Hey guys.
As you may or may not I resigned from the staff team on July 25th due to some things I do not agree with. I figured I would make a staff feedback explaining and pointing out some on the reasons as to why I left the team. The point of this feedback is not to start a witch hunt, but more a wake up call.
So here I am speaking as an ex-Global Moderator.
1. Administrators being able to change their name.
This has been a topic for quite some time and many people have requested to find a way to implement name changes. There is certain things that makes this a bit more difficult than it may seems, which I obviously can't elaborate further on. But I do not think it's fair that Administrator can change their name if the rest of the community can't.
2. Administrators / Some other people can hold Veteran rank on two different accounts.
The rules for the Veteran rank clearly states "Players may only hold the Veteran rank on 1 account at a time". Are Administrators not players? Before someone says that it might be mistake, then yes it could be a mistake. But it appears they make this mistake every time they transfer their staff rank from one account to another.
3. Staff members are being treated differently.
When I first joined the team everything seemed normal and I was excited to be on board and offer my help to Alora. After some time on the team I realized that some people would get different treatment either by being liked more or being on the team for longer. I'm not sure why either of these reasons should ever have an impact. Every staff member should be treated the same sadly they're not. This was still a thing when I resigned.
4. Administrators / Higher ups is lacking giving credit.
These is no doubt that everyone on Alora and on the Alora staff team makes mistakes. We're all human and it will happen at some time. These mistakes will get pointed out the second they happen, some in a more pleasant way than others. Don't get me wrong mistakes should be pointed out because if you don't know what you did wrong you'll never fix it. But, you can point out bad things in a good way instead of screaming and yelling at people. It's funny because when someone actually does a good job it's not pointed out instantly but rather kept in the dark. It takes a simple comment to make someones day and thrive to get better at what they're doing, sadly this is something that is lacked and overlooked.
These are some one the reasons as to why I left the team. Keep in mind these are some of the things I personally think are wrong and you don't necessarily have to agree with me, and if you don't that's completely fine. Like I said this is not to cause drama, start a witch hunt or whatever, but simply a wake up call for the staff team. I have pointed out criticism on this thread, so feel free to do the same to me either in pm's or below. Sorry for any misspellings or bad grammar as English is not my first language. Alora is and will always be the best Runescape Private Server out there and I love and admire all the work the staff team does on a daily basis, just a couple of things I think should be fixed.
Thank you for reading my feedback.
