What is your in-game name and previous names?:
[TCL]Dario_Gvardia - Previous: [TCL]Dario_Mendez, Dario_Martinez, Luigi_Koltsov. (These are my mostly known names)
Full list: wiiboycool, [A51]wiiboycool, Wiiboy_Pavano, Wiiboy_Castello, Luigi_Castello, Luigi_Stracci, Luigi_Cems, Luigi_KoltsovT, Luigi_Koltsov, [AA]LuigiKoltsov, [SE]LuigiKoltsov, [AVt]Luigi_K, =AV=Luigi_K, Luigi_Tanaro, Luigi_Grohl, Lewis_Gvardia, Luigi_Diablos, Dario_Martinez, Dario_Mendez, [TCL]Dario_Mendez, [TCL]Toxic, [TCL]Toxic_Stracci, [TCL]Toxic_Marques

What role are you applying for? (Leader, manager, advisor):
Advisor is the position I think would suit me best, since I can give advice and councelling from my experience in leadership.

Do you meet the criteria of the role?:
Yes, I believe I do:

- I have played Argonath RPG for around 10 months. I have been in a fair ammount of groups and Gangs, and leaded some too. Such as Koltsov, AWR, Diablos. And a member of Pavano, Cems, Castello, Stracci, Gvardia.. I believe I could put all this experience together to give out help to new groups _ and even stable groups, to get the best of their Argonath RPG experience, and most of all, so they can have fun and not worry about any problems they may have.
- I have been kicked and warned a few times, for small reasons from the past, such as flaming and flooding, which I regret deeply, and have stopped doing since a long while. I also had a few tampbans, which tought me my lesson fully, but I have not had any tempbans recently. I believe I have changed my attitude in the last few months, because I realised how important the rules are. I believe I changed my life, which I could encourage other players to do, if I get the privellage of having this position. I was banned ONCE. And this ban made me learn my lesson. I have not done anything bad since this ban.
- I have good patience.
- I always see both sides of the discussion, so understanding.

What do you plan to achieve in this role?:
I have always been keen on helping others. And as a group advisor I would be honoured to give out advice to other groups and etc. As everyone might realise, there are oly a few stable groups in Argonath. I myself have leaded many groups in my time.. Such as The Koltsovi's Mafia, Los Diablos Gang, Argonath World Records...   will list my experience here. When I joined Koltsov quite a few months ago, I was trained in stability, financial aiding, and mostly money making skills. But I did not learn alot of RP. After a few months I became the leader of the Koltsov mafia, and I leaded them right to the top. But still, it is experience. After, I joined Diablos - probably the best group I have ever been in, Here I learned professional roleplay. I also learned how to keep a group stable, how to treat your members and also how to deal with other groups, and also have fun! I later founded a company called Argonath World Records (AWR), I know it's not a criminal group but this made me see what is needed to found a group and make it a stable and respected group. I believe I could help new groups to become stable and fun groups. I think that I could provide feedback on every group, about their stability, roleplay skills, and other things.. Then think of ways to solve any problems the group may have. One of my main aims would be to bring peace out of character between groups. Even if groups have a bad relation, why can't they be friends out of roleplay? Also, I would make sure that every group is treated fairly, no groups getting advantages or priorities. I would also help groups solve any encounters they may have, such as people flaming their groups.. and help them solve it gradually. I possibly would open a building - such as city hall, or A.R.U.N headquarters if there is one, and allow group members or leaders, or just anyone to come and ask for advice and support. I also plan to give information to groups on having more fun, not talking about problems or bad encounters. They made these groups because they want to have fun. So I would give ideas for different roleplay types they could to together to have some fun as a criminal group. I plan to get ideas that groups would want, and look into these ideas individually and provide feedback on it to A.R.U.N. I would keep track of all groups and check that they are treating their members well, being respectful to other groups, and also staying within the server rules. The current groups all have good points, but also bad points. All groups do mistakes sometimes, and I under stand that. But I would be willing to talk with any group if they are getting abuse from any other group. Or simply worrying about anything to do with their group. As I have experience in leading groups, I will be able to give information on leading a group. What to do in different situations, and what attitude to show towards their fellow leaders, other groups, but also their ordinary group members. Another of my plans to increase relationships and friendships between groups is to make events, which any groups can participate in and roleplay something big, together. And have fun, together, as the Argonath criminals! But also, there will be problems with this. With relations, so I do plan to encourage more alliances between groups, and not enemies. I understand maybe wars are fun etc, but I think that groups should have as much roleplay as they have wars and shooting. It would be a pleasure to work will fellow group leaders to make the community groups better and more fun to be in. I would help groups by giving information on leading groups - as I have experience. Another plan of mine, would be to gather a meeting, of groups members, without their leaders. I will ask them questions of how they feel in their group, and if they are having fun in it. If these members would say any problems, I could help resolve these by either giving them advice, or by talking to their group leaders or A.R.U.N staff. I would see being a part of A.R.U.N a big privellage for me, which I would be pleased to work for, and help others in it. I will perform all my required duties as Advisor, what ever it takes. I am willing to co-operate will all other members of A.R.U.N and take both sides, as they say, before making any decision or changes.

- What is your in-game name and previous names?: Ollie_Stracci

- What role are you applying for? (Leader, manager, advisor): Advisor

- Do you meet the criteria of the role?: Indeed.

- What do you plan to achieve in this role?:

As a one of the leader's of Stracci I believe that I am a very influential chracter on the SA:MP Groups front. Not only do my own group members look up to me, I hope other members would too. Throughout my time as a leader of Stracci, 12 months, I have had many talks and compromises with other group leaders in order to solve problems and other issues. The main problem at the moment is that the groups do not trust each other thus not allowing them to co-operate. This creates arguments and other conflicts that lead to the downfall of groups and also the loss of respect.

A main aim of mine would be to bring co-operation between groups and to allow groups to respect each other. This could be done by getting the opinions of all members of groups rather than just the leaders. One would then report back to the leaders what needs to done and finally a compromise could be done. Another problem is that newer groups do not seem to be able to stay around long enough as the bigger server groups absorb most of the members. A way of counteracting this would be for smaller groups to have he support of the bigger groups. For example, large group A is designated to smaller group B who they will advise and support in becoming larger. When they are able to and have become self sufficient, smaller group B can then move on to the advising role.

