Knock yourself out.

What do you mean unscrewing it?

I'm completely remaking it.

Utopia 2.0

One of the few things in common is the name, and some graphics.

Please get the hell out of this thread if you're going to spam ...

If you'd have READ the thread, than you would have known that I am completely remaking Utopia: there will be no abusive staff, I will likely be the only scripter as I work best alone (and there are few decent scripters willing to work on UC servers) ... I will also be the "Manager" meaning in charge of the development. Ork will still be the owner of course, meaning that he oversees things, but as far as I know I will be the one in charge of the development.

Hopefully I can find a team of staff that are non-abusive (aka LATs that don't need change attributes )

good luck getting staff that don't ask for rights. I'm a GANI Admin, i know how people are when they get their boots.

So you remake all of Utopia then this Ork fellow comes and fires you once its successful, genius.

[Ryyan]

hate to admit it but that sounds true.
he would take credit too.

That would technically be a playerworld scam. It's been recorded here that chris is in charge of the server. If suddenly the guy that made everything gets fired when the going is good. It'll raise a red flag.

What do you mean, boots?

I won't have staff boots, they only lead to abuse. If anything, they'll be for ETs when they are hosting something where they need them (not likely).

No, believe me. If there's one person I trust would NEVER fire me, it's Ork (after Jave, of course).

No, he wouldn't. Ork bans and abuses like nobodies business (sorry if you're reading this Ork!), but he would not fire me.

Yes, but hardly anyone reads the forums. PLUS, as PWA have stated, it'd be my own damn fault.


Update for Utopia (May 27, 2008):
-GUI is almost completed. Completely redesigned to incorporate message system and chat system.
-Fishing system almost completed.
-HP/Killing system completed.
-Time system (to be used for restocking) completed.

I will be looking for LATs and possibly GATs in the near future! Until this time, no screenshots will be posted.

After reading this idea I had a sudden idea for staff power(not particularly for this server):
Have two modes -- on duty and off duty.

-On duty disables all item usage(basically, no ability to fight). It also makes you invincible, non-blocking, and disables your GUI. On the other hand, it enables your staff tools and tag.
-Off duty would... well basically remove your tag and staff tools, and treat you like a regular player, and also return you to the last position you enabled your On Duty.

Of course, there are a lot of systems like this on servers, but none really get too extensive, and still allow them to attack and stuf... I think a system like this would remove really any ability to abuse powers.

That can still lead to abuse but enabling and disabling it after shooting someone or something.

We had something like this on Utopia; it doesn't work at all. The only way to prevent staff abuse is for the staff to not abuse.
