  • Important Changes to the Unit system
  • #19551

    It appears that I read this, then forgot. Wow.. Anyway, I’m going to start brainstorming the amount of points you should obtain in order to be able to be an applicant for OP u it. As well as other things that need to be temporarily added for OP unit.

    Thank you Ballistic!
    @theinfluence, the number of moderators will be dynamic based on the amount of active players, something like 1 mod every 50 players (also depending on the crowd’s behavior)

    BTW, I removed Michalukas and Unamix from the FM unit because of inactivity

    After brainstorming for a few days, I’ve come up with some numbers. Please note that this is experimental and not to be concluded.

    1. The AD applicant needs to earn the staff team’s trust/ability to be a part of the workforce as well as being active. (For most of the time) If we accept somebody, we don’t want him/her to be a nuisance and problem to the staff team and the civilians of Rival Rebels.

    Q: Rodol, when you mentioned points in the piece of text, is that the Reputation? It was a bit unclear to me.

    “OK, we need to put together the requirements to apply for the OP unit. People who wants to join our Ranks need to have the basic 15 rep to get AD, but on top of that they need X amount of points (to be determined by us) based on their RR promoting activity over a month or two. Something that we all agree equals the effort you guys made to get early access (quite a bit!).”

    2. By setting the bar in the “Changes” category, I feel like the user should have had done enough to have helped out the community in order to move up in the future and evolution of the game. (This will be another factor determining if the user will have been accepted into the staff team) On top of that, the user should have at least 100-150 posts. (Not spam of course)

    The staff team accepting the AD applicants into the administration should be a lot more strict.

    I hope this initial idea of creating a well-balanced system for OP administration methods helped out Rodol and the staff team.

    Feel free to change what I have said.

    I’m pretty sure by “points”, you meant points as in points allocated through Social Media. I believe that is a judgemental thing, so a good estimate could be about 10 – 20. Also, I feel as if we should give them X amount of points when promoting the game through various Social Medias. However, this is just a suggestion, it doesn’t have to be final. Thanks!

    Yes, right, let’s say we used to ask 10 questions and one needed to answer 7 correctly to become OP. We need something similar, an applicant needs 10 promotion points to be accepted, and additionally they need to be active to remain in the unit. So the applicant links 10 or so interactions or participations in any social media, or invites someone to join or something and the IC, depending on the quality etc of the 10 links provided, accepts or denies the application.
    Bad links, spamming, or linking within this forum count against the total points. Good points could be answering Rival Rebels questions in videos that are not on my channel, or something like that. Bringing in friends or schoolmates to join should also count as good points. The amount of points needed is something the IC should decide.

    Maybe we should have the applicant create a well-written application too? Our IC members could judge that additionally as well as the Advertisements.

    Sounds good, the only problem I see is that its hard to write an application to the Outpost Police Unit when the unit duties are not defined yet, but we could assume that the OP members will be doing some sort of an in-game roleplaying soft moderator. And only when the player is “on duty”, playing as cop, WE DO NOT NEED FULL TIME ADMINS FOR THE GAME or FULL TIME OPs. Its very important to understand that this is and will always be Voluntary and Temporary ROLEPLAYING, not a job of any kind. (So in other words the application is not a job application).

    Hey Rodol,
    I don’t really understand what I have to do to get OP now and want to ask if you could explain it to me or so. It would be nice to get reply from you and I really like the RR game and want an early access and so and OP would be super nice.

    You can’t rn.  Also, you need to understand, OP is more than early access to the game and whatnot. It’s a responsibility.  You need to understand that.

    @rhodes3.
    Let me clear things up (for you and for everybody else including me :).
    First of all, the Rival Rebels Game Alpha early access program (also known as early funding, alpha-access, paid-alpha or beta), is NOT READY yet. I’m still sorting out Legal, Financial and Software related issues (but you don’t have to worry because i’m getting there).

    Anyway, welcome to AD. Now that you have +15 rep you can apply to be accepted into the OP unit (Outpost Police), I drafted an incomplete OP unit description above in this thread, that will change in time and evolve with the game.
    The IC unit members are in charge of the approval process.
    At the moment we are setting up and testing out the new system (because the old one was meant for the RR mod servers and not for the new game). We stopped accepting new members 8 months ago (Titancon was the last one to be accepted under the old system). If you are willing to, you could be the first member to be approved under the new requirements.

    But to be clear, being part of the OP unit DOES NOT GRANT EARLY ACCESS, NEITHER FREE ACCESS. But it puts you in queue for different packages and / or special PERKS on a case by case basis, meaning, I know everyone around here, I recognize effort and I’m very fair.

    BTW I deleted two messages that were off topic.
