As we all know, almost everyone has a life outside of minecraft.

As many of us also know, having administration powers over a world can be a damn near full time job.


This is why I am requesting for a third reviewer for Eagle's Pass. Looking over the applications, I see there hasn't been much activity from the Reviewers since March 27, just a little over a week ago. I'm not even sure if Kilmanan knows that he's a Reviewer, I haven't seen him on mumble in quite some time.

I've seen many good, respectful, dedicated players who really deserve access go unheard. Again, this is completely understandable; I know that Rev80 has many priories to juggle: a family of his own, a career, and just his own life in general.

We have a lot of room left in Eagle Pass, and are eager to see the town populate and flourish.

Edit:

Also, there are few players already being approved in forum, but waiting for permit ingame. Maybe there is lack of communication between reviewers and woot/Ozy. Maybe there is just need for more active admin / different time zone admin missing.

I know this is out of range of this particular thread, but its very important to note right here, right now.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the way I understand how the review porcess works is that Kilmanananananan and Rev only look over the apps, approve or deny the applicants, respond to the applications and then forward their approvals to woot/Ozy and then woot/Ozy whitelist those players. Whether Rev or Kil have been looking over those apps recently, I know not, nor do I know if woot/Ozy have been whitelisting those players. Would a third reviewer help expedite the process of getting new players into Eagle Pass? Maybe. I can see where the extra set of eyes may help and it may hurt, since the more hands that can go into the pot, the more confusion and miscommunication there may be.

From what I can see, it would seem that the population in our server has basically plataeued. I haven't seen too many new players joining the server like I had a month ago, so the slow down in new players could also be a contributing factor to the slow down in new residents to Eagle Pass. I could be wrong with that observation, as well, so don't hesitate to let me know.

several people have been waiting for a long time to get their whitelist, to the point where they just quit playing & go do something else

Haha, i moved from minetopia to EP then back :p,
I used to think its more of a lack in communication for the whitelist to be processed (since some are still waiting after a confirmation)
but it looks like the permits are also a week behind in being viewed so :confused:

I want to thank everyone for being patient.. For those still waiting for whitelisting after getting their approval, I have sent my list to both Ozy/woot. I think another reviewer is in order.. I really dig Kilmannan but I haven't seen/heard from him in a while (probably due to the times that our European players are on)... I just wanted to help Woot out and volunteered to get the applications managed ... Think of me like a clerk, helping the Boss out ... after going through the apps, I then send the in-game names to Woot and/or Ozy to add to the whitelist.. I know both those guys are really busy, and it is here that the wait begins.. For those feeling overly frustrated or angry at the speed at which the whitelisting happens, just do one thing.. Put yourself in their shoes.. Could you persue a university education, maintain a business, plus admin dozens of different game servers (each with their own problems) and STILL LEAD A LIFE? I totally give kudos to all the people behind the scenes at T9K.. This is all a learning experience for everyone.. players and admins... Once we get a good flow of information/communication going things will speed up.. Thanks to everyone who applied... Eagle Pass is looking better and better each day..

I think it's obvious we need another reviewer. I have not seen kilmannan online since he finished Queen Street station, and not even on european times. I understand that the "yes-lifers" (with jobs, kids and such) do not have alot of time to go though requests. I keep getting asked everyday when I log in from players wondering when they are going to get reviewed. I think it's time we let the "no-lifers" (that have alot of free time) do some good. Best thing would be if we had atleast 2 reviewers from either hemisphere, like 2 from America and 2 from Europe. That way we can get a better understanding of the players making applications by actually meeting them in-game and seeing their work.

If I understand you correctly Professor, you are up for the job. If so, I support you all the way.

I´m sorry, but i wrote to you ingame and got no answer. I was requesting if you have already whitelisted me so I can build, but I can´t. :(
I DO understand you are busy but why dont you read the ingame chat?

Hey, admin are busy all the time and do pay attention to chat, its just that occasionally they may miss a sentence or two since sometimes theres just so much going on. I'm sure it'll be fixed soon, there are many others having problems, we just have to be more patient and understanding like rev80 said

Maybe the lack of communication is not telling people that they have been approved. I would bet its almost impossible for Rev80 to contact every single person he passes.

Actually, he sends a message through mail congratulating that you're approved application

I'm a what what? News to me.

I'm away shooting / blowing things up. Back on Friday when I shall endeavour to find out exactly what the f**k I've been dicked with doing. :)

I did tell people I'd be away though. My Thai PA should have been dealing with all questions / queries.