There are many reasons why I would be suitable for this role as I am an easy guy to talk to and am willing to help others. I listen to problems of others and try to solve issues where possible. I have many ideas which can come into play if I where to get the role of advisor.

My ingame name at the moment is =AV=Zai_Montana, previous names is Zaila, Zaila_Stracci, [AVt]ZaiStracci, [AV]Zai_Stracci, [AV]Zaila, [AV]Zaila_Saitou, =AV=Zaila.

- What role are you applying for? (Leader, manager, advisor):
I am applying for the Manager spot.

- Do you meet the criteria of the role?:

Yes, i do, I have never been banned / tempbanned, only kick i can remember is that i needed to leave the computer as suspect when a emergency occured home, and the only warns i have recieved was by mistake if i remember right.

- What do you plan to achieve in this role?:
I was in Stracci for around 6 months before, was a high ranked member there. From my time there, i saw alot which did destroy the fun for many. From what i have seen and readed about, the biggest factor that is missing between the groups and contributes with all this moaning between the groups is communication. Communication between the groups is a important factor and contributes in 2 big ways. One way is the atmosphere, it contributes to a relaxed atmosphere where everybody feels comfortable, and the second way is that groups can organize stuff between them, which contributes to the fun and no missunderstandings occurs.

I've also got experience in leading groups and other projects outside of Argonath (also studying at school how to lead a project / group) so i know what it takes. I love to help people out, and lead them in right direction if needed or if they are asking for help.

As you might have understand from reading above, my goals if i get accepted as A.R.U.N Manager is to improve the communication between the groups, to make it as close as possible perfect (even if it's not possible to get it perfect), and if it succed, it will contribute in many ways and create a positive atmosphere and to help groups if they are in need of help from a third part, advices or tips on how they can improve their group and take the right decision.

Post by: Hidduh on May 21, 2010, 03:08:07 pm

- What is your in-game name and previous names?:

My current name is =AV=Hidduh. My previous ones: [WS]Hidduh, [WS]Hidduh_C, Hidduh.

- What role are you applying for? (Leader, manager, advisor):

I'd like to apply for leader, if possible. (I've chosen for this role because I know I am experienced in leading projects, community programs and events. That means I have experience on those points, and that's why I think I am a good leader.)

- Do you meet the criteria of the role?:

Yes I do. Why? Since I began my 'Argonath life' i've changed alot. Today i'd like to do something for the community, instead of kicking back and watch the developers script and design all day long to make Argonath an even better and safer place, with an friendly atmosphere, and i'd like to keep it like this. I have never been banned before, once tempbanned due to a admin misunderstanding, the admin who banned me apologized to me when my temp. ban which I didn't deserved was over. I've mailed the Argonath HQ with the question why I was tempbanned and that it was an misunderstanding. Kicks.. I think one.. That was in my first month or so (I am not sure though) and I really can't remember what happened.. I've changed my attitude and I regret for anything i've done regarding rulebreaking in the past. After that, I have never been kicked/warned before. I've joined argonath somewhere in June or July, this means I have been playing here for almost a year.

- What do you plan to achieve in this role?:

I am a friendly and kind person. I am always available if someone needs my help, and I will do my best to help him/her, no matter what.
By leading this project, I will come up with a 'Strategy', which is the following:

- Better communication with groups/players. Communication is the key to success.
- Help. If they have no idea how something works, or if they have questions regarding their members or something totally different, I will be there to answer their questions and do anything to help them find the key to success.
- Organise. An helping hand with organizing, for example; Events, meetings, or something completely different.
- Approach. Approach them with difficult situations and try to help them solve those.
- Leadership. Leadership in this role is very important, and since I have experience in leading projects/events/etc (Also in real-life) this won't be hard for me.
- Initiative. I will take full responsibility of this role and I will discuss ideas, problems or something else with other A.R.U.N or Argonath SA:MP Comminity staff if necessary.

As I said before, I am a friendly, funny but strict person. I will remain serious for the most of the time, but as I said i'd like to joke around sometimes. I am patient and I can remain patient for along time without bothering someone. I can remain calm in stressful situations and I will do anything to solve problems, that's why I think I will be a good leader for this project.

=AV=Hidduh

 Note: Starting from 21/05/2010, I am inactive for about 3 to 5 days. After that, I will be available for about the whole day.

To apply for the above roles, please complete this application form:
- What is your in-game name and previous names?:

Romeo_Ancelotti, Romeo_Corleone, Romeo_Montana, Mango_Ancelotti, Mango_Montana.

- What role are you applying for? (Leader, manager, advisor):

Leader/Manager.

- Do you meet the criteria of the role?:

Yes, I believe I am. Since the beginning of my career in Argonath I have always had a part to play in leadering one group or another. I have been played leading roll in [TAC], Montana, Ancelotti(for two years), and several small groups which I have taken under my wing to help group. I have vast knowledge of the group system in Argonath, how they fail, how they succeed, what it takes to construct and maintain an official group, things to do and things not to do. I have formed good relationships with almost every group leader in argonath and I believe I could use the trust formed to make changes to the system which would benefit everyone as a whole. I'm brimming with ideas on how to improve the system, and even If I am not accepted as one of the following roles I will still play my part in trying to put forward and have accepted my ideas. I do not hold the best of track records, but I believe that one can only learn from testing boundaries and from experience, which I indeed have.

- What do you plan to achieve in this role?:

As Ancelotti's founder and leader for over a year now, I believe that I know a lot about how the criminal group system works. Changes must be made, demands met, and I believe I am suitable to provide these for the groups that require it. I'm passionate about my group and will do what ever it takes to improve the system for my own, and all others that require these changes. I've been fighting for change for a while now(even if my methods do not seem to have been successful) and I will continue to work for an improved system that our groups so very much need.

I am experienced in leadership, decision making, negotiation, organisation, and training.
I have the experience required to make a change to the groups.
I maintain a friendly and fun role-play atmosphere within my group, and I believe if I could release this atmosphere between the groups as a whole, Argonath would no longer be full of group hatred. We need to unite as a role-play community and play the game for the fun, and pull away from this un-needed hate.

I know I am already part of this project as being a Group Advisor, which I very much appreciate, but I believe I could achieve more if I were to be accepted as either of these roles.

Regards,

Romeo Ancelotti.

Leader.

