How does one become an admin...what qualities do u guys typically look for? Seems like it has pros and cons: you can get rid of glitchers and troublemakers, but you have to deal with whiners and false complaints of abuse...

An invite is sent out from the support team and discussion with the would-be admin is made to determine if they want to become one.

Regards,

Kren

Yeah, you could go by Kren's answer. But the reality is that you must give up all your worldly possessions, travel to Tibet, spend seven years in isolation at a monastery, taking a vow of silence. Only after deep meditation and gaining a profound understanding to the meaning of life, you "might" be considered.

Bring donuts. The other monks won't haze you then.

It was me...I figured I am taking classes for a degree in Criminal Justice so I might as well practice eating donuts. :whistling:

You watch this video:

And then refrain from talking about getting admin.

Rule 1 of Admin: You don't talk about Admin

Rule 2: Obey Rule 1

Rule 3: There is no rule 3.

Just follow the server rules, be honest, and report troublemakers if the admins don't see them.
If the admins find you to be a trustworthy player that follows the rules etc your name may be brought up for discussion

After a discussion a vote may follow after which if agreed on you will be asked if you wish to become an admin.
It has advantages and disadvantages, sure you can get rid of troublemakers yourself, but every time a flamewars starts you have to pause your game to pull those whining players away from each other.

Your grandfathered in, Koko. Better bring donuts just to be safe.
