Cheating for ethical purposes when no administration online

[Mikal]

The only issue I see right now with the server is that Mikal isn't mapper

To my knowledge Mikal hasn't even applied. Can't be a mapper without an application.

Who knew there were applications? And what is the point? I mean do you really need a forum rank to make maps?

It's more than a forum rank, but yes, there are application.

I agree, the issue isnt widespread, nor is it a major issue.

Automated kicking, I agree with Teddy, just NO. We have that in place for the simple things like flooding (Sauron).

Also, I agree that if there were "trusted players granted the rights to kick" they would be a moderator. Kind of the point of the entry level into Administration.

I'd still like that quote.

Also, while we're on topic, would a high ping (700ms+) exclude me from attempting to rejoin administration if/when the next moderator wave happens?

[Manoni]

It shouldn't be, although I don't know why you have that ping, not even my mexican internet has that shitty connection.

A new wave of moderators was made less than a month ago, the next one wont be happening anytime soon.

All is that due to change in time zones. In our time zone in the morning I barely find an administration online because it's the time of sleep according to their time zone. What my point is that HQ should appoint more moderators which fits in all the time zones. HQ should have a board in 'admin section' where all admins post their time zones and then it'd be more than easy to verify moderators presence in all the time zones for HQ.

I do agree with the current moderator wave which gets fit to catch the cheaters but still there is something left which should be look forward to.

Edit:

Let the HQ decide that.

Create a Vote-Kick system that only operates at the time zones needed or is triggered when no moderator+ is online.

You'd better say you couldn't understand that.

Re-english it please. I do understand what you meant but some others won't. It seems there aren't any players that can fulfill requirements in needed time-zones

[beLTa]

Re-english it please.

No!

[Andeey]

im here almost always, and i've never received a forum PM about hackers or disruptive behaviour ingame whilst there are no admins.. So stop complaining that there isnt any administration online in your timezones, you have to ask for help to get it. plus there is almost always an administration member ingame.

It's not as simple as finding someone with a timezone that is required and giving them a staff position; the person needs to be trustworthy and have the ability to learn which is what we dealt with in the last moderator wave by hiring people from various timezones.

Let the HQ decide that.

Manoni wasn't making any decisions for HQ so I fail to see why you even posted that.
On average we only open up moderator applications once a year after we have removed people from the current staff team that are no longer active.

[MrTony]

It's not that big of a deal anyways.

Can be easily abused.

This is why we can't have nice things.
