I/We are not asking for specified shifts or promoting more admins. All we are asking is admins should be more consistent.
Consistent as in online longer? Because the day just does not have enough hours for us to spend more time on the server than we actually do. As i tried to make clear earlier we do have a real life, and we are spending our free time here. Many admins spend more time with LWs than with their personal lifes, for example Aryan is here despite studying and he was here last month during his midterms where he should have learned instead. Freak sometimes even plays from his workplace, just let me mention that this can get you fired in most companies. Blewert is studying and in parallel working at a laboratory as research assistant in addition, and still finds time to join. I have personally sacrificed an entire five years of my life only for LWs (and tv shows).
But of course thank you for noticing another solution i had missed about earlier, propably because it did not seem propable as explained.
If we keep taking examples of the failures , we cannot succeed ever. If others could not resolve the problems dsn't mean we cannot. And responsible volunteers are way more beneficial than employees.
And the thing about treating hackers eventually is, that sometimes hacker/cheater hacks only for 1-2 days, to dominate/fun/revenge or anything, which causes trouble to other legitimate players. And after that 1-2 days , they start playing normally, which results in they never being caught and admins never believing us without proof.
That's a bit of a naive point of view but i'll give you that, the youth shall keep their dreams because that is what motivates us to go further. What this example should make clear is that there is no 100% coverage, there is not a perfect solution. There are problems in the world that cannot be resolved, they can only be compromised with accounting to the interests of different parties looking for a solution. This issue is one of them, and like with any of them the only solution is a balance in compromise that will reach an effect with that all parties can agree, and as you will see that will mostly never bring a 100% success as a complete solution always lies within extremes that will completely disregard interests of one or several parties in favour of certain interests of another party.
For the case you've mentioned i personally don't know of any case where this actually happened, and of course proof is needed when taking administrative actions, we will never take any action without solid proof to base it on.
See the great whole. The important question is are you having fun playing on LWs? Because there are
always setbacks in any part of life, there will always be bad days and sometimes you will be frustrated. That's how the world works. There is no reason to be upset about a failure, life goes on, and success only lies one report away.
Apart from that i still think imho that you generalize to much. Some random incidents are not necessarily an indicator for a fundamental problem in a system's concept. Just saying.
