Respected overhaul
« on: November 07, 2009, 09:39:11 AM »
It seems that everyday I go into a server, I see many nice people that, In my opinion, are perfectly fit for the title of respected. Everyday, I also see many users that probably should not have the title. Most users with it do not initiate a votekick at the end of a flood round (if needed that is, due to waiters), usually because they are one of the parties waiting. To many a time I come in, and see a respected use and their friend, sitting on the boat waiting it out. Now, I will say no names as I can not prove, but i am sure all of you know who I mean.

Most of the respected users got the title simply by signing up and complying to a simple format of request. I believe this is outrageous. This system has let many ill needed respected users in, such as .:ScReAm:.Master chief. here is a chat log, the parts in brackets are commentary, so you know roughly whats happening in game:

Really, how on Earth did this guy get the title. I think this shows that the system is flawed. I propose the following for respected status:

1: All current respected users are to have their power revoked. Although there are many good respected users, it is matched by many bad ones. They will have to prove they are mature enough to handle the responsibility, but obviously good (and active) ones, such as Crazed Gunner, should not have to prove so.

2: All respected users should have a minimum post count of 50. After 50 posts, it should be relatively easy to see if the person is qualified.

3: Slightly off topic, but the respected status should be more noticeable. At the moment it is just a .: in their name. New users, and even some veteran users, don't know what it means. I think a respected user group, similar to the admin group, should be made. Thus, on the scoreboard, there would be 3 categories: users, respected users and admins.

4: If it comes to light that a respected user is abusing his power (with proof of said abuse) his title should be challenged, and removed if necessary.

5: Whether a user becomes respected or not should not be a community matter. If it is, people will vote based on friendships and vendettas rather on whether they are qualified. The admins should fairly review the users posts and doings, trying his best to be unbiased.

6: Respected users should have at least a basic grasp on English. Too many times have I seen a ball of gibberish come up in the chat box, then a votekick initiate. Without this, users would not properly know when they are being warned.

I believe if these steps are taken, the quantity of respected users would go down, but the quality would vastly rise. Of course, this is only a set of suggestions, and a few may be impracticable or time consuming.

Aparently, Master was not respected, and was only posing. Admins, feel free to use this post as proof against his case. My point still stands thoguh, as there are other people like master who are respected.

post count doesent mean anything
better make a system where quality posts are reviewed by admins to make the decision

If some one does 50 posts you see, on average, the ratio of good/bad posts. If you do one post, that on post is the deciding factor on your fate for the title, which is currently happening.

Your question would of been easily answered if you read the OP.
