Development staff
 

Zone has 2 development staff. I think we need more. If you do please post. Vulcan does an ok job but even he can't do much since he can't upload. here are some quotes of the players. Yes I got their permission to post what they said. They are all p2p except one.I got lots of quotes so you could see that no one said no.

Yes, we need more development staff but, this has been said a bunch of times and nothing has been done about it so this might not work either.

but if we put it here and converse on how much it is needed stefan and/or vulcan may take notice and possibly do it.

SHOUT IT TO THE WORLD! ZONE NEEDS STAFF!

Hmm.. Can i propose something to Stefan and/or Vulcan?.. Zone needs staff, as youve see. I suggest that in the next two weeks Stefan and Vulcan try to be online as much as possible, and interview many people willing to become staff. This would be better than bringing in staff from other servers because people wouldn't know what zone needs. I suggest interviewing the 'oldbys' really. Its obvouse the people who have played zone more know what to do more, e.g "Huwa and Sayain"..

I say send an e-mail to unixmad and pm stefan. I was going to ask stefan about it today but he logged whenI said may I ask you a question

I think that means the answer was "No" then xD.. No offense to all staff, and yes. I know you are often buissy.. But, sometimes staff can be very ignorent when it comes to somone asking them questions and such.. Erm, well i know your buissy alot, but if you did hire more staff then you could be as ignorent as your like because the players would direct there questions to the other, less buissy staff. Or.. Just hire (FAQ)

No ned for faq's just have helpful players. Just hire development staff

AGREED! HERE HERE!.. Im a little drunk xD... New staff plzzz!!!!

Name someone who can develop, that wishes to help out zone and has an IQ over 3.

haha...i'm still here...i'd wish huwa would come back though D:

i dont see stefan givin me any rights though. hes picky. thats why only vulcan huwa have it/had it. don't really matter though. right now i gotta work with ms paint...so im gonna go try to make something new to give the staff members something to do...even though i know theres like 10+ gfx i've done that could still be used...stefan says he has alot of gfx, just hasn't gotten around to em yet...

Believe it or not i fit them standerds.. Or my IQ might just be on 3.. I dont know :P

I would be glad to help out, I can develop, and I guarantee my IQ sits safely over 3.

All the problems people have pointed out before are reasons why no one will be able to come in and develop for you guys though.

I think you got it down the best thing you can do is keep asking and hope someone takes notice.

And what exactly would be expected of me? How would I take action on this situation? I am not able to.

Well, Dev staff we do need. Not to sound cokcy, but I'm doing fine dealing with hackers/glitchers myself. A jail may help a little though... Crono and I interchange with the event hostings so the events are covered. But Dev staff is a must. I can't believe how well Zone manages with Stefan and Vulcan alone. But this thread misleads Vulcan a little. He doesn't have every right there is. His powers are limited.

duh. ;)

development team isn't really needed. we got/had;

Vulcan - Levels/GANIs/Scripting (a little?)
Huwajux - Levels/GANIs/Scripting (maybe?)
Stefan - Scripting/Sounds (i think?)
Me - Gfx :D

that is a dev team...its just that stefan is always busy, and doesnt really get a chance to add new things...

It depends on what part. I could even help out zone if I could figure out how to stop making tile errors. The iq part though Im not sure. Im in the negatives.
What would be expected of you? Possibly upload the work they give you? You could by asking stefan to take a chance. I understand that you have very strict guidlines and very little power. OH and vulcan you might have to deal with support tickets a little more often rather than letting them die of old age like my last 2 have.
one problem with that. Huwajux is no longer around to do any of that. Vulcan has limited power. Stefan is rarely on and avoids players at all costs to my experince. So really only you and vulcan are there. I don't know who would but if they asked them might get it.

Hey as i said, i know atleast 5 players including myself that are ready, willing and capable of undertaking the task of developing zone.
Sayian and Huwa were like godsends to the players of zone with all there hard work and stuff, but they couldn't do all the tasks alone. Sayain could probly cover all GFX, maybe get 1 or 2 people to do more i dunno? Scripters seemed to be coverd, we need LATs bad tho. Ive played zone for a couple years at the most. I know what people want and i know just how to make it.

can you post who they are and what they would do?

Sure.

