Good, we're not in for a good amount of change. We already enforce 90% of this - some of the rules are downright not how we do stuff, though. For example, "warden never said how long we were playing the minigame for" and exiting obby has never been a thing for a year as far as I remember until umbra showed up. I think it's both right and wrong what he's doing. He's adding all the stuff we never bothered to add, but yet, his small playtime on the sever also could make it harder for him to realise stuff like this. And that our way of moderating the servers are far more different than any other server,
@Umbra Vorago.
EDIT: I think for a player that is not used to a server like SG, judging admins based on their way of moderating a server is wrong, unless they're being rude - especially when I get called out for being a bad admin because I didn't do something we haven't enforced for months/a year?
"some of these are downright not how we do stuff"
Well please excuse my comment for this, but bullshit. Whilst I agree that you, maybe many others did not enforce/do this, there were also plenty of others who did, that that is where I picked it up from, your already existing "smartasses" as some call them. Through my experience on the server, we already do have plenty of smartasses, and plenty of scenarios which need sorting out. I will add the only reason you may think it's just because I showed up, is certainly because I'm one of the most vocal people on the server and have a big mouth. Example, arguing with admins, posting an entire thread about the various rules etc etc.
If there is stuff that "some" of you do not do, that is completely fine and I respect that, we all have our own ways, but there needs to simply be guidelines for the various situations, for those who DO play differently than yourself and others, they need to know what can and can not be done, what is and is not allowed, what level of smartassery we are willing to put up with and not.
That is the point of this thread, something I think many of you have forgotten. Sit down, explain why you agree/disagree with the rules, state what changes do/do not need making. I mean I the only SOLID reason I see to oppose this entire thing, is the comment someone made of it making the rules being too long, which would put players off. That however is fixable with bold and spoiler texts. The rest has simply been bullshit wrapped in spite for me, fear/disapproval of change, more irritation at me for whatever reason, but their too prideful to back down and think of the possibility that they might be wrong, and I know I'm going to get flak for that comment.
TL:RD; If you disagree with something because that's different, come up with a valid reasoning why it should be otherwise, not "I disagree boo I vote no."
Side note;
I have attempted to bridge the gap with those of you I have angered/irritated, even before being an admin;
Beast for example just flat out ignores me in game unless admin related, even if I am simply trying to apologize for dickish behavior whilst in game.
Dic Soupcan hated me because when we first met, he thought I was up my own ass and have too huge an ego. I agree with the ego part, that's just me. I tried in game being friendly to him, to which he responded with more irritation and spite, then finally when SNC tried to bring us together to sort things out, refused to even speak to me.
I am sorry for bothering you people in whatever way, yes I'm a smartass who prides himself in being right, and yes I have a huge ego, but no I did not mean to cause such petty bullshit and fighting, for fuck sake the hostility in this community is through the roof and I do NOT want that, why the hell would I?
If some of you wish to continue hating me or disagreeing with this thread simply due to your personal opinions, even after me apologizing for being who I am, fine, I could not give two shits, no, not even one shit whether people hate me or not for trying to clarify shit for everyone or whatever bullshit reason they come up with in their head.
Haters gonna hate;
