Author | LWM staff |
Below is listed the current "staff" of lwm in their appropriate clan. Things to note: the inactivity of most (which is not totally new), the doubling up of many in different clans (listed as 'as above', and yet many still inactive), and also it should be mentioned that even if it says 'Active' next to one's name that doesn't mean they are active in their 'duties', just that they are signing into the game still.

Furthermore, the leader/recruitor for nearly all of these clans (i believe i checked them all) is inactive (except Sven91 in forums). Thereby eliminating new staff members for at least some time.
I guess what I'm saying is:
let chaos reign |
Project aborted, server shut down!
It's a matter of time. I'm sorry for those like you Skunder. You did an excellent job. |
Would be easier to list as:

** in post 1 you list Dan-Panic as being inactive since this morning? misself is still frequently in chat but not sure if still moderating or not?
Most of the areas are still covered with the exception of "juries" who investigate cheats who are currently on hold from doing this while Arctic is not around. |
Just a note:
#10 members are called Moderators.
#266 members are called Sages
#373 members are called Keepers. |
tears.. |

what's the difference between the 3 groups? |
Maybe they should asign some trusted people as recruiters for all groups as they did with Sven91 for Moderators. |
@3. doesn't necessarily mean shutdown. This has happened repeatedly since the beginning. It does however look bleak overall when the REASONS for these players going inactive is taken into consideration. Little more will be said about that by me here.
@4. I wasn't going for 'easy' I was going for thorough. And Dan-panic = inactive as per actual modding (just a state of fact)
@7. Each holds a different duty. #10 is for the majority of forums, whereas #266 is just for the Query Forum, and #373 is for the complaints section. You can do some checking up on your own.

@8. they did. but those trusted people left/resigned/quit/stopped playing because of some ... situations which arose behind the scenes (myself included). |
Yea. Likely, some of most active and active forum users should have a chance to be forum-admin or something. |
@10.
Hmmm, let's say that with 100% certainty no one from this game will BECOME an admin. Admin = developers and the people behind the curtain running (sort of) things in lwm. They, I assure you, are not recruiting people from the common community.
As for the rest of this statement, please see post 2. There needs to be an ACTIVE person to recruit someone to the clan. |
There is always a turn over of official positions in all games.
Due to recent lack of admin attention our official clan members who cant or wont do their jobs properly have not been replaced. Hopefully admins will address this shortly. I know they have already been asked by a few people.
In the meantime. We still have people in the moderation positions doing what needs to be done.
It seems to be just cheats who are not being dealt with at the moment and with the nature of their playing the evidence will still be there when admins get on top of this again and it only takes a few minutes to fine and/or block a whole ring of them. |
thanks for the links Skunder - i couldnt find them :) |
Continue putting out those imaginary fires DiN. The rest of us are just having a conversation about some information that I found interesting. You know, you don't ALWAYS have to say/do the complete OPPOSITE of what I say.
However, more interesting is the comment:
official clan members who cant or wont do their jobs properly and the reasons for these clan members choosing to step down or otherwise not do their job. It stems from the very thing you mentioned before this quote:
Due to recent lack of admin attention and of course their (admins) complete apathy towards what many of the people in the 'official' positions felt needed to be done. Heck in some situations they did the exact opposite.
But overall I guess what I want to say is, let us talk openly to educate some of the players (who apparently don't know the difference between mods and sages for example) without you acting like, hmm IDK, like some moderator trying to pull the wool over everyone's eyes which you constantly complain and speculate that the mods are doing. Thank you. |

I have no idea what fires you are talking about.
their (admins) complete apathy towards what many of the people in the 'official' positions felt needed to be done. Heck in some situations they did the exact opposite.
As to the admins not doing what "offical" players tell them to do? Why would they? This is their game and the official clans are created to perform the duties THEY wish done in the manner THEY wish them done. This is right and as it should be.
But overall I guess what I want to say is, let us talk openly to educate some of the players (who apparently don't know the difference between mods and sages for example) without you acting like, hmm IDK, like some moderator trying to pull the wool over everyone's eyes which you constantly complain and speculate that the mods are doing. Thank you.
I also dont know what you mean by this?
- I am not a moderator and have never claimed to be?
- I am talking "openly" in the thread which you created for whatever personal reason to discuss these things?
- How have I attempted to pull the wool over anyone's eyes? Nothing I have said above is "getting at" anyone? None of it is incorrect? What parts say "the opposite" of what you are saying?
If you feel I am personally attacking you then I apologise for this but dont really understand how you reach this opinion from my posts? |
@11.
Well, where do admins then come from? I've used to think that this game was made by HMM-fans, but i don't have any other idea about them.... |
The admins are a group of russian friends and programmers who created the game.
Arctic is a friend of theirs who while not one of them has been given additional powers and responsibilities so is in effect the only assistant admin |
#9 Asign others then. |
@18. ha ha
I do not have that power, specifically because I am no longer a moderator/sage/Empirical court member/etc etc. I myself resigned because...
The point I was making is that the only people who CAN ASSIGN new people (except sven91) are MIA. Basically, the problem is cyclic. |
looks like a fun topic, lots of conversations going on, but there are alot of misunderstandings going on around here, so maybe Skunder and DiN should get the point of this topic sorted out 1st before they are really talking about 2 very different things
anyway... what i was gonna say in the 1st place was this.
Skunder, why did you find this information interesting? it isn't a trick question or starting an argument, i am just genuinely curious :)
was it you wanted to simply bring this to every bodies attention? or did you have something far more sinister in mind? *evil music starts to play* |