- Do you meet the criteria of the role?:

- What do you plan to achieve in this role?:
Lately there were a lot of conflicts.. Groups fighting for invalid reasons.. group members moaning.. sometimes the virtual war turns out to be a real war between group leaders, and takes part on forum where again a lot of provocation and mis-behavior of the members occure.
So plans might sound too easy, but shall be effective with the help of the fellow ARUN members we would build a tree of suggestions, discuss matters and solve issues. We'll try, attempt and finally bring back groups in Argonath, and this time alive, exciting and prestigious.

I think only grouped people should take these roles, since groupless people have no idea what they're talking about when it comes to groups at all. When I checked this topic and found that random people who aren't even in groups were applying for leader and other roles, I was totally gobsmacked and nearly facedesked my keyboard to pieces.

If groupless people get these roles it will fail quickly.


If I wasn't sick of taking the fall and being blamed for everything I'd apply for the first one, instead I might try my hand at the others in a little while.

Doesn't seem right to run a group council with members who are not experienced with groups.

What is your in-game name and previous names?: Enrique_Perez, David_Alvarez, Luca_Vinucci, =Que=, Flavio_Leone.

What role are you applying for? (Leader, manager, advisor):
Advisor. I do feel that I want to establish something in this role. Which I think I could do with my experience.


I have been a leader in several factions, such as: 58th Street, The Vinucci Crime Syndicate. I have been in Corleone, Leone, GSF, ECPS and other familiar groups. I have also been on the friendly side, so my experience is big, which guides me throughout this world.

Do you meet the criteria of the role?:
Yes, I do. It's all about yourself, if you honestly believe in what you do, there will not be any difficulties through life, not in this role either. Patient and friendliness.

What do you plan to achieve in this role?:
I feel that I got a lot to do, as an advisor. I know there's several ideas floating around, and instead of bringing it into moaning, I'd love to help these fellow people with their creativity instead, and maybe, some of the ideas will do good within the community. I feel that I know a lot of people within Argonath, which makes this job a lot easier. I have been around for about three years, soon. So it's all about creativity and responsibility, which I am full of.

        Panda_Araatus  [RS3/RS4]
        Panda_Solonik  [RS3]
        Panda_Corleone  [RS2]
        [XS]Panda  [RS1]

- What role are you applying for? (Leader, manager, advisor): Manager.

- Do you meet the criteria of the role?: Yes.

- I have played for over 3 years (since approx. May 7th 2007), and have been involved strongly with the ARPD consistently, including my time in the Corleone Mafia, the Solonik Brotherhood, and the Araatus Yakuza. This has meant that I was always able to offer a balanced point of view that I felt reflected the honest condition of both sides.
In the Corleone Mafia I led the San Fierro Division, and in the Solonik Brotherhood I led the Volgograd Division. After my time in these groups, Maxy and I created the Araatus Yakuza and have stuck with it since.

- I have been banned only once, which was due to a heated and emotional discussion in CB radio that was logged.
I think that I have been kicked less than 10 times and warned about as many. I have been tempbanned one time where I felt it was at least slightly fair, the other time I sent an admin report email as per server rules, instead of returning to aggravate the situation.

- I have in my time in Araatus been allied to all sides of the web. With the THOR Alliance (CM side) we led, along with the Corleone Mafia, the Solonik Brotherhood, and the Chechen Bratva, a successful drug cartel to reinflate the price of drugs. With the Magni Pact (LCV side) we cooperated with the Stracci Family to break the business stranglehold on Los Santos left after the decimation of the San Fierro movement that we attempted to lead. We have recently made arrangements to ally with the Gvardia Mob (Fierro side). We have seen all sides of the alliance web, and I personally have overseen (with others) the arrangement of the THOR Alliance, the Magni Pact, and the shortlived Arcana Alliance. I have or have had personal relationships with prominent group leaders including but not limited to: Daniel and Violet Corleone, NitrOx Stracci, Cofiliano Gvardia, Romeo Ancelotti, Ignazio and Sama Solonik, Punkemo Chechen, and many others that I have cannot remember off the top of my head.

- In my role as the SA:MP Group forum moderator I deal with most reports coming from there (along with Traser). I have seen many forms of disputes and feel I act decisively, ignoring "which group flamed which" and simply looking objectively at "was a group flamed". This role has also meant that I was able to speak directly to multiple group leaders in the past to settle disputes over things such as combat disputes, member reports, topic plagiarism, and direct flaming.

- Due to NitrOx's petition I was allowed to draw up and put into effect a trial gangwar system (The Validation System), which worked well until I fell inactive at updating it. The system was clunky and not easy for me (or anyone else) to use.
The new system (The Declaration System) is far more efficient, as I programmed an Application Executable with an UI that means I can edit the data much quicker and also stops errors occuring. The rules for the group war system have evolved over time, including a suggestion from Cofiliano that we have "Validation Leaders" to ensure fair fights. The system means that any group can opt-out (as indeed Araatus is currently doing as per Project Ember) by simply not declaring. The self-policing nature of the system means that the groups can settle disputes among themselves and not needlessly involve server leaders - although I feel ARUN could greatly help this diplomatic process.


- What do you plan to achieve in this role?:

- Criminal groups have, for many years, lacked any official representation. Criminal admins have been recruited in the past leading to great potential ideas being pushed forward to benefit every group (not just criminal). The massive setback that occured to this cause (the mass kick of admins awhile back) can still be recovered from with the ARUN, which I feel may help all groups to solve problems together rather than throw pointless insults back and forth before a server leader steps in to reprimand both groups.
The stereotype that criminal groups are "DMers" or "rulebreakers" must be eliminated if attitudes are to change. People must see how we work and how sophisticated we are when we're not "shooting all cops". The ARUN can do that and I want to help. I feel that my experience on this server as a member of the ARPD and multiple groups, including leading one of the longest running criminal groups, along with my lengthy time as admin, could help ARUN to get in touch with what the groups wish for, and to address the concerns of players outside of groups.
Overall, with the ARUN I would hope that it could achieve a change in attitude about groups, specifically criminal groups, and to teach players that we are not all a bunch of "rulebreakers" at all. With changing attitude of groupless players looking in would come less spite coming out from members. Attitudes from those within criminal groups would improve as less victimised them for things they did not do and applied unfair stereotypes that are simply false. I would also hope that with official status and representation, criminal groups in general could start to achieve some recognition and support, such as effective scripts that could help the groups to better function.

