TOPIC: SSRP Breaks for Staff Admins/Mods

SSRP Breaks for Staff Admins/Mods 7 years 3 months ago #733386

Server Name: Semi-Serious RP

Suggestion Title:

Getting two days off every week, stripped from your ranks so you relief pressure, resulting in you not feeling obligied to do staff work and getting burnt out too much, as alot of people do.

How would it benefit the server:

Less people resigning cause they get burnt out which they often can't show, resulting in them using certain excuses for leaving the team. Staff members would also be allowed to enjoy the servers freely without having to think of doing F1's. SSRP is a 7 days a week duty you volunteer for free and therefore it should be there for enjoyment, not obligations.

Potential Issues/Exploits:

An implementation of a system temp-demoting staff members as they're given their two days should be mandatory as it would prove quite unprofessional and time consuming for Higher ups to constantly having to strip their ranks every week. From my short experience as staff member it felt like a job which i hated, ended up me resigning really quick. Therefore I and many others thinks it relates to real life jobs. If you're given two days a week to look forward to you could put more effort in the remaining 5 days to with quality handle situations.

Another issue is if some people would prefer to keep things as they are and keep doing staff work to show dedication and interest for the community. Therefore it should be a choice whether you wanted this for your schedule or not.

With a system added more features could be added such as working 7 days a week before going on a long vacation to add up extra days so you'll hopefully keep your rank once you're home. And much more to be added.

Additional notes:

This could be made in different ways but I think the best way would be to give Moderators 1 day a week and Administrators 2 days a week.

Super-Admins and higher ups already seem to not have use of this as they're not obligied to do F1's and keeping the servers in control, however this isn't my decision.



Mainly inspired by Gems thread I was reminded of how dirty being staff is nowdays. You're forced to do work when you really don't feel like or just simply don't have time to. It applies pressure which doesn't really get off very easy without features like this.

If I need a break I just take one whenever I feel like I need one, no need for this really.

But most of the staff are doing an average of 20 f1s I wouldn’t say that’s very many at all to say I’ve been on and done that and only played a couples hours.

If staff wanna take a break or a vacation their more than welcome to at any time all they have to do is let a LD member know so we can note it don’t for when their back so we don’t just have a bunch of disappearing staff on the list that are not staff but couldn’t be assed telling anyone.

Gems thread also said what it was like “back in the day” he forgot to mention that the requirements was a lot harder and you had to actually do things that staff do like handle situations. I wouldn’t say all staff are like that but there is a few if not more that only do it cause they want a rank and now they want a fucking pat on the back for it? Phsss I give credit where credit is due I’m not working and I don’t get money for it either so I refuse to baby sit.

You're telling me it takes a staff member more than a week to do 20 F1's?

Sounds so stressful!


EDIT: I was getting at least 20 f1's in about 3 hours when I was still staff.

1- Exhausting for leadteam to take away and give ranks for that many staff members everyweek.

2- Might cause confusion/issues due to the staff list not being up to date always.

3- We don't want staff members taking this as an excuse to break rules as "users"

No need for negativity, i was just coming up with an idea as i've heard people in the past feeling obligations having that admin rank and F1's popping up when just want to enjoy the game.

This can be removed as i don't feel like reading hate, thx
