Title: Nominate someone for Game OP for PVP
Post by: Vitoc on October 10, 2015, 11:49:19 AM
Please post the user's name followed by why you think they'd make a good game op.  We'll have a followup poll next week.

This thread is only for PVP.  A separate thread was created for Non-PVP.

I nominate myself.

I've been around on MajorMUD and GreaterMUD for quite a few years and have become a bit bored by the stock game. I understand GMUD pretty well and would be able to check in regularly. Having been a victim of sysop cheating in the past, I would maintain full impartiality for the benefit of everyone who plays.

I'd also be open to the job on PvE.

I, too, also nominate myself.

For, both realms, or just PVP. It does not matter to me.  You all know me as Will.  I'm always at home currently, so attendance is not a problem.  Plus, I know most of you from in game already.  I could also help with coding or trying to locate bugs etc to relay to Vitoc to fix.  Whether they are fixed or not, Well, that's in Vitoc's control.  I would, however, like to play the game as well.  According to the all-knowing and wise Bifagliar. We already abuse TwoGirlz to our advantage anyways.  LOL.  We will miss you Gardner.

It doesn't exactly seem like you're going to be impartial when you literally bring up a grievance you have with another player in your nomination post. /autodisqualify

Post by: Hydroponic on October 10, 2015, 05:44:17 PM
I nominate myself (Hydro) I'm at Keys most of the time I just remain quiet. I've always been fair and never exploited any bugs. I'm not looking to be a top competitor I just enjoy playing. I'd rather help keep GMUD fun then see it go to shit and quit playing all together.

Well, this is like when they tried to nominate a pirate king in Pirates of the Caribbean, everyone voted for themselves.  So, in the spirit of Captain Jack Sparrow, I nominate Elizabeth Swan....but since she isn't playing here, I second the nomination for Coarse Horse.  I will also return to playing here once a fair and impartial OP has been appointed and a reset accomplished.  This push is completely out of hand with dupes!
Title: withdraw my name!!
Post by: cuffsandstuph on October 10, 2015, 08:14:33 PM
i know absolutely NOTHING about coding, programming, or detecting bugs. i do not have the capacity to learn that.
Title: Re: Nominate someone for Game OP for PVP
Post by: spastic on October 10, 2015, 10:55:37 PM
I too nominate myself, Arrogant. Because I dont really like anyone so i have no friends to help, Im against bugs and cheating, and i basically stopped playing anyway and would be happy to quit and see the game become more fun for players.
Title: Re: Nominate someone for Game OP for PVP
Post by: Efa on October 11, 2015, 06:50:18 AM
I would like to nominate myself, Efa KingOfPVP for the position of Game OP. I have been retired from the game for several years and do not favor any player or group. I have shown myself to be fair, level-headed and reasonable when dealing with the player base and have in turn earned both their respect and admiration.

Furthermore I would like to take somewhat of a libertarian approach to moderating the game in that most free speech should be allowed (at least in the PVP realm), with free expression of thoughts and ideas from the players. For the players themselves, I will bring hope and change or we can mostly just watch cool youtube videos which I will post in chat.

I look forward to being your new MudOp and remember Vote for Efa 2015!

Sincerely,
Efa KingOfPVP
Title: I'm withdrawing my name from the running
Post by: Greater on October 11, 2015, 07:39:38 AM
Since I'm removing myself, I'll go ahead and nominate Hydroponic for PvP mudop.

I think both he and Lake would be  mudops for PvP, but Hydro probably has a little more time.

I too nominate Efa KingOfPvp.  Lets make history for the first African American mudop since the rise of GreaterMud.  Obama 2.0, Vote for Efa!

Post by: jim gilmore on October 11, 2015, 02:31:31 PM
i'd nominate my self but really do not understand the game from any point but playing it. I do not myself pvp and would not have anything to gain from cheating. So it would be easy to be impartial....

Post by: y2duhh on October 11, 2015, 11:58:53 PM
lol this is hilarious, Vitoc best of luck but your absolute best bet is to take someone from nonpvp who is casual and make them PVP mudop. It looks like Hydro has the most nomination besides Efa and Hydro will 100% do small little cheats to help his friends, I played with hydro for over a decade and he is absolutely untrustworthy in that kind of position.  If you pick the wrong person here you are going to lose more of the user base than you already have so I would tread careful.

I am going to withdraw as well.  I don't know how much time is required to be a good Op, but I doubt I have enough time.  I agree that Hydro would be a good choice. 

I also nominate Winterhawk for PVP Op.  I think that he has all of the characteristics needed and the knowledge to do a great job.

I'm doing the best I can with what I've got.  Put yourself in my shoes for a minute.  If I don't ask the majority and run nominations and polls like this I'm going to piss people off as well.

