We have 8 admins [Not including management] one of the 8 is a trial admin. This is a problem as we need more admins as because at the minute some times we have 0 admins online. Which means more hackers and rule breakers.woot wrote:It's not that easy.Benny wrote:We should have more admins. Not considering removing our current ones...

And I assume helpers are the top priority when making new admins? We'll get new ones when woot finds decent players up for the task. I don't doubt he'd like to have dozens of admins that are awesome in every possible way, but that is just not the way things are.Benny wrote:We have 8 admins [Not including management] one of the 8 is a trial admin.

More admins = More evidence quicker as admins will not have to deal with millions of things at once.

Hacking is not a major issue right now, at least not hacking the way I imagine you percieve it; what I mean by this is that the problem doesn't lie in players spawning weapons or using speed hacks, but in those concealing them and adding more admins won't help with this. Lots of evidence and review will though.
Admins need to have experience about the 0.3z mechanics, not having it may lead to wrong ban and further confusion, as experienced in the past.Benny wrote:More admins = More evidence quicker as admins will not have to deal with millions of things at once.

More admins = More opinions, just like the Giovanni case. This means we have a greater overall admin team.
Less admins = Bigger work load.
About the whole helper thing. Not true. Mason or Thomas were never helpers.

Ye, but as the amount of admins increase, the less reports these admins will have to deal with. This would help as admins will have less issues meaning less mistakes.Luigi Tattaglia wrote:Raising the number of admins also raises the number of eventual errors. I rather see ten out of a hundred reports solved properly instead of half of them handled wrongfully.
More opinions don't matter either; opinions of people with the necessary knowledge however do matter.
I can vouch for the abusive personality. But I still think we need more admins. I don't mean hundards. I mean maybe 5 more.Luigi Tatta lia wrote:Raising the number of admins raises the number of potential mistakes. There is no workaround with this. Having less admins that resolve less reports, but appropriately do so, is the way to go.
Having less things to do won't change one's eventually abusive personality.
If we can somehow lower the amount of reports people are making these days I'm all for that. It's a shame people are reporting even for the slightest annoyance they come across, both in-game and on the forums. Instead of asking for clarification with someone who may have broken the rules, they go straight to the forums or the /report button, while in a lot of cases there weren't any rules broken at all. Dealing with these senseless complaints and reports is taking up most of the time we spend on administrative duty.Luigi Tattaglia wrote:Raising the number of admins raises the number of potential mistakes.

Usually the first 5 posts are enough, rest is bullshitLuigi Tattaglia wrote:Yeah, I'm aware of that, especially seeing as before you even manage to check the report in question, two-three pages of discussion have already been posted.
