↩  StevenNL2000 i have been under the impression that ryan is unwilling to install plugins or customize the flarum install further in any meaningful way. we're supposed to switch to woltlab whenever that's able to become a priority.

vouch.

most of the templates don’t need to be pinned (the info category exists for a reason) and some posts should be merged. the pin system doesn’t work very well on flarum where we read by latest responses. so, we should be more conservative about pins.

it’s very common for people to clear their browser data, whether by browser extensions (cookie autodelete, history cleaner) or manually, especially on mobile. on desktop, i use cookie autodelete to evade tracking cookies, and on iOS i use private browsing for most things because it doesn’t have that extension yet. on the other hand, i have found the wall of pins to be a nice way to tell whether or not i’m logged in on mobile.

also, those who browse the forum without an account, or those who just don’t care for every pin, would appreciate not needing to click to load more posts just to reach the first actual discussion.

object.
worst of all this will devalue the event server. this idea sounds like long-form events without the live hosting, which is the event server’s most redeeming quality. players won’t commit to the game modes once the rotation is no longer fresh and new. that’s why “this world does not regularly reset” is considered a selling point for f-01.

↩  StevenNL2000 then i wish they’d do those things first, and only warn, threaten, or punish if there is evidence a player’s use of commands isn’t legitimate. the player should only be confronted as a last resort.

i always expect that there’s always someone watching, that’s not my issue here. the crux of my complaint is that players are made to feel like they’ve done something wrong when they haven’t.

"shows the coin balance of a player, or pays another player from your coin balance" is as short as i think you're gonna get without splitting it into a separate command

neutral because i don't care if the actual policy changes, but i'd appreciate more leniency about commands.

because i'm not known for building, whenever i do more than a few rotations and replacements, it bothers an admin and i regularly get checked up on. if you're worried someone's gonna crash the server, add the necessary patches.

many admins are obsessed with reading every message, which discourages people who want to get better at building, because they'll make mistakes and have to redo commands a lot. imagine if you had more players, especially builders. you'd never be able to keep up with all the scary high-level commands flying past the screen.

you'll probably read people's complaints against you with pride. you celebrated the closure announcement, and you never miss a chance to broadcast your contempt against this community, so why volunteer to administrate it?

at least since the 28th, you've lasted more than 5 mins after logging in to say something racist, sexist, or to shame someone for being some way. the other brits at least find you amusing though, so you have that going for you.

i object.

↩  zeseryu i was hoping we wouldn’t need to invalidate votes, but many people don’t care to re-evaluate their hasty positions.

it doesn’t look like the votes on recent applications and appeals will be reset.

vouch this will help playercount

strong object, mainly due to immaturity.

please stop powerposting, and make sure your posts make sense before you post. i also don’t have faith that your accounts are secure.

the current config, and development for over a year, have been done with the assumption that we will remain online-mode. we’ve removed or disabled many of the safeguards that made offline-mode doable, and introduced features that would break in unexpected ways if we went offline-mode. TFM still has some stuff designed for offline-mode. heck it even still has the ptero integration.

player data is mostly UUID-based now, including plot ownership and essentials inventories. players would have to start fresh in a lot of ways.

this is a fun idea especially if it only lasts a week or two, but there is a very low chance the implementation would go smoothly.

originally neutral but i’m switching to an objection

object.

object.

by all means, make special arrangements for people for the last days of ryan’s ownership, but this is otherwise a terrible idea. if/when tf comes back from the dead we’ll have to live with the consequences of this decision.

i can’t wait to see this thread awaken every no-name alt ever registered.

↩  Telesphoreo 4 - A short bit about why you want to become a developer for TF.
TF is closing

not true, ryan is just leaving.

you care about the server, you're good at what you do, and ryan was the only thing keeping you from keeping up the effort.

in the off-chance that this isn't a shitpost, i vouch.

hub moderators are not in high demand. i'd like to revoke this application.

• unlike a month ago, the hub has more-than-sufficient moderation, and eyes always on it, especially on discord.
• i can provide more value to this server, and derive more enjoyment, putting in effort to improve it in other ways.
• the redeastwood situation had no involvement in my decision. tension remains unresolved but we are peaceful.

editing this in response to the change to a vote format.

i vouch. anzu was perfectly trustworthy and competent before, but they chose to resign when they noticed the server damaging their mental health. i respect that, and even more so i believe anzu is ready to come back in full force.

the server also needs more admins active during anzu's hours anyway. erin can't be expected to stay up all around the clock. well, actually, erin totally can be expected to do that, but we could still use more admins during that time slot.

↩ @'Ryan' my active times have been listed ever since i posted the thread

"I haven't done anything harmful to the server"

kmpk99 frequently spams, trolls, wastes people's time, and harasses others who have not provoked him. i can confirm each of these things with chat log evidence several times over. i was present for his first time returning to the server and he made his intentions clear right then. it's long past time to go.

vouch, holy smokes. please. this is several orders of magnitude less ugly than the dozen other options. and it has an import button? i just wanna know if the devs would miss any important jira features.

helpful user. i have not witnessed him being rude but i see he has little to no filter. i vouch over the based circumstances of the ban.

edit: HAHA that didn't last long, i deserved that, keep the vouch out of good faith
