Brian, we tried to populate the Saxtonizer server twice yesterday. And it crashed both times.

Alright, judging by the amount of butthurt going on in here, here's what I have to say.

 

@@HanYolo If the complaints are getting to the point where it warrants a ban, do it for like, an hour. There's no reason to day ban someone for questioning your actions, especially if there was no prior warning or heads-up that a change was going to happen. A day is over the top for something that could have been remedied by simply saying you were making a change or testing something.

 

Before making any major server changes, check with the staff of that Division for their opinion or thoughts. This will minimize the amount of harassment or criticism you receive if you were to just do it without mentioning it.

 

@@African ; do not start an argument with the Division Leader ingame via Admin All Chat, let alone any other Staff Member. Not only is this unprofessional, but it shows subordination and may potentially cause players to critically judge our Staff. If you have a problem, don't make it public. Take it to Steam Chat or forums. There is no reason you should start a vote for the sole intent of making Brian look bad.

 

It is expected that the Staff put just as much time and effort into our Servers as the Division Leaders, it is supposed to be a joint effort, not one or the other. You're right, it won't happen over night and it sure as hell won't just happen out of the blue. You need to be dedicated to spending any amount of time on a Server (1~2 hours at least) almost every day to ensure a steady amount of players to populate it. Don't spend a large portion of your time, spread it out over the course of a week.

 

I don't want to see you two battling it out ingame. Let this be a warning.

 

TL;DR - Brian, let your Staff know what changes you are planning on making or if you are testing something. They have just as much the right to know. Do not deal over-the-top bans as well. Gag > kick > ban (for at least 60). African, don't bad mouth the Division Leader ingame in Admin All Chat for all of the players to see. This displays immaturity and unprofessional traits.
