Open Admin Postions
« on: September 12, 2019, 06:18:36 AM »
Short and sweet: 09 and I have no longer have interest in being a part of the active administration are probably gonna join hoppin in the river 

If you want to step up, then now's your time. I've asked numerous people who are well respected and upstanding members of the community and they've all said no. y'all love to contribute opinions on where this site should be heading, so now's you're chance lead it there yourself. also, 09 and I will probably remain on temporarily to assist with the basics of editing the forum until the new admin/s can get the hang of things (or you can just ping one of us when you want stuff done, that'll probably be easier for everyone)

If nobody suitable wants to take the positions, then we'll probably just give it to kix since he was the only one who said yes ( not that he was given a serious offer)

I'm honestly tempted, but work keeps me busy for 12 hours a day and I don't know whether I'd be able to pay the site enough attention.

...I dunno how much attention you guys were paying in the first place, mind you  :really_makes_you_think:

Personally, I don't believe in this current landscape there is a suitable Admin they can or would run this site. Out of the ones currently who've responded. F1 seems the best fit, but like he mentioned, his potential time for the site is limited

The issue is the people who have the time to run things are probably the exact people we don't want running things.

What sort or time commitments are involved? I've only ever administrated communities that are fairly hands off and  I feel like GTM isn't quite like that.

I think this applies for most online community admin applications in general. The kind of person who volunteers to give their free time to moderate the community is probably the kind of person you don't want to be giving any power. See: all of Reddit

I can. I’m on here almost all the time, so availability isn’t an issue. I’m planning on getting involved in RA2, as I’ve only been doing RR2 at the moment. I love this community, and I want to see it thrive. If I get this position, I’m gonna do what I can to bring GTM back to its hay day.

What sort of time commitments are involved?

This is what I meant by "I dunno how much attention you guys were paying", I just worded it horribly. I have an hour in the morning, an hour at lunch, 3 hours or so at night, and all day Saturday and Sunday. If that's enough time in which to admin the site, then I can at least give it a go. It doesn't seem like much needs doing around here, but obviously I'm not privy to everything going on behind the scenes.

Tbh if I had to chose anyone even if they wanted to or not robo, Hop and F1 would be the best admins
Orc is also a good idea but I would prefer those 3 guys since they're experienced, pretty epic guys and in the case of robo at least are pretty active and do help others out

I don't think code silver, code red or cringe should be admin from those who have shown interest (sorry boys)

How many admins did you guys go through the past few years? 4 at least?

I'm well past my posting days. Hope who runs it steers it for a few years more.

My only suggestion would be Pwn given that he's semi active, the boomers have respect for him, but unlike the boomers I think he's actually played the game within the last year (Could be wrong though). Other than that though I'm drawing a blank. Pretty much everyone left on the site is either some out of touch boomer who only shows up to complain in the annual GTM self-reflection thread, a zoomer, or not interested in the responsibility of administrating (which is pretty understandable considering the job is basically thankless, while also being the go-to person to blame when there are issues)
