also since we're talking abt vp management the number one thing on my wishlist is an at least monthly little post from you telling that you still exist - even if nothing special is going on behind the scenes, it would be nice to know you haven't given up on the site

I must admit that at first, I found it weird to take someone who isn't a main user here, but I thought more about it, and now I am pretty neutral about it because it is better to find someone who has been an admin before than picking someone who doesn't know anything about it. So welcome to the site, Tess. Will you be a main user here or a mix of both servers?

Just be warned, the en server base is a lot different than NL. Not sure I completely agree with the way this went but I wish you the best of luck and welcome to EN Tess

if you think the english server has a lot more activity then the nl one must be like,,, dead-dead 😭 i assume this means you advocate for the closing of the other servers which earns you a point in my book 👍

It is, very much so.. but there's still a (very small) geoup of people who are active and very tight with eachother, so for them it would be sad if NL closed. But I also think we're postponing the inevitable.

DE is still doing well, so I am actually not advocating for closing them down. May I ask why you would want that?

because i think they're money drains - like i don't know if the 1100€ that is mentioned in the server costs is only for the english server, but since vp is already struggling with money it would be financially smart to only host one server. i understand that people on the other servers don't want to come here and be forced to write in english and essentially start over without any items. but at some point, especially if the other servers barely make any money from mcm, something must be done even if feelings are hurt in the process.

I understand your point and agree, but DE is still doing really well, so that is not a money drain. If anything, closing them down and 'forcing' them to come here or quit might mean a significa t financial loss.

Thank you! And thanks a lot for welcoming me with open arms when I first started out on NL, I have learned so much from you and enjoyed working together. If you want to talk anything through, feel free to contact me!

I will become a main user here. Right now I'm still badged on NL until Etjen and I can make a permanent plan for the future of NL, but I will only be performing the tasks that are really needed for NL to keep going (which is basically only making a code or advising a team). EN will have my full focus and I will definitely become more active to get to know you all!
