Administrator Rules

Colonel Banryx · Administrator Rules

Because even the "emperors" need rules, I'm going to lay some down.

1) You can't do any major deletions without telling the people and at least having a discussion.

2) You can't make any major decisions for the Empire without the people agreeing

3) You are not to abuse your powers. Any admin doing so will be punished by me.

4) Colonel Banryx (a.k.a. me) will be taking position as admin of the people. I will make sure that any administrator decisions are in the best interest of the site.

5) You cannot make any major decisions without consulting all four admins.

6) Any admin that violates these rules will be stripped of their powers or banned for a certain period of time.

Although nobody has voted on these rules, I am confident that the regular members will be fine with them.

Lord Storms

But in a feudal system, it is the nobles who rule. Sorry.

1. We are NOT a republic, nor were we intended to be. We are a feudal monarchy, and were founded as one. I apologize if EM failed to communicate this to you.

2. Same as #1.

3. You lack any such authority. You are a colonel, not a noble or even a general.

4. You will hold no such position; neither the Emperor nor any of the top 3 lords have approved this.

5. Three admins. It was long ago decided that there shall never be more than 3.

6. You are being stripped of your powers permanently on grounds of treason.

Colonel Banryx

You are being unfair. And, as the admin who enforces admins, as a rule, I'm removing your admin powers, Storms.

Lord Storms

Your a bit late to continue your rebellion, Banryx. I have already banned you from accessing the Administration Panel.

Colonel Banryx

What? Really. Try going there yourself.

General Ceyrox

Looks like Banryx wins...

Lord Storms

Honestly, Banryx, did you expect to play upon my honor? I'm not that easily manitpulated.

Colonel Banryx

I gave your powers back. Really. You're just being stubborn. Do you really WANT it to be an empire. As cliche as it sounds, you really have become corrupt, Storms.

Lord Storms

Corrupt? No. I want this to remain an Empire, and EM wants it to remain that. You wanted to change the very organization that we have run off of since the begining, and have demonstrated that you are willing to fight to do so. Perhaps you realized that you couldn't win, perhaps you have more honor than I thought. Either way, however, I'm not one to take risks.

Colonel Banryx

Understandable. But I wasn't going to "overthrow" you. Why would I do that? No one would listen to me. Everyone would quit. And change is useful, sometimes. But I'm not saying abandon monarchy. Just TRY to be fair.

General Ceyrox

I think Ceasar wanted the Roman Empire to remain an Empire, unfortunately it didn't turn out too well for him.

Colonel Banryx

True. Although Storms is being rather selfish.

Dread Abyss

All admins means two, apparently.

I'm upset about the topics being hastily deleted, I would've been fine to delete whatever was supposedly wrong. I'm upset about the lack of power Banryx and Ceyrox hold in this discussion, though taking away powers and banning people is a tad out of hand.

As for the rules, I vote 5, 2, and 1. Although I don't know about Banryx being head admin.

Colonel Banryx

I didn't say being head admin. But out of Storms, EM, and me, I seem to be the fairest, actually standing up for people's rights.

General Ceyrox

Maybe that's because right now, you are the people.

Lord Storms

Let's see what the emperor says, considering he has the final say on all issues.

Colonel Banryx

Well, Storms obviously isn't, and he's treating everyone but himself and EM unfairly.

Since when does he have the final say in all issues?

Lord Kaen

-bangs head against wall-

Please...stop fighting...=.=

Colonel Banryx

This is a bigger argument than ever before. This is completely unfair.

And Storms, of course EM will take your side, he's one of your best friends. But he doesn't have the ultimate opinion in things.

Lord Kaen

I know, I just wish we could all agree. Though I know that's never gonna happen.

I say deleting the forum was unfair, maybe locking and moving to a trash form would've suited better.

>_>

General Ceyrox

Fair, good, and kind people should be leaders. Storms and EM are being none of those things. So why should they be admins? Because they started the site?

Colonel Banryx

Exactly. Or just deleting the posts. So far, that's four against one.

Lord Kaen

They've been fair. This is a one time thing that's happened. They want (Freeze, Loki, Shadow) To be able to be part of the site, and that wouldn't be possible without them getting rid of what they can't use..

all the same, it was unfair for those who can use it, and punishing the members who used it was unjust.

That's how I see it. >_>

Colonel Banryx

That's mostly it. But the thing I'm MOST angry about is that Storms is saying this is literally an empire. Maybe it is, but its not fair, and we should work something out.

Lord Kaen

Dread Abyss

EM has a final say in things because this is his forum, he started it and has been undisputed leader since. Anyways, yes, what was done was going too far for its own good.

Colonel Banryx

True, but I never agreed he has a final say in things. He started the forum, but how does that make him a good decison maker? Besides, his POV is biased in two ways. One, he 's an admin, two, he's really good friends with Storms. Kaen's right, it's just a schism between members and admins.

