Admin Re-work discussion

So I would assume, consistently, you would be against everything Seth has proposed thus far if you stand by this viewpoint?

Eh, admins aren't just assigned to do certain things.  You chose to do this.  If you are the only admin on, it should be expected of you to:
A). Actually stay on the server after finding out your admin buddies aren't on.
B). Actually administrate instead of building or just chatting with other people.
C). Not immediately go AFK only to be kicked later on.

Admins have the benefit of being able to ban and undo everything someone does to their builds if need be, or can save/paste anything due to the -1 world edit limit as well as lack of block restrictions.  Those should be considered the "perks" of being admin, not an entire world that separates you from the other players.  The lack of command restrictions should be more than enough to outweigh an entire personal world.

I'm not saying that you can't goof around and all that, but there are times where admins need to suck it up and do what they signed up for.

The admin rank is for people who will administrate. If you had a valid reason for going inactive, you'll get your rank back. If you resigned, you will have to re-earn it.

the original question was (and i quote) "If a former inactive admin..." Your response was geared towards resigned admins

I think unfortunately this would being too many "what-ifs" into the mix.  Once you do it for one person, you have to do it for EVERYONE.  And who gets to decide what is an acceptable inactivity?  Does my mother dying make it ok?  What about my uncle?  My dog?  Lost my job?  Going on vacation to the Bahamas for 4 months?  Just not feelin' it for a couple weeks?  Does a Senior's life get treated as more important and more urgent than a Super?  Or do we require more activity from Seniors? There needs to be a hard, unbreakable line drawn for inactivity - especially for higher ranked admins.

I think the main point of this change is that in order to be an admin, you have to physically be able to be able to administrate when needed - not only when it is convenient for said admin.  This would unfortunately drive out most of the older admins due to school requirements and the such which would honestly blow.   Losing experience like that is never a good thing, but changes have to come.

I fully agree with this.

We're at a stage where our Discord and Forum is more active than the server itself, and many admins continue to post on the forums but not administrate. 

I agreed with you up until you said admins should be rewarded for doing something they volunteered to do.
If you can handle the extra responsibility, thank you for helping out. If you want "rewarded" for something you aren't being forced to do, you can go fuck your hat. (This isn't directed to you specifically)
