An Admin's Experience

[Darxez]

I've got some experience in ''online'' army's etc, as a officer etc (quite big ones).

The stress can piss someone off.  That's one of the reasons I left those army's and went to Argonath, to relax. Still. I'm a to big asshole now to convince somebody/myself to do it again, because I'm scared to make big mistakes.

The vision of Argonath is to have fun, not to be the richest asshole in the game. That's how I get the vision in my sight.

It's stressful yes, but I do it for the sake of the community and helping create a better atmosphere for players to have fun in. I like having the satisfaction knowing that I helped someone who actually appreciates it rather then dealing with rulebreaking moaners all day who have nothing better to do then ruin other peoples day. However, you'll be amazed after a few stressful hours how much a "Thank You" truly means.

You're not the only one, Sometimes admins ruin player's day too, or week.

Advancely you get used to say ''cheers'', or ''thanks'' to a admin. Because they aren't 100% in their mind (sorry) (some, not all -looks to 70% of the team-). It is still the thing that makes the logs funny, and the game itself funnier. For example having a nice dicussion (a normal one), it is just nice to be in that discussion then).

It's one of the special things in Argonath, the Admin team.

Players ruin their own days or weeks. We admins just see to the enforcement of rules on the server.

Your post is just like saying we ruined a hacker's day by banning him for hacks.

Same story as 2 brothers who just had a fight and start crying at daddy:

Brother 1: Dad, he hitted me !
Brother 2: You sayed I was stupid
Brother 1: I DIDN'T SAY THAT
Brother 2: YOU DID

Continue like that for 30.

If you do something (did something myself, had to calm myself, sayed something stupid about our new president ), fucking accept it and improve it. Don't wan't to do it, the door..
