Title: Making PAM Team gets refreshed by Community/staff votes every 2 months
Post by: daddy on 03 09, 2022, 11:30:51 am
This is an idea about the server and things related to players as the PAM team handles the cases related to players-staffs so we all are free to give our opinion and suggest better systems since I can see many players complaining about the PAM team why don't we make a better solution for all of us and I don't think PAMs would mind having a better system that will achieve satisfaction for both parties staffs/players.

Having a team that gets refreshed by staff/community every 2 months by voting and reviews same as what happened with SO Team (http://SO Team) with Cons & Pros Like HSO Applications (https://cit.gg/index.php?topic=381735.0) I think having a PAM for each side in the game will be the best option like Law side, Civilian, Criminal, LV Gangster it is not impossible to find a good LV player that can be suitable to have a position like PAM Like BlackyMan who got banned in 2014 but became a good example of a PAM who never had his name mentioned in an unfairness case that is against him and lastly, Making it unable to have 2 PAMs from same group or project or anything makes there is relation like that common between 2 PAMs since it can be a reason to affect in a verdict

How the refresh is going to happen?
Every 2 months players-staffs that were involved in UC and PA will give their honest opinion about the verdict not to mention head staffs opinion too on the cases and whether the verdicts make sense or not saying valid-invalid punishment without a sentence that makes sense and convince the reader about what he is saying.

How is the voting going to happen?
A review of the Pros & Cons of all cases that happened last 2 months and the PAM that will have many red-circles around his cases can receive a thank message for his contributions and for seeking fairness and gets replaced with another one, Since satisfying the head staff is not the only thing required to become a good example of a PAM its achieving fairness and giving the player his own rights to prove his POV then the PAM says his verdict that nobody can disagree about but not just quoting the Clarification of specific acts and not using common sense like that case (https://cit.gg/index.php?topic=382259)
Punishment is valid..
Meanwhile
I don't believe /cc is punishable as you can do /eject and lock your vehicle already. That's just my opinion, also I don't think that I've received a Punishment Appeal of someone got punished because of flaming in /cc so yeah. That's just my opinion, I'll leave the decision to my fellow PAMs.

@Zuvich & @Skyscrap you can make up your verdict.

Arran's input (http://input) about the same case 1 day after the appeal
I can't think of why car chat messages should be immune from punishment. They should be treated the same as if they'd said it in local chat.


Why would LV experienced player become in a position like PAM or at least ex LV player?
I don't really blame the staff or PAMs for being not experienced with LV cases since some of them come and ask me personally about my opinion and it comes to changing the whole case 180 degrees
https://cit.gg/index.php?topic=378920.msg5557071#msg5557071 - a 60 days jail that was issued wrongly because not having enough knowledge and was going to be a valid punishment without my input.
https://cit.gg/index.php?topic=377617.msg5537687#msg5537687 - a 3 days jail that was going to be removed due to not having enough knowledge and the guy appealing is lying since the PAMs don't have enough knowledge but I was asked for my input privately.

So a PAM that is involved in 8 unfairness cases didn't make a single mistake or a wrong decision? impossible lol

PAM team needs to be removed not refreshed its a failed system but no one wants to admit it.

Ever since its creation every version of the team faced immense backlash and they mostly had end every teams tenure with drama leaks and corruption.

There are 2 kinds of PAM teams
1) A team that is controlled by high staff and they do what they high staff pleases which defeats the whole point of the PAM system and thus unfairness and corruption will run rampant in the server.

2) A team that opposes the staff which ends up being removed sooner or later because they become a pain in the ass and thus insuring fairness will not happen

The PAM team is like the power struggles between the emperors and Popes back in the middle ages. The PAM team is picked by the staff team who do you think they'll choose? Someone who insures fairness or someone who benefits the staff team?

Just delete the PAM system it is shit and unsalvageable

never forget 2019, the councillor system when the worst players imaginable became councillors.

Maybe a better alternative

Oh my God!
Let them enjoy their life bro! They are working their ass off for Honorable. They do not play this game instead they are working for justice!

Their average playtime (1000 hours) is only for PAM not the game  :poggers:

Bro they never enjoy the game only for us  :hands: they are taking like 4 hours a day for only watching our Punishment appeal board  :hands:

But after reading your post, it is time to rest them. They need to play bro! Don't push them too much working on that board anymore.  :hands:

I am positive, just delete the board they need to rest from the misery.  :tick:

check the recent UC made by zoldyck, PAMs exposing each other, atheer  and skycrap from the same group and even their teammate said that they're discussing cases privately without other Pams' input, which shows how biased and corrupted the team is
1 (https://cit.gg/index.php?topic=385876.0) - UC By medusa was opened and the punishment is removed but still, atheer was validating it.

