Taos Posted November 7, 2002 Share Posted November 7, 2002 Originally posted by -s/<itzo- I still don't get it. what's the point of having a padawan. The point being to help you during your time here at LF. There are many rules and regs that you have to follow around here. Someone, like Tyrion could teach you in the ways of LF, so that you have an "easier" time posting here. And have more fun!! Isn't that what it is all about??

access_flux Posted November 7, 2002 Share Posted November 7, 2002 seen as i have been here longer then all of you, i should be offering to take a padawan, but i'll volunteer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kstar__2 Posted November 7, 2002 Share Posted November 7, 2002 sorry too say, but you can anly take a padawan with 1000 posts:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
access_flux Posted November 7, 2002 Share Posted November 7, 2002 but that is stupid, can't we make an exception, i have been here one of the longest, and i spend more time reading then posting, but i don't think its the post count that matters. scheißer....

PhantomHelix Posted November 7, 2002 Share Posted November 7, 2002 no, they aren't gonna make an exception. ive been here since a month after you, and i have more posts, and im not a teacher yet....its just te way they organized the system. and tyrion, i hope you find a padawan soon.

Surfnshannon Posted November 7, 2002 Share Posted November 7, 2002 Someone please explain to me that padawan rule????? If you have less than a thousand posts but you have been here for over a year...your not allowed to take on a padawan?? But someone who's been here a couple months with a thousand (coughs) posts are allowed to take on padawans?? That seems a little shady. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sivy Posted November 7, 2002 Share Posted November 7, 2002 that is shady maybe they should go by registration date instead of post count or maybe a combination of the two. for example, someone who has been here at least 6 months and has a count of over 500 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhantomHelix Posted November 7, 2002 Share Posted November 7, 2002 heres actually what happens. this will clear up all quesitons: You are first taken in by a teacher and become a padawan to join the academy (with the exception of the first members. that was impossible). once you reach 700 posts, you graduate and become a jedi knight. once you reach 1000, you become a master and a teacher. then you can take your own padawan. and it shouldn't go by how long they are taught, because 700 is 700. besides, you arent supposed to spam, so the post amount and how long it takes is reasonable. however, if someone is at around 400 posts, they should at leat have him stay until about 800 or 900. thats just my suggestion.

Taos Posted November 7, 2002 Share Posted November 7, 2002 *smacks Tyrion upside the head* Originally posted by STTCT But someone who's been here a couple months with a thousand (coughs) posts are allowed to take on padawans?? The ppl who are chosen to be teachers, reguardless of registration date, are ones who are chosen not only because of the quantity of their posts, but the quality as well. So it's not like they just take anyone with 1,000 posts......... Why take someone who has been here since jan. 1997 if they only have 520 posts? What's that post per day count? Less than one per day I'm sure....it shows they don't come here much. You can't teach someone something if you aren't here much. This is my $.02. Congrats again STTCT!!! any further questions see Obi-Wan13........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pad Posted November 7, 2002 Share Posted November 7, 2002 and besides, being a teacher is a lot more then just teachin ur padawan. when we have a server and some time, we play jk2 together and we r a lot of the time on msn. so its actually a real bunch of nice ppl u know very well.

Guest Jed Posted November 8, 2002 Share Posted November 8, 2002 I'm ashamed of you people (with the exception of Leemu and Pad). Becoming a teacher is more than just a registration date. Access_flux, I don't doubt that you come here often, but your post count disagrees. I must say, people who come here, post legit, minimal spam, posts everyday and contribute to this place, complete 1000 posts in 2 months or so, deserve to be a teacher. In a convo with Leemu, he came up with a good analogy. For example, it's like letting some old guy join an NBA team that sucks because he's been there longer instead of a very young new guy who is good and just got there. The point: this time thing instead of posts seems like a bunch of bull to put it frankly. I also believe that spam should be controlled better on LF, so that makes the people who reach 1000 posts really earn their teaching abilities in the LFJA. So, stop bashing the LFJA. They've got the system figured out perfectly. Again, my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rogue Nine Posted November 8, 2002 Share Posted November 8, 2002 I don't get the whole thing. Seems rather contrived to me. See, I got the registration date and the post count. No one wants to be my padawan. And who defines legit? What could be considered legit here could be the epitome of spam elsewhere. Half the topics here are pointless anyway.

Rogue Nine Posted November 8, 2002 Share Posted November 8, 2002 I don't purport XWA to be utopia. It's anything but. It's also nothing like this place. That, I like. But I'm not going to compare XWA and this place, that wouldn't be fair. So don't even bring it up, Tyrion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
