I don't mean to sound negative, but this is just not a good idea in my opinion. Regular is a rank given to just that, regular members, VIP and Admin are very respected and trusted ranks. Besides I don't see why we need to change the ranks, just apply for VIP if you want those privileges, if you can't earn it yet, then you are obviously not ready in the eyes of others. I personally think someone would only suggest this because they'd rather have more power at a lower rank, then have to work to get a higher rank. :\ I can just see it getting greatly misused.Well I do agree and disagree, pyrosheep does bring a good point with all of these YouTubers playing it, I would suggest keeping the power of Regs and adding like a second tier Reg, Of course, VIP and this "second tier Reg" would be a lot harder to get; however it would prevent more VIP's coming and ripping their hair out by the stupidity of the RDMers and their excuses, either that or get more VIPs.

How about we ban everyone. That should solve every problem.

I feel like the server rankings need a bit more power now that all TTT servers are becoming more and more popular, so I want to suggest an idea that was implemented on a server I played on awhile ago.
So basically to apply for regular you had to have atleast 12 hours logged on the server and have positive feedback. You had to be extremely well trusted within the community. Regulars could start votes. The could vote kick and vote mute and everyone in the server could vote (everyone in the server to vote on it can be up for discussion). Obviously this also means a bit more strictness with promoting and demoting users.
VIPs can just auto kick or auto mute without any votes or anything. I don't remember the exact standards on MY server we had for applying for it, but it was more strict than regular. Regular would basically just be a back up plan for no VIPs being online.
This ranking system worked very well on the server and it thrived or a very long time but got shut down due to lack of funds. The ranking system was kept the same for the entire time I was playing.
everyone is too afraid to help someone who is incapable of being VIP get promoted
People are afraid of promoting someone who would abuse, if this makes any difference.
um...
Just make the VIP easier to obtain. Seriously, to me it seems that everyone is too afraid to help someone who is incapable of being VIP get promoted, and I myself have had this attitude until now. Seriously, looking at the current requirements to get VIP and at the activity of ALL the VIPS and ADMINS in general I don't think that there are a much or any people who have the chances of getting VIP so people we have a problem. In fact, I think that the people who got the VIP could easily make good admins.
Okay, let's say that Ϝuzsioᴎ makes an app. I can already imagine people either -1ing it or being not sure, but why? Why is this rank being looked at so damn strictly? It is completely unneeded, plus reporting a VIP isn't as hard as reporting ghosting or maybe even rdms in some cases and considering the current situation it is very unlikely it would do any harm.
Also, to everyone, do not forget that VIPS CAN POST VIP APPLICATIONS, so fell free to send one anytime.
I'd also like to encourage some players to apply for the VIP, I'll list their names:

Travelsonic
Lavanchie
Kahuna
TehHank
Captain Communism
Dark Pacifist
Zevante

These are the players who are capable and have the potential for this rank from my perspective, I may have forgotten some as well.
>dat feel when not on da listMaybe its you who is the one who doesn't play enough
;_;
Not sure who a few of those guys are (maybe they just don't play TTT all that much). But Kahuna doesn't want VIP sadly. Or is too lazy to sign up for it. Or both. I know this because I always bug him about it lol.
Maybe its you who is the one who doesn't play enough
Well excuse me for not being on the top ten.
As if playtime actually mattered
if anything is going to happen maybe add a new rank between REG and VIP
But I really don't want to see all the 100's of REGs getting more power that just gives me flash backs to the respectard days...
I'm just adding this in for people who say "VIP's and Admins aren't on enough" just because a VIP does not always play in the server everyday, there is almost always at least a VIP that is online that can be of assistance, like me for example: I am on just about all day every day, and yet no one ever messages me about anything, it's just gotten to the point where I don't really bother to check my messages in case someone does need help, because I know no one will be asking for my assistance. The case that VIPs and Admins are not always available is completely invalid, and all it shows is that this is just suggestion in which a person of lower rank see's an easier way to achieve larger amounts of power while in game.I don't like messaging people for help because I feel like I'm bothering them, might just be me.
To add a greater amount of responsibility to a lower rank would not only lower the value of having a higher rank, but increase the chances of abuse, with the amount of regulars there are. I suppose if others are willing to give it a go though, be my guest.
I don't like messaging people for help because I feel like I'm bothering them, might just be me.
But adding the value to a lower rank also means adding value to the next highest rank aswell. I think that if we increase the value of reg we also need to be more strict about promotion and demotion.
What Marie said.
I have countless times asked people to call me in if anything is going wrong, but only about 3-5 people ever do.
But seriously I am almos ALWAYS around my computer (note the almost) so call me in, also I'm almost always in TTT... So yeah.
You're not bothering them, and if you are, they shouldn't be VIP. The job isn't just for the tag, or so you can votekick anyone who is ruining your fun, it has responsibilities as well.
Let's not jack up the ranking system. Maybe make VIP a bit easier to acquire, but otherwise it's just fine. As stated earlier, bolstering reg power will make VIPs less important, same with admins.

