Hey, I don't know who's in charge of this kind of thing, but I saw on another forum post that lilweeph and I have been kicked out. I realize this was for extended absence. I also noticed bartman was not kicked due to PC problems. This would be the case with lilweeph and I as well. For a time neither of us had sufficient internet connection or access to a usable PC. Hope you reconsider letting us rejoin.(The council we made.) Thank you!

Werble the difference between your absence and Bart's is that bart was able to inform us of his problems. I don't see any logical reason for you to be unable to write a one line post saying "my pc is broken, wont be online" either by using your phone or another computer enable device. Just my thoughts. Also saying you "made it" still doesn't make you in charge, all council members are equal and subject to the same treatment

Dont worry Werble,you will be voted in again

I would like to discuss the jail system, and how it could be improved. I think players trapped by zedwicks devious contraptions are auto-banned too quickly, and reading though the ban hammer records I found one recent post saying how it was quite difficult to find the forum to appeal. I try to tell players where to go for an appeal, but often they are auto-banned before anyone can tell them what to do. Maybe some signs inside the jail? Or a command block message to them? Although most are never heard from again some well loved members of the community have ended up in there at some point, and we may be losing quite a few lovely players to honest accidents.

Edit: I would also like to raise the topic of the monthly build off. While this was agreed a while ago to not be continued as it was a complete flop, the prize donation chest in the hub is now full of miscellaneous valuables.

Also, we can't say werble will certainly be voted back in. That would be corrupt.

@Memery785 I think you missed that part of my post where I mention I didn't have access to a working device AND reliable internet. So yes, it really was that hard to write a 1 line notice. I was also not inferring that I was "in-charge" by mentioning that lilweeph and I made the council. It's just during the time that we were active in the council we did not have this absence rule. Sorry if there was any confusion I don't mean to start any beef with anyone.

Topic: Moving the council discussion from text to verbal. Using Skype/Teamspeak or similar

Possibly been up before my time here but Its something Ive been thinking of

[Treiskaideka]

If you wanna use Teamspeak, I'd be glad to offer my Teamspeak 3 Server. Yes, I usually play on Zurvival, but I like your Council and wanna help you.

We already used it with great success at lateoclock's birthday party (8+ people at once), but since then it's not that much used.

Just tell me how many people would like to participate, so I have enough Slots. (I would try to be there and administrate the Teamspeak at the meeting and some time before to help with technical problems, but you can use it regardless of my presence. If someone has experience with Teamspeak and can give me some tips, I'd appreaciate it)

This server doesnt see too much traffic anyway, so could be nice if you could use it. And if you want, you can also use it outside the meetings.

So, my offer stands.

(btw, if you could log in anytime before the meeting, with the same name as your IGN, I could greate agroup, so you have an icon ect)

I'll post the servername, if you want it.

If you do not know anything about Teamspeak: It's a free software that lets you talk via voice or chat to other people. Only the server cost, so if you use another's server, it's free for you. You do not need to register an account anywhere and you set your name when you log in to a server.
Usually, services such as Teamspeak have better voice quality, especially when a lot of people use it at the same time, because the data is sent to the server and not directly to every participant.

P.S.: this server is located in Germany, but the biggest problem is usually the quality of the own mic.
P.P.S.: And if you dont want to /cannot talk, you can also use the Chat on the server or in-game and just listen to the others.

If you wanna use Teamspeak, I'd be glad to offer my Teamspeak 3 Server.

Sorry, I don't allow third-party voice servers to be promoted publically. You may of course invite selected friends to join you on your TS server, just not mass-invites or for public use on Zedwork.

Thank you for the offer, though.
