyon.

I like it.

how do you vote?

unixmad · #6 05-14-2002, 02:36 PM

If you want to be staff you need to speak with the Graal community, then have a forum account.

dont know. but u have two :-P

unixmad · #14 05-14-2002, 02:43 PM

The idea is not to vote on forum attitude but on Graal attitude in general, forum is just part of the general attitude.

So this would mean, all current staff will be fired?

Redflair · #33 05-14-2002, 06:34 PM

mh, good idea

... it will be placed in-game too?

Gangster88 · #39 05-14-2002, 07:06 PM

Cool idea

Loriel · #40 05-14-2002, 07:14 PM

I believe this will lead to corrupt staff members who don't do their job, but just try to please players because they are now "in power".
Imagine me, as asst. guild admin, declining a copyrighted guild tag. Now all the people who were supporting it would probably give me a bad rating, although I have done my job.
In contrary, someone would blindly accept a guild, and all it's future members are going to rate him good, while he wasn't exactly doing his job.
I think this system is a good idea, and will definately help a bit, but it won't solve all problems. Most people, probably including me, will base the ratings they are giving out on personal opinion, and won't try to be objective - maybe not knowingly "unfair", but sure not perfect.
- Just my personal opinion, and I am not saying "Remove this rating system, it sucks!!!1" but "Think about how to improve it

"

On another note, and completely off-topic (besides the fact that unixmad will be reading this... hopefully), I am still confused why my ADCP Access was removed. I am indeed needing it to do my job, and was never informed of being fired, and even Tiki says that I am still his assistant. Please excuse this completely unrelated point, but neither Stefan nor Tiki could help me, and you didn't exactly make good experiences using forum PMs or email to talk to you, Unixmad.
