Well i'm back from a long time of inactivity but before of that i remember the excellent work of Shoo1stask2nd on G!X, also as i know him he would be perfect for being a supreme of G!X

In my opinion it would be nice to have Shoot as a supreme because of his respectful and friendly way of being and the support he has given through the clan's history.

Nothing else to say but, he just deserve it lol.

yeah i totally agree! shoot does an awesome job and is dedicated. he treats everyone fair and trys hard to keep the server running smooth :>

Whipped this up for giggles.

Agreed with everyone else here, Shoot totally has my vote for it!

Alright, ofcourse he has been owner for years and he is loyal and stuff, but promoting him up to supreme of G!X??? Im against this though.
Yes, i know Shoot is awesome fella, and could be perfect for that spot, but maybe some lower spot, not straight to supreme. Like General of Owners, like Blitz was back in old days.

Think about it.

If i would be able to vote for this, Shoot would be the man.

He is the only owner at the moment. Supreme of owners, being himself? Idk, I just disagree with that. Also, Would love to see ya visit Blue sometime soon MoHawk. Recall too! It sounds like you're making the decision on your own to me. He deserves the spot.

In my opinion, putting shoot at supreme spot ASAP isn't a good idea ( no offense conrad).
Shoot's been acting like supreme inside the game.. But the game isn't the only place a supreme administrate. The owner's function is to make sure that the server he owns is running properly.. That's why he gets acess to HIS server config!
As you may have noticed, Recall and Mohawk aren't so active in game servers, but they check the forums regularly and the most important part: I'm absolutely sure that they check the server stats whenever they can!

PS: Shoot you are an outstanding owner and leader for our servers, I know you can be a supreme, not questioning that.. Only thing is that mohawk and recall are doing their jobs, but we all have a real life and we should put that in front of G!X. But I don't see anything wrong with the servers or the forum, so my vote is to stay like that.


THANKS

No offense taken. Let me point out some things though and ask a few questions if you don't mind.
'Behind the scenes' is important work, and I usually notice changes in anything with the forums. We need someone who is approachable in situations and someone who is willing to interact with his members.  I'm not saying MoHawk and Recall aren't in touch with us, I'm just saying Shoot would make a great addition. I HAVE seen Shoot be a supreme not only in game, but on forums as well. He knows what he is doing. I'm thinking of Recall, MoHawk and Shoot being the three branches of government. Yes, Recall and MoHawk are doing their jobs, however I feel they could use a little help since life is always first. There is absolutely nothing wrong with changing things up, and seeing what comes of it. Don't be scared of change. Change is good. There is no way this could hurt G!X. Think about it.

- In short, If they are so busy with life, why not accept extra help? It would only give them more time to work out life situations. Get what I'm saying?

I just want to point out that Shoot has been doing a great job for Blue for quite a lot longer than a  few weeks - it's been several months now. He has logged over 200 hours on blue, which makes him one of the most active members in G!X overall.

I think the reason people are suggesting a move like this in the first place is that Green currently has some semi-major oversight issues - there needs to be someone who can approve (approve, not necessarily dictate) promotions or server setting changes.

It can really be a pain when you have a request and no one gets back to you for almost two weeks: https://et-gix.forumotion.net/t9677-green-server-people-please-read.

Nobody is suggesting that Recall and Mohawk are incompetent or anything like that - but for personal reasons neither of them is particularly active right now. And with Bulls also being fairly afk, this puts Green in a really bad spot in terms of leadership - changes such as promotions, server settings, maps, etc just can't be done if no one is around to do them.

Kaos

I'd love to see some more "actions" in G!X, maybe we do need a new (active) supreme.
It's not that Mohawk and Recall aren't active.. well, just for now then..

They've been very active before and I think the decission is up to them to choose if there's going to be a new supreme or not. Shoot has done great services to the clan, with loads of playing time etc. so if there would be a voting, I would vote for him. At green the most problems are solved now, there has been some promotions (july and pedo to ldr, anttica to c/ldr etc.) and I think that already helps quite a lot. These are the things that we need for now in green.. and maybe some map changes once every month or 2 months.. Duri and I already talked about it and we would like to take care of maps and stuff, if there would be someone who could change the maps etc.

Oh and G!X is getting better every day, We need to keep things going like this. I don't know if a new supreme will help to get the servers even better, but we could always try and see how it goes.

Edit:
Just played with Shoot.. He's much of a family-man, really liked it!
Rather have a nice guy who talks a lot and isn't the best player of the world than to have a selfish crappy one :p (not that Recall and Mohawk are selfish!! :p ) He has my vote.

Cheers!

I guess everyone has been waiting for my response...to this proposal so, here ya go.    

First off I want to Thank Conrad for putting this out there, the courage he has shown by asking questions to make G!X better for everyone proves he is a leader.