The breaking of the stereotypes applied to criminal groups would benefit everyone.
Recognition and support would make many group members much more satisfied and would encourage new members to join up, meaning that the general unfortunate truth that "New Player = Freecop" could change.
With changing attitudes of players outside groups would come changing attitudes from those within, and with that would come a better playing experience for everyone. With recognition and respect would come new and interesting roleplays from groups, and ever expanding opportunities for all, both in groups and not.
And from there, of course.. the sky is the limit.





Incidentally, I support Romeo's application for Leader.

 - Applicant must have at least six months experience in Argonath.
yes

What role are you applying for? (Leader, manager, advisor):
Advisor is the position I think would suit me best, since I can give advice and councelling from my experience in leadership.

Do you meet the criteria of the role?:
Yes, I believe I do:

- I have played Argonath RPG for around 10 months. I have been in a fair ammount of groups and Gangs, and leaded some too. Such as Koltsov, AWR, Diablos. And a member of Pavano, Cems, Castello, Stracci, Gvardia.. I believe I could put all this experience together to give out help to new groups _ and even stable groups, to get the best of their Argonath RPG experience, and most of all, so they can have fun and not worry about any problems they may have.
- I have been kicked and warned a few times, for small reasons from the past, such as flaming and flooding, which I regret deeply, and have stopped doing since a long while. I also had a few tampbans, which tought me my lesson fully, but I have not had any tempbans recently. I believe I have changed my attitude in the last few months, because I realised how important the rules are. I believe I changed my life, which I could encourage other players to do, if I get the privellage of having this position. Never been banned.
- I have good patience.
- I always see both sides of the discussion, so understanding.

What do you plan to achieve in this role?:
I have always been keen on helping others. And as a group advisor I would be honoured to give out advice to other groups and etc. As everyone might realise, there are oly a few stable groups in Argonath. I myself have leaded many groups in my time.. Such as The Koltsovi's Mafia, Los Diablos Gang, Argonbath World Records... I believe I could help new groups to become stable and fun groups. I think that I could provide feedback on every group, about their stability, roleplay skills, and other things.. Then think of ways to solve any problems the group may have. One of my main aims would be to bring peace OOC between groups. Even if groups have a bad relation, why can't they be friends out of RP? Also, I would make sure that every group is treated fairly, no groups getting advantages or priorities. I would also help groups solve any encounters they may have, such as people flaming their groups.. and help them solve it gradually. I also plan to give information to groups on having more fun, not talking about problems or bad encounters. They made these groups because they want to have fun. So I would give ideas for different roleplay types they could to together to have some fun as a criminal group. I plan to get ideas that groups would want, and look into these ideas individually and provide feedback on it to A.R.U.N. I would keep track of all groups and check that they are treating their members well, being respectful to other groups, and also staying within the server rules. The current groups all have good points, but also bad points. All groups do mistakes sometimes, and I under stand that. But I would be willing to talk with any group if they are getting abuse from any other group. Or simply worrying about anything to do with their group. As I have experience in leading groups, I will be able to give information on leading a group. What to do in different situations, and what attitude to show towards their fellow leaders, other groups, but also their ordinary group members. It would be a pleasure to work will fellow group leaders to make the community groups better and more fun to be in. I would help groups by giving information on leading groups - as I have experience. Another plan of mine, would be to gather a meeting, of groups members, without their leaders. I will ask them questions of how they feel in their group, and if they are having fun in it. If these members would say any problems, I could help resolve these by either giving them advice, or by talking to their group leaders or A.R.U.N staff. I would see being a part of A.R.U.N a big privellage for me, which I would be pleased to work for, and help others in it. I will perform all my required duties as Advisor, what ever it takes. I am willing to co-operate will all other members of A.R.U.N and take both sides, as they say, before making any decision or changes.

To apply for the above roles, please complete this application form:
- What is your in-game name and previous names?: NitrOx_Stracci (Previous names: NitrOx, Joe_Stracci)
- What role are you applying for? (Leader, manager, advisor):
Leader
- Do you meet the criteria of the role?:
Criteria:
I have +- 2.5 years experience in the Argonath RPG community
-Yes, I have been admin punished, however that was all in the past of a timeline of +- 2.5 to 3 years.
- I think patience is the key to success, I am patient, however if someone is going too far I am bound to take a small break. That is when he/she goes way too far.
I think I can communicate very well with most of the people in the community, I have once created a Petition of what the community wanted to accomplish at that time, as I made a big voting system about it, it turned out that it turned out good as for the subject I tried to accomplish.


- What do you plan to achieve in this role?:
My vision is to bring the groups in the community together peacefully so that they can discuss about things in peace, my vision aswell is to create a set of new rules which will better the currence of the groups in SA:MP, I am also striving to achieve a very successful validation system and that everyone will obide by the rules of it. I think it is crucial that the groups that are to be chosen for the Official Status should have a good reputation as in roleplay wise AND rules-wise, e.g. groups that are official and get warned, should lose the official status, however if another non-official group wants to become official but is warned already, it should not be able to become official till the warnings reaches 0. (Expire). I also think the official status should be very limited to the groups of Argonath RPG, since if EVERYONE will get the official status, it will NOT be very strivingely to improve, people should keep improving they are groups if they want to get official status, so this is the structure I am trying to accomplish: A few official groups slots for starters, e.g. 5 If Group A, B, C, D, E want to become official, they should meet all of the criteria of becoming an official group, if all these groups become official, and an non-official group attempts to become official, however everyone is obeying the rules, I think also the activity of the group should count; When a official group turns in-active the Lose-Official-Status should start, so that others will get a chance as well.



A few things a group should do, as from my vision:
-Groups (Criminals) should NOT create events such as, as stated in Rocks reply:  DDs, Nascar Racing, Racing Events, Stunting -IF a (criminal group) is official, it should focus on roleplay and increasing several subjects of the criminals, such as;
- The Drug Market, creating criminal cartels among them.
- Opening their businesses instead of doing events, however people can see it as events, e.g. people opening their casino, club, bar, restaurant etcetera etcetera.
- Ensuring that groups do NOT fight over WARS, when group A and group B have a war, they should remain friendly to each other through PMs e.g., however they can be unfriendly over in-game roleplaying, but they should not take it personally, if that happens (example: group A flaming at group B forum) validations should be dropped and their relations should be re-checked, as for the people flaming, the group should focus on getting proper mature people in its faction.
- Creating a weaponary market through RP, ensuring groups become more secretive instead of pewpew bam bam shootouts in public, I want to ensure that if the Police Department is on you behind you, you are screwed, the Police should improve into re-organizing aswell (Not under my revision however.)
Conclusion:
I want to accomplish that criminal groups become the new view of players on the server, I want the groups to increase in professionality, roleplay and communication.
-Kind Regards,
NitrOx Stracci.