2 (https://cit.gg/index.php?topic=386271.0) atheer too validated it, and Ferox (civilian and doesn't know shit about CnR, confirming atheer's biased opinion)

Wipe this team already

Facts, but it doesn't mean the PAM system should be removed. Remove the useless powerwhores and let the community elect people to take those positions, if they end up making bad decisions, staff will remove them anyways, so just let people vote on who they think are fair.

huh bro PAM should be thoroughly removed. they are making their "own" rules and people are treated like shit.

well about getting refreshed by staff votes is such a great idea, but community? nah their votes will absolutely be shit like they'll vote on their group member and that.

I am positive, but I highly doubt if community votes can/will be a good solution.

so yeah, :tick:.

I agree with the refreshment by electing new PAMs from time to time, but 2 months aren't suitable for a PAM to prove that he's worthy. What I also like about the suggestion is; that the community will be involved, this will reduce the UCs, as the new PAMs will be elected by the community and the staff team. I'm positive but the 2 months need to be extended a bit in my opinion.

Okay, so you're suggesting that the PAM system should be removed, but what's the alternative? Let staff handle the punishments themselves? Or do you have something else in mind that can fix the PAM system or maybe something entirely new? You can't just suggest that the whole system be removed without thinking about what comes next.

considering the fact that Atheer and Sky discuss cases privately in their DMs)

2 law members from the same group giving out verdicts on shits they have 0 knowledge about and without any rules to support their claims while also being biased with other cases  z_z
 
Definitely supporting this suggestion as he proved with various cases that the current team is a complete failure that needs a change. :tick:

I agree. This whole team is full of incompetent clowns who are appointed after months of licking the authorities to gain power just to feel like they are above the community and impose their dreadful decisions and harm individuals and groups for their personal benefit and ego. Nothing much to say here, I'm positive.
Title: Re: Making PAM Team gets refreshed by Community/staff votes every 2 months
Post by: TheGam3r23 on 03 09, 2022, 11:14:53 pm
Completely supporting this, it's been a while that the major teams in this server are taking decisions on things that they either have no knowledge on just to support their friends. The other comments said it all.  :tick: :tick:


Morale of the story is, never trust the community and bad people may pass through the filter

Yeah because having the same people judge things for their friends or in other cases instances that they have no clue about is much better  :kek4: :kek4: :kek4:. At least in this case if someone is a biased prick they'll be removed and a possibly better person for the spot would be appointed.


If you support having the same people hold important positions for months/years only for them to resign and appoint their buddies and still control everything you're the problem in the server and exactly what's wrong.

For sure if community members found that the PAM team is good, and they do not support making that bullshits and making their own rules like what the actual PAM are doing, staffs will just let them.

Guys if you keep giving ur positive vote for a different idea, cause the title here is "changing by community" and not "removed". But all of u vote removing.
Anyway what I want to say is if the suggestion accepted will be like what is written and in the title and main topic and will be not the team removed.

Btw CB team must removed.

It's all about community votes / staff team votes and head staffs opinion and if a PAM is doing all good and doesn't have any complains about him or his verdicts then he stays after having head staffs and staff team opinion.

Don't know why that team exists at all. Most of them (except Arnold, probably) have no idea or experience of things they're handling and very often make stupid biased decisions just because of their incompetence.. I think that either the team needs to be wiped out instead of a re-election or such, or more competent individuals from all 4 sides (law, criminal, gangster and civilian) need to be appointed because currently that board is a complete clownshow.

This is clearly what we wanted in the last 4 years and still going on. Punishment appeal is similar to ban appeal. Ban appeal board does not need any community to handle it and it is going well.

Hello,

As most of replies agrees to remove PAM system, then are you all okay to let staff who punish you to deal with your PAs? I'm not saying they are not trustful but it's basically the same.

As far as I know, head & high staff are always looking after the PAMs and see their activity.

I totally agree with your point but as they can see how the current PAM system is shit because of the problems and many corrupted/biased things going on there

As far as I know, head & high staff are always looking after the PAMs and see their activity.

