When you know someone who would make a good GM please contact the development team. To be considered a game master one must be a long time player, speak good English, have a good reputation in the community and a clean record.
GMs are all invited players.
We take many different things into account when looking for prospective GMs, including:
 
1) we review personal gaming style and forum posts (this includes communication skills, clarity, and English language ability).
 
2) we consider the validity of the player’s abuse reports and as well as how helpful and friendly they have been to other players in the game.
 
The chance of a player being invited to become a GM is not based on combat level or wealth. It’s very true that you will not see a player fresh from Tulimshar given GM status, but it's also true that (someday) you may see a GM with lower combat levels than you are expecting.
We do check accounts fully before offering them GM status, so don't expect to be invited if you don't have a shiny-clean record even the Mana Seed couldn't outshine.
 
We don’t give out details on how close someone is to becoming a moderator, but rest assured that if you are a friendly, community-minded player we’ll be sure to notice.

The Game Masters are resposible for upholding the game rules. They can be identified by the red cap reading "GM". They are normal players who are selected by the developers because of their good reputation in the player community. When a game master witnesses someone breaking a game rule they can ban a player from the game and reset his/her character level. When a game masters punishes a player he/she will post the reason in the Court House forum.

Nominating new Game Masters

GMs are all invited players. We take many different things into account when looking for prospective GMs, including:

1) we review personal gaming style and forum posts (this includes communication skills, clarity, and English language ability).

2) we consider the validity of the player’s abuse reports and as well as how helpful and friendly they have been to other players in the game.

The chance of a player being invited to become a GM is not based on combat level or wealth. It’s very true that you will not see a player fresh from Tulimshar given GM status, but it's also true that (someday) you may see a GM with lower combat levels than you are expecting. We do check accounts fully before offering them GM status, so don't expect to be invited if you don't have a shiny-clean record even the Mana Seed couldn't outshine.

We don’t give out details on how close someone is to becoming a moderator, but rest assured that if you are a friendly, community-minded player we’ll be sure to notice.
