      IRC Nickname: Lefty Group: Emeritus Posts: 3340 Member No.: 1055 Joined: June 30, 2008 Total Events Attended: 211    | As much as I like being an Elite Guardian, I deserve to be Emeritus. I asked for Emeritus. I am not the only one. As far as I know it can't be much more than this: Admin CP > Find User > Type Lefty2802 > Click Submit > Edit Details > Change Group > Submit If you click then that would be 7 clicks. Do note that this information is coming off of Invisionfree forums, so I know they can be a bit different from what WG is running. I am not the only one. I could name a handful of people who have requested something and their request has not been processed. If you want to look more accurate, get on the freakin' job. Seriously. 2 days after the day I requested to be Emeritus on and I am still an Elite. I can not say it enough. Simply do your freakin' work. --------------------      | ||||

 IRC Nickname: Gorgemaster Group: Elite Guardian Posts: 9840 Member No.: 3 Joined: December 26, 2007 Total Events Attended: 540 | Perhaps you should remember something. One: All of the staff are stretched out of their fucking minds running the Olympics which starts on Sunday. You can't possibly know how much work there is to be done, but as well as doing all the WG stuff, the Staff have been setting it ALL up on TBE forums. Two: The rule is three days, just like with leaving, in case you change your mind. Three: Posting rudely will not get it done quicker. In fact i'm going to go and do something more important than this request (ie: accepting 3 applications).... --------------------    | ||||

 IRC Nickname: Owennnn Group: Emeritus Posts: 1447 Member No.: 37 Joined: December 30, 2007 Total Events Attended: 55 | It's alot more tha 7 clicks, it needs to be changed on both memberlists as well. And you'd also need to type your RSN, which if you typed would be 9 keys, or if you click it would be 9 clicks on the windows on screen keyboard. I can exaggerate too. -------------------- | ||||

Its a fair point. That rule's been around a while. The council are only human, they're not paid to do it. They've got their hands full as it is. Anything more than 3 days, OK its worth re-mentioning it. Its a lot more efficient to do it in bulk, hence wait for a number of people, because it does need changing it on memberlists as owen says.
No lies mate, i've lost respect hearing that. That's a disgraceful way to talk to the guys who work their asses off to do charity to you. What gives you the right to give them orders?

| IRC Nickname: Lefty Group: Emeritus Posts: 3340 Member No.: 1055 Joined: June 30, 2008 Total Events Attended: 211 | A few things: The original post was a lot more serious and flaming than I wanted it to be, or planned for it to be. Excuse me and sorry about that. However, a serious post like this might make someone remember to stay conscious of things such as this, or it could make someone not do it on time just in spite. To George: I did post 6 days ago. :S To Owen: Add in the memberlists and you add about 20 clicks and a handful of keystrokes. I would say add 5 more clicks if you forget the names and passwords to the memberlists. I would like to note that there is a member who requested ex-member or emeritus over a month ago. Unless the issue was resolved and no one was told, then yeah, excuse me on this issue too. -------------------- | ||||
