Who wants to be part of the Outpost Universe team?
« on: March 23, 2005, 05:17:57 PM »
The Outpost Universe team is the group who decides the main stuff for the community. Like updates, priorities, what needs doing etc. These are the people who are ops in IRC and help people out with things as well.
Currently they are: Leviathan, op2hacker, Hooman, Mezza and Moogle.
People we were considering ourselves:
CK9, Baikon, xamlit and Eddy-B.
We feel now that this core team should be made up of more members and needs more involvement from others.
Who thinks they can help out to run things?

I don't have problems with the team, as long as I can have a voice and I am listened.

For example I'd like to know what is going on with updates and Op2 hacking stuff, so I can get involved when possible.

Yeah no worry we make sure people who are on the OPU team have an autovoice. they also get to wear an "OPU|" before their name in the channels.

As long as you stay devoted to the game and stay up to date everywhere (forums, IRC, etc) you have a good chance of getting in.

I dont think he asked to be in...

He just wants us to make sure we take on board what people suggest etc.

Also its hard to make the updates to what people want because mostly its new maps and stuff, which take a lot of time, and we havta to protise our projects.

And if your part of the community, your voice will be heard, but if you dont post to the issues we have posted (like many people havent) we cant fully know what everyone wants or feels.

and yes, your voice will always be heard.

A certain level of maturity and self control is required to be on the OPU|team.
I you can demonstarate this then we might consider it.

I'm often very mature...   If I get over... ah..  lets say EXCITED, I just leave, take a break...   Thats all I've ever done.  Of course, there are some people that really try my patience...

A bit of a delayed response, but yeah, they kinda do get on your case if you don't have the OPU name prefix.  <_<

I would like to help out with opu as well, and i'm not planning on going anywhere anytime soon. I know a bit of Html, some java and javascript, learning c++, and know ti-basic (68k).

EDIT: I agree with the names listed above too. (baikon, eddy-b, ck9, xamlit)

Drat! I wish I could use mIRC. I'll have to reformat my comp. Oh goodness. Well anyway, I don't really know anyone I can recommend, but I know I sure liked the people who were @ last time i was on mIRC. I talked with Moogle for a really long time. He's a really cool person. (Like all of you don't know that :-P). I can't be on this team, because I kind of forgot this place existed for... how long was it?

Too long, great to have you with us, as allways :)

We simpley dont need any more team members right now. And if we do take another one in, it will most likey be zigzagjoe, because he is the type of person this comunity needs, dedicated to OP2, allways online, able to help with diff things, etc

Great! you should hold a poll to see if people will support him being on the team.

See, I lack all of that - I don't have any knowledge of what you need, I am only online for short bursts of time followed by long periods where I don't even come to a forum. And I can't even play OP2.

That's it. I'm gonna learn Java and maybe then I'll be worth something to online communities.

ahem..   If you don't mind me asking, if the only person you are considering is ZigZagJoe, then why add 2 other contestants (namely me) and create this post?   Actually, your latest post seems to contridict what you have said earlier...

I'm confused??? isn't CK9 already part of the team? I idea was that CK9 is a GM, doesn't that make him part of the team already?

I haven't been around very long, but i'm always on IRC, so if ya'll decide to OPU| me, i'd appreciate it, I can help ya'll run things a bit. Not like I'm the BEST player either, but i show good sportsmanship when i get owned (easily 90% of the games i've played) so that's kinda a given that i'm mature :). I know PHP, HTML (duh) CSS, and miniscule MySQL. I'm workin on C++ as we speak. So i'm constantly 'upgrading' my knowledge.

If ya'll don't select me, I still uphold your choices of the other members you selected.
 
Holla at me if ya'll decide to choose a newb for OPU team.. lol

If your on the dev team you do not get a OPU| tag.(i wanted one too....owell).

and being a n00b dosen't mean much. I'm a realitve n00b to most of the people here. (1 month registered, 1+ years lurking)

You can still help out lots with-out being OPU|, and that would be great, more help the better.
