How to become electable to be a GM!

People is asking us "make me a GM!" or "can I be a GM?" or "how one is becoming an admin?"

Don't think that been a Game Master(admin) is only fun. It's mostly a duty. You must not use that power to profit your character or your friends in game or anyone else. More simple: if you want to be a GM just because you want to cheat, then FORGET IT!

If you really want to be one, it is necessary though by no means sufficient that you comply with at least eight of the following prerequisites:

• Be an old player, at least half year, and having more than 500 hours playing time wich means you was a hardcore player-beta tester
• Belong on top 10 on HOF
• Help people and be nice as more as possible
• Finish all existing quests in main game server, so you can know almost everything when ppl is asking you hows&whys
• Report bugs and if you can, fix bugs
• Create maps or sprites or images or tilesets(generaly graphics)for game
• Create music for game
• Give ideas and feature requests
• Be fair to everyone as most as possible
• Behave nice and with patience
• Create code for feature requests
• Create new NPCs or/and new quests
• Create stories
• Host a server to test new things before go in main game
• Host main game server
• Add text or edit in wiki. Like guides, refactory, stories, update them

In any case, as previously stated, it is up to the development team to decide who will actually become a GM.

And remember: contributing to this wonderful project (from which it has been said in at least one occasion that its reputation precedes it ;)) should be reward enough in itself.

How to keep your GM status

• Never abuse your powers. And don't forget that your use of your GM powers is logged
• Talk with other admins and share your thoughts
• Be active and when you punish someone, have evidence and be fair
• Don't give weapons, armor, potions, money or any other items to players with no fair reason. Tell them to play the game, give some advice but don't spoil the fun giving all secrets. They must find it themselves
• Don't do favors to specific players and treat bad to others with no good reason
• When you think you must do something serious, like permanent ban an account-player, contact with the other GMs and discuss it
• Respect the others GMs and expect same respect from them. Demant respect from players
• inspect players, punish annoying ones, reward the good ones
• Organize monster raids or other events or games

Final thoughts

You will notice that the word "fair" is many times above. Not without good reason. It's important. All above are proof that you love the game and you want to do anything possible to help it grow. Then you deserve to be a GM.

Also, to be a high GM, all other existing GMs must vote or agree to add you on the team. So, earn their trust.
