In response to the above post.

This entire situation GK is in is pretty well laid bare by the walls of text in this textbook of a thread.

I propose to take over all leadership aspects of the clan. Applications will still be handled by a volunteer to do the paperwork.

It is made quite clear there is no real leadership currently. Hell I cannot even find a thread or on the roster who is actually "leading" the clan right now. If we cannot even find out who is running the show, how can anything get done or any issues be handled?

Reasons why I would take over leadership:
No more bureacratic nightmare.
Fair to say I am pretty unbiased when dealing with people. I hate everyone equally.
I currently am the sole person funding the server (minus the few small donations)
I have been running the servers for years now.
I have plenty of plans to improve GK as a whole.
I have full ability/access to make any changes I want to the servers.
I do not like drama and would nip that shit in the bud as soon as it started.
I have never "gone on a power trip".


So here is an official mandate to make it happen. Please cast your votes and let's see how it plays out.

Simply put, I am sick of seeing this clan slowly die away. Something needs to happen.

Re-Structure GK into an actual multi-gaming community. No more ones and twos playing games by themselves. We will begin implementing official groups for various games. Leadership will be appointed by an application/interview process. It will most likely be appointed to the impromptu current leader of the group, but we shall give everyone a chance at it. 
Leader of that group will manage and handle every aspect of his/her section. Leader will be required to report to myself or a delegate of my choosing on current status, ideas on ways to improve it, etc.
Any game sections requiring servers will be granted on a as needed basis and to those that show consistent growth and activity. Meaning a brand new group fresh off the floor will not be awarded multiple high pop servers, but an established one that is showing good activity and decent server pop can then request additional servers.

There will be additional staff roles to fill other than just "lords and nobles". Such as recruiters, public relations, advertisers, streamers, etc.

No more elections. Staff appointments will be done for whoever is best for the job until a time comes for replacement.

All decisions are final. I may call for votes to gauge the community desires but by no means is it a set in stone outcome. This does not mean people cannot voice opinions, it just simply means do not get pissy if your way of thinking did not go into play.

There will be no "quotas" to fill for the sections. The only thing expected of the groups is to actively participate on the forums, TS3 and events. 

Rules will be covered under the standard GK code. Any "game section specific" rules will be implemented and handled by the game leaders. 

Overhaul of the GK website/forums. Forums will be cleaned up. Relevant information will be higher up on the chain. Forums/landing pages, etc will no longer focus GK M&B section with smaller game divisions shoved wherever they can fit.

TS3 Cleanup. We will be scrapping all un-needed tags. I love my tags but sadly they do introduce clutter and make it difficult for users to see who is what. The only outfacing tags that will be shown are for GK Community members, Community Staff, Game Division Leaders, Game Division Staff. At most, any one person should have no more than 3 tags.
Channels will also be cleaned up to reflect the overhaul.

Cleanup of clan code of conduct and policies. Cleanup of the "processes" for handling issues. Things will be a bit more relaxed around here and not have to step on eggshells.

I have already begun some of this inside my own game division section for Ark. We are slowly building a community there.

These are some of the changes I wish to make. I believe if we can finally knit this community back together with the various games being played out there, we will become a functional clan once more. Obviously the plans I have are way more detailed and involved, but I simply lack the desire to type out every single aspect. Here it is in a nutshell basically.

All in all, I genuinely do hope people see this clan needs changes for it to stay alive. I know people may be scared things may resort back to a dictatorship. Honestly you should know by now after running these servers for this long and my general presence here, I have always been neutrel and professional and have never banned someone simply because I didn't like them. Nor have I ever abused any admin powers, both in office nor on the game servers themselves. There is a distinct difference between a dictator and a leader. I think you know which I would be.