Me (Jo Xanadu) - Good LAT and A few skills in Scripting

Jin - Same skills as me acept a better Scripter

Riley - Great LAT, Good Scripter, Good GFX

You (SuperNanny) - Good LAT skills from what ive heard

Lishy - Great scripting skills

whos said im a good lat? I make 10 billion tile errors per minute

Heh, your still willing.. The point is. We need staff that will listen to peoples ideas. No offense.. actually, yea i do mean to offend. Vulcan ignores anyone he feels like, pretends that zone isnt even there, even tho hes probly the only staff that could actually improve zone.

Now we have Huwa back, <3 (Dont know how long, me hopes very long) We might be able to get something done.

huwajux=god in a leser form that helps graal=zone lives! :D

Hi ho! Hmm, good staff are everywhere. Just finding ones willing to work for Zone is the hard part. Vulcan and I are overestimated by Zone players in the rights department. Cold hard facts here.

I can develope easily for Zone now with an RC but I still need Stefan's permission to actually upload. Vulcan doesn't have any upload rights either, he only has banning, disconnecting and warping rights.

I am trying so much to help hire, but Stefan's trust for me (and Vulcan) seems to be limited. I will try.

I will certainly mention this post and the entire thread to Stefan when I have the chance.

What, do you guys think YOU can be development staff? LOL, Sayian is the only one that is capable of being a developer-staff kind of person ohwait he already is.

You people don't know the first thing about being staff, let alone development. LOL U NED MORE DEVELOPEMNT STAFF

orly? explain to me.

that last time a map was added was february. If someone can make a map of all gras I can spice it up with plenty of objects. I haven't seen anyone else do anything ofr zone. We do need development staff since none of teh current staff except for maybe huwa and stefan can do anything.

On this Issue, I see your point, More Admins would be usefull, And if we have more Admins, We would draw more Players, Not just for Trying to become a Admin, But because of New Levels. Also, If we have more Admin, Problems can be squared Away, Freeing Time of other Admins. Finally, We, If we get Stefan's Permission, He Can assign an Uploader. Stefan, Can tell The Uploader Guidlines and Rules/Plocies for uploading. The Uploader is a Major Issue!

Uploader Benefiets:
-New Heads,Bodies,Arms,Legs. (If people make them.)
-GFX, New Weapons, Could be worked on, At a more Efficeint Rate.
-Uploader, Could also act as FAQ, DEV Admin not Bothered by pesky Questions, That waste their time.

Sincerely,
Shadow

I argee with a majority of what you said but who woudl uploader be? Vulcan? or?

I dont know, It would be whoever Stefan see's Fit to do so, Then he will give them, Guidlines/Policy And Rules.

Sincerely,
Shadow

Sayian can make plenty.

Don't need a lot more weapons. Specially with Christmas, plenty of time.

Not needed at all.

whos going to lat for zone so we get new maps then crono? You? If you can't suggest someone or give a good idea tell why at least! Yes needed!

Who said anything about new maps? Even if new maps are made, Vulcan, Stefan, Huwajux, even me are all fully capable of producing them @ decent-good quality.

Yea but when was the last time that happend? With more staff the working more maps can be made quicker, attracting more players, making zone a more happy place. You underestimate the skills of some people, some have got very good skills in the development area. When you havnt really seen there work who are you to judge?

New maps aren't needed. When's the last time it happened? Vulcan did the gwars map.

Why so incoherent?

Ah but many would disagree. I see where your coming from but alot of people desire somewhere new to play and yes, i do remember GWs being the last thing that was created, and i also remember it being a BIG success. It attracted alot more people and lots of people still play on it today. I wouldn't mind being staff, id love to help people out, but even if i wasn't staff id still like to post new maps :D. It would be cool to see something i created on a gold server.

The gwars map is ok. Thats all Ill say but it has so many glitches its not worth it.
I stil desire something new. I just want a new planet that stands out from the rest that is lots of fun.

yes the Gwers mpa is OK but there needs to be a new dropship,Level glitchs, oh and fix when u go to a tele and die when trying to go though a tele u get stuck Fix that it its really annyoing


Hmm maybe the mission planet that was planned like 4-5 years ago?

the staff were on like a lot today lmao

scsary thoughts. How about they fix the no team glitch so I don't kill all 5 people on my team before the other team gets there? There just needs to be more development.
