Staff Changes
People may start asking questions about what is going on at Dodian now. Well, I've came to realize that me and Ivan can't work together, and in my opinion he has made some questionable decisions, even some despite disagreements from other staff members.
I've gone ahead and removed Ivan from his admin position and Ween from his moderator position. Ween has proven to be extremely toxic, especially towards the staff team. If he has a problem with the majority of the staff team, and works it out by talking shit about us in the general public, he's not fit to be part of said staff team. So what's going to happen now? I'll be stepping back into being administrating Dodian again. I have a lot of work ahead of me, and will mainly focus on getting a new website and server up and running. Because we really need both. I know I've been claiming to work on this for a long time, but never delivering. I won't make any promises this time either, but I've made some life choices that will give me more time to work on Dodian. I also think that, if not big, at least a decent game with a decent sized community. When the new server is out So my plan is to launch a new server (without resetting anyone's progress/stats), and a new website. This will allow us to maintain Dodian more easily, add more modern features. We'll see what we can add in terms of new content once we reach that point. We've been lucky to have Supertje help us make some new maps. These will go live along with the new server, and it's going to be a new Dodian experience. It's mostly about relocating existing map locations, so not custom designed maps. More on that later. I also thought that with the new server going live, we can also start fresh on punishments. Though some cases of punishment needs to be reviewed before we can lift them. With the new website, we'll have a ticket management system, so it will be a lot easier to maintain good decisions in the staff team, as well as take care of any abusive staff members. I hope you can bear with me in the meantime of all of this. In the meantime me and the rest of the staff team will do the best we can to help assist you! |
If every single one of you didn't act like buffoons there'd be nothing to talk shit about lol. You guys are a mess.

As far as I'm concerned, these changes were a necessity for the integrity of both the server and the staff team. Throwing unnecessary shade over people and trashtalking people dedicating alot of time and work into the server is everything we don't need. But let's not get stuck in the past and move on, I'm confident in Nozemi on the wheel of our bus :yes:

It is difficult to describe how very pleased I am to hear that. Big thanks to Nozemi for giving life back to server we all love! After long time, I am looking forward to what will come. Thanks a lot!

Until you realized he's made false promises or has gotten the community hyped up on a cycle like 5 times already since he's started this new source. This is nothing new. His momentary return (which was fueled by the rage of being opposed this time) for a turn around into immediate demotivation and toxicity. The cycle will never end and I'm truly sorry as a community we have to have these people in charge.

With this I ask you nicely to stop the negativity you have towards me and the rest of the staff team. It’s not gonna help anyone. In fact it’s things like this that make me toxic and not desire to work on Dodian. Not reason alone of course. |
I have to say, I didn't expect to see this and finally know why I couldn't log in after I got home from work. Last I heard you were stepping away again but I see you had a change of heart. I thought we had a better understanding between us to possibly made this transition a little 'smoother' but it is what it is. No hard feelings, I only want Dodian to prosper and if you are going to become fully committed then good luck to all involved. I can only get things done with the tools I have at hand. I wish everyone good luck with their future endeavors and once and for all,
Thank you for playing Dodian! |
Sorry to hear about the problems with staff. Looks like a step in the right direction for Dodian. Thanks for putting in the work on the new open source! Can't wait.

I'll be back if there's a reset

reset

I can think of several solutions to solve it: 1. setting the droprate to such a level that obtaining the item is a challenge, but at the same time it is not impossible. 2. 1% of the money is removed from the game by each duel. 3. only cash could be staked. It should give true value to gp. 4. skip tasks is great as it is, it removes a lot of money and I realy like it. 5. it is possible to add some fees to selected locations. If you really don't want to restart the server anymore, let's at least restart the economy or do the voting. I hope that if we run everything from again, we can achieve a quality server with good perspective to play. Let me know what you think about it. |

I'd even return with a partial reset (economy)

Plan at the moment is to deliver on what I've been babbling about for the past two years, finally. Hopefully I can make it happen this time around. New website is progressing very well. Which will allow us to do way more in terms of logging and managing the server. I know a lot of you have been accusing mods for staff abuse. I want to make sure we get to the bottom of stuff like that. I'll make sure to make an announcement explaining more in detail what we've planned for the future of Dodian. I just need to make some more progress on the new website and server before. There will likely be a beta of both the new website and the new server when we get closer. In the meantime, please trust that we think things thoroughly before we decide on anything. There have been too many mistakes to rush any decisions. Despite this, we'll probably make some more mistakes here and there. |

Oh, let me count the ways I am overwhelmed with joy by this momentous occasion. Nozemi, the pinnacle of dedication and leadership, has graced us all with his presence. What an honor it is to witness the server inching closer to its public release. My heart, it sings with unparalleled ecstasy.
Nozemi, the developer extraordinaire, toils day and night, sacrificing sleep, sanity, and social interactions for the greater good of this server. Oh, the sacrifices! Who needs a balanced life anyway? Certainly not Nozemi. No, he choose to dedicate his self fully, to serve as the guiding light in this labyrinth of code and administration. And let's not forget his administrative prowess. A true marvel! Nozemi possesses the uncanny ability to rule over this virtual realm with a velvet glove, ensuring that all systems run as smoothly as an Olympic figure skater. He squashes bugs like a seasoned exterminator, fearlessly battling the tiny digital creatures that dare to disrupt his grand vision. The server, oh the server, it draws nearer to public release with each passing day. The excitement is palpable! It's as if we're on the edge of a precipice, ready to plunge into a sea of unknown adventures and possibilities. How lucky are we, the mere mortals, to witness such an event unfold before our eyes? So here I stand, on the verge of tears, overwhelmed with uncontainable happiness. Nozemi, the beacon of light in this dark abyss, leads us toward a brighter future. I bow down, humbled by his unwavering dedication and unquestionable leadership. May the server's release be as glorious as Nozemi's contributions. Oh, how fortunate we are! |
