Zone Leads
To streamline the efficiency of the F.A.O., Thalgor eliminated the Senate and appointed community members to oversee specific areas. These people had been "running" these areas for sometime, and these appointments merely made it official.
Hierachy
The new structure did not change much form the prior system. The hierachy is:
- Thalgor
- Head Admins: Pook & Tigereye
- Admins: BlackViper
- Zone Leads : Community Core, Development, Documentation, Enforcement, Events, Tech Support, Training.
Zone Leaders' role in the community
Each Zone Lead has full authority in their area (subject to security issues). They can appoint staff as needed to assist them within their Zone. They oversee the day to day operations of their area and head up on going projects. The ZL's are overseen by the Administrators.
The Zones of coverage are:
- Community Core - develop and maintain a regulary updated, balanced core.
- Development - code, artwork, mods, etc.
- Documentation - The Wiki, coordinates with the Academy, etc.
- Enforcement - Covering all aspects of the ToS and the RoC.
- Events - Coordinates and oversees all major community events, tournaments, special games, etc.
- Technical Support - Helpline, all questions regarding gameplay or forum tech issues.
- Training - ACS, Cadet, etc.
With this system in place the ZL's can gather input from other ZL's, Staff, Admins, Squad Leaders, etc. To get feedback from the community they can run a community wide poll via the ASGS polling system.
See the Zone Lead FAQ released when the Zone Lead program was announced for further explaination.
Each Zone has an individual forum in the Community Section.
Zone Leads can be recognised in-game by the "+" token by their nick, which indicates they have the Enforcer.