I'm stuck in a no-win situation.
Title: Re: Nominate someone for Game OP for PVP
Post by: RPenton on October 12, 2015, 03:13:26 PM
I would like to nominate DeathCow.

And in case he's not available, then myself. Nobody knows who I am and I am therefore totally impartial to the squabbles that make up the PVP realm's daily dose of dramatic soap opera revelry.

Also I regularly get drunk and am told I am quite amusing when I am in such a state of inebriation. I'm not sure what that has to do with MUDding but it's got to count for character, right? I would offer to buy free beers for everyone but there's several problems with that. 1) I'm a cheap bastard and I'm not mailing it to you because it costs too much money. 2) I don't actually like any of you enough to do that. 3) It may be seen as bribery of a sort. 4) I usually drink it all before I get a chance to give it away anyhow. 5) Burp.

I don't know where I'm going with this. So I would just like to thank the academy, the sysop, my lord and savior Robot Zombie Jesus "Hernandez" Christ, and that weird ball of fungus growing in the corner of my bathroom that has somehow gained enough sentience to speak to me when I take my morning dump. It convinced me to put forth my nomination.

The alternative is what we currently have on the pvp realm: Regular bug abuse with no repercussions, rampant illegal dupes, and jerks who like to make racist character names like Nig**r, and then make chars named WhiteMan to kill them and spam gossip with the death announcements.

As far as Duhh, here are some of his most clever forum posts:

Nice Red Herring Coarse, but you gotta know you are the least credible mudder around. Even Vitoc knows that.

Hydro, how could I be mad about something I wasn't aware of or cared about, I am just telling truths if you were op you would cheat you are not trustworthy.

Vitoc, you actually can win if you do this right and you can probable get some old players back into the game.  Gardner pushed away a lot of people and if you find an op(s) who is unbiased and will police the realm correctly you may see some people return, best of luck.  Might i suggest  you either put multiple ops for some checks and balances and maybe broadcast every op command over gossips for a time so people understand whats going on when the new op is doing stuff.

Oh please, you quit because your team got it's face pounded in at the start of this reset.

You claim Gardner pushed people away, but this is the real red herring. Gardner helped you and your team more than you deserved; One prime example is how you cried to him after I max stacked Arly and we killed your group in WF last push. He cleared the entire city ERRONEOUSLY for you and admitted as much once he realized how the stacking was done.

Gardner wasn't perfect, but he was patient with your brand of asshattery beyond what anyone would expect of him. You've hated Gardner since he legitimately banned you for constantly berating him and being a general douchebag, just like you attempt to do to everyone who gets the better of you in the game. This place will get a better op by just ignoring everything you say. The less you like it, the better off GMUD will be.

Post by: y2duhh on October 13, 2015, 09:17:13 AM
Haha i wasnt referring to myself little fella, I quit because
Every time I went to lead something I got bored and went afk I have no interest returning anytime soon and Gardner did nothing to me push me away, I could manipulate Gardner to do just about anything for me. Coarse I would love to sit in one of your therapy sessions to listen about what your dad and peers did to make you such a bitter uncharismatic know it all who knows nothing, you must of had a tough time growing up. I did fine at the start of the reset I just have no interest in pvping or questing or scripting so that kind of makes playing the current iteration of mud moot, the only thing bringing me back was vitocs announcement of something new and I came across this gold mine of a post with your angry ass all over it.

I still nominate myself and would even not play.  Although you might lose some users since I'm one of the most active users.  Though of late, I've lost most of my interest in playing this game.  Mainly, because I have no interest in camping someone til I get stripped, because they're such a giant vagina.  Or abuses bugs to level out of range.  I have recently been playing Runescape anyways.  Clickety-click!
     The only other person I could honestly see as being a cool mudop would be Dabs/Dabbs/Invalid or Lake.  The rest are untrustworthy, selfish, and unintelligent.

nearly every one of you guy has shown you have some chip on your shoulder over something or have an issue with someone. listen to yourselves! every other post has been "i nominate myself BUT so and so can eat my ass" maybe i should put my name back in, i have extensive experience in dealing with little ungrateful shitheads. just fond someone else to program, i dont know, and dont want to know how. i think the more someone knows about the writings in the game the more they can exploit them to their own interest. you're like those fuckers at halloween who come up on a porch that has a bowl of candy and a sign that says "take ONE"

I'd make time if it would benefit gmud. This is the only game and only board I play at.  I think that, like Will said, Dabbs would be a good choice too.  As it gets colder my business tends to slow down and I'll be able to log on from work more, but if Dabbs' schedule is better I'd happily vote for him.

but my vote goes to lake - the ex-con meth addict dupe. the trust factor is huge. once a criminal always a criminal aye? forgets his story each push. it's funny listening to the crap get spewed then returning a few hours later and reading the telepaths trying to prove his innocence, like a guilty man. 100% trustworthy.