Some player used to report Chapo and Suix to the L4 on his DMs until they're removed I've seen this by myself through the DMs believe it or not but that is what happened, and then the same PAM said that the Administrator told him to say his honest opinion about the new PAMs like you, GoldNugget, Zuvich, etc, that's what the PAM said I cannot confirm that or slander anyone about it. if the head/high staff are always looking why when I made a post that contains private chats why they didn't remove the PAM who used to leak private chats to players and break CoC? Maybe they're busy to look at it I don't know but I'm still not accusing any of the head staff team about anything but all of these are questions that I ask from my side. I really wish Arran can handle the PAM refresh since he will never treat any player more special, he will notice that there are 2 players in the PAM team sharing the same groups or projects he wouldn't add them because he wanted to provide Transparency and fairness and he will add them based on how they deal with other things same as what happened with SO Team. PAM team should work individually just like how GoldNugget used to do instead of just checking on what my colleague thinks and I have to agree with him Invalid punishment Appeal denied or valid punishment appeal accepted if we took a look at that https://cit.gg/index.php?topic=382668 case without some1 thinking out of the box and mentioning Arran the appeal would've been rejected and the player was going to be jailed for 56 days.
This is my personal opinion and the story that I've heard of, I can be wrong
I appreciate that you posted here @Arnold

PAM team always had problems and most of them weren't liked by the community because of their biased decisions, so as the problem is within the community and the PAM team I agree on making community vote for PAMs BUT whoever's going to vote must be at least Regular Community Member.

The massive xCM requirements decrease makes JCM more like NCM so giving them the ability to vote on the next PAMs isn't a good idea imo.
Don't know why that team exists at all.

I also like what Lucifer said about making it only 4 from each side which would fix the problem of PAMs not having any experience of a specified side and taking decisions about it.

The idea itself is good and great but my god the execution was shit every single PAM team formation has had atleast one rotten apple (sometimes all of them) so it plagued the rest and ended up making the whole system a joke

Can you read about what the post suggests? It's not about removing the PAM team as its existence is necessary for the little fairness that's left here but even that little fairness is gone when biased or incompetent people hold those positions. So, it'd be better if those people were removed and better people be elected. If any new person is the same then they also get removed. Simple as that


As far as I know, head & high staff are always looking after the PAMs and see their activity.

It's not only about activity, it's about quality as well.

Bruu... U didn't see how PAMs are making their own fuckin rules and people aren't getting treated on a good way? I once saw a PAM flaming and using some prohibited words in order to act like he is something useful on this community. But in fact, he is just a piece of shit. But honestly, PAMs aren't even a useful people on this server they are just rejecting appeals over and over and staffs are obviously never ever saw their activity nor their behaviour I am pretty sure.

Two months cycles are too short for people to get used to any task. And whenever they're finally getting good at it the cycle resets.

The cycles will also pave the way for people with ill intentions to handle cases.

Anyway... it's a too complex of a system just because the current team sucks except for my homie Arnold.

Better to just remove the troublesome PAMs than to come up with this whole election system proposed here  :cros:

Negative.

What this will turn into is a 'friends become PAM' scenario. Certain people will be more favored based purely on the fact they have more recognition and popularity in the server, not based on the skills and qualities that are needed for the PAM duty. Things would get ugly very quickly if this were to be implemented, and therefore it's a solid negative vote from myself.

To begin with, if there're those who'll be offended because of my style, never read what I'm gonna type. This topic itself spreads bias on its own. GoldNugget, unfortunately, couldn't do his job properly and was kicked out/removed as a PAM. As can see here X (https://cit.gg/index.php?topic=382259.msg5607002#msg5607002), he said "punishable" for /cc. However, it was never punishable to insult someone in /cc (until GoldNugget made this stupid mistake). As for the appeals/UCs, you're talking about, you've nothing to do with them. The PAMs have dealt with them properly and they continue to do so. Yes, there may be mistakes from time to time, but these are things that can be fixed. It doesn't make sense for anyone to repeat the same things over and over again and cry the blues, does it? But the main issue I wanna touch on is the UC that zoldyck filed against the PAMs. Unfortunately, even a 2-year-old mentally stable child in need of care can easily understand that what was done was wrong, but either he doesn't understand, or his goal is to get Skyscrap and Atheer kicked out of the PAM Team. As for the summary of the subject and the suggestion, this suggestion is completely absurd. On the contrary, it'll increase drama a lot and cause a big mess. If you're waiting for an opinion from me, then I'll tell you my opinion. I am in favor of the abolition of the PAM Team forever. Because I'm tired of people constantly crying the blues related to this situation.

Hello guys,

Most of replies here agrees to the suggestion that the team is unfair and need a refresh, if you really agree with the suggestion, then each of you need to post an unfair PA or UC and state the reason and what should be done instead of "oh ye bad team, refresh"

Oh you mean like what most people do after a bullshit punishment only to have one of you guys or Brian who couldn't care less come and lock it and even give you a forum warning for drama?  :fp:

The more posts are made to this topic, the more complicated things become.

I still don't understand, do you propose to refresh this team every certain period, who gets to choose them?
The refreshment can be 2-3 times maximum until we can have a clear team without any red circles or any issues or complaints about them or how they're handling the cases, it can be done by head staff + trustworthy players or maybe high community members like RCM SCM+ we all can discuss that and In my opinion, maybe some players wouldn't agree about I prefer having Arran who is handling the team addition/remove if he has the time of course.

