Patrik Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 I was an admin in a server of GTA San Andreas Multiplayer back in 2016, was fun helping people, but you don't earn anything and you are pushed to dedicate more time for administration duties than playing, so i resigned 😛 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Withywarlock Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 In virtually all the guilds I've been a part of in World of Warcraft have I obtained an officer rank. I guess that's some sort of administrative privilege. Thankfully it's not required much in the way of drama, but overseeing guild "merges" causes me to taste sick in my mouth every time I recall them. But as for a server admin.... not that I recall, no.

I swear that every time I play some sort of game with guilds, I always get chosen as the leader or vice leader at some point. I remember when I was in Eden Eternal and I joined some random guild and the leader was about to quit and he just randomly handed me the leader position. Because of the type of person I am, I didn't disband the guild as he wished. Instead I tried to get them to vote for a leader from the members that were there and they still chose me lol.

It's always the people who aren't paying for services always want the most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shagger Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 I was a game officer in another community a few years back. That included forum duties, a role in member commincaties between the fourm, PC and console users and led an MMO guild on Neverwinter for the community for a while. I liked it, but that community stated to sink and grew more toxic. Ended up getting myself banned for questioning the way the community was being managed. I enjoyed it at first, but good riddence to 'em. I'm much happier here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How long were you there for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, being an administrator in a gaming platform isn't something that I have any kind of flair for because it's definitely going to very tiring for me dealing with a lot of people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
