So the status threads are all locked.

[Aphil]

Why?

For what possible reason did they think this was a good idea?

[2013-12-02 03:44:57] aerelm: got an assignment for you (nerd)
[2013-12-02 03:45:18] aerelm: go through all official faction subforums and make sure their status thread is locked

<<< need to make sure these are locked, so factions get to request changes rather than makin whatever change they want on their ownThats what Amir told me

Oh yea. I mean, I'm sorry but I thought that the whole point was to reduce the amount of work the Mods and Admins did when it came to these things. Now you're telling me that we need to ask permission to modify it? I need to ASK to add a name to my roster or to tweak something here and there? Enlighten me as to what possible reason this could be a good idea?

Indeed, and you guys did this RIGHT out of the blue, not even a post about it. We WANT an explanation on WHY this has happened.

Also you guys are always saying your doing stuff to reduce the work-load. This simply ADDS to it because now you got to deal with every little request to tweak/change rosters and other data on there as the faction evolves. This move frankly makes NO sense.

[Thyrzul]

Seems to be true. Aerelm, are you really prepared to get spammed with PMs anytime any faction leader wants to change anything on their info page?

[00:23:19] Divine: explain this
[00:24:11] Divine: it lists diplo, usable gear, exception rules to our directives and the directives itself, the roster and the rp-link-database
[00:24:14] Divine: why that is locked?

I'd actually like to know why this was done, without a warning given beforehand and how you wish to proceed with this, as I can't imagine you'd want us to poke admins/mods for every tiny change we want done within our own sub-forums.

Screw it, got an excuse to be lazy.

Yeah, not seeing the logic on this one over here, either. We at GRN| have our roster in that thread, for Christ's sake. Do you want us to just lift it out and dump it somewhere else?

Is there any particular reason official factions are being deemed unworthy of maintaining their own lore and other faction-relevant information?

Probably to avoid unauthorised changes.

Yes, I mean heaven forbid we add a member to the roster or promote someone and have to change their rank. :S What a terrifying Disco that would be.

What possible changes could be made that are so severe as to force us to go through this nonsense?

This basically.
