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...
