What makes a good manager?

[Darlene159]

Note that I haven't mentioned anything even related to attitude. Why? Because it doesn't matter. If you do all of the above, you're a good manager. If you don't, you're not. Attitude can contribute, but it can't substitute.

I agree with alot of what you said, but I do not agree that a person HAS to have all those qualities to be a good manager, and, I do not agree that if they dont have every single one of them, they arent a good manager.
I agree that being able to script, make levels, ect....would be a plus, but I dont agree that it is extremely necessary to be a good manager.
I only know basic scripting, I cant make graphics at all, and I can do levels pretty good....it is true that I had a harder time as far as scripting and graphics, but I dont believe I was a bad manager because of it

also, I believe a persons attitude plays a large part in managing, if a manager has a bad attitude towards the players, they aren't going to feel as comfortable on the PW. It is a fact that alot of players like to talk to the Managers of the PW's, and a large part of players complain about Managers who have bad attitudes...they like to be treating like human beings, not something that is just an annoyence to the manager.

Some of the people who came to Npulse told me that they played there because the Managers actually had conversations with them, and didn't act like they were above them, and that is important to me.
