Community Advisory Program - Night - Aug 9, 2019




RE: Community Advisory Program - Montyfatcat - Aug 9, 2019

Certainly a step in the right direction


RE: Community Advisory Program - Project - Aug 9, 2019

cool, indeed a step in the right direction


RE: Community Advisory Program - Nudel - Aug 9, 2019

Great to see that steps are made to include the community into the "background" stuff.


RE: Community Advisory Program - Cole - Aug 9, 2019

Has been needed for a long time, glad it's finally here.


RE: Community Advisory Program - Bambo - Aug 9, 2019

Looks good.


RE: Community Advisory Program - Ollie630 - Aug 10, 2019

It seems like a step in the right direction and a good way to get the community involved, nice Big Grin

I honestly don't feel like this is a great idea, but I don't make policy.


The only method to applying community input that seems successful would be to take a page from Warframe and just periodically ask for their input.  Since we have a suggestions section, this is already half met as a condition.

Limelight has dwindled in size for past few months because they aren't getting new players to join ... and stay. I find it appropriate to involve more of the current community to provide input into matters that could drastically improve a player's experience. Some of the higher staff haven't been experiencing the gameplay for Limelight, so they need our help to try and improve it. While they could achieve this through discussions on the forum and discord, they want to create a group of people that they can rely on to be helpful and constructive and not disruptive in the thinking process. It's quite simple. I don't see any negatives about this. They can control and monitor the people in the group, make it smaller or bigger, or whatever they need to make this group be a positive idea machine to help make improvements.

(No disrespect intended.)

Sometimes me and you don't see eye to eye Jokhah, but as much as I agree with the advisory program literally what you said gets my thinking in a nutshell.

I personally don't understand why there's a whole application system for this. Considering the server peaks below 20 on a high-pop day I think they should be taking all of the help that's offered to them, not denying people. Surely having an open group and then moderating people depending on their input in the discussions is a lot smarter than denying people depending on factors such as "causes too much tension". No offense to some of the people I've seen added to the role but I've seen maybe 2 or 3 out of the 6 or 7 people actually get involved in discussions previously.

So I have a question to the liaisons, why would you deny help from people when the server needs as much as it can get? And what's the point of having this application process?

I've tried messaging the liaisons, which I don't see why there are liaisons for the program by the way, but they appear to be ignoring myself and others about it so I guess here is the next best place.

This whole thing seems a bit convoluted tbh. This community has maybe like 100 active users, and there's literally like 15 types of positions a person can have, it's just so excessive. Why are ya'll building another gap between the community and the admin team. If the community had like 50k people I could get that there would need to be hierarchy, but really at this level the community should have the say in everything that goes on.

 I just don't get what's being protected by not sharing everything with everyone?

The only competition is FL and they likely won't care, or will copy LL anyway if they think it's a good enough idea once released. The only thing ya'll are doing is putting up walls and closing doors to your biggest supporters, the community. 


The whole thing is just dumb lol, I've been away from LL for like 3 years and I get on and look at this - it just feels like things are getting more and more convoluted for literally no reason. 

Let me fix your problems and make this whole thing really easy: You have like 100-200 max active players, stop making it so overly complicated. You need three positions: Admin, Mod, Community. INTERACT and figure out how to make this community good, there ya go.
