You're way too generous.

It's just something else to get noticed for =(

I think it's a good idea, but the GST should be doing this. They don't need to server hop and correct mistakes, but they should be able to handle making documents because that is part of why they're around.

This is not completely redundant. Yes, it overlaps a bit with what we have done before ([1], [2]), but if they can get ahold of some competent scripters that can focus on this one task, it is certainly going to be more productive sooner.

As pointed out, the GST does not have the time to teach scripting to everybody. Among more administrative tasks, yes, we do of course give advice on request or while reviewing or fixing a playerworld's problem. But unless you want a more or less complete halt of everything else, the GST is not able to do this team's job (although we will gladly provide help if neccessary).

I'm kind of wondering why I was not brought up to date on this until I get a random IM on my Private AIM asking if I would support them for GST, and then asked to read this forum x.x
But about working on documents. Perhaps if Stefan or unix gave us access to put up documents on the site or so, we'd actually have a bigger reason to. Not a horrible idea to have documents written, but I'd like to have some say and review before they are released. I've seen advanced scripters make efficiency mistakes (including myself at times), so it should be finalized and revised before released. Gotta run to class now, will say more later. Cya

This is just the beginning of some things about to take place. Myself, Osrs, and Polo are all working together on the project. And then if Stefan told me correctly we are going to do the same thing with Level Makers. Then possibly Graphics. Not totally sure yet. But as of right now we are looking for scriptors to help make the graal community more scripting literate. The GST is very busy as Loriel said. They have a lot of other things on their platter they have to do so it is not possible for them to do this. I hope some scriptors will step up to the task and try out. Contact either myself, Polo, or Osrs. All my contacts are in my sig.

Edit: All the documents that are created I believe are going to go through Stefan, Loriel, and Jagen. I am not sure yet. But they will be proofed before being released. I totally understand exactly what you are saying ProjectShifter.

I will help with the level making part of it Email is in sig. I am currently helping Eden spruce up their levels because they have potential and I would be willing to do it for any server that looks like it has even just a little bit of potential.

It's pretty sad when you want to help people and all you get are negative comments.

Not really, this is of interest of the whole community so I fail to see why this is the wrong place to post it.

When you actually help someone instead of just declaring the intent, you might get some credit. But at the moment, all we can comment on are our perceptions of your motives, which don't seem entirely altruistic.

We don't need your thoughts

I didn't express them for your benefit.

Your negativity benefits no one.

Indeed? And what is the purpose of your childish, confrontational whining?