Is the method you are referring to the same as the method that existed many years ago, in which staff members would choose the candidates for the staff position based on the opinion of others? If so, then I am in favor of your proposal.

It is also important that as soon as the people vote against the candidate then they must attach evidence that justifies their claim and not just do an X and move on because this will turn into a lack of quality and contempt.

I'm neutral until the OP replies to my post.
It can be like that but I honestly recommend having Pros/Cons of players that want to have the position listed by the head staffs and players can have the ability to share their opinions too about the players about pros/cons like past issues and how he handled something in his old duty things like that.

I think that the current PAM system is the best.
Thank (https://cit.gg/index.php?topic=378920.0) You (https://cit.gg/index.php?topic=382045.0) For (https://cit.gg/index.php?topic=382668.0) Voting (https://cit.gg/index.php?topic=385626.msg5659467#msg5659467) I can see that they're using their common sense not quoting from Clarification of Specific Acts (https://cit.gg/index.php?topic=283478.0)

so making a refresh till we get a PAM team with complete fairness with verdicts that make sense won't harm anyone and I don't think PAMs will be mad if someone is replaced with better players since they're contributing to the server and wishing the server the best meanwhile when previous leaks happened by GameMaster 3 PAMs resigned just to have a better replacement

Atleast Daddy posted his opinion about PAs and UCs, if you really want to support this suggest then do the same, peace!

Yes thats the only reason of why we voted positively on his suggestion. Because he obviously posted his opinion about PAs and UCs and we clearly support his opinion.

The fact, that most of the people, that voted positive on the removal of PAM team (on the 1st page) have been and still are regularly punished and are usually spending more time on punishment appeal and unfairness case boards than playing the game without disturbing anybody is just ridiculous. It is also not hidden that most of the votes are based on one and only reason - certain players' topics (PAs and UCs) have not been handled the way they wanted.

Just an example is, player X gets punished for violating Y in-game rule, the punishment gets issued by a staff member after a discussion is being held among the staffs (one autonomous party validates the punishment)... Later one, the punished guy goes to PA board and appeals his punishment (which is clearly elaborated in the server rules as a punishable act, but he still opens an appeal), the punishment appeal gets rejected by PAMs(second autonomous party validates the punishment), even an administrator confirms that his punishment is valid... However, that person is still mad at the staff that punished him and the PAM team for validating his punishment - he starts insulting them ingame, prooviking in different ways and so. In the end X player comes here and upvotes on a highly disruptive and corruption-promoting suggestion.

There is no reason to refresh or remove the current PAM team or to involve the community in the recruitment of new members of that team. This quote describes the situation in the best possible way.
What this will turn into is a 'friends become PAM' scenario. Certain people will be more favored based purely on the fact they have more recognition and popularity in the server, not based on the skills and qualities that are needed for the PAM duty. Things would get ugly very quickly if this were to be implemented, and therefore it's a solid negative vote from myself.

PAMs are doing their job properly and the risk of any inappropriate / unfair moves being done is decreased to minimum as they are working along a L4 staff who is engaging in discussion from time to time. He monitors their performance and ensures fairness, whenever he sees any problematic action being done by any PAM, he notifies the entire team or the certain person. This may be seen from the leaked private chats of the PAM team, the ones of 2021 and so.

Negative

Since daddy scoped some issues that can have the refresh as a solution I don't mind actually with refreshing the team. I Agree

So after a talk with headstaff group as a whole (L4s and Administrators) turns out the following:

- The team will not be refreshed every 2 months. The main reason is because it is senseless. Why? If someone knows they will stay only 2 months, they can just start doing whatever they want, not care of consequences and instead do a worse job than it's (supposely) being done.

- Plus I guess headstaff values their time more than just keep dealing with the same 4-5 players that won't understand they are not fit for PAM duty but still keep re-applying every 2 months and/or go around annoying us with more UC because they weren't chosen and instead somebody else took the position... and this is a fact that is well known in here, something doesn't go your way ---> start drama, open topics, cry to Arran, things don't go your way again, "this server is shit"

- And again, like another suggestion I answered time ago, you want to replace players with other players and then have a again shadowy way of handling things, as you described and back to point 1, you replace a problem with another problem. No person in here doesn't have interests, end of discussion.

- Another point L4+ agreed on is to place side by side staff members and PAM and introduce an hybrid system with PAM duty going back to staff team while keeping the part of team made also by players. I have the feeling this type of drama will never end so they most time saving solution is to just remove the player factor and put staff. We will actively work on this to have 2-3 staff members to handle cases while respecting CoSA topic and main rules and examples.

The rest was pretty musc explained by Timbery:

PAA are allowed to assist the PAM team by casting their votes on appeals from now on.
