It's not just mail, it's stats, etc, all private info would be made available to a member of the game, who is going to be in someone's rival gang, despite who they are. What "SHOULD be kept to themselves?"--someone's living in an ideal world! No offense, but you're a lil new here to know all the history, and why this can't work if they have any power other than answering mails and offering help....

Yes. Will players be acceptable as in-game staff to the community is the million-dollar question. Best reason I have seen yet to get this started right a way!!!!! You had to know someone would go there when you wrote that Cheetah. RE: Zen whats up? - spacebird - 2010.Mar.18 10:43 AM zenith needs to anonymously set up two or three people that she feels can coherently and logically respond the the influx of complete and utter retardation of mails that the members of the community decide to send to the admin. nothing more, nothing less and completely anonymous. RE: Zen whats up? - Dingus - 2010.Mar.18 10:47 AM "zenith needs to anonymously set up two or three people that she feels can coherently and logically respond" Well looks like that excludes the Dingus RE: Zen whats up? - Accipender - 2010.Mar.18 05:13 PM (2010.Mar.18 10:43 AM)Troopermccue Wrote: zenith needs to anonymously set up two or three people that she feels can coherently and logically respond the the influx of complete and utter retardation of mails that the members of the community decide to send to the admin. nothing more, nothing less and completely anonymous. If you want the anonymity, you'd also have to pick tight-lipped players.

It doesn't matter if they end up being players or non-players. Needless to say, no in-game staff member would have the ability to alter stats, read emails of other players, or see personal information like email addresses, passwords (heck I can't see those, they are encrypted), or even full IP addresses. These are things that just can never be given out. However, having the ability to revert a tragic mistake (like someone accidentally clicking a 60-day donator option twice instead of once) could be corrected. Or someone accidentally sending an item to an inactive instead of the player they intended. Pretty much anything that is in our log system would have the option to be "undone" with merely a click. Of course all events by an in-game staff member would likewise be logged for review. I don't plan on handing out the keys without forethought. I'll probably slowly add specific tasks to the list with some form of checks and balances to ensure things are done appropriately. For example, first task would be to create an in-game support ticket system for mistakes and/or player reports. RE: Zen whats up? - Duchbag69 - 2010.Mar.18 11:58 PM just do it.. people are always gonna bitch about something anyways.. they complain when nothing gets done coding wise, they complain they never get there questions answered... it has been apparent both cannot be done by one person efficiently, let some other player deal with the petty shit and you code like crazy... (they = community as a whole) RE: Zen whats up? - w00k - 2010.Mar.19 12:14 AM (2010.Mar.18 11:58 PM)Duchbag69 Wrote: just do it.. people are always gonna wimp about something anyways.. they complain when nothing gets done coding wise, they complain they never get there questions answered... +1 You're gonna have complainers no matter what you do. Zen, I know you try your hardest to be diplomatic with things, not lose touch with your community, and take input from the community into consideration when you make decisions. But just pull the trigger on something if you want to. You're never going to make everyone happy, so it may be time to stop trying so hard to do so. People will have to learn to just f'n accept your decisions for the game, or move on... this isn't a popularity contest and it's no biggie either way. Personally I think being too diplomatic creates more drama for yourself anyways. I told you years ago that you should outsource your inbox to India lol. |
