The residential area should definitely take up all three tiles to the north. That way, if we need to expand it, we have plenty of room to.

Not really with Starnia there. Or is that person no longer online ?
Also anti can I build a tunnel to your area ? Tunnels are safer than roads if well lit, and its easy to travel that way if /home is gone.

Because I represent the West and now have more time to play since college apps and finals are over.

I'll be watching all of you.

We need to finalize the city plans so that we can get to work. I'm getting rather bored waiting.

I like the idea a lot, but I don't want that we start new world.


As for GDL acting as capitol for our city, I have nothing against it. If we are going to divide to several smaller states. I'm ready to offer GDL keep as capitol again.
Long as Fanner shows green light that is :P


Sure!

I'm not playing lately because I've got 8 exams in 2 weeks' time, and I've been studying a lot. :( They're finals.

Fun with the new mods. Though I feel slightly bitter, I have been neglecting my duty due to waning interest. That interest has been renewed with the reintroduction of Teehee and Undone playing more though.

Suffca is a mod now? Oh boy...this can't end well for me. :cold:

And Teehee as well? I find that surprising considering I havent seen her online for over a month. I'm sure the current admins were....*ahem* persuaded though....... :wink:

Surprising choices for mods to be honest.

When I'm sick I'm cynical. And considering insanity is an illness of the mind I'm cynical all the time.

But I'm just being honest mate. Would you rather I simply praise the new mods without reservation or would you rather I actually express my genuine concerns?

In all honesty the mods increasingly seem to be becoming a "jobs for the boys" situation rather than awarding moderator status due to merit. As a community server, this simply should not be. There was no consulation with the community about new mods whatsoever. I have serious doubts about a couple of the new mods and how good it actually is for the server for them to hold that status. The "having a mod in every timezone" seems to be a load of crap in my eyes. During my late afternoon/evening/night there are usually about half a dozen people that play throughout that time. None of the new mods come from that time, so how can these promotions be truly to address this supposed issue? At this very moment a mod is needed and yet no-one is one.

Also, the seemingly demotion of a previous mod has me very suspicious. "Not being on" can hardly be used as an excuse as about 1/3 of the mods on the current list are people I have seen online maybe once or twice. It seems as though the moderator status is being abused and its unsettling to see that.

Sorry to say it, but I had to get that off my chest. I have no personal problems with any mods, but I do have concerns about the way the server is heading. And I'm not convinced its in a good direction.

Starnia hasn't been officially abandoned but considering the fact that Allstar hasn't been online since the very first days this map was up it's effectively been abandoned.

And yeah you can build a tunnel to me if you want. Try to make the tunnel wind up connecting to some point on the north side (left side) of my peninsula.

if they are separate each section of the district can have a different building style


Trust me, each building will already have a different style if people are given free reign to build whatever they want in the area they're given. We don't need to split up the districts for that.

I'll agree with Robbio, some of the choices seem dubious.

I know you're not being serious but I won't abuse my mod powers. :P

And yes the time zones were the real reason and all the mods that were chosen have been on since the beginning. (Besides Simpsonfly of course)

Okay, now you're making me feel unworthy.

Maybe I am? I don't know anymore. :sadvaultboy:

Saurok and possibly Povu have been mods-in-waiting for quite some time. Both have been rule-abiding members throughout, who have contributed a large amount to the community. I don't think there can be any issue taken with them.

TeeHee contributed heavily to previous community-based projects in the past and, while she might not like the accusation, has a fantastic level of pedantry which will lend itself well to moderation of the new ruleset. She has also been active in discussion over the last month (via Steam chat) about possible changes to increase interaction among players. She has been off the server over the last month as a combination of disinterest in the current server and some family matters, but is an otherwise active player.

What issue is there with Suffca?


As for Jedi, he'd been incommunicado for about a month. Pete's activity was consistently low too. We'd also not heard anything from them regarding the running of the server, or any indication that they wanted to continue as a mod. The mod list needed a revamp, and it made sense to remove those who showed no sign of activity. That Jedi has suddenly returned just as we did it is pure coincidence, and his position will be reconsidered.


EDIT: There was no "WE NEED A MOD IN THE GMT-5 TIME ZONE!", just "yeah, and his online hours match up conveniently too". We can't guarantee that a mod will always be on, because that's impossible, but we should have the USA and Europe covered fairly well.
