** This may not be the best, but I am hoping it will give ideas to help with the rules**
You know I've seen a couple admin abuse here and there, sometimes I can ignore it sometimes I can't. Do you know how boring it is to watch a whole entire 'Joke Day' when you were killed by the admin at the start of the round? Now most of you that don't know me, I am a very political guy and I like how the government works and I want to see if it could fit into the xG clan. Here is as follows:
----------------------
**Sorry some of these might not be true and disregard it** I am still new
----------------------
-Executive ( Admins)
*Enforce the servers
*Since Silence has all the power, think of him as the president, he should break it up so other high ranking admins can cut some work for him. As follows
~ Breaking up some of his powers to other High, well know and trust-able admins; I believe that the amount of admins verses the number of disrepute is out weighted. Sometime, and Silence if your reading this please excuse me. I am not singling you out, cause there's plenty out there, but when you kill me it really ****** me off, I know your trying to have fun and I do enjoy it sometimes, but not when its every other round.
~ They [Executive] will be able to vote or choose their judicial counterparts but should be agreed by the Legislative. They also have the right to immediately allow or veto rules but must have a valid reason.
~ They may call for a special hearing in mumble or the entire xG community for a new proposal whether that be banning, kicking, voting.
~ They can pardon banned players or members with reasonable fact.
DoB- Department of Banning
Executes most of the Bans
DoA- Department of Appeal
Works with conjunction with Judicial to see if a player/ member should be unbanned.
----------------------------------
-Judicial (Mods and other high, well know players)
* Review the rules and make sure they're fair for the most part this is good
* Review cases that members and other players post
~ I believe this is imperative because it gives not only players a better place to get help, but current admins a ease of mind. I think there should be or integration with the ban request section where 'Judges or council' can look thoroughly through a case and actually find the best resolution for it. Not just where people post demos of their side of the story. There is always two sides to a story, and though demos are a great way to get justice I don't think its just use enough, and some people might not have video capturing devices. After a case they will present it to the Executive (DoB or DoA) who will decide whether to execute the order or not.**Judges can over ride the rule with a 2/3 vote**. They are not only given full power to looking at bans but also for Appeals.
~ They should also decide whether the Executive are abusing their power and should be able to somehow regulate or control that.
~ They can block a passed rule if it is not being effective in servers or not being fair to the members and/or the players.
~ They only carry basic admin(kicking ect..) rights.
* Now to be a Judicial you need to be very experienced because there is no margin for mistakes, its all about being fair and not taking sides in a case without reasonable cause. They probably demands the most time and commitment, but should provide a better environment.
---------------------------------
Legislative (Players, Mods, Admins everyone else)
This is a position for everyone. What we should do here? Well I know I might sound *** or something I really don't care I'm just trying to give advice take it or not. But we have a total of 10 servers. What happens is that for each server people should be able to choose who they want them to represent, I think 2 per server should suffice depending on server population and max . These two would be your congressmen, all players should go directly to them for issues about the game, the server, the members just about everything with limitations which I will go over if this plan is to be in placed. They have the power to go to the Executive directly or Judicial to hold a conference on mumble (I guess) and tell them about the issues. Now this branch does no have any banning rights, but should have the power to kick players because I expect them to be majority the base of the support team. I believe there should be a large but not surplus amount of these 'Congressmen'. Since our DM Surf, and JailBreak are the most populate, with the placement of 'Congressmen' it should be easier for players to file disputes directly through them or forum and get their issue solved on site.
Everyone in the branch should be given the right to place a new rule for the entire xG or just a server alone and the people on the forums should vote on it.
Now the most powerful part of this branch is the ability to look into the cases of the judicial and executive sectors and see what is unjust and who should be kicked out, banned ect..
I know this has a lot of loop holes, but if its considered or tested I will update it to the fullest potential and leave it flawless. The main thing I'm trying to get across is that ?No one, No one is above the rules/laws?. Everyone should be given a fair chance at everything. I don't care if you think I'm foolish or just physco (YAY!), I actually hope this will help bounce ideas off people and start to create or rebuild xG.
Thanks,
Snoopy
