Era...

[Snakeandy7]

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.

#1) I never idle on Zone RC. I always answer all questions when I view the PM bubble, so watch what you say. I take a lot of my time to handle things related to Zone, so I dont appreciate your little comment. Whenever I go away from my computer, I either change my nick on RC to let everyone know I'm not around to answer questions, or I log off RC.

#2) I dont need to play a server to see whats going on. Most oldbies know how things run and how things work, besides, if I log on one day and see snake with a manager tag, then a week or two later see Velox with a manager tag, then a week or two later I see Rick with a manager tag, well, I'd have to be completely brainless to not notice that the mangement has changed between three people in the past month.

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.

Now, Rance has quit and has handed down his position to Rick. A management position is very important, and it's being tossed around like a pizza. What's going on with Era?

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

Snakeandy7 quit because of college, life, tralala.

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.
