Nein nein, we need to have a poll for the users. ^^
It helps in calculating and keeping up with the number of votes.
Though we should have a thread specifically for the votes as
well.
A thread where users place their votes as such:
User-
My vote: -Insert name-
Reason: -Insert reason.-
That way we can keep track of reasons and actually look and take
into account the user's opinions as well. ^^

I have a proposal as well; for a permanent and more stable
change to the staff. It will be quite a process, but I believe
the end result will be beneficial. Simply put, we’re just
redoing the staff, but in order to ensure that it’s organized,
fair, and stable, there is a process that should be undergone in
order for it to go smoothly.
1. The current staff needs to have a meeting in order to
discuss the following things.
a. Exactly how many Admins, GMs, and Mods should be appointed
for the site
b. What are the exact responsibilities, and powers of each
position?
2. The current staff should be wiped clean. No one would be
considered a staff member during this period on the site
3. The members of the site will appoint, and vote on the new
staff members as equals. A team of three trusted people will be
appointed as the panel to manage the “election.” They will be
granted temporary Admin powers in order to allow things to move
properly.
There are three steps to successfully nominating a member of
staff:
1. A member (other than the appointed member) must nominate
the member. The appointee must state at least one valid reason
that the nominee would be good for the position
2. Another member (other than the appointed member must second
the nomination
3. The appointed member must accept the nomination
The rules for election will be as follows:
1. A forum will be set up specifically for the voting in of
staff members. It will be created in the form of a multiple
choice poll, in order for each member to vote for the proper
amount of staff members. Votes will be counted according to I.P.
Address, and only those who were members before the day the
forum was erected will be permitted to vote. This will eradicate
the issue of people voting with multiple accounts.
2. A predetermined period of time will be allotted for the
election to take place. Those who fail to vote within the
allotted time will forfeit the right to a say.

Though my position is still in question, I second the motion as
a user. ^^

Then I suggest we start making some moves. First, we need a
forum where we can set the parameters for the staff

I'm PRETTY sure, me doubting your reasoning on the staff wasn't
a personal attack.
now, take a breath and read what I said from the view of a user.
if I wanted to attack you, I'd take it to the piss thread. As I
didn't, doesn't mean you need to be rude with your response.

I actually wasn't rude at all, I was viewing your post
logically and in the mind of a user. ^^ You jumped to
assumptions yet again.

Orrly? 'Cause, ya know. Any normal admin wouldn't have said that
I was wrong and reaching for nothing. ^_^ That, amaya, is being
rude. I'm pretty sure the two admins I've proposed this to in
private weren't as rude as you. (:

Alright.
So.. Before I type any of this; Lemme say this. there are things
I like about amaya. There are things that I like She does. I
think she has some really REALLY good intentions. But, from my
view; half the time, Amaya only does things that benefit her and
people close to her.
For example, the staff. Ken was only admin because, in my
opinion, he was close to her. Granted, he did have leadership
skills; Ken is hardly ever around and when he wasnts to be an
asshole.. he's an asshole. Also, same with Mike. To the t,
actually. And Greg and Jamie. though I don't know much of Greg,
I do believe the only reason he still ahs GM status is that he's
close to Amaya. Jamie.. we both know Jamie. he's got good
intentions sometimes, but, overall; if it benefits him, he'll go
for it.
In regards to her position on the staff; I believe she should
still be an admin, but not the head admin. Though I respect all
she's done for the site, I think the site would benefit a lot
more if there was a second admin with as many rights as she has,
I.E. Final decision, complete overrule, ect; or if we gave a
shot at a whole different 'head admin'. Though it's to my
understanding all the admins have the same power, we all know
that the site-creator has some-what of an upper hand.
though I'm not on staff, I think the site would benefit a lot
more with a set number of admins, GMs and maybe even two or
three mods.
For example; 6:4:2. Six admins, Four GMs and two mods.(will be
explained later as to why I have this here) I think it'd be a
LOT less of a hassle to get all the information to everyone if
there was less staff. Also, I think we should (with the
exception of Amaya until the voting is over) clear the staff and
have the users vote. And then have a few people (Selected
randomly) come together and vote on the electies. Once that's
done, the 'staff' will be decided based on: Experiance, ability
to maintain a site AND, though it may seem silly, but, their
ability to contribute to the site's writing aspect. Afterall,
that's what the site is for, correct?
**It is to my understanding that Raijutia has suggested the
clear staff idea already**
My train of thought on the writing contribution being a thing to
look at is this; If we're trying to have a staff guide a
writing community, shouldn't we have staff that are willing to
not only contribute to random role plays, but write with anyone
willing? Mind you, I know it's not always easy to just sit and
write.
Now, for the reasoning on the Moderators; I figure, if you have
two un-marked people as moderators (Though I expect they'll be
listed in the staff, unless it's decided to not list them), sort
of as the ''eyes and ears'' as the higher staff; they can look
for users that may fit the staff well, should the staff as a
whole decide to replace/add another staff member.

Actually Anessa, the reason I became an admin and I still remain
to be one has nothing to do with my closeness with amaya. I was
chosen to be a GM because I have proven that I know when and
where to draw the lines. I do not let people I like go under the
radar much the same as I do not harass people that I do not
like. Do to this I am a good person to be a GM because I remain
un-biased and take thing by each incident rather than letting
one incident influence me about the person for the future. I may
not be doing much on this site anymore, but that is because it
seems as though I am not needed as much. If a time arises that I
find out that I am needed I will be here on a more regular
basis. As per the writing aspect, that I do apologize for I have
been having massive writers block and so I have not been able to
do any writing let alone any role playing. As far as you saying
that I am an asshole when I want to be. I never want to be an
asshole, so I would thank you to not accuse me of such things.
The only time I am rude to another person is when they are doing
something that is crude or breaks the rules. If there is someone
I don't like and I am in a bad mood I will inore them as to not
be an asshole to them. So as I have said already, I would thank
you to not accuse me of such things, especially when you say
that you don't know much about me.
