Random thoughts about Divisions

[Guile]

It would seem that there is in fact an unbalance about some divisions. I can understand DOD, CSS, TF2, INS, maybe COD and BC2 but it seems that EVE and WOW would offer a disadvantage for getting promoted. These other games, especially valve games offer a very good way show your admining skills and become a mature gaming leader. Other than diciplinary warnings for language and profanity I can't see how one would admin in WOW and EVE. Maybe this is all that they expect but with this said it appears that it would be hard for someone to notice your contributions to the community through adminship. If this is how it works then great for us but these are just my random thoughts about the situation. Please feel free to add to this rant and comment with other thoughts and opinions.

People in the EVE and WoW divisions contribute in different ways than admining. They can help with events, bringing in new members, recruiting, and a multitude of other things.



If a DL saw someone who deserved a promo, they wouldn't not do it because of divisions

There is always an unbalance in everything.

This.
Mind you, the WoW and EVE sections are quite alive and our big annual is on EVE.

People are notices and promoted in different ways. The servers aren't the only way you can get to know leadership. Communication through the forums, IRC and Vent are an easy way to allow leadership to see your maturity.

I figured as much but someone who has been in EVE and WOW their whole EGO careers would be very limited in experience when it comes to administrating in the Source Engine games.

Admining is admining. Learning a different system of admin is the same as riding a bike or using a new tool (Which is funny cause admin is a tool to keep control and run the server). Also this is why we have AT's who help run classes for people who have never used Sourcemod Admin.

On the contrary, no. We have great admins in WoW and EVE who also are great in source games.

iWhiskey is my example for today.
