Democracy!
I'd prefer it if no staff of any kind post on this, for that could influence the opinion of non-staff players. I would like to hear the honest opinion of the community on whether or not they think it'd be a good idea for Toribash to become more of a Democracy.
i.e: After the staff team decides they think someone is fit to become a FULL GM (trial GM should be decided upon purely by the staff team in my opinion [sorta-not really like a closed primary]. THEN, the community votes on who the staff believe should become full), the community should then vote on whether or not they agree. Obviously, we would need some sort of "Absolute Threshold" where within maybe a weeks time at least 100 people needed to have voted for it to have influenced the outcome of the staff's decision.

Not supported, too exploitable. Someone who dislikes a GM could just make a ton of accounts, and continuously 'down-vote' that GM, and vice versa if a GM and a normal player are friends.
Boerhae, making a glorious return!

I'm no coder (is that a word?), but I'm pretty sure you can limit the vote per IP address... no?

You can't limit IPs period. That's why IP bans aren't issued in Toribash. As soon as you try to do that, players simply play/post/vote by proxy.
Need help?

One of the local moderators should merge this with the thread I made that was pretty much the same thing as this.
Like I had brought up in my thread, maybe just have us comment on the trials that are about to inaugurated, considering the gm's are here for US USERS in the first place, why not have us choose the ones we appreciate?
And about the whole "It's exploitable" issue, just having us comment and give our opinions on them would still give trials a chance even if someone disliked them enough to even do that (Even though the staff do have the power to tell if a user is using multiple accounts....)