Application: Ryan Caltson



What is your in-game name and previous names?:

My current name is [ALS]RyanC, my previous names were [WS]Ryan and [ALS]Ryan.



What role are you applying for? (Leader, manager, advisor):

I am applying for the Manager role.



Do you meet the criteria of the role?:

I do meet all criteria, My experience on Argonath started on 8th March 2008, meaning that i'm here for over 2 years and 3 months now. During this time there were never bans neither kicks issued to me. Yet i've been warned for 'ramming' during the Summer of 2008. Also my behaviour and attitude on the server is very well. I can assure you that on this server, no-one ever was insulted by me due to aggressive behaviour.
My patience is very good as in my opinion that the best things can be achieved with it. Listening to problems of others and trying to solve them with everyone happy is something i always try to get, As mostly these problems were caused by both parties and the conflict is mostly based on a big misunderstanding.

Only if you are patient and comitted enough to your function, group or management, you can achieve the things you'd like to.



What do you plan to achieve in this role?:

I'd like to support the current amount of groups in Argonath. Also new groups have most likely a hard time to startup, and getting settled is in my opinion one of the hardest things to do on Argonath. If these new group leaders could find support and get a helping hand, i would be most likely willing to help them with it. My own experience in Leading (ALS C.E.O. for over 1 year) can only help those people.
Solving problems with several groups should be solved as soon as this can be solved, as problems are not fun for anyone and a person such as a this role could help to settle the problems between both factions.
If there should be any need of advise for hosting any event, i'd be more then willing to help, as also in this section i'm very experienced; Host of the Official Destruction Derby since November 2008.
Shortly, My intention in this role is to ensure that any problem, how big or small they may be, should be solved first. Next to that it's a priority to assist new groups by giving them the support and advise they need, since managing a group might be more complicated then others.
These groups, members, new, official, unofficial, bad or good reputation should all be able to count on someone that will be there when they need advise.



Sincerely yours,

Ryan Caltson.

Do you meet the criteria of the role?:
Yes, I'm patient, never banned, and played more than 6 months (/whenmade may not show real status due got my first account deleted on purpose)

What do you plan to achieve in this role?:
Those days, best thing I can do is helping people or groups I think. I like Argonath and the community and want better relationships between groups.
I can check groups like if they fit Argonath Rules and don't break them, or have good leadership and status.
I also think making/joining events are fun and I don't want them ruined/rulebreaking and want them fun for other people.

I think my main task mostly will be;
Make the friendly area between groups,
Try to help if there are any problems/questions,
Organise events that will make the friendly area between groups and people,
And find groups which meet the conditions and are worth being invited into A.R.U.N.

- Do you meet the criteria of the role?:
- Applicant must have at least six months experience in Argonath:
Yes, I have been on Argonath for a year.

- Good track record (amount of times warned, kicked, tempbanned and banned):
I've been banned twice for hacking, but logs cleared me both times.

- Patience and understanding:
My patience and understanding is high. Anyone who knows me, knows that about me. A manager has to talk with a lot of different people with different backgrounds and remain objective.

- Drive and commitment:
This is an important project and that's why I'd be very committed to make it a success. I'd raise my activity on Argonath in order to do so. In the past, I've did my best to help new groups grow, not only in members, but also in ways that would benefit RP in Argonath. I've tried to extend the community by CMB, LSDS and my activity in the 'Ideas' section. Providing Argonath a service with this particular role, through observing, listening, guiding, basically helping all the groups, is something I'm very interested in and capable of.

- What do you plan to achieve in this role?:
Argonath would achieve a higher efficiency and effectiveness in new scripts and ideas with this project. Among groups there would be a better attitude and work on things that not only benefits themselves, but everybody in Argonath. Groups would finally have a 'middleman' and buffer for their ideas and problems. I know that I can make these things happen in a team with committed people like me.

To ARUN, it's members and stakeholders.

I am concerned about the management of ARUN, it's self-sustainability and it's method of "staying alive" within the fierce-community as it's a very important factor of Argonath RPG. Therefore, I step forward to show you some ideas of possible management strategies to keep ARUN running in a self-sustainable way.

Agile Developement:
Typically used in software developement, although I do tend to believe that its' principals can be inplemented into the management stragety of ARUN.



Arun Advisors: One position for a member enrolled in 'that' specific group and one position for a third party.

From personal experience, this is an interesting method of managing people. I'm just throwing this out there as I believe the sustainability of Arun is a very important factor. Agree / dissagree? Post your thoughts.

- What is your in-game name and previous names?: [i9]Earl_Montgomery, iMunna, [LB]Earl_Montgomery, [ALS]iMunna, [LL]Johnny_Baker, [AP]iMunna, [i9]Dwayne_Munna

- What role are you applying for? (Leader, manager, adviser): ARUN Leader

- Do you meet the criteria of the role?: No, I have only played here for three months but was invited by Frank to apply. In my past, I have learned many leadership skills in Inferno 9, had my own clan called the Advanced Placement clan, and I managed my own project called the Evaluation of regulars and veterans in order to make a sophisticated community. (http://www.argonathrpg.eu/forum/index.php?topic=54439.0)

- What do you plan to achieve in this role?: Unlike the majority of the applications here, I cannot promise that I will be a success. I cannot promise that this project will be a success. But what I can promise is, I will do the best damn job I can based off of my capabilities and restrictions. If I fail, I will work harder. If this project fails, I will work harder. If a group fails, I will work harder. If one of my managers or advisers fails, I will work harder. Like many times in the past, even if a positive decision ruins my reputation among my peers, I will still work towards it for the benefit of the community. While others claim to offer help to groups and players, I have applied an argument that I will work my ass off. I didn't quit when I saw an easy way out of my player evaluations. I didn't quit Argonath when I was being flamed for my decision to work towards the benefit of the community. I'm not going to quit when I see an easy way out of the ARUN. If I get accepted into ARUN as a leader, Argonath will not be disappointed.

