Zone Lead FAQ

This FAQ was released when Thalgor first removed the Senate and implemented the Zone Lead program.

Questions and Answers

A: The ZLs (Zone Leads) should be contacted directly for their area of responsibility. They have full authority in their area unless it directly affects the security of either the FAO or game play.

Q: What is going to happen to the proposed constitution changes?

A: They will be discarded.

Q: What is changing from how the FAO is currently administered and run?

A: The middleman is now cut out. You will deal directly with the proper ZL or Admin. You will find a much faster response time. Other than that, nothing.

Q: How will major enforcement issues be handled?

A: As they have been for some time. The ZL for enforcement will apply the proper ban times. In the case of a major or lifetime ban, those actions will be made public by a simple post explaining who, what, where and why. Major or lifetime bans will be discussed amongst the admins prior to enactment of. Normally most medium level or higher issues are discussed within the @Alleg group for feedback.

Q: Who do I contact concerning forum enforcement issues?

A: The ZL of Enforcement, Black Viper. The administrators will also act upon issues within the forums as required. Additional forum moderators will be added in the near future to cover the forums 7/24.

A: If you feel you need assistance in your issue contact your squad leader if you are a member of a squad. They will assist you with taking the matter up with one of the Admins.

Q: What if I am not a member of a squad and have an issue with a ZL?

A: You may approach one of the senior members of @Alleg to assist you.

Q: I want to form a squad, what are the requirements?
