A new QM
« on: September 15, 2003 12:24 pm CDT »
BEFORE YOU VOTE, READ THIS

Alright, well from what Iv'e heard so far, Gul'Dar has been on a total of twice in like 4 weeks, but I also have heard that he is sortof working on new prefabs and such for the update, so that is a good thing.

What i'm suggesting is a new QM since obviously Gul'Dar is too busy on the prefabs for the update, or whatever else he is doing.  Many others agree with me, which is why Iv'e stepped forward to address the situation.

From talking with everyone, I have observed that 3 people seem to be the natural leaders of the server--the ones that everyone likes and look up to.  Here are those people:

7
Xanth
GE

Now, before you vote, read the following--it is my opinion on each of the people.

7, in my opinion, would be the best choice for a new QM.  He has a lot of experience in questing (he runs his own server, so obviously he knows enough to be a good QM--i'll send some stuff to whoever gets this position if Particle allows a new QM.) and is a VERY very kind person.  He is slow to speak, quick to listen, and definately would be a good choice for this position.  Out of all the time I have known him, he has been the one that didn't bother people, and had many friends.

Xanth, in my opinion, is a good choice for QM but not the best.  He has a lot of experience with tribes code, and has been a PeaceKeeper for a while, but from what Iv'e seen he acts a little too quickly when it comes to administering punishment.  It's not so bad as a peacekeeper, since he can only jail, but with admin it could be worse.  He is a good guy other than that--I respect him and he has many friends and people who look up to him.  

GE, in my opinion, is a very very cool guy.  We've been friends for quite some time, and he is fun to be with.  The only downside for GE I think is that he doesn't have enough experience with admin, or with scripting quests.  He can be taught, but I think in this situation, we need someone who already has experience.  Don't get me wrong--I love GE, he is an awesome guy--he just doesn't have the experience of the other 2.  No babies yet, GE =)

All in all, those 3 people were the top picks when I asked around the server.  

I have absolutely NOTHING against Gul'Dar--so far from what Iv'e seen, hes a very cool guy, but he just isn't on enough to hold the QuestMaster position.  I know it might be because of the patch, or real life, or whatever it might be--but we should probably get a new QM since he is so busy.  Maybe he could still be QM after the patch is released and he doesn't have so much work to do?

You may now vote =)

Xanth it is. Scripting can be learned. Personality can't.

Naturally, but who says 7 has a bad personality? =)  I know that xanth has enemies--7 has no enemies whatsoever (other than G-Unit, who pretty much nobody likes).  7 never annoys anyone, and always helps out when asked.  He also runs his own server, and writes his own quest scripts, which is a good thing to have when aspiring to be a QM ^_^

I agree that xanth is the best choice. Of course, that is only an opinion but there it is for what it is worth.
The problem is these polls cannot be taken too seriously because it is too easy to fix the results by using multiple accounts to vote. (this has happened in the past unfortunately).
The final decision will still fall with part.

The only original member of the server still active and the staunchest supporter of the administration and Particle's rules.
4th in doghouse. Last in actual server and forum rules broken.

Of course it won't count. This is a user-made poll, despite LastWish being an (ex?)admin. Anyway, from what I remember, 7 didn't have a mean disposition, but he did have an easily set-off temper, and that is just as bad, in my opinion.

Yeah I mugged like one thing from him (7) and he was like "I'm going to make your tRPG life a living hell". I would have given it back, but he like instantly started h8-n.  :?

Too bad I don't play that much. ^_^

Yeah, that's basically what he did to DoDoDo, and how I know he has a temper. (This was before DoDoDo became famous, mind you.)

Just to let you guys know before you vote.

This isn't official in any way. Just an opinion.

Looks like you're the successor. Maybe the master should teach you some tricks of the trade.  :twisted:

Looks as though xanth has the popular vote =)  Particle, would you consider adding in a new QM?  I know this vote isn't official, but it does show that a new QM should be assigned..
