US timezone players (AUS kind of falls in there!!)

Can we have some opinions on how you think the server is being administrated from your point of view.
As far as i'm aware it's rarely moderated during US times. A lot of people complain.
There are 3 US moderators.
Are they active?
There are 0 US admins.
Can we have your opinion on how you think it's being moderated i.e. Moderators  / admins on during YOUR playing time.
Anyone can post.
Currently:
6 Euro mods.
3 Euro Admins
2 Aus Mods
3 US mods.
Try to rate server activity of the mods / admins who are generally on during your timezone on a scale of 1-10.
10 being the highest.
I think it's important to see where we are failing you.
I want to improve my activity but i don't feel comfy playing CVT all night to cover others.

The problem with US timezone is that we have too many timezones to cover. I think we have 6 in total? Ethan is east coast, I'm central, and Race is west coast. I have been away on spring break for the past two weeks so I haven't been too active. I usually see ethan on every now and then when I'm on. Race is on a lot but /afk 70% of the time lol. I became mod roughly a year ago. My score at the time was approximately 5200 and time spent online was ~1000 hours I think. Now my score is almost 5800 and 1950 hours spent online. So in 950 hours spent online I have done 600 missions. Is this active enough?

Whenever someone gets banned unintentionally in the US/AUS timezones, they usually have to wait 12 hours until the Euro admins can unban them.

I like the staff lindz ;p but an american admin should be awsome! and maybe more active staff during mid-day (GMT+1) like uhm.. 12:00 or 1:00pm , cuz then there are almost no staffs online ;p , but yeah like i said! i like how it is now

I'm on the east coast and when I'm online usually Rubber, RaceRX, Ethan, or Konali are online. They are usually very active in clamping vehicles or restoring other vehicles. When they're on, help comes within seconds. The problem is that they aren't always on. This is where Twido's staff member idea would be helpful. If there were staff members that were on a lot that could restore abandoned vehicles that would be helpful. There are many instances that I've found a lot of abandoned vehicles in my way or clamp able vehicles when no admin or mod was online. Also there have been a lot of rageing and spamming. If no admin is on them the spammers don't usually get any warns or get kicked. Ramming takes place too, /report does nothing if there's no admin.

And there's toll evasion. That pisses me off the most because the toll barely costs anything. If you can't handle $8-$15 you're damn poor.

The US timezone gaps are aware by all(most) staff, and i and other staff tried to suggest candidates for it, but no action from mick at this point.


The known gaps are 00:00 -02:00 GMT and 06:00-09:00 GMT. Eventhough we have staff for these gaps, we cannot force them to play. Everyone is free how fill in the hours they play.


About Admins, Yes i have said from day 1 when i became admin that if there would be a new admin it should be someone from US/AUS timezone simply to cover as best as possible.


Anyway US players are very cool:P:P

There you go, cop didnt have a car and one was spawned for him.
Admins are helpers, not monsters.

And i just want to take this moment that i have to thank you SO much for giving me the chance to be a moderator. I really enjoyed it, and although I made bad decisions (like playing MW3 too much haha xD), I really really did enjoy helping players like never before. You were my role model, you were the best admin I had seen in years, and there will never be another one like you.

It will take another to replace me, but I dont think CT can recover if they lose you bro, I wish you the best.

(Pretty sure you hear stuff like this every day XD You're like Chuck norris)

It's unfair that admins can teleport to buy house, and reset their own camping score, but we have to trust that they won't abuse it. We have to trust them anyway, because the server is in their hands. Without admins server is nothing.

Strato

Racer is from US so there's 1 mod.. we need more euro mods, because for the whole time there are no mods online.. just once for 3-4 hours gets someone on, that's it

Lindsey

I feel the same way about mick deff, i rarely see him on either. And when i do, there is little said. He's not a big talker to staff, so don't feel disheartened that he doesn't speak to you players as well.

Zacco getting a 3 doesn't surprise me, he has a lot of out of town work but when he's home he is active.

Yeah, i was kind of pointing towards the idea that an admin for the US would be a good idea. It's not about rank with us staff, it's about providing a good service, so it wouldn't bother me if i saw a US Moderator become admin at all.

It'd be good for the server i think.

Also just a side note there should be a east coast Aussie mod or someone in close area to it as between east and west cost of Australia there is 3hrs diff and both Viper and Sand are from WA.
