I will not expose myself to the Nightmist public.  That would be illegal in several countries.

Problem: Players constantly seek attention from staff for little to no problem, FORCING them to cloak. They could ban everyone that does it, but the threads that currently exist saying 'plz pay etention 2 me' or whatever will just be replaced with 'omg lok i was banded becuz i em nto frends wit staf!1//'. With a much smaller userbase it was hard enough - now it must be hell.
 
Solution: someone make a thread in general discussion with all the possible problems new players face, the questions they will most likely ask etc. From this, maybe they can be persuaded to add sections to the FAQ to deal with these aching problems that need such urgent assistance - anything else, such as unique problems can be sent to Pan/JLH via e-mail I'm sure.

Over the past two weeks I have seen them all, so they DO uncloak occasionally.
 
They have the cloak function to be able to work on things wihtout getting page after page. After all, they still see all the yells in the game.
 
And I agree with Harky. Adding to the FAQ might stop a lot of questions ingame. It would also help if newer players read the help and technical support forums occasionally. I know a lot of my questions were answered there, because someone else had asked them already.

the FAQ does exist, and when something common comes up, i do actually add to it, but no-one bothers reading anything on the menus...

Before I re-installed nightmist I had a nice macro with a link to the faq but I've not re-written it since I lost all my macros heh. Just spend more of my time answering them and less of the newbs time searching for them, but hey I'm a happy guy!

(To Aidon): Well... I do live in the USA... and I think that Stotic is the only sysop from here... wich by the way, I think that the usa could use more than one on at a time... (just what I think...)
 
(To Stotic): I diden't mean it like that!
 
(To Harky): I agree... but, I think that the sysop's should just use their ignore list more often... and if the ppl keep pageing them when their on... then, they should go to "hidden" mode... (not as soon as they log on... wich I'm sure that most of them do... (most) )...
 
(To Lady Maha):  All... wow... you must play alot! (But where do you live is the question now...)
 
I rest my Case(s)

Get some x-ray specs....
 
They dont need to personally show themselves to you, they have better things to do.
 
Unless you can come up with a good reason why you need to see them then just leave it alone... If you just wanna see them to 'make sure their still there' They are, I guarantee it... lol They wouldnt leave, nightmist is like internet crack... They cant leave...

As long as they answer yells and monitor trades, what does it matter if they are covert?
 
Edit: Answer REASONABLE yells....
