There is no forum for Application so I just started a new thread... RL Name: Keegan Age: 18 Loc: Toronto, Canada Languages: English Experience: 2.5+yrs of mapping, GMing, modding forums and tutoring for various OTs. One of my first ecperiences was GMing and helping map the Myra Stone Tablets project, which was on OT with custom map very close to 2/3 the size of the real Tibia map; by far my greatest acheivement. I grew to love this OT and waited patiently for it to come back into comission. Now it is here and I offer my services to make it better if they are needed.

1: You would do better to catch a GM's attention with your own thread instead of piggybacking on this one.
2: CoD is 6 months old? If so then I started after I thought I did...

I do NOT want to see someone go from normal player straight to gm, Even if they are extreemly qualified for the job (Kleaveland). Kleaveland Should be awarded Tutor, And then have to work his way up through the ranks. Maby tutor for 2 weeks -> If all goes well Kleaveland Gets promoted to Counsellor. counsellor for 2 weeks -> of all goes well Kleaveland gets promoted to Game Master
Promoteing someone straight to GM is a bad idea, Trust me on that.

Well see alot of people here have already played w/ chris for a while. He has gotten to know most of the dedicated players that try to be on when ever they can, and im sure if he moves them straight to GM he will have known and trusted them for a while now.
just my thoughts o.o,
Love, Jennas

Sure, He might know and trust them. But things...change when people are suddenly put into places of power. Attitudes can often alter. Ive seen it happen so many time.
E.g(This is something ive seen happen to one of my friends and others) A very nice player who is trusted by the owner and by alot of the players is promoted straight to GM. The new GM on the block likes to show off his new GM The new GM on the block likes to make very prettful houses with his GM The new GM on the block loves to help everyone as much as possibal. A small fight breaks out infront of him between two groups from the server, both of wich he is friends with. The new GM on the block decides to heal and then seperate the fight. This causes alot of anger. New GM does not understand what he has done wrong as all he has done is help his friends live. New GM knows no better because from as soon as he got his GM he was helping everyone in every way he could, thinking all the while he was helping the server. Brazilian player joins the server Brazilian player needs some help with spawn locations New GM gets frustrated because he is not use to this. New GM winds up killing the Br. New gm likes to continue playing his normal char, New gms normal char gets gang pked by a group of newcomers. New GM relogs on his gm and kills them all.
To watch from a distance as three GMs do this simultaniously, Me being the fourth GM was quite disterbing as all three GMS even i thought would be able to handle everything well. I saw a great server go down as a result of this.
Most of this can be controlled by promoteing people up the ladder slowly starting as a tutor also by only giving tutor to people you really trust Remembering that a tutor CAN /c monsters. (tutors only abuseable power, really)
