Hello everyone, me again. I'm sorry it's not a quick one, but I feel it's an important one.

It's been a few days since I was honoured with the Community Representative position, and I feel I'm quickly adapting to the role. Firstly, I would like to thank all of you guys - Admin, Civs, Police, Rebels, UNMC, NHS and Hobos alike. I've loved getting to know you over the last 7 months, and can't wait to get more involved in the coming year.

Many of you have already been approached by myself for feedback, others have contacted me, and rest assured I will continue with this attitude. Your views are very important to the Admin team and myself, and I can only do my job if you tell me what you feel.

Secondly, I'd like to ask for your help. I was looking to get some honest feedback from you - the community I represent, with regards to my role. I'm open to any comments, criticism, praise or ideas, as well as having some thoughts of my own.

Do you feel this role was a necessary addition?
What would you like to see me doing more of?
Where do you see this role going?

I have my ideas but yours are more important, so go wild, I won't take offence, and always love constructive feedback.

Finally, below I would like to publish a community message from Wilco, who I must thank again for giving me this opportunity.

Dear friends and players of Altis Life UK,

It is with great pleasure we are able to welcome DainMK to be the voice of the admins and the voice of the people here at AltisLife.co.uk.

Furthermore this shows we do listen when suggestions are put forward. Going forward you will only see announcements from myself and the admin team about development of the website/teamspeak and most importantly the servers, in the new renamed 'Development' subforum section. All other announcements will be from the Community Representative.

There has been a lot going on in the community recently with a number of things that we should of just ignored and carried on with, and I need to take some responsibility for that. With the introduction of Community Representative I hope these things will have less of an impact in future.

As well we have introduced the new Mentors, and increased Admin activity, giving better and faster access to help in game and out.

I am not leaving the server or community although it may sound like that. I will be still around as founder working on member support, editing the map, babysitting the servers and continuing to have brilliant discussions with the admin team, working on what this is all about - roleplay, and giving players a fun experience that will hopefully live in their memories, and all we hope is you make amazing friends along the way.

This means DainMK now has full control in his new position. I am sure he will do an amazing job and i am already impressed by his ideas and his voice for radio!

Signing out!

 
Voice for radio, I second that.

You're brilliant Dain, stay that way even though I'm not going to be around for a while I hope you're still up for a natter on TS every now and then and I hope you get to keep this position for the rest of your time on the server. :)

It's brilliant to have someone who is able to put the breath of the community into words! I have no doubt that you will make the most of this position and really benefit the community because of it :)

I have an idea / suggestion regarding something that you could be in charge of: Suggestions.

There are so many amazing suggestions from the community I feel don't get the attention they deserve, most probably because of the amount of suggestions that get posted daily. With someone actively viewing them, you could forward any suggestions you feel would seriously benefit the server to Wilco / Ciaran to help get them noticed and worked on.

What do you think?

I have mixed feelings on that. Right now I have a lot going on, perhaps I'm too ambitious, but once I have my mentors in order, and settle in more, it's certainly something I'd be interested in. As far as my ability to interpret 'what's possible' as far as the suggestions, or how they fit in with the bigger picture, I'm comfortable, but not 100% confident. Given some direction or framework to work with from Wilco/Ciaran however it could work out well.

Thanks for the feedback so far guys, the more you tell me, the better I can work for you.

At the end of the day if it's not something you want to do then you're not going to get the job done as well as you would if you were loving every minute of it. I understand that (especially as you're starting off) there will be a lot of things you will need to sort out and a lot of questions to answer. Like you said, when the mentor team is set up and you have people to take a little weight off your shoulders maybe you could look into it :)

 
You are the embodiment of this community and I can't think of a better person than you, the army of ALUK stands united with you Dain. You will not disappoint us and you will make us proud.

 
To Wilco, does this mean that you will spend more time ingame? I would like to kidnap DI Wilco one day :)

To DainMK, congratz on the new position, hope to see you alot ingame :)

 
Nice, I'm very impressed with the progress ALUK is making..

Congratz on your new position mate!

I would love to suggest one thing which was a struggle for me when I was new on this Community.

Communication with the Admins by Teamspeak.

So for example have a channel called "Report Channel" have one admin of the staff as ingame on duty-admin, who is there to help and respond to reports from within the mobile phone or by just going to that channel and report it from there so he/she responds to it immidately.

+ The on duty-admin should always be OOC.

With friendly regards, Rayoshi.

@Rayoshi - Thanks for the feedback, putting some points on my list to raise higher.

Feel free to use the 'Help' channel for this purpose. The mentors and myself are here for anything and everything that will make your experience better. True, the availability of online admins can always be improved, but when active our response time can be seconds. Last night being a fabulous example - after reports were made of a medic being RDM'd with no admin on server, a ban was issued within 2 minutes. The support structure we're putting in place will really have a big impact on rule-breakers, and your overall experience, so I can't wait to see how this develops.

I would just like to add that personally I will not ban anyone unless I see them breaking rules myself or have been provided evidence. If someone flags someone breaking the rules using the text admin function I will spectate them otherwise a report is required. It's not that people are not trust worthy its that there are some people who are not fully honest or have a biased view of an RP situation.

 
Do you feel this role was a necessary addition?Yes very much so
What would you like to see me doing more of? Holding an event for your new role
Where do you see this role going? Very far now that the community has someone to talk to about there worry.​
 
Dain, great to hear about your new position!

With regards to a suggestion, it'd be great of another admin/ two extra admins had the power to ban/ unban people. At the moment while although any admin can approve a case for banning/unbanning we have to wait for Wilco to actually flick the switch on it.

Having at least one other trusted Admin to help in this would not only alleviate Wilco's workload with regards to this but it'd also mean a faster response time and in the end less frustration among the community as we're not being starved of our sweet, sweet Altis fix.

We do have one, I can do it. Just the fact that most of the time I am developing. There is a way to do it for the admins coming soon though.
