    Like trinity said,

    If u have a good idea, the community and even the Admin will usually sponsor/fund the entire thing, just so long as you take the time to plan, organize, and host it well.

    Also having good advertising helps.

    (also getting people to donate in-game billboards for ads increases participation a TON.)

    Get someone to make a fancy advert for it. (Yumakirosaki used to make mine), ask LO to back it with some type of prize/judging, ask Kemp or a popular streamer to Livestream the event live for people who can't participate. Offer an additional "everyone who participates gets entry into a small raffle" prize, so ppl will participate regardless of if they think they'll win or not.

    If you do this, it'll guarantee at least 100 entries/participants. Also advertise that it is community sponsored and donations are welcome. You'll probably end up with a much bigger prize pool than you even thought you'd have.

     

    Yas gurl!  Preach baby!  =D


  2. Mini Games can be triggered by any community member, anytime.  Just look at WitchQueen who was like, the first who put on really good - large based community games.  If we had more people from the community step up and host events, forum members can help spread the word to get participants.  You don't always have to have prizes either.. most people have been supporting this game through thick and thin and just want to have a strong community bond.  I say just post something you want to see done and ask for help from Forum and just DO IT!  WOOT!

  3. I can value the struggle of addiction to pay to win mode of hacking.  It is certainly part of the gaming culture to not want to be out skilled in anything however, the thought of being out hacked hurts the roots of our gaming egos.  The idea that you lost to an actual good player is respectful, but loosing to a hacker just plain hurts.

     

     

    However, the mode which you "Dark Knighted" the threats and are now promising to further hack so you can catch these hackers seems noble except when you see the addiction coming in, and you don't turn off the hack even when playing a "legit" player.  Thus, I have to disagree with the way you are handling things.  

     

     

    Put the mask and cape away for now Sir.. with great power comes great responsibility and hacking is your Kryptonite.  But nice try  =D

    @cookie 

    Yes those are imprtant qualifications...but those are just statistics that they can view. I think it goes a little deeper as well...because there are members who meet all those prerequisites who have proven to be unfit to wield any form of authority or power. Some people who backed up everything tiggs said and did and "fairfight is never wrong,  all people on ff cheated" etc and witch-hunted, along with some of the forum Moderators who banned based on personal reasons other than the Terms of Service, but were never repremanded or questioned.

    Which is why I think it'd be helpful to acknowledge people who actually would be good at the job from people who know more about the individual community members.

     

    To be fair, nothing was done without prior approval so no one was a lone gun in the forum bans.  At least at the time that I was leader, these had to be approved first.  I can't say what happened for the past 1 year or so though.

    My 2 cents: try to pick people who are fluent in more than just one language.

     

    Players who struggle most with the game are often those who also struggle with english.

    OMG, thank you for bringing that up.  When we monitored forums, this was always an area I felt that didn't get enough attention.  I know a few of us that would sit and try to translate forum posts and answer but it took a long time if you say... knew Spanish but not Portuguese.  I can tell you from experience... Spanish is NOTHING like Portuguese and Google translate still needed time to get better!  so yea.. would love to see this happen too!  Great point.

    I'd rather the applicants get approved based on competence and not popularity. If you can have both, that's great. As an ex-SPCM I can tell you that this new program has the advantage of less negative stigma in the air. It was hard to get taken seriously as an SPCM by anything other than newer players and in my experience the frustration was taken out on me and most likely other SPCMs, since we had a "connection" to G1. I was either spammed with troll questions to waste my time or just straight up harassed multiple times. The SPCMs I worked with were all very commited but I think over time this sort of stuff really demotivated us.

     

    However, this new program is coming from LO which has already done good for the community and keeps hope growing. With this new atmosphere surrounding the game I believe I can reach alot more players more effectively, which is why I applied.

    So much truth.  The program itself went through many changes and reinventions.  I am certain that vets like you can help give great advice and experience.  I've always liked your posts, even if they stung a little =D

    As Lixil clarified, the player GM'S she will be selecting will NOT have the full-reign that previous GM'S had...

    They will basically act as the new SPCM (San Paro city Mentors).

     

     

    I wanted to throw in my two cents on a few members who would fit the position .

    -members with long-standing, clean records

    -who are and have been continually active for many many years

    -nonconfrontational, level-headed people

    -positive, helpful people

    Always available. Everyone knows Sadira. She is nice.

    Anyone else think of any people who would be particularly good for the position? (Don't nominate yourself.)

    I would support all of these 😃 people.  Anytime I held any kind of Community Event, these guys have participated and assisted.  Good ladies and gentlemen all around.
