Being LAT isn't good enough guys.. you have to understand that a simple LAT or even Head LAT can't make big decisions like changing the entire battle system, making changes to the economy, etc. Sure they can make shops, and the npc admin people can edit npcs, but out of all my time on 2k1 as staff, I wanted to make a new Q inventory menu, but when I was LAT I didn't feel I should be doing that even though I wanted to.
About Nyght almost owning all these servers.. it goes to show you most server owners (that have public servers online now) are complete idiots. They will give people ftp access that they barely know, and if you have minimal skill they will give you RC, etc. I'm sure anyone that can make a decent npc could get a job on most of the servers.. then work their way up to admin.
It's kind of depressing.

I agree being a LAT does not give me the creative influence I need especially when the owners on the 2 servers I work on are hardly on.
My engagements with Delteria, Andor, and Babylon were no fling type of things. I spent many long hours working on NPCs and levels for Delteria and had been playing it since Jan 2001. For Andor I was hire by Zorg when it was Bravo and slowly earned my way to my admin job. With Babylon I was the first and only LAT it had, besides LH, and I enjoyed it a lot.