Secondly, I want to Thank everyone that has shown THEIR courage in supporting the proposal that has been put forth about me. I really appreciate the kind remarks and votes of confidence.

Some of you may not know so I will share a little about myself....I have been with G!X for many years now on and off. I started with this group about 5 years ago when I joined the Pink server under Bulls. He actually recruited me after I was playing on Orange and Pink for some time. Bulls left Pink and I became the owner not long after joining G!X. I was the Pink owner for about 5-6 months then Bullet and I thought Pink's activity was getting very low so I asked to become owner of Blue. From there I was really home. After being in Blue for over a year or so, G!X was all but empty, Bullet was gone, Devi was in charge, the servers were all but gone.....

This is when we decided to create our own Clan so I became a "Supreme" for our new clan. We had the new clan for about 8 months then all the members (besides me and couple others) had to go off to college and/or school so the decision was made to close our Clan.

Now, I am an owner and member again in my original Clan....

So you can see, I have a decent amount of history with ownership and being a supreme leader. I do have what it takes to fullfill this position. I am dedicated, committed and above all I'm active.

I know some say, Life first then G!X, and believe me I agree, but (as an example) that is why Blue has 2 leaders right now.  One reason is because they deserve that position and another is one can fill in for the other if they cannot be as active for whatever reason. Hell, maybe they just don't feel like playing that day.

I mention this because I don't want anyone in G!X, especially Recall and Mohawk, to get the impression I am trying or wanting to take over. I would appreciate the opportunity to help and possibly help the clan grow more.

I know this is turning into a book and apologize for that, but I want the members and Supremes to understand me and my position on this. I didn't make this proposal myself but I don't reject the idea either. I am one of, if not the most, active members we have on forums and the server (not green so much, but that would change).

I don't want to make sweeping changes, I don't want to "fix" everything, cause honestly not that much, if any, is wrong. I just would like the opportunity to keep G!X moving in the right direction. I want to see our family thrive, grow and become great again.

I have a lot of passion for G!X and what we do, the fun we have. I am fair, I am fun, I am experienced and I can do the job of a Supreme.

I realize it isn't really up to the G!X members to "vote" for me but I still appreciate the comments and support. Those of you that oppose the idea, I hope I get the opportunity to change your mind.

I ask that Recall and Mohawk (already seems to be good with it), consider some help from me and promote me to Supreme. I will NOT let them or G!X down.

Thank you again guys,
Peace, Love and Rum!!

Bump!

In my opinion, Shoot is such a great leader who's always there for everything G!X needs.

+1!

Bumping this up again. I feel like this has gone on along enough...

Conrad please give Mohawk and Recall some time. i believe Mohawk already said that Recall was on holiday. + Mohawk also said that he already is acting as supreme. I believe that it isn't necessary for Shoot to be called Supreme, what matters is what he does for G!X and that he already acts like that.

Well, in my opinion shoot is already acting like supreme.. And I agree with you july, we should give recall and mohawk some time..

:> hi guys i hope this all works out soon. Also i'd love to play et with recall and mohawk too! i've yet to meet those guys, we have been pretty active on g!x blue lately, you green nerds should stop by and play with me!

Allright. I will debate this with MoHawk and we will announce our decision as soon as we found an agreement. Meanwhile I would like to hear some opinions from other members too since its not only the supremes votes that counts.

He has my vote :>

Well I'm not Yet for or against. The thing I want to throw in this group is; what is the added value of promoting to Supreme, as Shoot already is someone who helps out in different situations and having a very important internal position in this community?

Well, he's a very active member.. Been around for years and years..
Been a donator for years,
He's a very nice player, in the sentence of, he's always talking nice to members and pubbers,

I think he's suitable for the job, and that he deserves it.

But well, that's how I see it

I agree for sure with that!

David is a perfect candidate to be a Supreme, he has spirit of leadership, an attentive, caring and very committed to the clan.

He has my vote.

lol, I first read the word "supreme" as "superman" xD
Maybe I should go to bed now :p

Oh and last time we were on Green and Shoot was on too, actually all the members who were on voted yes

Thank you Recall for the consideration and giving everyone a chance to voice their opinions.

oh btw remember, Optimism may sometimes be delusional, but pessimism is always delusional.

Love you guys - yes, even you too!!

Great guy, allways helps out, takes time to settup the server ( still dident put my maps on ) but yeah a person we blue members can relay on, sad we will lose him from the blue team but he will still be a blue YES

He has my vote - I think having another helping hand at a high level can only be a good thing

He's paid his dues. Yanno my vote. +1

shoot sir iam always with u , you got my vote too !

I'm against this decision. mainly because Shoot is too awesome, too knowing, too active, a good leader and has the best interest for G!X.


(yes i was sarcastic.. geez u are smart-_-)

Shoot got my vote
