You can GM on your own server, but not many get the privalige (I did :D)

GM's come in 2 main roles... ISS & ISW. ISS = Ingame Server Support.... ISW = Ingame Server Watch (i think..).

An ISS can do almost jack shit apart from warping peeps, go invisible and try to help with general stuff. Only the ISW's can spawn shit, and they have to be in a position of complete trust (Niddy is an ISW as well I think).

On the plus side, I really miss the NF sessions - me agains like 15 peeps.. You ever seen a Tank in PA4 using a Holy Lighining and Parashock? Then switch to a CS or Pain Easer :D

Knowing Danae makes no difference tbh she only gets to vote if the application passes through carb first. I've applied twice first time carb turned me down flat but i've been chatting to carb and a lot of people on irc and stuff so carb let me know y he did let me through 2nd time so i can re-apply in a bit when i fix what he didn't like.

I gotta say that I am pissed @ Snowcrash 'cos he is basically turning down my request to become a GM again for totally unfounded reasons. I'll not go into that kind of thing here, but it does suck when someone has something stuck in their head and even though you show them evidence, they don't even acknowledge it :/

i asked danae once for help in IRC and she didnt even talk to me

she was like... "no"

then after 15 mins i gave up and left IRC....

it was about the mods deleting all of our leaving threads ( nexx , kyle , pete and me in 1 hour )... and thats after we`re all beta 4 players i thought they should at least respect it and read WHY we quit instead of just deleting em...
