Moderation (moved from zone)

Rufus · #1 10-14-2008, 01:31 AM

I just took a glance at the staff groups and as I don't really visit this section of the forum (like most) and I didn't notice until now that there are five moderators for this one section. I'm either confused or missing something here, I didn't think this area was that popular?

Vulcan never moderates anything really lol.
Dante/Dan are admins, they should have moderation rights.
I use mine mostly for sticking and unsticking threads related to events. I myself just hate having to ask and wait for someone else to do something simple like stick and close a thread. I moderate things when its obvious they need be moderated.
Supernanny does most of the actual moderation of peoples posts, making sure no one breaks rules and what not.

Does it matter? Zone seems to be the forum that needs the most moderation lately.

So we should moderate what needs not be moderated. How does adding more moderators increase how "alive" a forum is? :S. Anyway, I told you why the 5 of us have moderation rights, except Vulcan who probably doesn't really need them xD.

Doesn't matter how many mods there are to a forum as long as they are being moderated. I dont see the problem here, nor do I see why it needed a thread.

Well hey pal.. that doesn't matter.. because I don't see why there needed to be 5 moderators so I guess we're both confused here!

I feel as though there's a rather laughable mess in the priorities on this forum. The graphics forum has 0 moderators, and hasn't had one for quite a while. When we did have a moderator there who knew what he was talking about and encouraged activity, that forum did well and we seen some rising stars surface. The forum is now used to showcase work, which is not exactly development. I find it hilarious how hard it is to get some decent moderators appointed, yet we've got the small Zone forum with five of them.

So basically this is you admiting that you've posted a thread that has virtually nothing to do with Zone and is just complaints about lack of moderation on other forum sections...

It doesn't, not in the Zone section anyway.

No, I asked why this forum needs 5 people to moderate it.

*this small section of the forums
