"Back in my day..."

I just found this image in one of my old folders and thought it might be interesting to show some newer people some screen shot of what old-school SGW's rank 1 was at back at the beginning.

Section Admins - who will be 'in charge' of the section in question. They will be responsible for the overall feel of the section, the setup/structure, and most importantly the community/users in the section. This will incorporate the old 'ombudsman' role. And insofar as the Section Admin is responsible for the users, they are also responsible for the high level mod behaviour towards the users.
So -as a user - if you have an issue with how you are treated, rules, bans, whatever --goto the section admin... They are there for you!

There is no 'reporting structure' in this setup -- tech, mod, and section admins are all on equal footing, each with their own (somewhat overlapping) responsibilities.
Mods report directly to the mod admin, and indirectly to the section admin for the section in which they mod.

We know of three names on that image, though we did not really know those three.

Re: "Back in my day..."

This was so far back in the day when Stargate was such a popular TV franchise that people came from far and wide just to play the game because of the association, with most actually having no strategic clue about this sort of text based game.

Just take a look at the Quantum records for example. You'll note a drastic increase in stat levels compared with the opening couple of eras. When people actually started realising how to play the game. ETL of course, was one step ahead.

Oh and THE SAZ. Met her. She is one sexy lady.

Re: "Back in my day..."

The association was already doomed for blatant infringement of copyright. Sooner or later MGM were going to catch up. It's a rather dishonest thing to do to make ample cash off of the back of someone elses idea. If anything, the game was done a favour.

Re: "Back in my day..."

I only wish I had more of these screen shots :(

I like looking back to mid-late 2005. Early 2005 was crap, but mid-late was awesome game-wise in my opinion.

I can't come back to this game. I work full time and I would just get sucked back into old habits that weren't very healthy...

I do miss it though...when I really admit it to myself.