As an ARUN leader, I plan to listen to my stakeholders ideas and comments about other groups and our projects performance. With that information, I will directly contact the SA:MP leadership team and provide the intel. As a leader of ARUN, I will work with other ARUN members in order to come up with rules that are sturdy and strong that cannot be directed towards abuse. I will respectfully consult managers of groups and gangs and provide the SA:MP leadership team with opinions on who should become an official group. I will take responsibility for the ARUN forum board. I will manage ARUN meetings in game and out game. I will dedicate my first priority to ARUN in game and always stay updated with information and details that fellow ARUN members will provide. I will not take days off without consulting the SA:MP leadership team and fellow ARUN members. If I ever have any questions, I will not procrastinate but will ask the questions right away. I will promise to keep a good reputation inside ARUN relations and outside ARUN relations. If I do fail at a task and am asked to resign, I will do so right away.

Recommending Panda & Romeo as leaders/managers. They're the most active and experienced players within the server and with the cops & criminals concpet... I think they will perfectly fit.

Along with Que as advisor, a wise and friendly player indeed.

To apply for the above roles, please complete this application form:
- What is your in-game name and previous names?: NitrOx_Stracci (Previous names: NitrOx, Joe_Stracci)
- What role are you applying for? (Leader, manager, advisor):
Leader
- Do you meet the criteria of the role?:
Criteria:
I have +- 2.5 years experience in the Argonath RPG community
Yes, I have been admin punished, however that was all in the past of a timeline of +- 2.5 - 3 years.
- I think patience is the key to success, I am patient, however if someone is going too far I'm bound to take a small break, but only if that one goes way too far.
I think I can communicate very well with most of the people in the community, I've once created a Petition of
what the community wanted to accomplish at that time, as I made a big voting system about it, it turned out very well as for the subject I tried to accomplish.

-What do you plan to achieve in this role?:
My vision is to bring the groups in the community together peacefully so that they can discuss about things in peace, my vision aswell is to create a set of new rules which will improve the situation of the groups in SA:MP,
I'm also striving to achieve a very successfull validation system and that everyone will act to the rules of it.
I think it's crucial that the groups that are chosen for the "Official Status" should have a good reputation as in roleplay wise AND rules-wise, e.g. groups that are official and get wanred, should lose the offical status, however if another non-official group wants to become official but is warned already, it should not be able to become official till the warnings reaches 0. (Expire). I also think the official status should be very limited to the groups of Argonath RPG, since if EVERYONE will get the official status, it will NOT very very "strvingely" to improve, people should keep improving they're groups if they want to get official status, so this is the structure I'm trying to accomplish: A few official groups slots for starters, e.g. 5 - If Group A, B, C, D, E want to become official they should meet all of the criteria of becoming an official groups, if all these groups become official and a non-official groups attempts to become official, however every official group is following the rules, I think the activity of the official group should count aswell; When a official group turns in-active the "Lose-Official-Status"  should start, so that others will get a chance aswell.

A few things a group should do, as from my vision:
-Groups (Criminals) should NOT create events such as, as stated in Rocks' reply: DDs, Nascar Racing, Racing Events, Stunting - IF a (criminal group) is official, it should focus on roleplay and increasing several subjects of the criminals such as;
-The drugs market, creating criminal cartels among them.
-Opening they're businesses instead of doing events, however people can see it as events, e.g. people opening they're casino, club, bar, restaurant etc etc.
-Ensuring that groups do NOT fight OOCly over WARS, when group A and group B have a war, they should remain friendly to each other through PMs e.g., however they can be unfriendly over in-game roleplaying, but they should not take it personally, if that happens (Example: group A flaming at group B's forum) validations should be dropped and they're relations should be re-checked, as for the people flaming, the group should focus on getting proper mature people in it's faction.
-Creating a weaponary market through RP, ensuring groups become more secretive instead of pewpew bam bam shootouts in public, I want to ensure that if the Police Department is on you, you are screwed, the Police should improve in re-organizing aswell (Not under me).

Conclusion:
I want to accomplish that criminal groups become the new good view of players on the server, I want the groups to increase in professionalism, roleplay and communication.

- Do you meet the criteria of the role?:
I believe i have. Although i have been banned a couple times, both times for stupid things. I have learned from those mistakes. I take my work seriously and i'm patient with people. I am part of a lot of leadership roles in the Argonath Community and in Real Life. I have been in this community almost one year now and i enjoy working and playing woth the other community members, both old and new.

- What do you plan to achieve in this role?:
Main goal is to make sure that groups have fun. We are all here to have fun and i want to make sure that groups can easily and efficiently become part of this great community. I know from experience that its hard to start and manage a group, and that it takes time and commitment to create one. I'm an idea person so im always willing to contribute my thoughts and opinions and helping other people work and control their groups is something that i will take seriously, but still keep fun and enjoyable for all community members. In my mind there is no such thing as failure, as long as you pick yourself up and keep on going. This motivation is something that alot of group leaders need because hey, lets face it, running a group is hard work and at times it seems like your gong no where. Lets get this show on the road!

- What is your in-game name and previous names?:
Maxy Araatus
Maxy Solonik
Maxy Corleone
[FM]Ma$t3r


- What role are you applying for? (Leader, manager, advisor):


Leader

- Do you meet the criteria of the role?:

   - I have 3 years of Argonath experience.
   - I have been banned twice.
   - I have patience, and I can relate to any situation.
   - Araatus' communication is excellent, and my control in my previous endeavours has been undisputed.
   - Drive and commitment are two values I live my life by.