I wouldn't mind VIP but I'm not sure if I'll commit enough time on gmod. Also what discouraged me from applying was that I saw a long list of VIP's that are current. That is not the case as of now so I might.The more known VIPs we have, the better.
I personally like the idea that Death had. Give regulars the power to votekick and see how it goes for about a week.
Just saying the reason why i have not been bombarding Admins with my VIP applications is that seeing how only the cream of the crop become VIP's and that (due to my somewhat low esteem) i usually think i don't stand a chance if i did i post a VIp application.
On topic: Reg's should get votekick for a short test time.

The power this rank has is completely out matched by how hard it is to get it.
Seriously, why don't we just do this?I'm not against to try this and I don't think that if we would promote bunch of new VIPs it would cause harm.
It's the least catastrophic suggestion here, and it's the one most easily undone.
If we create a new rank, or promote a bunch of new VIP's, and we decide it was a bad idea, it'd be a lot harder to undo.
>me as VIP

I love how honest you are lol.Wow, you really are a dick.
I certainly know someone who doesn't deserve VIP
Like if they are good enough for TrustedRegular(let's just call it that) why can't they just go for VIP if they were good enough for TrustedRegular?
I don't like messaging people for help because I feel like I'm bothering them
The only thing I can see is that there is a small chance of it being abused.
-Kicking another regulars/guest for lolz
-Kicking a guest to bring in a friend
-Kicking someone for messing up once
I could see it happening, but who knows if it really would.
Why do we need to bring a completely new rank when we can just lower the requirements for the VIP?
Who? If you believe someone is abusing feel free to report them.
Not abused their power. But they never used it when it shoulda been used. They don't deserve the power imo and should be demoted. I don't think it's really reportable, but they never listened when bad shit was happening. It's not a problem anymore now mostly because they are inactive now. I'd rather not say who. Cause like I said I'm not one for drama, and it doesn't effect me anymore, though I think it's unfair they have powers they don't deserve I just deal with it because that's life.
Huh? I don't mean make the rank the same power Lol my idea works off of the "VIP get insta kick" idea
But it'd still make a new rank right? Between reg and VIP? I a tad confused lol.
Wouldn't be bothering anyone at all worst case is the person is AFK or busy but if you spam their inbox over and over again thats a different story (I don't mean like asking different times i mean like asking over and over for the same case none stop Lol)
I just would feel like I'm a bugging them, and would feel mean if I only ever messaged them for that lol.
Thats how the old system was and it was abused none stop every single day So we do know if we made all REGs have the same power as before it will happen Lol
But these are new regs? (I think) So maybe they deserve a chance?
Even i have to admit that the VIP rank is very strict from what it use to be but on the other hand we really don't have much abusing at all...
Thats why i said add a new rank so REGs will stay the same, New rank will have the vote kick and VIP have insta kick. Reason REG has always been easy to get is because you need that rank for certain tools in wiremod (atleast you use to I'm not sure if it changed since I haven't played wiremod in well over a year Lol)
Like I said though wouldn't there then be not a very big difference between the new rank and VIP?
Donate for VIP/Admin :DWhat if someone gives $9?
VIP: $10 / sec
Admin: $20 / month
:omgwtftrolld:
Even i have to admit that the VIP rank is very strict from what it use to be but on the other hand we really don't have much abusing at all...We don't have much activity either.
EDIT: Oh shit. I just noticed I'm a reg.
We should really change the name of the third posting rank."Regular Member that is not actually a regular member"
"Regular Member that is not actually a regular member"LOL
Make Reg banner like a VIP one and just have jr and senior member banners.
In conclusion, even though this vote is going throughout, will this idea being carried out?Yep I know that.
No.
Just no for the whole thing.
Abuse cases will sprout again.
To those who say that VIP is hard to get, hasn't it become a little bit easier now? You don't need a 5/5 vote, you just need to have enough positive feedback to get promoted.(http://www.capitolreportnewmexico.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/doh.jpg)
(http://www.capitolreportnewmexico.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/doh.jpg)
Um.I meant for me not realising the new VIP application processing was here for a while
He's right, you know.
Admins and VIP's have a life.and since when to regs and guests not?
Outside the computer.
VIP isn't hard to obtain because of the current requirements, it is hard to obtain because people over rate that rank and will not vote until they are sure that the candidate is almost a complete perfection + we only have a several active VIPs/admins which makes it even harder to be noticed and promoted.
Outta curiosity. What makes a VIP/admin considered inactive? I rarely ever see people get demoted.
It kinda seems once you get it there is no real worry of losing it.
Before you could get demoted for inactivity, but it's somewhat pointless. I mean, the inactive person would just have to re-apply and he'd get his Rank back. That's why that once you're VIP/Admin, there's no real way of losing it unless you abuse.
That's kinda gay... at that point it pretty much becomes a title. And just a way to show off.
I assure you that every single one of our VIPs performs the duties they are assigned when they are on.
And to add to that, it's hard for them to do duties when some are never on. Yes, I know people have lives, school. and work and such. But if they can never be on shouldn't they be just a regular if they are too busy to be able to handle the responsibility of being a VIP?It's not that, it's just pointless to demote them since they can be repromoted at any time they like.
It's not that, it's just pointless to demote them since they can be repromoted at any time they like.
It's just unnecessary to demote for any reason other than abuse.
..so in a sense VIP really is just a title/stroke a person's e-peen? And in some cases could just be considered a goal?Please explain to me how exactly does demoting a VIP for inactivity contribute to the servers in any way.