Lord Kaen

And in the end, admins will win...so maybe we could drop this?

Just don't use the literal term 'This is an EMPIRE!'
and give members warning next time.

I think that's what mainly threw us off (me at least)

And hopefully it will NEVER happen again..

Colonel Banryx

Well, we need the admins to end this. But it has brought up a point that this SHOULDN'T be an empire.

EDIT: Also, let's talk about this elsewhere. Don't post about this anymore except in the Schism topic.

General Ceyrox

I think the members will win. Are they really admins if no one follows them? Not to mention we outnumber them. Plus we have... ways... of getting what we need. Mwahahahahahaha!

Colonel Banryx

Stop discussing this.

NS_Venom

Doesn't matter because Banryx and Formicoh are "dead".

Lord Kaen

General Ceyrox

Why! What did Banryx do! Banning would have been over the top, but deleting him was just ridiculous EM!

Dread Abyss

All right, first I was angry because those topics were deleted and my admin powers were taken, now you delete Banryx's account(s)!? Look, you could've banned him or told him what he should've changed instead of deleting his account. Also, you really should've told the members about this.

Good job.

Colonel Banryx

Look. I'm back. Yay! I have one post.

Dread Abyss

Uh, kudos on your first post in your new account? Sorry about EM's decision, I'm not an admin so I'm not told about anything anymore. Though I wasn't told about some things when I was an admin.

Colonel Banryx

Yeah, well, if they think the home page is going to updated, they are wrong. Seriously, why did they do this? Is Storms on his side?

Dread Abyss

Yup, the two people who can update the home page aren't going to do it; I don't have the ability to and you refuse. Storms probably didn't know, but thinks nothing of it.

Colonel Banryx

Hm, well I never thought he HATED me. Seriously, the thing I don't understand the most was, me and EM were friends. Not GOOD friends, but I met him at the park and we seemed to get along a lot. He never had any rules against me, and he didn't even warn me. Banning would've been better.

Dread Abyss

Banning, warning, asking people's opinions. Yup, all the things he neglected.

Colonel Banryx

What's his deal? It was kinda outa nowhere. I mean, what did I even do?

General Ceyrox

Did he post anywhere else at all? Well, I sent him a PM about it.

Emperor Maelstrom (Guest)

I deleted Banryx because Storms wanted me to. He told me that Banryx took away his admin powers. As for Foremicoh, I just hated that account.

Colonel Banryx

How come?

General Ceyrox

Aren't you the one who said Banryx could have Foremicoh.

Colonel Banryx

Yes, he did. He never even asked me to stop it.

NS_Venom

Still....

Dread Abyss

Foremicoh is invincible, this will be testimony to that fact! I thought Storms got over the admin powers thing, quite unfortunate. What's with the 'Sula?

Lord Bunnies

NS_Venom

ITS 'SULA!

General Ceyrox

You guys should: Close this topic, move it to the archives, create a new topic with admin rules that we vote even they must follow.

Lord Bunnies

General Ceyrox

Oh, Bondage. You should get that goat porn stuff out of your sig. Seems a tad inappropriate, don't you think?

Lord Bunnies

Colonel Banryx

It's not that innapropriate. Sure, he won't say it, but it did happen, and he was warning you...

Dread Abyss

I think ES could edit the topic containing the poll and we could vote and continue discussion here.

Emperor Solo? Emperor Sala? Emperor Sa-na-ta-ah-na?

Lord Bunnies

Emperor Santa Monica

Lord Storms

Emperor Thel 'Vadam.

Colonel Banryx

Emperor Vladmire...

General Ceyrox

Emperor Voldemort!

Dread Abyss

Emperor Sulu, he's a Trekkie!

Was the topic edited?

Colonel Banryx

What topic? And of what?

Dread Abyss

This topic, with a poll. A poll for the rules of the forum.

Colonel Banryx

Well that's hard to vote for...

Brilliant Gort

So, uh, what are the rules? Don't cuss, don't flame, don't abuse your powers, don't say anything certainly inappropriate, and don't touch Abyss? Those rules suck, I say we replace them with "Feed Gort three times a day"!

Gort thinks those rules are fine, ESPECIALLY Gort's!

Colonel Banryx

That's pretty muc hit, although I'm sure we'll go in greater detail than that...

Lord Bane

this is really unfair. my God! storms, get over your self. seriously. the only reason you agree with a monarchy is cause you are sitting next to the king!

Colonel Banryx

Way to go, Bane!

NS_Venom

I'm back. 8) The rules don't change! I'm trying to make sure everyone can stay on! Thats why we shall no longer post bad things!

Colonel Banryx

Okay. Where's Storms anyways? He hasn't been on lately.

NS_Venom

Why are asking me? Hes always busy with something whenever hes not on.

Colonel Banryx

Either that or he's too stubborn to see me as an admin.
