Being a host of Trench Wars Radio, I'm going to have to side with staff on this one.
The truth is, somethings there's so much going on that it can be hard to keep track of everything. Someone may have PMed me asking for a shoutout, which I ended up not seeing. It happens, and on occasion people get mad about it. I'm not ignoring them, I just was too busy to see it.
You guys need to understand that sometimes there are other calls happening when you make a ?help or ?cheater command. If a staff member is already juggling a few, you can't expect their brain to be able to juggle all of those while asking you to wait a moment.
When police are offduty, they are not obligated to stop a crime they may witness. How could you guys be so selfish to say that the staff don't get any offduty time to play the game they help continue to exist? Remember, they do not get paid.
I know of staff who have to use an alias to play the game, otherwise they get no peace and quiet.
Besides, if you think you'd make a better staff member, why don't you become one yourself?
edit: On many occasions I have made help calls regarding things that have nothing to do with this game, and the staff have been friendly enough to respond. They didn't have to, but they did.

this is the mentality tw staff has needed to move away from for years.Originally posted by Stabwound View PostDo you really think staff members should have to drop everything to answer calls?
yes, the 'im far too busy to answer your help calls' one.
DO YOUR FUCKING JOB, ASSHOLES.
you arent -entitled- to be on staff, and if you arent doing your job, you dont deserve to keep it.
and if you really, REALLY feel that youre far too busy to help anyone, bring back ZHs to do your job FOR you.

I'm not talking about myself; I'm talking about staff in general. I personally haven't even played this game in months, but I do take help/cheater/twd calls on a regular basis. The point I was making is this- this is an online game, and the primary reason every staff member is even in this community is because they wanted to play a game. davie was talking about sending ?help calls and witnessing staff members playing elim etc and not answering his calls. Do you really think staff members should have to drop everything to answer calls? I could see there being an issue here if staff members were paid to answer any and all help calls, but this is not the case, and sometimes people want to just chill out and play a game. I don't see how you can possibly have issue with this.Originally posted by Downfall View PostIm usually not one to bitch about staff, but come on if you joined staff you want to help the zone out. If you dont wanna help anymore leave. At least then people can bitch to the community about how no one is volunteering to help the zone out instead of creating threads where blank bitches about blank (a new one comes up every week).

Just because you see a staff member playing in pub or whatever doesn't mean they have to drop everything and answer a help call if one comes through. Get over yourself.

actually stabwound just never logs off so i imagine he scrolled up after coming back to the computer and saw that many calls in his buffer
some unappreciative brats really just need to get over themselves and learn to use google

so stabwound left 6 + 1 = 7 total help calls go by unanswered. his excuse is that he let them all go unanswered, so davie's help call being unanswered is alright too. once a retard, always a fucking retard. why are you on staff again?

There is staff on at all times when members are in the zone. There is a .?help system which staff members actually respond to and help out the members of its zone.

So umm... what exactly is the purpose of staff? Somekind of treehouse-club?Originally posted by Stabwound View PostAlso, this may come as a shock to you, but the staff in this game are unpaid and are NOT obligated to answer your questions.

P help: (Davie) (#dtt): for some reason on tw, the sound keeps cutting between working on both speakers, then only 1, then sometimes just no sound at all. anyone that can help?
C 2:RoboHelp> ...
P cheater: (PubBot4) (Public 4): Public: (Davie): ni**ers
I censored the above.
This was straight from my logs without any editing at all other than the censoring. You said 'ni**ers' RIGHT after doing the help call, and I'm 100% certain that you did that on purpose because you knew something like this would happen and you wanted to run with glee and post all about it on the internet forums. Good job.
Furthermore, I'm not entirely sure what time of the day this all took place, but judging by the time you made this thread it was probably in the very early Sunday morning. The staff chat was completely dead at the time; there were about 6 other help calls that went unanswered before yours. Also, this may come as a shock to you, but the staff in this game are unpaid and are NOT obligated to answer your questions. Just because you see a staff member playing in pub or whatever doesn't mean they have to drop everything and answer a help call if one comes through. Get over yourself.

The upperstaff is working on a solution to all the problems. Most of these SHOULD be fixed in the next week or so.
