Pred Council Voting

Post by Skysoldier » 17 Aug 2018, 21:53

The staff has decided that we'll be moving forward with pred council ideas and will begin voting soon.

The general idea would be that I am taking discord pms and forum pms from people themselves who wants to be listed as candidate for the voting that will happen soon.

The general outline of what the new role will do:
- The council members will be a new role who might be elder or some rank in between elder and Youngblood.
- You're going to be expected to work on whitelists in a reasonable time, be active in the community.
- Expected to be able to talk with the staff team and the rest of the council when required.
- Probably talk about honor codes and things.

Extra details are going to be ironed out as the pred council idea progresses.

Well, at least this will help get some things in order.

Good luck to whoever makes a run for the job.

Oh I thought elders were just going to be an RP thing, not a 'staff' thing

Not a bad idea imo, whitelists must be bitch to go through

Maybe I might consider putting myself up for it.

Would be nice to discuss things related to predators and hopefully push for changes. I have a few in mind I'd like to work towards...

Hopefully we'll have a chance to express what we're looking to push for as the voting period begins.

Right, so I'll expand on what this exactly entitles and what the plans are. All predator players are going to vote up who they want to be part of this council from this list of people who have expressed the desire to be part of this group. The forum with the most votes are going to be given a seat in the predator council. Everyone is gonna get three votes for three different people, yourself excluded.

Pred Council will do the following:
  • Review whitelists and determine if they will be accepted or denied.
  • Representing the pred players and be the link between them and staff.
  • Helping to deal with honor code breaches and honor code revisions.
Pred council isn't just busy work and if you want to help bring better predator and solve problems with them then this is the best way to.
  • The pred council will be in direct contact with me. While I may be running certain changes past other head staff and devs, the majority of changes will be finalized by me. This will allow pred to be updated much faster and effectively.
  • They'll be the ones keeping the honor code up-to-date, simple, and fair by writing and proposing changes. While they'll represent the pred player base, they are going pick what will be going in and what won't.
  • Pred council players will receive a special in-game predator rank. While still under development, they will be a lite version of the current Elder rank. Though not above the honor code, they will have more freedom to help make rounds more interesting for other preds and the server as a whole.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask me and I'll try to clarify. Voting will begin soon and will run for a few days or until we get the majority of the votes down.
Ban Appeal Users: If I've lifted your perma ban and you're still unable to log onto the server, send me a forum PM regarding it and I'll work to get it fixed in ~24 hours.

Emerald Blood: CM's mommy and the only head staff who does anything. Even though I hate you all sometimes, I still love you.
