What the players want is U.M. as manager. I could cope with you as Asst. Manager though.

Giving the players what they want works within limits, but the "players" isnt a single minded group of people, thats where the problem is.
Everyone wants something different, and as staff you have to work that into the server to make something enjoyable for as many people as possible.

N-Pulse is right where it was years ago due to poor managing, I'd like to see that change. If I fail, I'd at least like to know I set it on the right path. Right now, this is crap.

Emily, Oy! N-Pulse has been 1 of the top 3 servers over the past few months. It did it with just 10 players online, omg!!! How do they do it

Anyways, ...

Old thread where Spark sent a questionnaire regarding who should be manager to those who contacted him about that topic.

Maybe this could apply to the debate over who should be manager for N-Pulse?

There is no need for N-Pulse to go private, it has a large player base, and with UM as manager it will grow even more.

What happened to those rules? Like if a server changes owners more than 3 times, it would have to go private and pass inspecion again? Or the one where if a server wants to upload a new overworld and stuff, they have to go private, and pass inspection with the new overworld? Or were those both just rumors?

Playerbase isn't everything.. I've seen some hosted PW's with a lot more players than half of the classic ones... but you don't see them moving to the classic tab. Why? Quality I'm guessing... and if the quality of the playerworld can stop it from going on the classic list, then I think playerworld quality should be able to remove it from the classic list. I thought that the PWA made it clear that they were not going to let playercount corrupt their views on if a PW should be public or not... and that it would be based on server quality. But I don't think that's the case. =x If N-Pulse was a private, or even hosted PW right now, could it pass PWA inspection? I think that is the big question. Because if it can't pass the inspection, then why is it up? Shouldn't all playerworlds be held to the same quality standards?

Personally, I think Moonie's management skills will be directly proportional to her moderating skills on these forums.

What about the older staff before N-Pulse went down the drain? Ducati, Saidie, Juli?

You are wrong, NP has not always been unstable.

I was only controlling up to a point, unlike others, I believe running a pw is a business...people pay to play Graal, and its servers. I believe running staff should be on a professional level, and that the staff need to act professional, and treat the players with respect. I also believe that the staff should be treated in the same way.
What the players want is very important, but as you said yourself, it is hard to give them what they want, when they all want something different.

I still think that the stuff that was up when I left would have been great if added onto, it was a mixture of old and new, it was a comprimise with the players, as old players wanted the old stuff, and new players wanted something nice to look at...so I modified the old levels, and made them look better with updated looks, and added old levels such as quest levels.
I didnt hear many complaints on what was done, but I could not find the staff to continue with updates, and to do the things we wanted done, so I stepped down to give someone else a chance...all of our hard work was then destroyed for the really old NP levels, and still I kept hoping....
When Zido became Manager, I knew NP as we all knew it was gone, and some day NP itself would be gone, noone listened.

So, here we are today, with nothing....

Also, noone even knows what you are doing with NP, all they know is you are working on a new OW, they have been told nothing, so how is this the players wishes?

To Wan:
No, I was never manager, and yes, I do tell people my plans. Don't assume what you don't know.

To Moonie: Although you and MG did have mant faults as managers, and many people did not like the time you managed, I will agree that the management was "Stable" then. But after you left, that's when the management instability began.

Maybe putting you back will fix it, I brought you back to staff because I believed you could help, and I still do. I'm not really FIGHTING you for the spot, I believe either of us could do it, I just want my fair chance.

Really? wasn't you asst.manager at one point untill PWA got involved?

You havn't told the players, you havn't asked for their suggestions have you?

Yes, he has. He's done the most for N-Pulse whether it was good or bad in quite some time.

Inspiration · #15 01-08-2005, 07:24 PM

The highest I've been is Admin, right now.

And I've only made about 3 threads on the forums and Massed roughly 300 times asking everyone what they thought of what I've added, and what they wanted to see added, and what we should do.

Like I said, you're not on the server, don't make assumptions about how I work.

Moonite, Shouldn't you close this thread like the Era one?
