Birthday Senpai 18 Posted July 9, 2017 To start things off, i'm not making this post to hate on anyone or I don't like doing my job. I am currently a paidadmin on Gmod TTT (Central) and sometimes I am the only one on at the time that can deal with the following: racism,rdm,porno sprays, aimbot, headphone breaking screamers, and disrespect. Is it ok if I just want to play a couple rounds without handling reports (unless its serious). It just gets frustrating when I want to play the game too but the problems just stockpile. Thank you for reading this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dr. NarwhalsNumbNuts IV 2291 Posted July 9, 2017 You aren't expected to police the server. That's up to the SO's. Your admin powers are for you to do as you choose, within reason. If you're the only admin on, enjoy the game if you want. Police if you want. Do it correctly and don't abuse, and you'll have fun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Birthday Senpai 18 Posted July 9, 2017 Ok, I like to help when it's needed most (which is usually after 12:00). I just wanted to make sure that it wasn't wrong for me to just take a break. Thank you for responding. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ian 325 Posted July 9, 2017 It's okay to die at the beginning of a round so you can catch up on reports. I did that a lot because I had a strong focus on making sure the server ran smoothly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bluestreakid15 540 Posted July 9, 2017 I always felt the same way when I was a paidmin. Like Narwhals said, just because you're an "admin" doesn't mean you HAVE to keep the server under control. That's all up for the staff team to do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thank you for reading this. You could be a cool admin and just.. ignore the porn sprays. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nemo 17 Posted July 11, 2017 I can totally relate!! Some days are calmer than others but eventually you'll have no problem dealing with everyone alone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rem 5 Posted July 14, 2017 As a former admin on another server, I completely understand what dealing with these people are like. It isn't fun when you are the only admin on a server of 30 plus people and a fourth of the server is RDMing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
