Recent discussion in totalfreedom.boards.net/thread/67383/graphic-designer-visual-artist-position has made me realize that these executive positions could be doing a whole lot more than just Managing Master Builders and advertising the server. Advertising Manager was renamed to Liaison which many considered would broaden what they were assigned to do. To my belief, they have generally maintained the same function and I decided to make this suggestion to help rectify that. Executive Server Liaisons would - Manage Community Events
- Facilitate a close working relationship between operators.
- Advocates for Freedom and General Enjoyment
Executive Creative Designers would - Manage Server Art
- Orchestrate buildings
- Manage the public perception of the server in terms of map creation
I made some of these based on Polaris Seltzeris 's suggestions but further suggestions are welcomed

I don't understand why we have allowed wize to remain the server liaison all this time. He isn't that active, rely's on Darth (and until previously fionn) to actually do the advertising work, and rarely interacts on discord and the forums. If we are going to require the liaison to do more stuff I think we need to remove wize as he doesn't even do the little work he should be doing now.

All executives can now be voted out every 3 months.

All executives can now be voted out every 3 months. " Voting out Executives. Every 3 months there will be a poll for each respective Executive position asking if you feel they have performed their job in a beneficial and positive way. If the “No’s” outweigh the “Yes’s” then a re-election for that position will be held. The incumbent may reapply in the same re-election. The community also has the ability to call upon themselves a removal of position if the Executive is not performing up to task. If you are removed forcefully or resign to avoid being removed forcefully, you may not reapply in the respective election."

I've spoken to Wize recently, and I agree there has been an extreme lack of communication between us. He has meetings with Seth about budgets for advertising tasks.

This sounds like something that should certainly be in public for transparency.

I can tell you that I'm working with YouTubers to promote the server, and am currently in contact with a few big ones.

Darth is just a spokesperson of our team. I am and will always be the brains of the operation. Because of my administration and leadership I've raised Tf's consistent player count exponentially and have maintained a historically communal sense of what TotalFreedom means to us.

You are the server liaison your job is to advertise the server, host events, and make sure the players are happy. I have not seen you host events, I have not seen evidence of a increased player count, and I rarely see you on. I have only seen a couple of posts where you have even explained what you are planning on doing and for the record it looks like Darth is the one doing the work. Don't say you are the brains of an operation when Darth here says that you two are barely in contact. I am not saying that you can't handle this role I am saying that if you want to you need to step up your game. By hosting events. Explain to the community your plans and interacting with the server more often

Explain to the community your plans and interacting with the server more often I can vouch that Wize is doing stuff, and we have been in contact these last couple days (although yes, there is still somewhat of a communication gap). I was planning on making an update thread in the public section of the form in the next few days.

Are there any statistics on this player count growth? I've personally seen zero updates or reports related to server liaison. I think that anything involving money should be 100% transparent and documented.

The server liaison role was only created due to the vast amount of associated servers we had, and was intended for someone to manage them.
Given we have 1 maybe 0 associated servers, I personally think that role should now be retired, it's not needed.
Everything you've described in the role for a server liaison officer is nothing to do with the role, and actually should fall into the executive position I held some time ago which was the Executive Evangelist position who's job it was to bring in new players and retain existing players.
Personally the ECD should be responsible for the servers entire creative approach, that should include stuff like our web presence, our in game maps, our forum themes and everything.
If you're going to call someone an executive, it should be because they have a wide ranging responsibility, people like the EAO have fairly wide ranging responsibilities, but most of the other executive roles have shrunk and shrunk in scope as people try to do less and less work.
