False Perception

Recommended Posts

Apparently some people feel (not my opinion) that the moderation (excluding Devin) is slacking off. They feel as though they aren't doing their job. Personally, I believe this means that the community is being well-behaved. HOWEVER, they're saying (not naming names) that the whole ISN'T well behaved.

 

Again, this isn't me. This is just two other high ranking users here on the forums. If the higher ranking users on the forums aren't pleased with how things are happening however, then maybe it's time for a self-evaluation.

 

In conclusion, what are the moderators doing?

If they have an issue with a moderator they can message Feld0 or Swoop and explain the matter. Zoop's on a make-believe vacation, so leave him out of this.

Yes, but people are so content to let things fester in the dung hole that are the statuses and whine and complain without taking any action to rectify the matter.

Considering that there have been 13,535 moderator actions logged that have not been carried out by Devin, I think this opinion is extremely uninformed.

If you explain the supposed issue to Feld0 or Swoop, they will look into the matter and judge whether there is in fact an issue. If they believe there is, then they'll do their best to address it.

 

There's not really any better an option than this.

I wasn't saying any of the moderators weren't doing their job. Overall, I'm satisfied with the way you guys run this place. Many of the forums I'm on it's like a melee and a moshpit 24/7. I know there's a lot of stuff that goes on. Maybe there should be a PSA since some users are obviously uncomfortable though?

Why is this even our business in the first place?

We aren't mods. We don't know what happens behind the closed doors of the forum. Let the mods do their jobs. Not our job to try and decide "OMG, WHO DUZ MOAR?"

I haven't seen anything that I think needs moderation. I've seen a couple things that get shut down that I didn't think needed moderation but nothing overstepping the bounds of a moderators job.

 

I think vague status complains should remain just that. Until they bring it up to someone with the power to change it, nothing will change. (Not that there is any evidence to support that more moderation is needed.)

I've seen plenty of posts being tended to and other things that weren't Devin, and I agree with Zoop. Hiding posts and the other limited amount of visible actions are only one of many that is blatant to see for members. There are many more that aren't seen or aren't noticed.

Moderation PSA:

 

Moderators do exist.

Moderators are doing their job.

I exist to make sure they're doing their job.

I am more than willing to provide information on moderator actions to clarify matters on moderator activity.

 

In case of moderator action/activity speculation and/or complaints:

Remain seated.

Do not be alarmed.

Do not panic.

Do not attempt to drama-monger - contact me so we can get to the bottom of it.

In case of panicing and drama-mongering, please opt to contact me personally. That's why I'm here in the first place.

If something does happen to go horribly wrong, please, blame Zoop.

 

This has been a Swoop public service announcement.


That's how it's been from day one. If people have questions, then all they have to do is contact the people who can provide them with answers; we're more than happy to oblige, you know. ^^
