Agreed, it's just that Pizza Team was a good example of the style of community gaming I was referring too.

Management should be seperate from LAT. You don't have a project manager in any corporation or business focusing only on programming- they delegate responsibility and meet actual deadlines.

Results drive success rather than the way you get there. We need to focus on bringing GOALS rather than BEHAVIORS. Someone scripting stuff and making a lot of levels is great, but thats just part of the way to get there, it doesnt bring the culminating end result.

I would bring as manager IDP and IPA's (Individual Development Plans and Individual Performance Assessments) to the staff that focus on quality results. This is the way to get things done. These reviews would be public access. I also recognize that these are volunteer positions and I will insure incentive will be there to produce for the community with valid recognition for efforts that bring positive results.

Listen, I know some of you may not like me due to my character in game- but if any of you have any experience with corporate business you understand that there is a strong difference between developing a professional rapport with someone rather than a personal one.


Like I've been saying- I can drive results on this server. You basically have two choices right now. You can choose a manager who is going to be scripting and making levels the entire time, neglecting 'management' duties, or you can choose someone with actual management EXPERIENCE and CAPABILITY such as myself. I've shown you I have an actual plan to manage and retain staff and I can bring players (new and old) to the server. Thanks for reading.
