Apparently some people think that ladder admins don't contribute a lot.
http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=83161¤tpage=49#965
Now lets make something clear, ladder admins are THE HARDEST WORKING ADMINS on iCCup they have to sort through HUNDREDS of complaints every week sometimes upwards of 700 and never get any thanks for doing it. All they ever get are people posting on the complanit against an admin forum going "OMG ADMIN MADE BAD DECISION." And guess what they still do it because they want to help the community.
I don't care about you belittling me because I know that it's wrong but don't even think of belittling the ladder admins who work so hard for -you- and get no thanks. Thats just wrong man, wrong.
PS this isnt aimed completely at meathook but I"ve seen people who seem to think that being an admin is easy and that they do it just to get a cool tag. Those type of people are gone within a couple days every time because they don't do anything. The ones who remain work hard for YOU and never get any thanks.

rawr! agreed. admins do a lot of work, and a lot of it goes without appreciation.
|
I think its awesome people are admins! I would never want to be an admin, like have responsibility and work to do all the time. I apreciate you help the community, keep it up!
WHEN IS THE ICCUP SERVERS COMING BACK??? AND WHERE'S THE WEBSITE
|
The ladder admins are like any other sport referees. Nobody notices them until they make a mistake.
It definitely shouldn't be that way. Keep up the good work!!

Ladder admins: effective for a week til the novelty wears off
|
Yeah, I can vouch for the work admins do, I worked for ICCup for a month before I realized the work got to me.
There literally are hundreds of replays to go through and comments are bitches and moans about hackers most of the time

You're right.
Meathook is a faggot and he has been banned.
|
When Lineage 2 (MMO) Private servers went down people gathered on IRC to play flash games together =D good old times.
|
I agree with this ban and this thread.
|
Yeah raelcun they don't really realize the work that goes into being a ladder admin. I was a LA for like 3months or so until the work put together with school was too much for my schedule. Its tough to maintain that job and takes a lot of dedication.
|
A very justified rant.
Thanks for the work.
|
I was a CAT super admin for about 6 months, and it was during the time when oblivion first hit the server. I had to of spent 7hrs a night handling abuse complaints, and searching for abusers. I didn't even have time play during all of that. Eventually I had to go back to working out of town, and stepped down. It was by far the hardest internet job ive had lol

At least you can put it on your resume, right? Volunteer work is volunteer work.
Maybe TL can have an international "Ladder Admins Day" where we celebrate and raise awareness to ladder admins who are crazy and work hard. I had no idea there were so many complaints though... I don't think I've ever played against someone I thought was hacking. It's gotta be like 500 false alarms of idiots accusing people of map hack.
PS: As much sympathy as I feel for you, I really don't like the way you handle this. There's no sense in getting mad about burdens you asked to have.

Yeah, meathook was a bit of a douche in that thread.
But there are other people in the thread who are just voicing their opinions in a fairly good manner. We KNOW you do it all for free, but surely you want iCCup to be seen as a reputable, professional site.. and have the courtesy to inform the community on when things aren't working etc.

I'm only getting mad because I don't like to see the other members of my team who work so hard get degraded like that and I will stand up for them and tell everyone just how much respect they deserve when it is not being accorded to them, I think it is shameful to do otherwise.
