The game's terrible. Actually, the servers are.

    Just because a guard is on IRC doesn't mean they are actually there. Generally I'll respond to a guard call if no one else responds within a minute, but in this case, I heard a ping and I was eating dinner with a friend who visited me. I'm not going to interrupt my dinner just because of guard call. If I was casually eating by myself, sure maybe then. Soon, after I said goodbye to him, he left, I brushed my teeth and went to bed. As Canadian said, most guards are asleep during Aussie daytime because most guards are from the Americas or Europe since it's late at night to early morning for Americans and early morning to morning for Europeans. Chances of you getting help from a guard who comes from there is low at this hour simply cause they are either asleep or busy since most people aren't free until later in the day. So basically, just because you see a guard on IRC, doesn't mean they are actually there. Additionally, I'm not going to change my sleeping habits and my entire way of life just because you expect me to help the KAG community.

    As far as I know, apart from FBB, there aren't any other active KAG guards from Australia and he doesn't get on till late night in Aussie land. So basically you are more likely to get help from an admin on the server than a guard. If you can't get an admin because it's badly administrated, then just don't play on that server or votekick them. If you want something done and a guard isn't there, then record a video of them griefing. Sure, the first two bans are basically a slap on the wrist because it'll be at most 2-3 days for first and a week for the second, but after that they get significantly more severe because it's obvious they are going to continue at that point. Guards aren't the solve all problem for everything.

    Since there are so many other reliable options, it's more your fault nothing got done.

    @OP, as everyone else said, Bergice is a cancerous server that's a plague on the community. To be honest, I'd like for it to be removed from the server list and having everyone who likes going there to be forced to join via direct connect. Bergice gives a terrible reputation and should honestly just disappear. Generally the well populated servers are well administrated, with the exception being Bergice.

    FBB and Ruleral are the only semi-active guards from Aus.

    And here I was thinking I'd need to step in and defend my honour as an Australian guard. I'm touched, Kouji & Cana. :QQ::heart:

    Yeah, if it's not evening in Australia then it's probably safe to assume I'm working for a living and not able to be helpful. Sorry 'bout that. :L

    You also have to understand that people have, ya know, lives. We all have shit going on outside of KAG, especially if you're over the age of 16. Most of us have to work, go to classes, have a social life, etc etc. You can't expect admins/guards to be around 24/7.

    Personally, i try to ignore the griefers or just assholes if i don't manage to votekick them. And if they get really annoying and its impossible to play, i just leave the server and choose a different one, or just don't play the game (ragequit)

    This is one very large and long winded admin application.

    Usually griefers are like a fringe group in otherwise popular games. What's unsettling is that KAG is almost dead, yet there's still an endless supply of griefers. What kind of sub-human do you have to be to grief in such a small, dedicated community? It would be like griefing a Shockwave game from 2003. Maybe these people will be the last ones playing KAG, digging dirt when there's nobody left building.

    Why is KAG almost dead ? The servers and community is pretty active in my opinion. But i agree with that "sub-human" statement :D

    I asked Bergice nicely if I could apply somehow to help with the server. He then shut me down on his wall on an alternative account. Facepalm.

    This isn't my application. This is my feelings towards wanting to apply for such a position.

    Just saying that Hatsumei isn't Bergice, if it were, I'd have to ban one of those accounts. Hatsumei is a dick though.

    Bergice doesn't seem to respond to complaints on his profile anymore, might want to PM him.

    Still, I didn't say that I was APPLYING for a position. I was wishing to. I didn't apply though. Read.

    Nah, I don't really mean it that way. I'm willing to believe that the game will be revived when it's properly released, though I'm unsure of the community it will attract.

    One last note before I leave this dumb thread forever, why the hell would you rate the community's ability to administrate based on an RP server?

    I might as well rate all of humanity based on Nazi Germany.

    OP knows nothing about KAG, nor does anyone who liked OP's post, just a bunch of frustrated pubbies that want admin really bad on their favorite server.

    So you're saying casual gamers who apparently don't know anything about a game should have the shittiest experience ever. Cool point.

    It's more of "why the hell" are some of the shittiest servers introduced to the new players (like me) who have no idea where to start? Now you can leave.