Gonna have to disagree with you on that, most but not all.

I remember someone saying maybe VIPs stop playing because it takes so long to get VIP, that when they finally do get it, they get bored/start losing interest of the game. But at that point why bother getting VIP? lol
I don't know, just what I think.
There is no clause that VIPs have to play. Granted, many of them no longer do. But the ones that do play do not use VIP as a tag to stand out. Thats what I meant.

I've said that before... more or less you only notice the scarcity of active vips when trouble makers come on. It's not that they're on less after it's that they're typically busier at that point.
I do seek a rank between Reg and Vip with no title change and only votekick once every 10 minutes. It'll keep players more honest as people on the same level as them could watch them and it'll keep any chance of "Special reg's" abuse of power low to nil. Requirements 1: trusted by community 2: active 3: a good record for the past 4-6 months 4: Willing to join game by request to help out.
.
That Tag is it's own issue at times (people play nice when they see a known "vip" join) but at least some players pay attention to whats said when they see it.
I doubt I will ever get VIP even though I think I'd be great for it. Maybe because I'm too active on the server obviously I need to become inactive and just play L4D2 to be able to get VIP. :fire:

Totes cool long text rant aboot purple and sabb ending in smart-ass comment with little to no validity.
"There is no clause that VIPs have to play." So... what's the point of having VIP if they are never there to not really help out? I thought VIPs were given to those who were active in the community and followed the rules?VIPs make mistakes. VIPs just as everyone else might go afk for certain reasons. VIPs cannot be on all the time. It might be hard for 1 VIP to keep track of everything. VIPs just like everyone else get bored of things. VIPs just like everyone else have their troubles and other things in life. VIPs live in many different locations and not all are able to get on by the time the servers go up. VIPs just like everyone else might want to relax after a hard day, therefore managing servers may be too irritating at that certain moment. VIPs just like everyone else want to have fun too. Demoting VIPs for inactivity would decrease the chance of having one on, not by much but it would possibly add up eventually.
Honestly, I just want VIP just to help out. if regulars actually got power, or if there was something in between I'd go for that I don't ever plan on going for admin or higher, too much responsibility lol... It's not bad too much nowadays because we have active VIP a lot of the time now, but not always, luckily we will be getting Kahuna soon <3 but even so he won't always be on, so there will always be times when there are no VIPs on and annoying crap can happen.
"That Tag is it's own issue at times (people play nice when they see a known "vip" join) but at least some players pay attention to whats said when they see it." I agree, sometimes people completely change how they act.
Though I'd also like to add not always was this the case. In the past I remember there were 2 people who had power(because I'm nice and I don't feel like causing shit, I won't name them) there was guys RDMing and acting like asses, and they were both AFK. And it was annoying as hell. And I told the 2 people with power and they didn't see it so they weren't kicked or anything(I believe. Memory is tad foggy but I remember being very annoyed about it.) And I remember I said "why are you guys here if you guys are just gonna take up slots and not even play."(something like this) and one of them said "if people see a VIP/Admin they are less likely to be bad." which is funny because earlier people were doing shit and they were not punished.
Now this happened a few months ago, but I think it should still be brought up.
One of those people are now pretty much completely inactive, they were a shitty VIP as well but it doesn't matter apparently because no one ever loses their rank unless they abuse their power. and the other just doesn't play on TTT anymore I think.
I doubt I will ever get VIP even though I think I'd be great for it. Maybe because I'm too active on the server obviously I need to become inactive and just play L4D2 to be able to get VIP. :fire:
/end wall of text rant
and since when to regs and guests not?
Since you posted.what's that supposed to mean?
>I don't like versus
>I only play L4D2 MLG Expert Realism
>I was never in this open circle of L4D2 Players
>I got admin
Your logic is flawed, sir.
VIPs make mistakes. VIPs just as everyone else might go afk for certain reasons. VIPs cannot be on all the time. It might be hard for 1 VIP to keep track of everything. VIPs just like everyone else get bored of things. VIPs just like everyone else have their troubles and other things in life. VIPs live in many different locations and not all are able to get on by the time the servers go up.

