What does being an RP Admin have ANYTHING to do with being an Events Master? Beyond the fact that RP is typically serialized into special events, nothing.

Oh, much. Doing events is less work then the RP Admin suggestion I saw in the forums. And if you don't host events you should be RP Admin. No.

You don't seem to understand what an RP Admin really is.

Hehe- I think you meant to say, "And if you don't host events you shouldn't be RP Admin."

But regardlessly, I don't tell you how to be a GK Admin, please don't presume to know the job of an RP Admin, Bjorn, considering that my current jobs on Graal consist of being the RP Administrator of two very selective servers. I've actually had people IM me, or PM me, out of the blue, and request my services for their server.

With all due respect, I'd say I'm moderatly well qualified to know what an RP Administrator does.

Um. I could make a server and decide that my 'RP Admin' will have the role of handing out hot dogs to new players. Would that guy then be able to go onto other servers and tell them that he's an authority on their administration hierarchies?

It isn't a fixed role, man. It isn't inherent to the universe. Your activites on other servers are irrelevant here.

Maybe not, but the inherint concept of an Administrator who oversees the processes of the Kingdoms, keeps the delicate ecosystem of Roleplay in check, and helps the kings to establish global guidlines for what is accepted as at least the most basal functions of Roleplay is what we're talking about here, and that is exactly what I have experience in. By that same token, you could make a server, hire a Graphics Admin, and have him be responsible for uploading player's custom heads for them. He's still Administrating something related to Graphics, but the general concept of a Graphics Admin is that they oversee all other Graphics makers for the server and also make content themselves.

Let's not get into a semantics fight, Kai. I can trade blows but I know for sure I can't win a war against you.


And as for, as someone would eventually point out, the supposed conflict of intrests in being the King of Forest, I simply say that Forest's policy has been and shall continue to be objective nuetrality. In Character, our battle is only against those that defile nature. Out of Character, it is only against those that defile RP.

Granted. But having experience within one particular role doesn't give you the authority to say how other people should define their terms. My guy is good at distributing hot dogs, but that's only relevant if viewed relative to a given meaning of 'RP Admin'. My point is simply that there's no absolute definition; it means whatever the manager wants it to mean.

Now, certainly you can argue that the role of RP Admin doesn't inherently involve holding events, but your miscellaneous experience isn't a factor in that. As you have apparently recognised, it's just a matter of semantics.
