Coders have their ingame buttons back

[onleavedontatme]

They can already bypass all the restrictions with proc call magic anyway, another arbitrary set of restrictions. WJ couldn't even test properly by setting icons when he lost +FUN. Coders who abuse it/run crazy events without asking admins first will lose the rank this time rather than everyone losing buttons.

I had to compromise on sound for you though, sorry guys.

Kor: Yes
Shadowlight: Yes but no sound
HG: ?

>HG ?

Good start to the headmin shift.

Otherwise I do think this is a good thing for coders, while most of the time you want to test you changes on a local server, but there are some times where you just need to see how it works in places like the Thunderdome on a live server with a sizeable population.

So long as idiot's who abuse it just lose their status then I think it'll be a fair change.

but how will I be able to test effectively without playing meme songs at full blast?

The #coderbus union will work tirelessly to restore your +SOUND, but we had to settle on a dental plan this round of negotiations.

Can coders ban?

[Jordie0608]

No

[TechnoAlchemist]

All coders are fine except for aran in my book so I think it's okay

[Wyzack]

Kor you are on motherfucking fire with these policy things man. It is nice to have a headmin make a whole fuckload of positive changes. I bet Dunc is gonna be fucking thrilled about this one

[duncathan]

this is the best headmin team of all time and it's only been one day

I think Aran was the one who got coder powers taken away in the first place

[ColonicAcid]

It's always been aran doing shitty things with codermin yeah.

I'm pretty sure hes had it revoked like 3 times now.

Also I don't think the coder permissions actually changed yet

[oranges]

as long as they don't have +ban

[PKPenguin321]

wait, so is this for maintainers, not anybody in the admins.txt, right?

It's for people with the coder rank in the admins.txt

All maintainers have at least coder rank (I think?) but not everyone with coder rank is a maintainer.

This should not ever have been an issue. You give coders admin access - doesn't even have to be restricted - so they can look at how live rounds are going and identify bugs, as well as to make it worthwhile for them to improve admin tools. Like, at one point, I went through the whole of the godawful admin tool selection and improved all of them to make them at least usable. I did this because I was both an admin and coder, so I could see what the issues were for admins and could improve them.

If, however, certain coders can't behave themselves, you selectively remove their admin status. There is no reason why all coders shouldn't have this vital tool because one coder still can't control themselves.

Admins today have know idea how good they have it. VV was a nightmare before you touched it.

And recording bans manually in a thread with no database was hilarious. Thanks again for making our tools tolerable.
