Kevin and Mystic,
Both of your "short stories" on Unholy Nation and Unholy Nation staff have easily grasped my attention. I was astounded as I read the first few sentences and was easily dragged in to reading it all and left in awe as I finished them both. You both hold valid points that I agree with 100%.
Firstly, in the past year we have gone through an amazing amount of Managers, whether they get removed for various reasons, step down, or even quit in total. I know that Unholy Nation has work to be done, but take some steps forward and press people to get things done instead of quitting/stepping down, which shows people that you don't want to be on Unholy Nation staff, at least in my eyes that's what I see.
Second, I have seen Luca develop many things along side the infinite amount of particle emitters I have seen from him. Sadly I was staff when he decided to take this 2 month "vacation" it was called, to visit his girlfriend. Among this all he kept talking to staff to change his away note in server ops, being gone for a grand total of a month and a half to two months.
As was stated ahead by Mystic, Khyber was away for 3 months with no activity, how she was able to come back and get LAT Admin in an instant is just surprising, I don't think Mystic, that you should have stepped down, you should have kept the spot, honestly more things would have been done, and more things would have been takin' into consideration!
Kevin, I have heard this story from many people, most people leaving out a s*** load of detail, this is the first that I was able to read and understand the WHOLE story behind your quitting of Unholy Nation. I was only told half of it, by guess who... Luca.
I can see that, "Luca has done a lot lets keep him," but I don't see it, Luca fixes things here and there, and makes emitters, ooooh how fun.. Where is the real development, oh wait that's right, in a project him and Khyber are working on... alone.. wtf?
Luca needs to either pick up the game, or be removed from Dev Manager, we are in too much need to have a Dev Manager that screws off and doesn't do what is needed. Our server isn't one of the best, mainly because of the lack of Dev's that are prepared to work AND stay with the current Management.
Not bagging on all the staff on UN, just that I don't see UN moving forward ANY time soon with the current Management. We need to get someone to straighten things out OR get new Management under way, someone that will take matters and get things done, press to get things done, and want things done. Not someone that will sit around, horse around on RC all day then not come on for a good week or so.
Unholy Nation needs more devoted people like Kevin and Mystic on staff, and I hope one day they think about returning because I know I never said anything, but Kevin you did a smashing job, I loved the updated to the Events you did, including the tips for the Events, looks great. Mystic I knew you were always hard at work and willing to get things done, why you were fired for lack of coders help is just dumb, I don't see why they don't want to keep staff that WORKS and does things they should be doing. Unholy Nation staff keeps the abusers and fires the hard workers?!? What is wrong with this, we need to get that fixed!
Thanks for reading the whole rant if you did
