Forum:Merge Staff

Forums: Index > The World that Never was > Merge Staff

So, DE and I discussed it on the IRC, and we realized that no one's really figured out who'll be "staffing" the merge process. Below is our list of ideas. Whether any of these remain permanent or not should be discussed later.

• Bureaucrats
  • KrytenKoro
  • Neumannz
  • Dark-EnigmaXIII
  • Soxra
  • maggosh
• Administrators
  • TroisNyxEtienne
  • NinjaSheik
  • LevL
  • ShardofTruth
  • Chitalian8
  • The_Inexistent
  • Erry
• Moderators/ Artists
  • FinalRest
  • RoxasXIIILK
  • KyoWolfe
  • As If!
  • LegendAqua
  • UnknownChaser
  • CaelumLucisCaliga

So, here we are. Short, simple, and to the point. Discuss *hand gesture*

Chitalian8 Say... — Only by allowing strangers in can we find new ways to be ourselves. Life's little crossroads are often as simple as the pull of a trigger. — 23:18, 8 January 2012 (UTC) Kryten explicitly expressed that he wished not to become a 'crat. Although, if we want 2 'crats from each former site, I can't really think of anyone else who would fit the bill.

SilverCrono Well, I can tell who you are. — "Looks like you're prepared." "What is with you and picking up stray puppies?" — 01:07, 9 January 2012 (UTC) When you say "staffing the merge", does this mean staff members in charge of making sure the merge goes smoothly, or are these the permanent staff after the merge is finished?

maggosh The steel is forged... — "Souls as far as the eye can see..." "If you want light to rule over all, then you must rid the world of everything else." My name seems conspicuously absent.

@Crono - "Whether any of these remain permanent or not should be discussed later."

@maggosh - Feel free to add yourself if you feel you'll be able to participate.

Not sure where I fall on this. It is for the following that I personally won't add my name to the list. Although inactive, I do stop by occasionally and do some editing. However, I am most definitely not as active both IRC, and editing/Wiki wise as a staff member should be. I know I probably won't be able to participate with the merging as much either. So, you guys decide. I'm all for staying as an admin, moderator, etc. if you guys see it fit. If not, I understand. Regardless, I respect the decision. Thanks.--Xion4ever 00:11, 10 January 2012 (UTC)

LightRoxas BOOP! — A Hero has Fallen I can't believe I miss bald jokes I very much agree with the majority of this list, especially the positions of T_I and As If and promotion of Erry. That being said, do we know that all the people on the staff list are planning on being over here and not just sticking at the fansite? Oh, and yeah, Kryten doesn't wanna be a 'crat (as already stated), but I think he definitely fits the job well. As for Xion, that's the tough battle we have, and that really includes Lego and ENX as well. They still contribute and help us out a lot, but aren't always entirely as active as they want to be, or for that matter, as several others on this list. By keeping them on staff, it becomes almost too big... so that's a difficult decision we need to make..

Eternal Nothingness XIII - This heart belongs again to darkness. All worlds begin in darkness, and all so end. The heart is no different. Darkness sprouts within it—it grows, consumes it. Such is its nature. In the end, every heart returns to the darkness whence it came. TALK - Your body submits, your heart succumbs—so why does your mind resist? — 21:29, 10 January 2012 (UTC) My opinion on this still has not changed: I see no reason to have so many b-crats. They're just extra administrators with the ability to promote new mods/admins as necessary. I still like my idea of taking one from each Wiki better than having five or six. For those so adamant to put me on the "Inactive" list, I'll only say this once: I check this Wiki every day, and I will revert or change something if it needs to be done. Otherwise, there's nothing for me to be a part of here;I've been reduced to gnome-status. This Wiki has gotten so chaotic over the past month that I'm simply lost/confused, NOT inactive. I said the new KH3D information would lead to my resumed activity, and I still stand by that, just as soon as all this "merging" nonsense subsides.

KrytenKoro - "Give a man a fire and he's warm for the day. But set fire to him and he's warm for the rest of his life." TALK - I said I was willing to refuse bcrat if we all agreed to new elections.

Just trying to bring some life to this forum. We need more input on what to do about staff members.--Dark-EnigmaXIII 09:56, 22 January 2012 (UTC)

KrytenKoro - "I'm the doctor, I'm the patient. Don't forget that - it's important! If you love me like I love me, everybody will be sorry." TALK - Okay, ideas: Any staff member who has not made let's say ten edits in the last month should be moved to inactive. REMINDER: INACTIVE DOES NOT MEAN THAT YOUR POWERS HAVE BEEN REVOKED, unless you ask for them to be, or unless the community asks for them to be. We should put it up to a vote to end this Saturday as to whether we merge the staff or run new elections. Merging staff: Same rules as above, we should not grant staff powers to anyone who's been doing nothing for over a month (honestly, we should discuss whether that should be some sort of general rule: if you are going to be unavailable, you need to make way for someone else and earn your spot back when you return.) New elections: Given the situation with KH3D, and the general need for revamps and people to lead projects, I would say we need at least fourteen admin or above editors. I would say we don't need more than three bcrats, given that the only need for more than one is to prevent abuse or downtime, but I'm not averse to five or more. But I've not been keeping up with the discussions on the IRC and forums, so if you guys had already decided on a merge than just give me the names and we can be done with this tonight.
