I see what Killa is saying and I agree. I used to base and I saw admins abusing their power just to help their buddys get to the flag. I don't agree with it and if admins truly want to base, let them use their ipod account with no staff advantages. Simple.

because most admins are bias for the right to own a guild, and alot voted. there are alot of admins on this forum, maybe more active than most normal users (even if they didnt leave a comment). puh-lz.

If more admins than players voted, clearly your community doesn't really care about it lol

i said alot voted. not more, take away all the admin votes, and even if its still more for yes, its alot more accurate.

& this brings up another point in this thread, an admin's influence.

maybe admins should just let players play the game, and admins be admins and administrate. (and if you think its boring, dont be an admin, and just be a player)

there done.

My position was always around this basis, I've always believed we are too involved in the game itself.

Back in the day when era first came out, admins never even created gangs on their staff account, the only "admin" gang we had back then was probably Canavi. Now a days it seems to be a new admins first priority to create a gang on their staff account and instantly start recruiting their friends. I feel like admins should only be allowed to create gangs on their iDevices. I see no REAL reason why an admin needs to have a gang owned by their staff. For example, HW's old gang Pink; so many issues were brought up because she would use her staff account to base with her gang and her staff account pretty much had an endless supply of basing items (nades, heals, etc), and that pretty much meant that any base that Pink held was impossible to take because the second you entered the room, you were spammed with nades. I honestly see no reason why a PR would need to own a basing gang on their staff. Social gangs tend to be less of a problem because most of the time the members of social admin gangs are just in there so that they can kiss ass to the admin who owns it and try to get free items. There really is no real reason a staff member needs to own a gang on their staff accounts, their priority and focus should be to do their job that they were hired to do.

Well alot of the big-wigs feel the same, soooo..your the admins, do something about it.

As long as they don't abuse powers then it's fine for them to have a gang.

@homopanda

Not quite. Hw ios account is purple moon and she owns candy. Purple has nearly a endless amount of heals and nades gas etc. not much changed.

Before I was staff, I had 6000 burgers.
That's enough to handle a base for a year.

6000 burgers is not enough to handle a base for a year....LOL....unless you're basing like 10 minutes a day.
i went through 3000 hotdog's in like 2-3 weeks.

because her staff account has access to an endless supply of heals and items.....i already stated that.

Well sure? As long as they aren't pulling any 300x 300 pixels shotgun while they are basing.

Kyle Kol 02-04-2013 12:07 AM

only if they're willing to put up with gang-based spam about asking for a recruit

I don’t think any admin should be allowed to own a gang. 2nd account or not. The people running & administrating the game, should do just that, run and administrate the game, or be a player and play the game. Not both. too much power that can be abused while owning a competitive gang as an admin. compare it any other game anywhere in the world, in video games or sports, that you would think its ok that the officals, referees, admins, umpires, whoever runs the game and has powers that others dont, can actively play against you.

like i said before, your very naive if you believe an admin wouldnt play and base on one device, and be using their admin account, on their pc or laptop (or even another idevice) to abuse powers at the same time. especially if they are running a competitive basing gang.

Hes kinda right, im not against staff gangs but im against stuff they use in base. For example all admins who base use sabers gas guns etc
