Remove the age limit, not everyone below 21 is a complete l33tsp3@king retard. Discuss.

I thought for the development team(s) the age limit was 18 and only for GMs is it 21?


Jee, I don't know Xillix, what's there to discuss? Other than the different departments of course.


Let's see,  there's Engine, Graphics, Public Relations, Settings, Sound and Rules.

All are important folks, if you have any talents, it doesn't necessarily have to be computer related nor artistic, i would advise for you to consider using it for the continual growth of PlaneShift. Just like there's no such thing as stupid questions, there's no such thing as  stupid talent!

I could be wrong, but don't you mean "hello world"?

I think I'll apply for the settings department... No wait, I won't... been there, done that. ;) Still though, it would be nice to see more "oldbies" on the team.

Thanks for your indirect support Phinehas xD

I hope I can get somewhere with this, I think I have plenty of time to devote. :P

Many have been invited but demurred for various reasons.

Minor point but Old does not necessarily equate to good

That really depends on your point of view. I find that most old players who have still stuck around have a better feel for the community, game, RP, etc. Not that there aren't exceptions, but if I was asked to choose between someone who had been around more than a year and someone who had been around less than a year, I would almost invariably choose the "oldbie".

I didn't mean the support to be indirect, Suno. Let me state this clearly: I hereby support Suno as a dev.

Sweet I'm an Olbie then ^^ Though ARGH NARNARNAR not old enough  :'(
It's nice that they accept volunteers ^^ I might volunteer one time :D Being accepted is another point ;)

Graphics would be nice, but not realistic, maybe something low priority  ::) I can edit xml files  :lol:

I agree with Phinehas. Opps that must be a first, haha. But he is right. "Oldbies" have a better understanding of the game. Good luck Suno. You will do a great job!

I only want to make it clear that we are perpetually actively seeking talent. Someone suggested that we need to make it more clear that this is so.

Right now settings is doing well, but still always looking.

Engine could use more people.

Art definitely needs more people.

PR definitely needs more people.

Music definitely needs more people.

If you have talent, patience, and a good work ethic we will even spent some time training you to be better at any of the above. Right now the key factor is presence and time to dedicate. PS does not happen by magic, it happens through hard work and dedication.
