TWD changes - Information thread

[Wage]

When are you going to allow double squadding or remove twd join time between squads. We have like 5 twd games all day and you guys still trying to enforce rules from 2001. :\

why are we keep going back to res limits when we should be addressing this. Why do I have to wait 24h to register/join squad to dd and keep zone active, who benefits from this? the player? the squad hes joining? hes already going to leave the squad hes on so it doesn't affect them. If we need to get with the times and adapt to new res limits, then you should adapt to the shitty population numbers and remove these restrictions. Heck I still don't see the downside of double squadding? more twds? Just prevent double squadding on twl squads. Stop wastin time on trivial shit, countless WBS say that changing the res limit is bad. And shit ton off ppl want double squadding.

Every important piece of information I've posted in this thread I've also edited to the original post with dates. As well as posted as news to twd.trenchwars.org or even trenchwars.org AND added periodical zoners in-game about them.
I've also informed captains about the roster limits with a MessageBot message that won't disappear when you simply read it, but stays there on record. If they choose to ignore it, so be it.
I asked staff members, TWD Ops specifically, to inform their squads of the existing poll to get as many votes in as possible.

The resolution poll is the first of its kind: in-game, TWD-restricted, and unavailable for manipulation. Since the bot was just modified, it's also a test to see how we can use it in the future regarding sensitive issues like this.
We "keep going back to res limits" because, like many issues, the subject keeps popping up. In private, in public, on forums. This time we have a way to make it so not only forum registered, the most vocal and social people have a say, but everyone in TWD do. If they want.

Bot was down for an embarrassing reason for maybe 5 hours last night. I'm sorry it, along with other reasons he can't seem to comprehend, makes delectable think there's "still people in wrong positions of staff" to make right decisions and unable to move the game forward.
I'm fairly sure I've said it many times, I listen and weigh every idea that's on paper, readable and something I'm able to go back to. I also don't do it alone. I ask for opinions, like with this resolution case I approached Exalt who is a vocal 'against' -man about it.

Double squadding is a thing I've been going back and forth about. Issue lies in the fact that if we allow it, we'll never be able to take it back from staff side of things, unless we completely wipe all TWD registrations clean and force everyone to re-register.
It also conflicts with plans we currently have: TWD ratings, possible TWD seasons etc.

so you have to be an active twd player in order to vote. novel idea.

I have said previously that a good test would be to make twdd and twdd2 no-res limit and make twdd3 a res limit to see what people would do. I doubt teams would play in twdd3 when twdd and twdd2 were open.
