    Hello, so recently I have thought of this new idea for the VGamers administrator system. Basically it allows to filter out any “bad” administrators, leaving only skilled and good ones, which thus will improve the general “quality” of administrators here at VGamers. So without further to do, here it is:


    Moderators:


    This is an idea which I believe will be the first “filter: when deciding whether this will make a good admin or not in the future. Applying for moderator is very simple and easy, but moderators have limited commands, maybe the only one they can have is the “Kick Player” one. This step will show the responsibilty of a moderator and may reveal things in which the moderator would need more training if they want to apply for administrator. An example application for moderator:


    HLStats/GameME Page:


    Which server(s) would you like to moderate on:


    Have you been moderator before?:


    Time you usually connect/play (Include Time Zone):


    Playing time on server:


    Age:


    Why do you want to be moderator?


    Did you read and understand the moderator guidelines?




    As you can see, very basic. Not much requirements, but it is a good way of filtering and leaving in the good moderators who are responsible and helpful.



    Administrators:


    Once a player has applied for moderator he/she now has the option to apply for administrator. The system I came up for administrators is a bit too complex, but it is really useful in my opinion. Here is the updated administrator application:



    HLStats/GameMe Page:


    Age:


    Have you been administrator before? If so where?:


    What are your strengths, what are your weaknesses?:


    How would you handle a group of angry players?:


    How would you permanently Mute AND Gag your SteamID for Insulting Staff?:


    Which server(s) would you like to be administrator on?:


    Can you donate the REQUIRED $10.00 dollars each month for a total (6) months?:


    Have you thoroughly read and understand the admin guidelines linked above?:


    Why do you want to become an admin?:



    As you can see, I added more things to the application so staff would know more about the person, in what areas do they need training and will most likely give a better idea as to should this player become administrator or not.



    Mentoring:


    This idea is just like setting an administrator up in TS3, but it is a bit different. Known and Trusted staff may become mentors, by applying for mentor (I do not have much ideas for a mentor application so I cannot post anything, sorry) When accepted mentors will train new administrators, by giving them questionnaires about commands and general rules. Once mentors feel like their student is fully trained they redirect him to the even more important staff (Like Woody or Gotcha) which then could give them a final “test”.


    To be honest I think this complex system will really improve the administrator quality as I said before, but of course it is up to the owners to decide if my idea is good enough, but hopefully it at least gets looked over as a possibility.