Demoting VIPs for inactivity would decrease the chance of having one on, not by much but it would possibly add up eventually.
>People who overtime spent large amounts of their time on the forums, servers and Etc. being friendly and buliding up friendships with others in the community who which after earning the trust that they can be VIP submit an application. Everyone agrees and that person lives up to their role.>spend time with VIPs
>People who just quickly try to apply regular and soon afterwards try to apply for VIP even though they recieve generally negative feedback and try to sound as if their the the new "sliced bread" of the Forums, servers etc. They also think that any VIP is inactive for 2-3 weeks mean that they have to be demoted immediately.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
what's that supposed to mean?I know you're just trying to help out the server and everything by applying for VIP, but I think you aren't the one for the job. I fixed that sentence for you. Made it an opinion which is what it should be, because it isn't a fact.
Also Hideo, I know you're just trying to help out the server and everything by applying for VIP, but you aren't the one for the job. Don't turn this thread into your "I'M NOT GOOD ENOUGH FOR VIP OMG IM IN THE TOP 10 ARE YOU KIDDING ME" thread.
I know you're just trying to help out the server and everything by applying for VIP, but I think you aren't the one for the job. I fixed that sentence for you. Made it an opinion which is what it should be, because it isn't a fact.
Yeah no it's a fact.
What's your beef with hideo man? Every topic i see him post on you post talking shit on him. pls explainI don't have a problem with him ingame, but on the forums he just acts like an idiot.
To be fair though, you got your stuff a year ago. :p And maybe the L4D2 thing wasn't even there? I can't really comment on that since I wasn't there. It could be different now but I honestly wouldn't know.
- L4D2 Thing? Does this kind of bullshit go around with you guys on the servers? We play L4D2 together because we are all friends. We have been for (some of us) years now. This isn't new, and L4D2 has nothing to do with promotions. Its just friends playing a game, and if you don't believe me, thats on you. Do not try to jab at things you are not certain are true. You end up looking like Mitt Romney.
I understand all of that, and I'm all for that they should have fun. But isn't getting a VIP a sign that you have a little duty towards the servers? I mean months of being active maybe they should be demoted because there are others who deserve it a lot more. Yes, I know that the amount of VIP is not limited at all, but with there being less VIPs I imagine they would be more open to get more VIPs. Hope that makes some kind of sense, I wasn't sure how to properly word that lol.
- You said it yourself. The amount of VIPs are not limited at all. But we do not promote players we do not think can handle it, players that we do not know well, players we don't feel we can trust, etc.
Also, we used to demote based on inactivity. They all reapplied and were accepted again, so we no longer do that. If we had problems with those VIPs, demotions are discussed as they are about every other player.
>spend time with VIPs
>get promoted
Sounds about right. I just want to point out a BS part on your end. "Everyone agrees and that person lives up to their role." No, not everyone. Only VIPs, so those are the ONLY people you need to win approval from. I really wish regulars got a say in VIP and ADMIN applications. I mean are they not also part of the server? They make up most of it, I think they should get a say in what happens. As Dark pointed out, some people change when VIPs are around. Maybe they are the best person in the world when a VIP is around but when they leave, they change. So obviously to VIPs they look great, but maybe not to regulars. But that doesn't matter, there is no need to win the regulars approval. It's only the VIPs that matter after all when trying to go for VIP.
- Up until a short time ago, VIPs couldn't even post on other VIPs applications. It was all admin only. Coolz agreed to let us discuss the promotions publicly to help relieve some of that pressure from the few active admins we have left. That being said, you can, at any time, message any VIP or Admin with your concerns about an applicant. That is why they are posted publicly. That is a decision that coolz has made, and is not likely to change without his doing.
As for your second post, I don't have much to say as it was pretty much just a jab towards me, though I can't be bitter towards that seeing as I did the same with my L4D2 comment in the previous post lol.
Though I will talk about the 2-3 weeks thing you tried to mention. No, the people have been inactive for months on the servers.
- See above.
Not sure why you said names, but meh your call. I don't have proof. It was months ago. I could get back up from other people maybe, but I don't recall who was in the games, as it was months ago. Also I have no reason to lie. It does me no good, it benefits me in no way.
