What about me? Sure, I wasn't Manager. But hell, did I abuse when I was working on Era. Must be something else, because nobody ever confronted me with it, so what's the big deal with Chris abusing his powers?

Lol Chris would have been a good manager if:

1. He wasn't bias
2. He wasn't corrupt
3. He didn't treat most players like ****
4. He didn't hypocritically "flaunt his new found powers" on era

I meant to apologize to you also. I know you put a lot of work into the German translations so it's a shame I won't be able to finish the starting guide. I'll offer the method we were using to GC, and hopefully he can find someone to make the guide.

Good idea. I'll also try to help him with the German translation further in the future.

As a developer Chris, You were very good to Era. But let's face it like some say, You did not make the best reputation. I'll also say I didn't hate you, but I necessarily didn't like you. You were a good manager in terms of development, but bad in terms of good staff example. Best of luck in Kentucky, and don't breed with your family like the rest, Be a step up their average social class level.

Despite what anybody may think of Chris personally, he worked hard and provided a lot of good updates to the game. He made things that other managers didn't have the will or the ability to carry out and finally implemented them.

I really think that he is one of the only people who could have completed New Era with the features and updates that the game needs to survive.

No one is perfect. Every manager makes their mistakes, Chris Vimes is not exempt from that.

With that being said, I wish the best of luck.

active managers who work on era as much as chris did are GOING to do things with their power that piss you off, get over it.

bye chris

Not sad to see you go as I don't play Era.
One question remains: what will you do now?
I probably didn't get everything right.

Donark · #25 08-14-2010, 12:43 AM

This is why you should be over 18 to become manager.

Considering Era's playerbase is typically considered the lowest of the low, the fact that they hate Chris only confirms he was the best choice.

alo chris i had a lot of fun that time i logged on era and we all messed around~

Era's been in the gutter for so long now that one Manager's screw up doesn't even really matter anymore. Someone said this earlier in the thread, but Chris was good development-wise. Personally, I like some of the things he's done for the server. He just has such a bad reputation.

So Chris, as for you leaving.. I'm not going to sit here and say I hated you, because I did not. I'm not going to say you were a bad Manager, because development-wise, you were a good one. But, I'm also not going to sit here and ask you to stay because with that said, according to your reputation, you were a bad Manager. I don't know if what everyone says about you is true, I never really bothered to get to know you, but that is what everyone says. So, I'm neutral on this one. Whether you stay or go, it doesn't bother me.

I know my opinion isn't exactly valid because I don't play Era, however I do know that Chris did put a lot of time into providing many updates over the time he's been working for Era and I'm sure Era wouldn't be the same without you.

What server do you play again? I think you're in the wrong sub-forum.
