       Positions for Moderators and Admins!  ** READ **
       By: 65Wolf Date: April 8, 2012, 6:48 pm
       ---------------------------------------------------------
       First of all, I would like to say Happy Easter!  I hope everyone
       had a great holiday weekend!!
       I've been thinking about this for some time, just haven't gotten
       around to posting about it yet... so here it is!
       As the servers are starting to grow, and are becoming more
       active, it is time for us to start looking in to promoting a
       couple more Moderators and another Admin or two.
       Now, I know everyone would love to be one or the other... but
       what I would like to hear from you guys, is who do you think
       would make a good (and fair) Moderator or Admin... and explain
       why!  I don't just want a bunch of names in the hat, so to
       speak.  I want to know why you guys think the person you suggest
       would be good.  Some of us Admins/Mods don't always get a chance
       to really get to know everyone, because there is so much going
       on. We try, but its not always possible. So thats where I am
       relying on you guys to help us in this decision.  My goal would
       be to have at least one Moderator and/or one Admin available on
       the servers to assist, as necessary, when people are playing on
       the servers!
       After you have had a chance to make your suggestions, we intend
       to discuss this further amongst the current Admins and Mods.
       Once it is determined who we would like to see be promoted, we
       will talk to the individuals involved to insure they are willing
       to make the commitment. After that time, we will then announce
       who the new Mods/Admins will be, based on our decisions!
       [hr]
       Currently, the Admins are:  65Wolf (myself), Dragoon11024, and
       Ennder1254.  Ennder isnt' really on much as an Admin anymore,
       and when he is on, its just to play as a regular Member on the
       Vanilla Server. Basically, he's my 'goto-guy' if theres an issue
       that needs to be addressed when I'm at work, away from home, and
       need someone to phsyically go in and do something on the servers
       for me!
       Moderators currently include:    Twsb156Anok, LuciferIsGod, and
       GillesRich.
       [hr]
       Moderators responsibilities would include:
       [list]
       [li]Be available to assist Members with issues on the servers
       and forums, as needed.[/li]
       [li]Help keep an eye on the servers and the players![/li]
       [li]Playing and interacting in a fair and appropriate manner at
       all times![/li]
       [li]Abide by and enforce all the server rules![/li]
       [li]Treat members fairly![/li]
       [li]Do NOT abuse your Moderator powers, and do not use them to
       give yourself and unfair advantage in game![/li]
       [li]Monitor the forums regularly for updates and information
       pertaining to the servers, especially the Moderator/Admin
       Forums![/li]
       [li]Make recommendations or suggestions as to how we can improve
       communications with Members.[/li]
       [li]Use the Moderators/Admins Forums to communication with, and
       let them know what you have dealt with, or are dealing with at
       the time![/li]
       [li]Notify 65Wolf, and other Mods/Admins of any and all
       incidents happening on the servers and forums.[/li][/list]
       The Admins would have considerably more responsibilities than
       just a Moderator. Admins would be responsible for all the same
       duties as a Moderator, and more!  Some of the others things that
       an Admin may be responsible for include:
       [list]
       [li]Be available a good part of the time to help keep an eye on
       the servers and players![/li]
       [li]Playing and interacting in a fair and appropriate manner at
       all times![/li]
       [li]Abide by and enforce all the server rules![/li]
       [li]Treat members fairly![/li]
       [li]Doing background checks on applicants.[/li]
       [li]Accepting/Rejecting New Member Applications.[/li]
       [li]Promoting/Demoting members, when necessary.[/li]
       [li]Assisting members with issues, such as griefing, stealing,
       etc.[/li]
       [li]Understanding all of the plugins we use, their commands, and
       knowing how they work![/li]
       [li]Reviewing server logs.[/li]
       [li]Jailing players, if and when necessary, and dealing with
       those players to ensure negative behavior will not
       continue.[/li]
       [li]Rolling back the server, or specific areas, as necessary to
       repair grief damage by other players.[/li]
       [li]Banning players AND their IP's of definite Griefers,
       Hackers, Spammers, etc.[/li]
       [li]Assist players with any and all issues they have on the
       servers.[/li]
       [li]Assist members on the forums as well in on the servers![/li]
       [li]Work with Moderators to find solutions to players'
       issues.[/li]
       [li]Admins will help maintain a positive atmosphere on all
       servers, including the forums and ventrilo.[/li]
       [li]Help keep the forums up to date.[/li]
       [li]Keep other Mods/Admins informed as to incidents you have
       dealt with, or are dealing with.[/li]
       [li]Use the Moderators/Admins Forums to communication with![/li]
       [li]Notify 65Wolf of any and all incidents happening on the
       servers and forums![/li][/list]
       *These lists are not complete. There may be other expectations
       required of the Moderators and Admins. This just gives an idea
       of some of the things we will expect of our Mods/Admins. These
       positions are not to be taken lightly! They are meant to be a
       part of the backbone of our servers, as well as of the WolfCraft
       Gaming community in general.
       I look forward to hearing your suggestions!!
       - 65Wolf

       So you're looking for more Moderators and Admins... Here are my
       thoughts and suggestions.
       I think you definitely need more than one admin on the vanilla
       server. It would take quite a bit of workload off your shoulders
       if you were to share some of those admin duties with other
       players on the server.
       Here are my suggestions for promotions on the vanilla server:
       [list type=decimal]
       [li]twsb156ANOK --> Promotefrom Moderator to Administrator<br/>I
       find he's proven himself to be very reliable and
       trustworthy.<br/><br/> [/li]
       [li]GillesRich --> I would like to submit my candidacy to
       upgrade my role from Moderator to Administrator<br>I would be
       more than happy to help you out with some of the Admin
       duties.[/li]
       [/list]
       This would mean that there would be 2 vacant Moderator spots if
       you were to implement the 2 suggestions above.
       [list type=decimal]
       [li]Prd30 --> Promote from Member to Moderator<br/>Prd30 brings
       maturity and great ideas to the server. He frequents the vanilla
       server often enough for him to play an important role as a
       moderator<br/><br/>[/li]
       [li]Erundur --> Promote from Member to Moderator <br/>I've
       witnessed erundur taking on the moderator role a few times by
       asking players to behave themself in a more favourable manor on
       the vanilla server which tells me that he truly agrees with the
       rules set forth by 65wolf.[/li]
       [/list]

       Not to sound stuck up, but I think fit the qualifications to
       become a mod/admin for the normal server. Firstly, I own and run
       my own town. Secondly, I am very often playing and am very
       active on the servers. Thirdly, I have brought a total of 5+
       people to the servers. Fourtly, I have been very trustworthy
       with  Wolf or whoever else I am talking too. And lastly, I think
       I have the creative skill set to help add to this server and
       make it a more interesting/artfull place.
       Thanks!

       I'll be looking to talk to the other Admins/Mods by this weekend
       for input on candidates and looking to make my final decisions
       soon!  If anybody has any other recommendations for who would
       make good Admins/Mods, please let us know what your thoughts
       are!  THANKS!!
