What you want to see happen

In the end what we say can end up meaning fuck all. Or what we can say will influence what happens here however little or however much it does. Non-The less I would love to hear the input from my fellow RZ GunZ users on what needs to be done. Lately everyone has been stirring up the pot saying that change needs to happen.


I'd simply like to have a thread for you all to state why you want change, what you want changed and how you think the best course of action to have that change roll out would be. Again it's all in the hands of the higher-ups but if nothing else we can all get on a level field of knowing how we all feel about the current situation going on here.


Who would you like to see gone as a mod, or given a strict warning to smarten up or pack your bags(if any) would you like to see more mods? less mods?

What new rules would you like imposed if any, do you have any suggestions just in general about the category? Just let it all out spill your guts onto the keyboard and see how much attention we attract here. (Keep it good. don't break any rules or get pushy)


Me personally? I wanna see Lambda gone. I'm fine with Styx and Stefan even if they don't ALWAYS get the job done right away, they get it done non the-less. In addition I'd love to see two mods added. One to take Lambdas place and one to pick up some of the left overs from Styx and Stefan combined. I won't give any opinions on who I would like to see as mod as I don't know who even wants to be a mod or how qualified they are, that's up to the higher-ups to decide and talk to them about if they are looked into.

I do like the whole member of the month idea. MONTH not week, that's far too often. Just my $0.02 on that though. I would love to see rules enforced more, and maybe even requiring users with <50 posts to view a specialty updated version of the forum rules for the GunZ Category(I'm pretty sure this is possible in vBulletin)

Just the minor tweaks to get this place back in line. How about you guys?

New moderators ftw.
/Vote for Dawson.

We can't expect moderators to give their entire time to the section, but this sections does need a little more activity from the moderators.
Lambda, I agree with. He's done a great job, but he is a little to inactive to be a moderator.

And of course as Phoenix said, Dawson for moderator!

:blushing: Jesus this looks bad lol. I swear I didn't set this thread up for this x.x I was kind of hoping to get more input that just dawson for mod guys.. like do you wanna see anything else changed?

lol'd pic

/Support Dawson =p

I wanted alot to change , First of all Moderators....I hardly see Lambda online unless there's an emulator in the development section. Next , I'll like to see that everyone works together like they did years ago to bring change back into the GunZ Development Section and make it like Christmas 09.

I would like to see better releases, people stop this flaming/harassment/trolling/etc., advertising to stop and these completely idiotic threads to be put to an end.
Oh and of course, an active, experienced moderator.

Dawson for moderator!

How does it make us 'nub'? Elaborate.

Please stay on topic guys, I wanna get some serious posts in here so the thread will get noticed.

And just to mention one last thing @ Pedobear: Someones level of knowledge in the gunz world should in no way label them as a 'nub' or make their input any less valid than yours, mine, Travis, anyones. They post in this category just like you or I. they have a share in posting their opinions too.

I want to see a complete emulator released.

That depends on the coder(s). GoGo has completely stopped for now. But that's not the kind of change that people are looking for...

@Others : The "changes" that you expect will happen only if there are new & active moderators who control this section regularly. An active moderator would set the trolls right, clear up the spam and not allow leeched material to last long. THAT is the change. What else could be the change? If it's adding new sections / rules, talk to the Super moderators / MentaL.

This is the actual condition of the GunZ Online section :
http://forum.ragezone.com/f245/happe...-forum-686750/

He first posted about this in the help section and we told him it wasn't the right place.
Then he goes to the Release section and posts the same thing.

I think that the moderators need to be... shuffled? I think both Killer and Styx do a great job, regardless of whether people like them or not, or their "skills" in GunZ. I can agree that we need to remove Lambda's modship, and then get another (or two) new mods, to help control all the nooby activity in the GunZ section.

However, we wouldn't need mods if it wern't for the masses of crap we get in here. I think we as members of the gunz section need to help out more in our own ways, such as pointing people to the newly created FAQ thread, which should solve most newbie problems.

I also agree with Your Master on the "more/better releases" topic, but think that's more of a minor problem, compared to the modless times we have, and the masses of annoying, repeated questions, and endless trolling/arguing.

KillerStefan is a very good mod he's an asset for this community.
I prefer member of the week, For a month is too long.

I also like the idea to have a section with a restriction, who is only available if you have enough postcount.

@Aristrum : Many of us help the new comers but they just don't get the point of surfing the sections patiently. All of them either ask us to set a server up for them or spam threads with problems which are most common ones and are already answered. No one has the patience.

This leads to their abusive nature, spam, etc.

@Phoenix: I know, but you ignore the ones who ask for stupid things (A whole server), and direct simple questions at the FAQ thread. As for the people who spam and get abusive, that's the reason for getting more mods.

Apparently, you don't like spaces either.

It's not dead - you can still do plently with it, and people still like playing, otherwise there would be no private servers, or no ijji players.

Your comment isn't really helpful anyway, we're talking about the state of this forum, not GunZ in general.

Just a note, i have requested my demod about 3 or 4 months ago because i have no time to moderate RZ but im still a moderator.

We all love you Lambda! It's not like we don't want you. It's just that you have important work to do so we need a new mod. :D

I thought this was about things we'd like to see released and worked on in the Gunz Development forums... But let's stay on topic.

Lambda out, Dawson in.

sry im bset mod evr here and i wunna c sum fairies and yoonicorns flyin out evy1s mouf so we can be best fwiends awight?

Yeah exactly, the old generation should put the right example and start things on their own.
The faq was a really good idea, would love to see more of those.

Thanks for your kind words!
If you are referring to the Level 2 section idea I had before I became moderator, I have to disappoint you.
I might generate a higher quality of releases but it would not be open to everyone.
And with the stuff released there, you'll see more leeching, more spam etc.

Yeah a section for higher post counts would only encourage 1 line replies to every single thread requesting help to try and get post count up, the spam would be ridiculous. You'd see plenty of replies like "Yeah I dunno but gl with your problem!" on EVERY thread by like 5-10 people... Deff a no go.


And uhhh. thanks guys :scared: I really didn't expect all those replies saying Dawson for mod. :P: Good to know the community likes me, even if nothing is done or I don't get mod it's nice to know I'm a respected member of the GunZ Online Category.

Post quality > post count.

It's nice to know this community is nicer than the one I'm involved in.


Community = One big old family, lets keep it like that :P:

Haha, not EVERYONE here is nice. More often than not I get yelled at when trying to help someone. It just seems that the nice ones are active in this community so they obviously would reply in this thread.

Well since I am good enough only at mapping, I am trying my best to bring some good quality maps for community eheh :):
And like Dell Honne said,
