Why do you trust users who apply for staff with staff powers then? This is a bad argument. Gamemasters would obviously have to apply, get an interview, be on probation with reduced powers, be a GH, get GM and do the same work to get more power. If this confuses anyone I have implemented a system like this before and with some thought it can be easily applied

Meant to say denied due to community feedback

I like it but I think it will turn into a shit show. Trust me the events are so terrible I sometimes play destiny 2 during events! I think i'll +1 becauase I wanna see actual good events rather than hopefully it will work also I wanna see GM officers and cheif actually do something because they obviously are not enforcing creative events and just care about the quota. As an ex GM officer I looked for quality over quanity and I used to host creative events with 1 fucking event job so I don't know why our current GM system can't thrive. This new system might actually bring a golden age to the GM's

@Feds -1 +1 if only @Daytona211 gets it

Wait a minute.. that's the dead space gun. Why exactly?

Name: Hunter RP Rank: SL Suggestion: Creation of a Game master branch that would operate through applications on the forums Implementation: Would Require the creation of a seperate Game Master tag in Game and on the forums. It would allow more thought out ideas as recent events have become few and far between and stale rappidly. Encounters take up the bulk of action time and usually divulge into defend the base maybe commando droid, someone gets taken hostage, blah blah blah. This would allow members of the community to reach out and prove their ideas to the server and their creative mind on what they could acomplish through simply being a game master without the hassle of becoming a staff member and having to go through the ranks for several weeks. It would also require a revampment of the GM program that could incorporate the ideas of regular people and the duty fullness of staff that could help mantain the program and watch over the community members that applied through application. I believe in the end this will truly help the server by not only increasing the amount of events but also increase the creativity and freshness that the members of this community can produce. Lore:na Workshop content if applicable:na

I recall @Joah saying this will never happen. +1 from me. I like the idea of staff and GM being completely separate entities as it encourages GM's to focus on solely events and staff solely on tickets. (RIP General Ven) but I doubt this will go anywhere since it has been posted around 50 times before

>Another suggestion for VIP Gamemasters -1, There are about 6-10 threads of arguments against this, but the suggestion has always been EVENT BY STAFF BAD, EVENT BY RANDOM PLAYER GOOD Plus, wouldn't people who join Non-staff gamemaster (if that's what we're calling it now) not get a reward? GM's incentive is to get promoted, Non-staff gamemaster gets... Anywho, i'll just recycle my old arguments 1. Staff reach senior admin before being Gamemaster, meaning we have essentially observed them for 1 to 2 months as a staff member and saw that nothing was wrong with them. Applications don't let us have that "observation" period and again, let any random player be a gamemaster after reaching an hour requirement etc. 2. It's also just creating something that already exists. What powers do N-SGM"s need to do their job? Literally every power you get as senior admin, but with non of the work. The only exception is kick and ban. You need whitelisting powers for your GHs. You need physgun powers for building. You need noclip and admin mode. You need cloaking devices. And you need toolgun perms for spawning weapons and droids. What makes this a non-staff branch? The inability to kick and ban, essentially. 3. Lots of people join staff specifically to become a GM, which helps with staff numbers. Alot of people bitched then and they bitch now "I NEVER GET AN SA TO TAKE MY TICKET REEEEEEE GIVE ME ATRT." Imagine if N-SGM's couldn't take tickets, because they don't need to since they are, again, not staff. Having that reward for reaching senior admin will keep people dedicated into staff and at least make the effort. EDIT: I forgot one crucial thing: While I was still high-staff, I called out. Anybody who wants to put ideas in the event-section of the forums, fucking do it and I'll host an event. So many good ideas from the community that you preach about, where the fuck are they?

+1 so much all the way across the sky... There are a lot of creative individuals in the community who want to be a game master and make quality events but don't want to go through the hassle of spending months working their way up through staff and contributing to branches they don't have passion for. This results in a lot of untapped wasted potential in a lot of the members here who could be greatly improving the event standard.

Why would a clone use this as a weapon..? -1. Looks like more resources that the server doesn't need has no lore evidence of use.

Name: Null-6 Lieutenant Kom'rk Skirata RP Rank: Lieutenant [Lorewise] (but Captain) Suggestion: I am Suggesting that we allow Vet Admins+ to override the current rule that we have that forbids us to kick people that do not have 5+ hours during and ONLY Prime time hours in which the server is full. The Reason why I say "Override" is due to the fact that I am not trying to remove the AFK 5+ hour rule, but only trying to add a Exception to temporarily override it to the point where people who want to contribute to the server can get on rather than waiting 5 long hours in order to get a spot. I'm not saying go around and kick everyone within 5 secs of standing still, but rather go around (Specifically bunks and benches) and kick people who are clearly AFK after trying to make multiple attempts to contact them via their peers or TS. if no contact is made then they are free to be kick. This will allow the server to be freed up for those who truly want to play and/or do Staff work on the Server. Implementation: Make this an Override Rule (or Exception) during the prime time hours when server is full. Other: Or make it HA+ but if no HA+ are on then allow the Vet Admins to do it as they are responsible individuals and earned their position to be allowed to be given a simple task as this. Edit: Adjusted Rank

There's a reason staff is required and its due to the fact that they are able to be monitored and is less work for the staff team to be looking at other teams. Look at superior servers for example. They ban more "Player GameMaster" and "Bought Lowest Tier admins" than any other players on their server. Its not happening. If you want to make a difference, be a staff member. Easy as that. I am not giving a tool to GM players to crash the server. Not happening.

