I travelled with Hazeel as he went to each of the other Generals who doubted Dethal and told them what they wanted to hear.


Aww, I didn't make the list.

Guess that makes me a Lore FC Zarosian...?

Anyway, I still don't see the need to give ownership to anyone else.

You guys keep talking about vauge concepts like inactivity, leadership, and "issues"- but I would really appreciate a concrete reason we need someone online more often, who can permaban people and solve general on general disputes- to my knowledge, we don't. As Hazeel already said, we can temp ban people already- and when generals cooperate and stay online, that's just as good really as a permaban- and general on general disputes are very uncommon and almost always brief and kept out of the fc in general.

How does giving the key to anyone make it easier for them to solve problems?

Spoiler alert: there is no reason.

I think when some people--not all of them--say that Dethal needs to be more active...they mean he needs to start perma banning people at the drop of a hat.
Runescape doesn't need a hero...it needs a villain. An all encompassing force of evil that will remain ever-threatening and use chaos to make the peoples of Gielinor tolerate each other, grow strong together, and fight side by side against this evil. I am that villain.

No. Your post referenced the interpersonal issue, which is not something that needs Dethal's input at all.

If two (or more) FC members are at odds, that's their problem. If it spills over into the chat, generals have the ability to shut it down. If the issue is a recurring one, that just makes it easier to spot and take immediate action (i.e. you can skip the warnings and just ban). Our job as generals isn't to resolve disputes, but to moderate the chat.

From what I know of the specific incident in question, I doubt that Dethal's raw charisma/ability to permaban would've been of any help.

This.

I have to echo Rally here- I see no reason this issue (once it became a serious issue) couldn't have been solved by generals, and no way in which if it wasn't, the owner being involved would've helped.

To echo the general sentiment, Dethal's doing fine and there's no need for a change any time soon as far as I can tell.
I'm getting an 'azzanadra pretending zaros is still alive' vibe from this
Azzy was right, though.
I'm pretty cool