I started playing on this server in May of 2007. Since then, I have grown a lot as a person, as well as a leader. I have come to realize the necessities of other players, and how to properly tend to them. I have been a leader to many big criminal groups on the server. In Solonik, I was the underboss for a very long time, and as we expanded, I began to fully understand the responsibilites that come with the job. At the end of the day, my pleasure is in making sure everyone is happy. I gladly take upon me these responsibilities, because I have been striving for the last 3 years to learn and build on the groups side of things. In my 3 years, I have always been in some form of group. Not once was I ever tagless, and not once was I not roleplaying in the criminal underworld. I have looked at some of the other candidates, and simply shivered at the thought of having them as a leader. Why? Because as a leader of the ARUN, you need to actually know the purpose of groups. You also need to know what they need, and you simply cannot do this, if you aren't in one. I think I am the best person for the job, because I know exactly what needs to be done, and how it needs to be done. I can handle many adverse situations and deal with them in a fair and unbiased manner. I was also at one point a level 3 admin, and during my time as an admin I learned how to administrate. Some people may not like me, but the reason for that is, that I hold a mirror up to each and every person, and make them see the current state of affairs for what they really are. I am a realist, and I argue only the truth. I have the ability to command respect, not through force, but because others will agree with the plans we draw up together. I have an inner calling, a fire within me that tells me that this is the exact position that I have been waiting 3 years to finally be in. I will not disappoint.

- What do you plan to achieve in this role?:

I plan to achieve the betterment and equality of all criminal and citizen groups to all non citizen and non criminal groups. As a leader, I would be there to create balance, as well as implement new plans. Also, I already do research and spend most of my time in the gangs and groups section studying new groups, and observing them. If there is potential, I will reach out to them and make sure they secure their seat among the ARUN. I want us to move forward, I don't want us to stand still, let alone move backward. I see this as the biggest opportunity for SAMP Group improvement that has been presented since Argonath's existance, and it is a huge and very important step for us as a community. I stand ready to help in this change, from my seat as a group leader.

Some of the things I want to achieve include:

- Script support for groups.
- Clear and defined group rules.
- Developement of criminal drug markets and weapon markets.
- Furthering creativity among groups.
- Resolving conflicts between police and criminals.
- Setting clearly defined standards for potential official groups.
- Ending the blurred lines between DM and Roleplay.

I have many other tasks and goals I wish to be achieved, but these are the main ones. There are currently many problems with the group systems, of that there is no doubt.

 I want to resolve them.

I am not into the group thingies and the only thing I am well known in is =AV=.

And it's not a clan what does have anything to do with Ancelotti for example.
I would rather aim my qualities on others visions of this community and would apply for that if other things are coming out.

A.R.U.N - Opportunities

All, we are looking for 4 community members to volunteer for the ARUN project.

The ARUN project in short is another attempt to recreate a body where official groups can be brought to life in exchange for them following set rules which can portray them as benchmark / role models to other members of the community. We are pleased to offer the following influential roles within the ARUN project and extended community:

ARUN Leader (one role available)

In time, we will be handing rights out to those successful so you can see the ARUN board and contribute there.

Wow, an i9 guy at the top. I totally didn't see that coming at all man. Man I am so surprised at that that I will almost be surprised but not really at all in any way.

Damn, I'm happy I got into uni because this was the absolute last chance for stuff to actually start working properly, and frankly it hasn't been handled correctly. No offence to Munna, but I think many will agree that you would not have been leader without Frank being involved, which seems wrong to me.

Nonetheless, good luck to the two actual group people at advisor level.

This was supposed to be the criminal ARPD.. damn.

Title: Re: A.R.U.N - Please welcome the new team
Post by: Frank_Hawk on August 20, 2010, 11:18:02 pm
The hierarchy of A.R.U.N has an unconventional structure which will be covered in detail in the near future.

Romeo and Cofi as ARUN advisors will be in a position to collate and highlight key issues that they feel need to be addressed and also to ensure these issues are logged, tracked and resolved. It is their responsibility to gain 'buy in' from other members in anticipation of moving an idea forward towards implementation. In turn, the advisors hold a key driving force for continous improvement measures.

Earl was elected due to the strong credits he has ascertained during his short stay with Argonath over the course of the last couple of months. He has continuously demonstrated community spirit, drive, commitment and focus towards applying himself to given situations in a mature and reasonable way. This is both evident through the amount of punishments given in game and through his conduct on the forum which I encourage all to look at.

As with Earl, in the future - ARUN leaders will participate in 6 month voting draw which will decide whether the leader continues or whether he is to be replaced. This will ensure fairness among the ARUN board of members and provide all with the opportunity of applying once the project is fully operational.

I think what everyone is complaining about, not like 'oh an i9 member at leader? l0l00l0ll i seen dat coming' but more like 'Well Frank probably knows so much about Earl but not anyone else as he would always be with / around Frank as he is in the same group' people who do not usually come to GS9 or have any close relations with i9 were less likely to be chosen, BECAUSE Frank would not get to know them as well.

It is very possible there is another bright star in Argonath who could lead A.R.U.N, or be in ANY of the other positions, but maybe they would not want to or just were not discovered.

There is no argument to it now anyway so people don't need to waste time posting about it. Once again, Congrats to all accepted.

Is it RP or just for people to grow powerful and go "we're official" to other groups, you must listen to us or we will close your group. Or is it going to be between cops and criminals? Is this group going to even be successful?

I could be asking:
What is the problem, and how is this the solution?

Did Frank step down from his tasks in the A.R.U.N when he did step down as Community leader?

Frank Hawk is still a loyal and respected mentor within A.R.U.N. Regarding Dave, he has not been given any authority beyond A.R.U.N Consultant, which can be considered an A.R.U.N Advisor. His attempt at announcing that "the current ARUN staff and concepts are under review by myself" can be regarded as a misunderstanding.

For those interested in understanding the role of the consultant may read this:
The role of the consultant in the ARUN project is to look at the project at a bird's eye point of view and provide input into what can be improved. This encompasses providing feedback to community leadership and also to handle complaints in relations to the ARUN project. It can and may extend to facilitating communication also. Usually, a consultant is experienced in ARUN development which therefore =AV=Dave has been a natural choice in this area of importance.

The consultant role Dave is fulfilling does not sit in the management of ARUN - he is a separate entity who is not obligated to report to the ARUN leader. As a result, he has no rights to exercise within ARUN.  Consider the consultant a shadow of the ARUN project and to some point an advisor with experience. For formal guidance and hierarchy questions - the position of consultant will be in the same category as ARUN advisor reflecting the level of input required and expected.

In time, we will introduce another consultant dependent on experience and demand.

Below is a newly updated list of A.R.U.N members. As you can see, a new "foreshadowing" leader has been appointed. I hope this will settle some of the issues regarding myself.



A.R.U.N
Argonath RPG United Nations



A.R.U.N Leader:
[i9]Earl_Montgomery / iMunna (http://www.argonathrpg.eu/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=9174)

Building on Earl's comments above, I've been asked to stay in ARUN for the meantime and fine tune any details in the near future.