Yo what the fuck, Isaac Clarke up in this bitch. But why the fuck you putting dead space lore for real. This server is becoming a mess with lore.

+1

+1 GMs be ass. As much as I disagreed previously this might actually be relevant now. Which is a yikes.

+1 do a thing where people who apply can be event creators i.e make up stories and keep track of what happens on the server so we actually be a serious rp. Events will effect the server

+1 send it

They were removed for a very good reason. M9K itself I'm pretty sure was breaking shit as it was, then how the dets were used in general crashed the server on multiple different occasions. That's a wide -1. @Scribbles I remember.

+1 I've always said that there should be non staff gamemasters

They would need some. Just the ability to build and spawn droids. Difference between staff game masters and the suggestion is that it opens the GM branch up to people who are passionate about wanting to become a game master but don't want to put up with the standard staff drama. Kind of like the TR branch. There are lots of trainers who aren't staff who are doing it just because they want to be a trainer. They don't get a benefit out of it. New admins get promoted by training and taking tickets where they can.

+1 I love this idea, a push for something like this can only make game masters more open and creative. As well as restoring their drive to do quality events more often.

I mean, why does it have to be only for Tech? Let some engineers use it as well, imo. +1 though, really nice weapon.

Sniff just wants some more explosives on scorch. Also half the time I feel like I see the same suggestions get suggested again such as this one +1 though this would be nice to have

Trade y'alls jetpacks for it OMEGALUL @Sixta -1 unless this would go to all JTs. Sorry but dunno why only 327th would get them.

I will +1, For Personnel who Complete 1 Term as SOBDE RCMD

listen bro me and dragon brought up that idea for a big exchange of the like 80% of the kit But imo that should probably stick with RANCOR, But Since your fucking XO Uses a prototype Z-6 Every fucking time he goes into an FFA. I'm Gonna +1 cause i feel really bad for your JT Branch

RP Name: 501st ARFT SFC PLTO B2 Axe Steam ID: STEAM_0:0:146899122 Staff member you are reporting: Dennis Staff Members Steam ID (If applicable): STEAM_0:0:86273369 Staff Members Wrong-Doing: Unprofessional and childish name calling Calling a player a retard during an event. Explain the situation: Dennis the HA of clone wars was doing an event and i was in a v-19 fighter fighting him he was in a vulture fighter which he was spawning almost in plain sight next to the lake. I was doing the RP and looking for any ships to shoot down and i saw one and i shot at it i got close and we both blew up then Dennis yelled at me in RP calling me a retard. This situation could have been avoided if the GM just spawned the ships away from where the even was happening AKA out of sight of players. It was extremely unprofessional to call someone a name like that to people who might actually have that disability and i think everyone can agree to expect something more from an HA. Evidence (If applicable): I saw hunter was there so he might have heard everything

-1 Ain’t trusting randoms with staff powers.. been denied a million times before

I do not agree with statements that this cannot be controlled. Game master officers+, or even head admins can just add it to things they should be doing. Or even people shadowing can help. Watching and containing the unfit and reported. Shouldn't be that hard. Make a system with a report form if anyone has complaints about said game master, look into it, deal with it. As for the idea itself, it's a mix. Anyone can do anything. Anyone who applies for staff can work their way up then break the fuck out of the server, it's been done before. This system might just need development and trust. However, there are the ups and the downs. Here is a list of staff powers. Highlighted in green is what the non staff should have in my eyes: Mute Kick Ban Whitelist Jail Weapon spawning Prop spawning Physgunning Admin chat Ability to modify properties via C menu Teleport Set health Set armor Freeze Toolgun access (weapons spawning only) And more. Thus making by this list alone, a normal staff member has more powers then a non staff game master. Making staff more desired. If you wanted MY opinion, get them to work with SA+ for things like props and big events (do not mistake this for me saying that they should be shadowed by SA+, because that is not what I just said). This will ensure a more contained system of what they can do. It's really easy to control, but just required the right people. Which is why I'm not so sure this can work at the moment, but people can prove me wrong if this does get accepted as I trust in a select few game masters and SA+ I don't have any intentions of defending this because I see both the goods and the bads to this. I just wish to point out what can come of it and how it possibly can assist the server. Who knows. Giving things a shot can yield the results to reach a solid verdict.
