Quote from: King_Craftius on May 31, 2017, 04:53 PMTbh its bad enough doing the Jmud and Mud of the week. Making little Jimmy the Jmod feel like God and better than other players. So its an even worse idea for normal players.

And it will become a popularity contest, just because someone has friends doesn't make then the best player. Players could ask for money in-return of voting for other people to become popular, or other JPEGS.

This will make SFT into more of a Tinder wannabe than a gaming community. And if anything rift players apart and reduce popularity, the opposite of what SFT needs!!!!!!!
I'm sorry you fail to understand the basic concept of why JOTW and MOTW was added, but let me explain just here.
No, it wasn't made to make "Jimmy the Jmod feel like God", it was made to show these people who dedicate some times half of what you would put in a paid job (20h / week) for free, as a favor to the server, and the players, some appreciation.

Yes,  there may have been and may still be some "bad apples" in the staff team and that issue will never go away unless we have a paid staff team which can be accounted for for any mistakes but unless you or anyone else want to pay 30+ people full time wages that isn't going to happen. So how about instead of bashing some staff members because you have some personal grudges against a bunch of people, you show some appreciation instead.

In that case, popularity contest it is :)
So yeah, this IS a popularity contest I guess. I don't see anything wrong at all. We aren't giving the nobel prize here or something like that.
If the values of democracy don't work for you (Free vote, everyone has voting powers) I don't know what will and I won't even try to know.

Don't call it player of the month then xd

American_Walrus

yeah if it's a popularity contest, "player of the month" sounds like "hey you're the best player we could find this month, here's a reward". Well, you can be popular and not be a good player, right?

Yeah tbh gotta agree with this. I mean like, this shit is a popularity contest in a way. But honest question for @Towelie what does having the "POTM" poll and rank do for the server?

Magic_Panda_Lol

I vote dpa

And his burned hand.

Maybe instead of a prefix get him one of those bubble suits?  :heart:

To everyone whining about this post: stop. I'll go through the post when I get home and take note of every complaining person so I can know exactly who I am disappointed​ in.

This is a great idea - back when I actively played RuneScape my clan had a yearly event called a popularity contest where all the members of the clan got to vote for their favorite member (as well as other random titles like most clumbsy, best looking, most lucky etc) this isn't to make one person feel better than everyone else it's to encourage communication and give us something to do and laugh at - nothing more.

If anything I'll be talking to Towelie to expand on this event and make a few fun titles and offer signatures and run this event every 3 months or so.

I wasn't aware people weren't allowed to express their views.
I myself wasn't "whining", I just felt like people needed to be aware, or some crao after I thought about it, but take what people said however you want.

Quote from: sparkydeathcap on Feb 17, 2016, 04:07 AMand also; how old are you? I've always imagined you as like a old irish man that drinks whiskey and screams at people to get off his lawn while sitting on a bench in the park. But I'm pretty sure that's not the case because if it was: 1. you're a pedophile and 2. you're a pedophile

When Tow was in-Gane deciding about POTM,  a few players including me stated that we should do an "SFT Yearbook." Each class would be a different SFT server like Survival, Pixelmon etc. Then within those classes we would vote on class clown, most likely to be a lawyer, most popular etc. Tow said no due to the toughness it would be to do in a Minecraft Book and Quill. We might be able to do this online though. :D