As a result of group voting and acceptance - cDa will be operating as leader at 'arms length' and providing guidance where relevant.

We are continuing to calibrate the project which we foresee ready to release to the community within 3 weeks.

In respect to Dave, should he feel that ARUN would benefit from his experience - the position of consultant is still open.

It's better we are paydayless, people earning 40k a day by staying afk, today's highest payday - $66!!!

Unbeliavable, I saw a reduction in moneyhungry people discussions. Even tho, there were exceptions... Meepy and Mike, congrats! I love your style begging for money, "DONATEH MEH $100 IF U PLAI XBOX AND IF U CARE CANCER KIDDZ".

Also I still wonder why Guillaume got unbanned after hacks :roll:

Frank Hawk is still a loyal and respected mentor within A.R.U.N. Regarding Dave, he has not been given any authority beyond A.R.U.N Consultant, which can be considered an A.R.U.N Advisor. His attempt at announcing that "the current ARUN staff and concepts are under review by myself" can be regarded as a misunderstanding.

For those interested in understanding the role of the consultant may read this:
Below is a newly updated list of A.R.U.N members. As you can see, a new "foreshadowing" leader has been appointed. I hope this will settle some of the issues regarding myself.

This f**king guy?


Seriously?

HE HASN'T EVEN BEEN HERE FOR A YEAR.

Jesus christ Argonath. I mean what the actual flying f**k is this shit? What is i9, the f**king CIA or something? I swear they must pay off the server owners or suck up to a lot of high up people for shit like this to constantly happen.

I don't see the fuss about it. Earl is maybe not 3 years experience on Argonath like some, but he's definitely a   better solution  and a wise choice, if you know him, then other candidates that applied for the position in my opinion. That's why he got my vote, and that's why he got my support.

I understand why you guys feel pissed but trust me on this, its the best solution possible for many reasons, anyone interested for details can ask me on MSN.

Also a note, that Imunna was voted without the support of i9, that is, none of i9 voted for him, or was pushed by them during voting.

Now give a guy a break and a chance to prove himself, ARUN members can already see improvements on ARUN section of the forums, so I urge all of you to cut the bullshit for the moment, and just be patient a bit.

ARUN is currently still in a setup phase. That means the people who are leading now are chosen not because of representing a future official group or position, but in their willingness to develop the concept in to a workable solution.
Dave has done an incredible job in preparing and setting up the first outline, but he sometimes lacks in diplomacy, which was the main reason not to give him the absolute lead. I have no doubt that Dave will continue to play an important role in the clan section as he has vast experience there.
Earl has been chosen due to his prior work where he showed the ability to go forward even when being opposed, and deliver unbiased and objective results.

ARUN Hierachy :
   - Argonath leadership team (reporting to community)
         - ARUN Leader - [i9]Earl_Montgomery
               - Reporting to Argonath leadership team and community
                     - ARUN Manager -  =AV=Traser

All I've gathered so far is that he's been here for over 3 years, doesn't mean he'd be any good at anything.

I became Director of CMB, even though being probably younger then some of the CMB currently there, although they are awesome, does it matter about age?

Post by: Aragorn on September 23, 2010, 09:54:29 pm
To settle the things this topic needs, even if it is closed I have to post some answers on questions which were either ignored or happily forgotten in this topic... All this smelly cataclysm which I was reading on 13 pages is the reason I payed attention...
But from the start...

1. History of ARUN...


ARUN was started by me and Gandalf... Time was passing, we both could not manage to activate the project and build it to the logical final... We set Dave as a manager of the project... And he tried his best... But sorry to say, my inactivity did not help it at all... And it happened that the main things could provide only Aragorn...

So talks like "Dave is not in charge" are incorrect a priori... Together with the claims that Dave did nothing... The one who is guilty here is me...

2. What were the targets of ARUN?

It was supposed to solve the problems some clans and groups had... First of all - unclear mafias/clans (in further - groups) laws lead to the conflicts between members and groups... It was abused as by one side so by other... Bothering owners with the demands and scandals...
Secondly - the building of the Institute of groups on Argonath RPG... What that means? Settling the final structure of the groups wars, business activity, cooperation (contacts) with the enemy-groups (ex. ARPD vs criminal groups) setting the new ideas, etc... As there were a lot of scandals as between groups so between members of different groups we decided to give a possibility to the groups to handle it on a neutral territory... With the involving the developers as a visors and in case of unhanded cases...

3. What was the supposed status of ARUN?

ARUN was supposed to be a non-roleplay project, based only on the relationship outside/inside the groups... For example, the money contributing system of some groups lead to the conflicts between leaving members and groups they leave... Server Courts would not take such cases to the consideration (non-roleplay issue), admins have their own "zone" of actions... With that we decided that the best way - groups will handle themselves...

ARUN does not need ingame objects, scripts, hierarchy...

4. What was the supposed structure of this team?

Manager, which runs the project from developers side and group leaders from players side... This could provide the organized point and shows the equal treating to all groups leaders, involved into project...

Which groups leaders?

Of cos we treat all equal, but for running such project we need a stable groups with the support of Argonath RPG vision and policy... To prevent the creating the one-day groups just for getting into ARUN boards and notr messing around with the boards access plus moving removing ARUN members, the owners gave the official status to groups... Official groups - groups, who are supporting us for a long time, agree with the policy on our servers, helping and supporting the development team...

It prevents the one-day registrations and guaranties the easy way cooperation...

Now about this topic...
From outside (being inactive for a long time) view I saw an attempt to provide the privileges to some roleplay group from all others...

First of all - applied groups leaders together with some lonely wolfs roleplayers... Who never were in clans or mafias, have lack of knowledges about serving or organizing it, did not manage the simple levels even, the same time they were offered to apply as well... That is ridiculous...

Among this flood of applications the choice was incredible... 3 members of I9, whos leader was the author of topic... Besides it, provided the trust to Ancelotti and Gvardia groups only... All others were happily forgotten as I understand...

5. So whats now, Aragorn?

Now the ARUN is going back to its original idea... It will take some time to set the things correct...

--------------------

I apologize to those who applied or were confused with acknowledges... Applications are not valid nowadays... And the project is different from what you might thought...

Thank you...
