Is there a site where I can find "All you ever wanted to know about N4
server administration but were afraid to ask"?

I have read that there used to be a way in N3 for server admins to
throw black flags and yellows, and that this is missing from N4. Is
this true? If so, dang, why on earth take something like that out?
And here's a vote for putting it back in.

I'll probably think of more questions, I'm sure.

You are correct, **MANY** of the admin commands from N3 are not available in
N4. :-( An N4 admin cannot throw cautions, clear or cause black flags, etc.

What do you need to know about N4 admin stuff??

Because for each option we gain, it seems that Papyrus also thinks we have
to lose a different one... It's been like that forever.

N4 is dead for Papy <cough>upcomingpatchnevergotreleased<cough>.

Just wait and see how many option we're gonna lose this time with NR2002.

Those features didn't exist in GPL, so they couldn't be transferred over to
N4. N3 used a different codebase, so anything that you see in N4 that is
similar to a feature from N3 had to be completely rewritten for N4 unless it
could be taken from GPL.

OK, so it didn't get taken it out... Do we all need to send Papy a
"round to-it" for these admin features to be added to the new code
base?
