  1. So the first part is agreeable the others are not I'll try to brainstorm a better solution
  2. True, to be fair I am shooting relatively blind in terms of a full understanding or scope. However I do think it is a bit concerning if someone was doing alot in 2 sections and then disappears for like a week or two, it leaves a big whole in more then one section. That is really my only concern.
  3. To put this simply this topic will be comprised in different suggestions as it is tackling alot of different areas for suggestion in one topic. Melding Forums/Discord and the Game: This is speaking as somebody who has been playing the game since before Discord existed for PRO [2016] now [off and on through the years]. The forums are actually have a vast amount of information. Important things such as rules for multiple aspects of the game. I think on these kind of games it's important to understand the rules before you really envelope yourself in playing. Typically what I would suggest is this. Members with Registered forum accounts [with above 25 posts, number can be changed] + A discord account can have extra access to a text discord channel where they can get the chance to win maybe a free pokemon [lvl5] with good IVs and an optimal nature/moveset , or items like 20 rare candies or something. Through giveaways maybe one or two times weekly. Example of this from another game: https://imgur.com/u8TFZli As you can see to enter the draw you have to use the emote to be entered then at the end of X amount of time someone is chosen from those who entered. I think this would make people use the forums and discord alot more, which is good rather then them waiting for something to go wrong with their account and then trying to navigate the forums then. It would help meld all 3 things into the idea of playing the game. I would also like to see an NPC in the tutorial when you first make an account advertise the forums and discord that the player would have to talk to before proceeding [kinda like oak under the waterfall], aswell as saying what they are useful for. I don't think we should be necessarily make them mandatory however, integrating them into the community should be a bit more of a priority. Streamlining Appeals: I think overall from what I've heard is there is usually a big black and white between players that do something wrong in this game, most of the time it's either the player has done something wrong and therefore should be banned [60-70%], or the player has done something that can be talked about and could be talked about to resolve [30-40%]. However due to this being completely done on forums this process could take days rather then hours. Due to how Forums are setup generally. What my suggestions for this would be. All staff members should have a Discord account. A separate Discord should be made just for staff to be in [for communication] The format of the application for applying for appeals should be changed to include discord names. Every rank should only be able to be DM on discord if they have the person on their discord friends list When a rank accepts taking a case, they add the person on discord and the case can probably be handled within 1-2hrs. The rank copy pastes the conversation onto topic via screencaps once completed and locks topic. Conversations rather then posts generally drop the time of dead air between posting and allows both Game Masters and Community Cords to process everything faster. Once the matter is completed the user can be deleted from the Discord Friends list of that staff member so they can't receive DMs from them again. Having all Staff on discord would allow all of them to talk and communicate more amongst themselves in real time, and higher Staff delegate work if something needs fixing directly or something needs to be handled directly. Forum Template for Discipline Appeals What is your Discord name: What is your IGN: What server are you on: If you don't know why you were banned please look here before completing this post https://dashboard.pokemonrevolution.net/dashboard/ Please list the reason you were banned in your dashboard: In your own words what caused you to get banned, and please list why you are appealing it [honesty goes along way] : You will be contacted in the next 24 hours by a Game Master, do not spam this forum. Rank Suggestions: I guess my biggest suggestion would be to make sure a someone should really only be moderating one section at a time. Generally I believe alot of people can't get 100% of their effort to something if they need to put effort elsewhere at the same time. Say for example someone is a Game Master, Trade Moderator, Moderator, Community Cord. They should not be able to moderate multiple sections. For a game generally this large putting that much on someone is difficult. Plus if they go missing [say on vacation, or they have a real life situation pop up] 2 sections of moderation are left scrambling to take over anything that is going wrong. This doesn't mean that those people couldn't take other ranks elsewhere. Example, a trade moderator could be a pixel artist too, or a Moderator could be a Mapper etc. We should also make it clear the community what these ranks do, some are obvious but a topic with that would be good aswell. [forgive me if there already is one]. Hopefully these things can help the game and hopefully some are eventually implemented. Hopefully this helps a bit ~ Ryan
