I'll give you a chance personally, vouch.

Bumping for more feedback.

Welcome back.

The time has come for the monthly activity checks to resume. From herein, I will be checking activity on the 1st of each month. The current requirement to retain admin status on the server is 12 hours within the past 30 days.

For those who have been removed in this thread, if you do wish to return you may reinstate with 3 hours of weekly playtime by March 8. If you wish to reinstate after this time, the regular 9 hours in 30 days is what is required.

The removed admins this time are:

man
dragoncat

gamingto12

itzchr1s1

renzothehottie

Regardless of what becomes of this, I thank all those involved for the time they have dedicated to the server, it's always appreciated and I understand that life happens, especially with exam season on the horizon.

Thank you.

Hi welcome back, as others have said, activity is the thing that needs worked on in the moment. Once you have 9 hours within the last 30 days on plan, I can proceed with approving this.

boring, uncool

"This term is a slur against those who are neurodivergent or have a cognitive disability. It should not be used to make a point about a person, place or thing."

I don't see how asking people not to use this word is "Literally textbook woke culture". I'm not going around and asking it to be cancelled or banned but it's an offensive enough word to enough people that I can see why some would have objections to it's colloquial use.

I was actually going to vouch given it had been a while but uh

Object, tried to bribe me.

Welcome back, Bowie. I've added you back on the forum and discord, in-game and panel will be sorted in due course.

Okay, so I will admit I've forgotten this and I do apologise for that, been dealing with some bereavement which has distracted me. This'll also be quite a lengthy post just so I can try and say everything that I would like to say in this matter.

I was trying to avoid the suspension in the first place, despite there being issues and concerns popping up regarding how Pharma dealt with situations - in particular how strict and abrasive he had been while conversations with both operators and fellow staff. Despite warnings from myself and other admins, and an attempt at retraining him to get used to the new way things worked, these issues prevailed.

The straw that broke the camels back happened early morning of the 20th when he got involved in a flame war with a player and then proceeded to ban that player for arguing with him. This all occurred after Pharma had claimed to be heavily intoxicated with both alcohol and cannabis.

This incident I believe was worthy of a suspension by itself and late on the 21st, after I had finished my shift I made my final decision and posted this thread.

After hearing about this, Pharma sent a lengthy rant to me in private messages before continuing that rant out into the discord server before he left the discord and deleted his forum account. He hasn't been heard from since.

So, the reason this post is quite long (and it could be longer) is to try and explain why I'm coming to the conclusion im coming to. I am going to change this suspension to an indefinite one, given the circumstances leading up to and following the initial suspension.

Before anyone grabs their pitchforks, this has nothing to do with elongating the suspension in any way. Rather, I feel the indefinite suspension return process is more appropriate for these circumstances, and will give Pharma a chance to smoothly integrate into the new community and prove that he is trusted enough to return to administration when he would like to come back.

It's an unfortunate situation all in all, and most importantly I wish him the best going forward regardless of whether or not he comes back.

The suspension has ended and rylie has been returned to her position.

@ThePharmaPirate has been suspended for two weeks for repeatedly breaking rule 2b of the staff conduct policy, as well as, to a smaller extent, rules 2a and 3c.

root has been suspended from her senior admin position for one week for a malicious misuse of power, breaking rule 3c of the staff conduct policy.

She will remain in her role as a system administrator across the network, but will not be taking part in freedom server administration (i.e sanctions on players breaking the rules) during this time.

This movement is NOT an enemy of the daleks.

It's been almost a year since you last did anything untoward and your original ban was June 2021.

I believe in the ability for people to change and accept your apology and thus I'll vouch for the release of your ban.

I won't comment on this situation yet as I haven't a full picture of what happened but I'll read through the chat logs and general logs of what happened tomorrow to try and paint an objective picture of what happened.

I'm going to approve this, and just for clarification, here's why.

Red currently serves as ECM but due to rank limitations, he needs admin perms to be able to partake in the duties of that role. As an assistant executive, he would be exempt from an activity requirement due to the time invested behind the scenes.

Welcome back.

Tournament winner prediction: Argentina

A solid team all around, Argentina might not be as strong as they were in 2014 or even 2018 but Lionel Messi is back in form and is always going to be a menace for opposition defenders. That's not to take away from any of the other attackers either - Scaloni has a plethora of options, with the likes of Paulo Dybala, Lautaro Martinez and Angel Correa to complement the greatest player of all time. The midfield options aren't bad either - Rodrigo De Paul and Leandro Paredes are among the favoured options for a double pivot, who could also operate in a three man midfield with Alexis Mac Allister or Papu Gomez playing as an attacking option ahead of them. Defensively there's solid options too - Christian Romero has to be starting and Nico Otamendi can provide the experience to solidify the back line. Tagliafico has been one of the more underrated left backs in the past few years and Montiel is more than good enough on the right to go the whole way. Not only has the back line got the pedigree, but even if you get past that, Emi Martinez is the best goalkeeper Argentina has seen in quite some time.

Good evening

The votes came in, and I'm delighted to announce that man has been promoted to senior admin following the latest round. He's always committed himself to doing the best for the server even if it was an inconvenience to himself - whether it was as an admin or an event host which were both roles he committed himself to. It's safe to say the result is more than deserved, and I'd like to congratulate him on his promotion.
