essentials.gamemode permission.
« on: June 25, 2013, 06:37:52 pm »
I feel like I have done a good job in my first 2 months of being a mod, and I think I may (if you guys agree) deserve the essentials.gamemode permission? I'm gonna post some reasons why I think I should have it.


1. I can host more events. With this permission, I can build "mini-events" to host whenever people want to participate in one. VIROS won't be bugged as much cause I can help in making some events.


2. I would be able to fly. You guys said I had to donate to gamefreak to get the permission, but I don't have the money to. What about when there wasn't a gamefreak? Then how did mods get /fly ? With fly I could record more battles without getting in the way of them. I could actually record good champion battles and elite battles.


3. I just took over Goldenrod gym, which had no course and just a black box as an arena. I want to make a course for the gym and make a nice arena for it. The new maps are being expected in the fall to come out, so I think I can make a course for it? I don't have a ton of items to build one in survival, so getting this would help me out big time.

Where's the fire? What's the hurry about? You better cool it off before you burn it out.

I'd also like to ask for just /fly, I find it annoying when I have to use dirt to get to points I need to world edit, and like Waffles said, I'm also always getting bugged for events and I'm usually online alone. So with fly I could host my own events. I don't really need gm.

Don't see why game-mode is needed instead of /fly.

You guys refused ./fly cause I needed to donate according to you all. So thats why I asked for gm, and the other reasons.

Why would we grant gamemode over fly.


I won't be here for the admin meeting but here is my opinion. Never have I been consulted on whether mods should have /fly. I'm fine with /fly. But I'm 100% against you, or really any mod as of now, to have gamemode. It's a powerful tool that you don't really need.


1) Events are not something you need to worry about. Leave that up to the admins/OP's unless we specifically go out for you. Feel free to host them but we're not giving special powers for you.


2) Like I said, I'm fine with /fly


3) You don't need /gamemode for building a gym nor are we going to modify your moderator powers to allow you to do something for your gym. That's a terrible reason.


If there was a real concern for it being needed, I'd consider it. But your three reasons are not even close to necessary.


And don't use time as a wavier for trust. You could be moderator for 2 years and if you don't build a trust with me, I won't ever be in favor for you to have more powers. That's just me though. I want to have a personal trust with my moderators, and flaunting your time as a means for trust is not how I measure that. Quality of quantity. Not saying you haven't done a good job or I don't trust you, fyi.

Yeah, I understand. Instead of game mode, all I need is /fly !