Towards your spoiler.
I agree to it all. Which is exactly why more people should become VIP, which has been happening but a lot of the people being selected aren't even very active, which is why I bugged the shit out of Kahuana to sign up for VIP lol.
And you are right, I'll eventually grow bored of the game, but I'd like to make the game as enjoyable as possible for me and to others until that time happens.
- I understand your point, but you have to understand as well; We will never have enough trusted members to see everything that occurs. We won't be able to keep up with every single RDM, every accused ghoster, hacker, traitor-buddy giveaway, spammer, namechanger, DDOSer, and scripter. It just can't happen. The only way you can try to keep the game enjoyable is to take action the ways that you can; Calling admins, calling VIPs, working with your fellow players to write reports, etc. There will always be a time when there are no VIPs online, and you will have to deal with it the same way then. Why not now?
what's that supposed to mean?
Also Hideo, I know you're just trying to help out the server and everything by applying for VIP, but you aren't the one for the job. Don't turn this thread into your "I'M NOT GOOD ENOUGH FOR VIP OMG IM IN THE TOP 10 ARE YOU KIDDING ME" thread.
Yeah no it's a fact.*facedesk*
*facedesk*I know it's not actually a fact, I'm just trying to make a point.
You're being stupid as me
Never
Be
That
Stupid.
Just promote everyone one to admin and let's see what happens.
Or just add a slay system for the vip's and some reg's who are trust worthy.
some reg's who are trust worthy.
If they're trustworthy they would already be VIP (assuming they made an app anyways)
So yea, I guess. Let's go on with it.
- Ok.
A lot of VIPS do/did play more on that then actually playing on the servers. Playing with friends is fine. Nothing wrong with that, but with power VIPs shoulda came on a little bit more but a lot of times it just seemed everyone with power was on L4D2. It's a lot less of a problem nowadays(because we have 4 awesome VIPs on pretty often, and soon a 5th one) but it use to be a daily annoyance. The whole thing just always seemed like a circle jerk. But hey that's just what I think. My opinion isn't a fact.
- And back to my point earlier. At any point in time, did you call one of us? You saw us all on, but I haven't been called to help since the servers went down. Last night was the first time.
We, again, aren't obligated to play the game. Admins, even. We are available to help though. All of us.
I agree, with that for the most part, amost of VIP do seem like good choices, but there is also one factor left out, whether you admit it or not, and that's being friends with the VIPs.(though I guess that could fall under trust) Pretty sure I already addressed that though.
- That is exactly what it is. Players who are "friends" are much more likely to trust them. And you'd be friends with VIPs too if you got to know any of them.
Eh, kinda lame that someone can leave for 5 months or whatever and come back and still have all that power.
- All of what power? We can start a vote. There isn't much abuse to be had, and if there is, EVERYONE is watching. They get caught.
Shame. I really think REGs should be able to post everywhere, including the admin section to give their own feedback. As I said REGs make up a lot of the community.
I wanted to post on Akalines Admin App BECAUSEAlso wanted to post on some VIP apps just to give my 2 cents but I can't. Kinda sucks.Spoiler (click to show/hide)
- That kind of stuff is not what Coolz is looking for in admin apps. He has said many times that voting members as admins is not something he wants to do. Hell, its a rule on the regular apps too, but no one listens. They are limited to keep the "+1 I like him" comments away. Again, the only way to voice your concerns is a message, and the fact that you took the time to show appreciation/disapproval will more than likely help your case.
Agree with all you said. To answer your question, just to make BS stuff happen even less often. Not much else to really say. Obviously the more VIPs = less BS going on = more enjoyable for everyone.
- Not always true. Remember a few weeks back when me, juan, and lazer were all playing TTT? We were there trying to catch a suspected ghosting team. You guys yelled at us for missing basic RDMers. You guys must understand that we have many things to watch. That instance was one of the cases where 3 VIPs couldn't help you because we were too focused on something else. Which is why I remind you all to record it/screenshot and report.
And yes, I know. It ruins the game at that time. However, the steam cloud allows you to upload in a few seconds. It wouldn't take long to go and show us that he was actually RDMing, instead of yelling and screaming and calling us retards. We will take action with proof; we have to see it otherwise. You can't punish on hearsay.
It's why I attempted to get it, just to try and make it better while I'm on.
I'm just happy someone I wanted even more then me to get VIP, is getting it.
- Ok.
