The GM-Team is always happy to welcome new people in the RPOL Social Network. The GM-Team is composed of the Primary GM and a group of Co-GM who facilitate the day to day functions of the RPOL Social Network. Give us PM if you need any help or assistance in any part of the RPOL Social Network. We will respond to your PM as soon as we can.
The following are the current members of the GM-Team
Primary GM
- Zephydel
Co-GM
- Wildcard
- CuteSue
Like the Primary GM, the Co-GM has authority in this game. However, they also have responsibilities in this game as well.
- They both have to make sure that the RPOL Social Network is running well in compliance with the Admin's rules and policies (For example the RPOL Terms of Service)
- They both have to make sure that the RPOL Social Network is running well in complaince with it's own rules and policies.
- They both have to make sure that the players are well accommodated. and treated with equal respect. This is especially towards newcomers to the RPOL Social Network.
- They both should listen carefully to the concerns and suggestions of other players, no matter how serious or trivial it may be. But at the same time, they have to be decisive to avoid obstruction.
- They both should be an example to other members in the RPOL Social Network. They should at all times conduct themselves in a calm, polite, clear and dignified manner. As much as possible they should both be professional.
- They both should not engage in practices that are deceptive, unfair, self-serving or detrimental to other members. Again, they both should serve as an example to other members since they are in a position of leadership.
- While they both have authority, they are not supposed to be petty tyrants either. They should not absolutely impose their will (especially their opinions or their beliefs) on other players.
- The Primary and Co-GM(s) should always consult with each other. This is especially when new updates and changes are to be made in the RPOL Social Network, it's rules and policies and when dealing with serious problems.
- The Primary GM and Co-GM(s) should always keep each other posted concerning information inside and outside the RPOL Social Network. This is especially with new updates concerning RPOL itself.
The above guidelines are both fundamental and important to the Primary GM and Co-GM.
The Primary and the Co-GM(s) are equally accountable to each other. The Primary GM cannot be removed from position. But if they do not abide by these guidelines, the result will be the complete failure and discontinuation of their game. On the other hand, a Co-GM can be removed if (and only if) 3 conditions are met. These conditions are...
- Completely objective and irrefutable evidence of serious wrongdoing
- Complaints from 3 or more members
- Permission from the Primary GM (as an arbiter) to remove them as Co-GM
Co-GM(s) are also protected from any false complaints against them just like any other member in the Social Network.
There should at least be a GM for every 12 players in the RPOL Social Network. Right now the social network has the Primary GM and 2 Co-GM. if the social network has 36 or more players, a player will be selected or appointed as new Co-GM by the GM-Team as soon as possible.
The GM-Team will select or appoint a player to be a new Co-GM based on the following criteria. All of these criteria should be met. These criteria can change from time to time but the changes will be announced.
- The number of posts they have should be higher than most players.
- They are willing to take on the responsibility of being a Co-GM
- They should at least demonstrate these abilities... Impartial. Reasonable. Responsible. Accountable. Ethical. Helpful. Humble. Polite. Decisive.
- Has never broken the rules and policies of RPOL or the RPOL Social Network.
