=ADK= VooDoo

I am back! I used to be with ADK long, long ago. I guess it's been at least 3 years now. It was back in BF3. I did a bit of admin work but like made me extremely busy and I had to step down and out. I have found that I am back playing BF4 just about daily again and thought, why not. So here I am back at ADK looking to help out where I can. You should see me on the servers starting this week and most likely even tonight. For those that don't know me, I have been a gamer for longer than I care to say :-) 45 years old here so if that gives you any idea. Battlefield has been my game of choice since it's first release. Like to just hang out, kill, and screw around on TeamSpeak. When I am not gaming, I am doing something with my wife and one of our 4 daughters or riding my Harley. That about sums it up. Looking forward to seeing everyone on the servers once again! Thanks - VooDoo

Welcome to ADK! :-)

Welcome to ADK! :-)

Gonna have to try it. I will look for it tonight.

Welcome to ADK! You picked a great community!

Welcome to ADK! Lowell MI here right outside Grand Rapids :-)

Sorry :-) I have had the same thing happen to me. It's a valid point but I don't know the other side of the argument of why it does what it does today. Maybe we should start a new thread on this top in the correct area and lock this one?

I am going to lock this thread as it provides no value outside of what is already known in terms of staffing.

I am not disputing that and like I said above, I could be wrong but there are also many reasons behind that observation and I am stating that your reasons of posting the observation is for personal gain rather then for the good of the community and that is the problem I have with this thread.   You're point of we do not have enough Advisers or Admins is in fact a valid point. We are a 24/7 digital shop so it is important that we have full coverage at all times but again it is clear to me through your own "actions" that this post was not out of concern for the community.

  What you're screen shot does not show is: The admin room The manager room I do not know how you have your TS configured however it does not appear that you are subscribed to those channels? I may be wrong. Your also clearly not showing the BF4 area. There is a possibility that an Adviser or Admin was up there. Once BF4 is released and AOB and Nova have titled people as BF4 Advisers and Admins, along with the BF3 Advisers and Admins it will become more clearly defined. Again I have no idea if anyone was in the BF4 channels at that time as that is not seen in your screen shot.   To @Prophets point, I think allot of us are U.S. based You are correct, ADK does in fact need more Advisers and so on. We are a large community that is a 24/7 digital establishment (that might make a good tag line ;-) ) and I know we do have some members who are on very late or in other timezone's. @J3ngland is on just about 24/7 it seems. Myself I have been sick the last  days with the flu so I have not been in game much however I have tried to be available via TS and still responding to threads within the forums.    With all that being said I would be remiss if I did not point out a few things here. You titled this thread "Why we need more admins/Advisers" while at the same time you have placed an application for Adviser I believe and also at the time time you have another thread going which looks like it has now been shortened up talking about a new start and many members have pointed out the changes needed, myself included, on things to do. I am having a hard time understanding how this thread fits into those changes?   I  am unaware of any beefs you have had with members in the past but you stated "I am going to devote myself to not getting into fights with such and such players whose names must I not mention."  yet this feels like this thread was posted to "push some buttons" for a lack of better term. I must also point out that it's odd to give the title you selected while at the same time placing an application for Adviser and apparently not taking the advice of many who responded in your other thread mentioned above. Words are just that, words. Actions speak louder then words. Instead of being concerned with what everyone else is doing and/or not doing get your own house in order, work on you. I stated this in you're other thread. Attempting to "pressure" @[member='Novaura'] or @[member='AOBLXIX'] into taking you on as an Adviser by calling out the fact that you do not see any in TS at the time you are in there is not a method for proving yourself. Again, worry about you and fix you. This process is not an overnight thing. If you really truly want to be with ADK then time and self change should not be an issue.   All of that said, @[member='Novaura'] or one of the BF Managers ( @Wacko920 @cm3parker @caveman70 @[member='WhickerBasket'] @67mustang08 )can obviously go into the logs (and do!) to see who is on and when and for how long. Let me be VERY clear here, it is not to say that they should not be made aware that there is no Adviser or Admin on at a specific time but to do it in a public way that you know will irritate specific people in an attempt to obtain personal gain (Adviser) in my humble opinion is not the correct way.     @[member='Novaura'] @[member='AOBLXIX']I @Wacko920 @cm3parker @caveman70 @[member='WhickerBasket'] @67mustang08p I personally think this thread should be locked.   Again Brett, I wish you the best of luck and hope you really do make some changes. But posting things like this in what is clearly an attempt to push your way into ADK (just my opinion) shows me that your not take the advise of other members in your other post.   To all higher ranks, if I am wrong in anyway with my response, please correct me. We are a community and the above is only my 2 cents on the thread.

Welcome to ADK! You are joining a great community! I am on the BF side of the house but I plan to try out Planet Side 2 very soon.

@[member='Pepsi'], By the way, love the Breaking Bad icon. Damn I miss that show. Sundays are sooooo depressing now.

Great! Now @[member='Pepsi'] has us throwing digital gang signs! lol ;-)

Welcome to ADK! A family that games together, gotta love that!
