Hehe, you reminded me of that Gunther fella from some Europe band.

Isn't there a rule where if a server goes through so many manager changes it gets like shutdown or something like that?

If there is, it would certainly be a dumb rule, as that is promoting inactive/uninterested managers to keep their positions.

No one knows for sure if they will enjoy, or be able and fit, to be a manager until they take the job. I see nothing wrong with someone passing the spot on to someone else capable if they feel they do not want the job any longer. I'd rather someone willing and able was managing a server, than someone just there because they feel it is their responsibility.

I resigned for a multitude of reasons. The Petition was only the piveting point. As Cassy may have witnessed before the petition, perhaps a week before, I was already not feeling so great. I am a developer, a scripter -- Someone who wants to get things done. But as Manager, people felt that I had the responsibility to not play at all, answer everyone's questions in full elaborate (and complete) responses, to take all the bull****, to fix every problem NOW. I couldn't do that. The more you complained about each single flaw in the game, the more I was delayed. I was sufficating as Manager because you wouldn't leave me any place to breathe and work. I go on working, 3 hours staight. I come back, and my RC is filled with PMs -- The players are accusing me of ignoring them.

I didn't want to be accused of all you accused me of. Most of it is false rumors, misconceptions, tralala...

As for Rick -- You've been yelling about his "Away" for what, 5 days now? Just because he's busy most of the time and doesn't answer PMs doesn't mean he isn't doing his job. A Manager's job isn't to answer questions... It isn't to make you sit on your lap and promise you presents. We're workers, developers. We plan the work that has to be done, and we see to it that it is done. We hire and fire staff as we see need. That is the Manager's job. It isn't to fix problems NOW. It's to fix then all in all when they have the ability and time to.

That is mainly my reason of resigning. As much as I tried to make you understand it's not my job to be questioned, I ended up ignoring those who asked me questions that should have been asked to someone who works in that field (Gangs and Businesses go to Morg, for example. You IM me about them, and you'd've been assured no response).

How about you just all together stop irratating him and leaving him do his own job? In a month, then you may consider him doing it appropiately or not.

I find it completely sad if anyone further tries to argue about this subject. Rance explained very well. Era isn't going to die.

I quit due to reasons I don't want to say. :-).
To all the people who thought I made the petition to remove Velox, you're wrong. I sent the information inside the petition to Spark. Someone got ahold of this information and put it into the petition.

Anyone remember Elven Lands? What?

Manager changes arent neccessarily a bad thing. If more managers followed this system that Era is re-creating now, mabye some servers would have a better chance at survival.

Rick is a very capable manager....he has done alot for Era...and I think he will do a fine job.
