Oh...eeekkkkk....it is darkwater!!!!!

I really don't see the point of having another gm, given the low player count, but that is up the powers that be. I see no reason that would clearly disqualify him/her has a gm. I would only ask that they would be impartial in ALL decisions. You, tux9th, will have to ban a close friend as quickly as you would ban a complete stranger. If you are not willing to do that, then you need to have this thread close.

First: hey! DW long time not seeing you! I miss you

Second: I think we need to clarify something, the number of players is lower now you are right, but the active GMs are less too, you will see 2, tops 3 active GMs lately if we are in a lucky day, real life is demanding a lot of some of us now, so we do need help. A new GM if active is more than welcome among us at this moment.

Hey Darkwater I don't think that anyone can be that impartial that they judge people they like different than people they do not like or do not know. If I were to say that I could judge anyone just the same I think I would be lying. I think of GMs as Judges. Even judges who do that for a living who are payed to be impartial have personal conflicts and recuse from some cases. So I think GMs have the same rights. That's why there are more than one GM.
If I have a complicated decision to make I can always ask for advice from any other GM. So if I wasn't sure how to act on something I would ask someone who maybe isn't close to this person for advice.

Nevertheless I feel that I could punish anyone however close they are to me. I once reported a friend to Prsm who then perma banned him. It wasn't a very pleasant situation but I didn't know what else to do. Rules are rules and whoever breaks them is to be held responsible for his actions. I would act on that whoever I am dealing with.
I feel I am up for it otherwise I wouldn't have volunteered.

greets tux9th

Given that the player count is soo low and I think that 60 votes yes will be an impossible number for this community reach, 60 votes was hard enough with 3 times the players. I ask the admins to consider the above candidate as passed and move to final consideration. It is very unlikely, given the low player numbers that anyone could get 60 yes votes. He/she has 30 votes, that should be considered enough.

I totally agree with you.
I wasn't here when serious GM canditature has been made, but as i've read on forums, it seems that really more people voted. Now it seems there are really less players, and even less which vote. It think tux9th's number of votes should be considered as enough too, and that his nomination should go to the next step.

I voted for tux9th. From what I've seen and spoken to him about, he has his mind wrapped properly around the job. He answered all the questions I had for him in the manner i had hoped he or any candidate would.

tux9th for GM

I voted yes for tux9th, but I held off voting until I had a chance to see him doing something other than sitting in town. One of the things I liked about Prsm was that he was a nice player before being a GM. I find the same seems to be true of tux9th.

sorry chaslinux I was busy a lot lately you know christmas and stuff.
I'll be online a lot from now on.
I hope I'll see you around.

best regards tux9th

I could spam 20 times to vote, but true is that im too lazy to do it.
So i simply say YES YES YES ! ! ! !

Now reasons why:
-tux is friendly
-tux will help you if u ask him about it
-tux is in EU timezone
-tux is much online
-ehhmm tux have nice green wizhat

Thats it i hope i sounds resonable

I'll vote yes, I want to see the GHP's decision about this GM suggestion. It seems that an European GM is needed, and tux9th seems good enough to fill this job (from what has been said at least ^^).
With my vote, tux9th have 35 yes from the poll, +12votes from peoples which can't vote, but who wrote their aproval in here.

47 "yes" votes, is it enough in regard of the low player community present in the forum?

tux has helped me on numerous occasions, whether it's a quest, answering questions or leveling. I have seen him be helpful to many other players as well, I can't think of a reason why he/she shouldn't be a GM.

I am a player who is not active on forums, and therefore I cannot vote in the pool. However, I'd like to express my support for tux9th as a GM, because of his outstanding commitment to players community. It's not that he's helpful and kind, it's because he's always helpful and kind. The time he spends in-game both aiding others and generally taking care all for players to have a great time on the server convinces me he has everthing I am looking for in a GM.

Yes the game needs a GM on European TIME that other GMs are not online, not just a GM because he is European..keep this in mind.


regards,

I agree with Frost, Tux9th is a responsible player and knows the rules very well, he is also very active.

So yes, I vote for him.
