Well, we can only discuss suggestions that are posted on the forums or brought up by a community council member. Given the relatively low amount of pointshop suggestions on the forums and the amount of community council members that are mainly playing on SSRP we don't discuss that many pointshop suggestions. If you have any ideas for pointshop feel free to post a suggestion using this template.

I'd also like to mention that I'm currently working on giving the community more insight into future pointshop updates and making it easier for the community to get involved. You'll hear more about this around the end of the month!

My bad, when I said pointshop I didn't mean the literal pointshop as I already know you are working on it, I actually meant the point shop server's suggestions like TTT for example and you can't say TTT doesn't have a lot of suggestions.

We don't really discuss server-specific suggestions in the community council meeting, unless there are at least a few people in the community council meeting that are familiar with the server. The reason we talk so much about SSRP is because we have so many SSRP players in the community council. As far as I know the TTT suggestions get talked about within the TTT lead team and either accepted or denied by the Server Owner (currently Xnator). It wouldn't make much sense to talk about the TTT suggestions (especially stuff like balance changes) in the community council meeting when a large majority of the community council doesn't play TTT and therefore doesn't know much about the gamemode.

Well, if that is the case then why aren't any of the community-wide suggestions talked about like Kimi's demotion policy change suggestion?

All I want is someone to actually take some time and look at the suggestions and give us a response as right now even the regular players feel neglected and are saying that TTT has been forgoten.

Suggestions that go beyond pointshop or server-specific stuff like balance changes, new items and stuff like that can't really be talked about in the community council meeting. Changes to policies can only be brought up and voted on by members of the Community Team so it doesn't make much sense to bring them up in the community council meetings.

Staff issues get dealt with by the appropriate lead team, as they have the ability to address them properly and take action if needed; Policy changes get dealt with by the Community Team, as they are responsible for community-wide guidelines and are the only ones that can properly implement them; Suggestions for specific services get dealt with by the people responsible for the service (either the Server Owner(s) or the Community Team), as they have the ability to implement them.

The Community Council works closely with all of the teams mentioned above to bring up suggestions and potential issues. They are meant to be a bridge between the community and the "higher ups". While they don't have any additional powers such as the ability to accept suggestions on their own or take action against a staff member, they regularly get to voice their opinions and discuss suggestions and issues in the weekly Community Council meetings with members of the Community Team and the Server Owner(s).

Given the amount of specific knowledge you need to talk about in-depth suggestions for specific servers like TTT it's not really possible to discuss those suggestions in the Community Council meetings when there aren't many members that have that knowledge. Our Community Council primarily consists of SSRP players at the moment which is why you see a lot of SSRP related suggestions in the outcomes. The suggestions that can't be talked about in the Community Council meetings get handled directly by the responsible Server Owner / member(s) of the Community Team.

We would be happy to see a more diverse Community Council with more representation for the Pointshop Servers and we encourage everyone to apply if they feel like they've got what it takes to talk about suggestions and community issues. If you or anyone else wants to apply for a position in the community council, make sure to check out our application template.
