Admin Inactivity

If you were not on the forums for the last 2 months you were removed from admin
you are exempt from this if you made a time away
If it shows you have admin on the forums than you are good if not and would like to know why please pm me. Mistakes do happen and if you believe your admin being removed was a mistake please PM me.
I will be going through the servers talking to head admins about the removal of these admins as their inactivity is beyond unacceptable.

FINALLY someone is doing something about it. +11111, game on, I luv you 4ever and 5ever, etc.
Oh, and you might wanna do something about ranks on TTT. I was promoted to regular within 1 month and now it's been 6 months that I have been an admin on the server and I'm still regular, same with other people like Arth; even thought he's an admin since september and is amongst the most active admins on the server, he's still trial. Looks like whoever is in charge of promoting/demoting isn't doing their job.

Everything Admin related is the HEAD admin's job aka Towersheep talk to him. It can be hard because TTT has many admins and it can be hard to keep track.

Promoting/demoting in CG has always been very strange. Trial admin has always seemed liek a waste of time, and sometimes people forget they're trial or why, and don't find any reason to "promote" them. Idk what makes a player a vet either, I thought the time limit for being a vet was six months, but I'm not sure if everyone's whose played six months exactly deserves it.
Let's get a New CL and have him promote/depromote people and he talks to HA's about it. Or something.

Wholegrain doesn't have to worry about me being inactive because I spawn an admin abuse form almost every other week so I'm golden!

... Create a standard amount of time required for the ranks of admin and make a spreadsheet with the names of all active admins, the date they were added and the date that they should be promoted. Suddenly promoting admins is not a problem.

It happens that, like WG said, some admins may or may not deserve to be promoted. I don't see any that shouldn't at least in our TTT server, except the inactive ones.

^ Close to what I did to remember when to promote my admins. But instead of being fancy like Cor suggested, when an admin was added, I simply put in parenthesis when they should be promoted next to their name on the admin list. This way, even if I had forgotten to promote them, anyone could see and remind me. For me, it really worked. We should try it?

For admins who don't impress, their time should be suspended until they prove themselves as a good admin. :p

IF we can set up a time on server per week thing and if an admin doesn't meet that requrement he gets a warning, on the third week of inactivity without an timeaway forum the admin is either demoted or removed. Id say 18 hrs a week would be acceptible.

I only removed admins based on forum inactivity for the last 2 months
I am going to be working with head admins and cleaning the books of inactive admins on the servers next.
Also when the main cg web page goes up EVERYTHING about EVERYTHINg in CG will be listed including rank requirements rules protocol tutorials etc.....

Ok. If you are an Admin on ANY server, and have had the length of time required to be Vet, and have NOT brought it to the attention of the Head Admin for that server, then why should you be automatically given Vet?
Not pointing out you should be Vet Admin smacks of not caring. IMHO.
Oh, and if you are not dropping by the forum and logging in, you might miss important Admin related info, which means you could make mistakes as an Admin. Rare, but it can occur. In the future, you WILL be missing important info, by not logging into the forum.

Well, live I've said, it's still a bit confusing how the ranking system works on CG. But that I've already said in my first post. But mostly that when I was promoted, I didn't have to ask Tower (or whoever promoted me, not sure who was) to do so. And yes, we (at least me and the admins I talked to) do care about the community. I thought we made it pretty clear when we were active on the forums and on the respective servers.
After all, I don't think it's our job to keep bothering Tower whenever we feel like we should be promoted.
