The Great Reform

The People Behind the Great Reform
In May 2020, during Rose's Administration, then Moderator Pagkosmios suggested that in order to revive and strengthen the declining Terran server, a wide variety of Reforms needed to be adopted in order to upgrade roleplay and bring back old members and engage on them once more in the community. Though the Great Reforms were orchestrated by Pagkosmios (known at that period as the Great Reformer), then Owner Rose (Vinrossia) also assisted in the development of the ideas.

Economy
Pagkosmios' original idea consisted of a roleplay only economy, that would enhance the roleplay and give members more in depth control of their nations, where every action would have consequences. Of course, this created practical problems, such as requiring a much larger staff team that would specialize in such moderation. The system that was ultimately pushed forward, was a mix of the old "Role Economy" and the Roleplay Economy, where roleplay would allow you to upgrade your economy, essentially getting a role with higher income.

Military and Units

 * Manpower: Although it had been used in the past, it was brought back in an updated form that was mainly managed by renowned Moderator Whispie and Owner Rose through a chart-form that was made. Along with population, a conscription system was created that effected the economy and stability of the player's nation and would allow you to draft x% of your population.


 * Construction: To create an element of realism, it was decided to create a unit construction system, where members would request to build a unit from a list provided by staff (that gave information on manpower needed, money required and how many hours/days until completion)

Staff Team
It was crystal clear, that in order for the Reforms to work as intended, the staff team would also require a rework. That is why the Moderator role was split into four types:


 * Community Moderator: Elected, who's job was to ensure correct use of channel and to supervise the server for rule violations
 * Roleplay Moderator: Appointed, these Moderators were the ones that answered all political gm requests
 * Economy Moderator: Appointed, these Moderators rated the player's posts in the "economic development" channel and gm-ed them.
 * War Moderator: Appointed, they gm-ed all player-player wars.
