After some discussion and voting in the Council section, we've (hopefully) come up with a way to solve some clutter issues as well as to keep popular channels (ex: Warframe, Guild Wars 2) around for a time so it's less troublesome than creating a channel. The goal is simply have the TS on a monthly restart schedule, any channels set as Semi-Perm will be deleted at each restart, and to request 'permanent' channels - which can be approved, and as such, we would log to keep track of. Rules below:
All Twitch channels to be set as Semi-Permanent.
Request a 'permanent' channel - if approved, the channel will be added as Semi-Permanent and can be requested again the following month.
Council Members/Teamspeak Specialists to log requests and approval of 'permanent' channels. (Helpful in case of restarts early in the month, easy restoration of channels as well as keeping track for below)
Watch for a new thread in the Member's Only section to request permanent...
We setup an IRC channel for PR at obsidianirc.net, channel #Phantom-Rapture
You can use an IRC client, or follow this link. Make sure to register your name or we can't give you any ranks/perms
Okay, so thanks to @Saiboogu and @Sandbag the TS3 Bot is working again - finally. Thing had me bashing my head against a wall. So some things to note -
It will move you to the AFK channel if you set your status to Away or if you're flagged as idle. Idle, as far as I know, is considered if you don't talk for an extended duration - it may be fine with typing, have not tested yet. It seems to be confirmed - typing in TS will reset the timer. Tests underway currently. Confirmed - typing in TS will NOT flag you as idle and consider you active.
It SHOULD send messages, at random intervals and to random people (in the form of PMs, not pokes) to anybody in any {PR} member groups - ranging from Trainee to Council Member. It will be a reminder that members are REQUIRED to wear tags, keep in mind that you are not supposed to have perms without tags - when this is confirmed working, I intend to give it a week to...
The hostname winbox.pr-gaming.net should update to reflect this change within 24 hours. If you want a new hostname before then, you can use winbox.prgam.in.
More to come soon! Reinstalling a number of servers to streamline and better organize things based on our experiences hosting servers for awhile now.
