The guy who made it was much less then helpful. He just linked me to a virus site.

I agree that players are ruining WOs, not the staff, but I still don't like the voing ideas. People WILL whine, and cry, and people WILL try to impress the staff. I know I've made "If you wanna make admin, give admino a blow job" jokes before, in fun, but this joke is gonna be a reality if it comes to voting. Players are going to start spelling right, and doing everything they can to be chosen, then when they arn't, they will whine and cry. The staff should make the desicions on moderators.

A lot has gone down since Rymich got it but I think that we can get this server up like the way it was with just a bit of commitment from everyone. It seems like many people are complaining a lot but not many people are doing anything to help.

If we at minimum get this forum post up and going to atleast make even the slightest chance of a start to what we are heading for, I reckon we would be able to do it. But, like I said, we will need a ton of supporters in achieving it. This isn't a one man job.

I agree with idontwannaname on the "insider sort of" job, but there aren't many people out there who are like that. Plus if that happens, we also need to take care of the fact that they won't go mad with power or stress. I think, what we should do is, if we do what idontwannaname said I think we should make a poll and vote on who we think would be the best person for the job. That way the community knows the person well and trusts their instinct.

The player would also NOT have to scare players. Not to offen any moderators or admins, but you show up to a group a people, and it's kind of like talking to the police, their scared. We need someone who can hit both sides. Able to be moderator-like when needed, like if someone filed a /report, but immature and crazy enough, to party and have fun with the players, so that they feel more friendly towards whoever is chosen. This would open them up, They would want to talk. That is what we need.

I Think that We should have a Board for suggesting Who we would like as an Admin/Mod.
And The Administrator team Could look into that player and ask around.
My suggestion, Ownige

Popularity contest pls.

Not only popularity, but players have NEVER had a choice in who became moderator.

But if we need moderators, we need people are know the rules, follow them, and can /report alot. With some of the players we have as requlars, I think maturity is a hard thing to judge on. It's not like alot of the players who are left are "prime cuts" for moderators, but we have to work with what we have.

As for what I think we need, we need the houses and gangs to be fixed. And for accounts to be restored. That is the biggest complaint from what I have heard. We should also add a time when all the server owners, and trial mods get on at once, to answer questions. Owners for the updates and future and such, and trials, to test how they handle large crowds, can handle questions, and if when needed, they can be mature. This would let alot of players ask what's on their minds, and the owners can get closer to the "community"

Speaking of community, we need to reestablish it. WOS used to be a friendly place. People helped others, people taught stunting and drifting, and players would often answer /rule questions. I made alot of friends here,  shabz, ihopeyoudrown, flippa, mike_knight, oh_shit, xcan, more then I can list. And I made friends with moderators like tina, brendon, and rikimaru. And that was all before I was ever close to being a moderator. We to get back the...the friendlyness, of WOS. Where everyone had fun. Everyone could have a good time, and we had parties and such. If I remember back way into like june, I remember being with a huge group of players, on a boat at /t beach, having fun and /pissing on things, and chatting, and THAT is what we need. The friendly, "we are good people" mood back to the server. It was always my friends I loved about WOS.
(please note:The immature comments in this statement, like /pissing on things, were just intended as fun. WOS can't just be "uptight mature" all the time, you have to have some fun. And players open up ALOT more if you have fun with them, and be a friend, rather then a mature person who watches over them like a hawk, it scares them.)



I think in a short list:

Fix houses
Fix gangs
Bring WOS back into a friendly community again

And WOS should be back to 150 players normal, and things should mello out.


Edited in for lols:If you go read "farewell friends" by slyfox, you can find a PERFECT example between me and flippa of that "friendly" community I'm talking about. Were we just get along. :] THATS IT! That's the words I was looking for! WOS needs to stop fighting about updates, and stop fighting about moderators! We need to GET ALONG! Be friends! We need to have a party! Go and drink some /beers and hit on the girls! That is what WOS needs right now, is some fun.

Well, I tried to put the new ELM into my game (Emergency Light Mod) Which, is the mod that makes players headlights flash, and if you have skins, those lights flash. Well, now when I start normal GTA, it crashes. And when I enter SAMP i get a BASS.dll could not be found error. And the mod doesn't work. Does anyone know what I did wrong?
