more mods a.u.b
« on: 31 Mar 2012, 17:02:01 »
I think the server needs more moderators. Pretty much time there is no moderator online. Could somebody else become a moderator to? So i don't have to tell people to make a post on the forum. Because some are asking me what to do since i am not a mod i can only advice them to leave a post or topic on the forum. I hope there will be more mods on, even since ajh just became one, I have not seen him since... O and could the admins listen to the people from the server and let them vote who should be one no voting on yourself i think that would be a good idea.

We have several moderators already. It's the weekend right now, so we'll be living our lives also. ajhl HAS been on a lot, especially when I'm on in the evenings, (he'll have been on for a while before me).

A member pick would be a little dumb because there would be maybe one or two votes for many different people. The admins pick people they believe to be responsible.

Dragon, we i did have an idea like this, but it was put down due to the fact that one who is very popular could get many votes while one who would do the job properly and isn't so popular because they are capable would get very few votes. I tell people to stop, i reason with rule breakers, if i can't get them to stop i will just make a post about it on the forums. If someone has been griefed and they do not know what to do, i tp to them and make the grief report for them. It's all about what YOU can do until someone higher up is online... Like that charnel guy, we tried to reason with him we couldn't get through to him so we just let him "Tire" himself out.

Now esp, i am saying this as i have realised after making the other post :P

What dragon is trying to say is that there are NO moderators online when we are at night, i have asked especially for an Australian moderator, but nothing has been done like that. What dragon is saying is that he is feeling like the server is neglecting us when the main moderators aren't online. all the moderators are either form the UK, Europe or America regions. There are NO Moderators from the pacific, now you may count Asia regions as apart of the pacific, but they aren't really at the same time as we are :/

Anyway what we have been trying to say is that we want someone online when we the pacific region players are online.

You aren't supposed to 'reason' or attempt to stop any spammers/trolls, I've seen mods/admins say it numerous times about just reporting them because it could/would make the situation worse because the spammer/troll feels successful and then doesn't stop.

It has happened a lot of times that moderators/admins are not on whenever someone is spamming the chat or griefing etc but this does not mean we need more mods/admins in any kind of way, as Esp said in the post he posted is that it is weekend let people have a life not sit and guard a server 24/7 and also if people are spamming is it that hard to just ignore them like when the charnel guy was on and spammed the chat really bad i finished what i was doing instead of wasting time saying STOP SPAMMING cause it will often not help!

So if people got a problem with spammers i think the server should add a "Ignore" command like example /Ignore (name) so you cant see what the person says that would be much better then adding more staff members cause in my opinion it is more mods on the server then we really need.

I personally understand what masterrbc is saying, but I do agree with Miner_man to a great extent as well, too much staff on a server can be just as bad as not enough.

Even if there was one more chosen, there wouldn't be 'too' many Mods in all fairness.

i reason with them if i think they are capable of being reasoned with, with mass spammers, i'll just see what i can do, then report them.

Then you're breaking a rule of some sort to, if any member of the staff teams tells you not to do something then I'm pretty sure you know not to do it. You still try to reason with people even though it can help a lot, you are still going against a staff members word.

I have not once been told to stop by a staff member, i have been helping the server, there is a difference between A: not listening and B: helping the server, and as far as i am concerned, i am not one bit in the wrong for trying to help the server by reasiong with others.

If you want to carry-on, so be it, it's none of my business anyways, right? I was just trying to tell you something that's fact and may be a reason for you to be nagged at by a member of staff. I didn't say you weren't listening or not helping the server, in fact I said "even though it can help a lot".

An new operator will be added to our team when/if the team find someone who would make a good addition.  And the forum is here specifically incase there are no moderators online, therefore they should go to the forum.   There really isn't nothing else to say about this.

Well excuse me when I think it would be nice if the person would get banned/muted so we wouldn't have to deal with our chats being spammed up for up to an hour on end just because there was no mod online.

Didn't know it was bad to try to stop all the irritation everyone feels all because it may make some person who probably doesn't even bother reading the forums "proud" and "accomplished".

I would like to also point out that I hardly ever bother to respond to these people, unlike other people who will mock them or try to talk reason into them. I know not to feed trolls, so I take a screenie and report so it can be dealt with by a mod without having to cause some kind of scene or make the troll gleeful that people are responding.

I find it hilarious you quoted a message that says you should do exactly what I do (Which is report the user without causing a fuss so a mod can take care of it) and then complain that I do it. Why did you bother to agree to this quote and then hypocritically go against what you just agreed with?

Spammers dont look at the forums. And she's right, it gets REALLY old when you have a repeater comming on and off to spam the **** out of us. Achmed, watch what you say, it sounded rude.

Especially repeat spammers as the kid/kids that were MASS spamming us for a few DAYS.

That would still cause a problem. There will always be times where there is no one online who can do anything about someone causing trouble. Even if you add a few people outside of mods who can use the mute command there will still always be times when they are not on and cannot mute people.

This is what the report section is for. To report people for doing things against the rules. It's usually used when there are no mods on, which is when I post there.

I don't see how it's spam in the slightest. It's members posting their pictures/complaints against other users, which is what it's intended for. Each new thread deals with 1-2 different people that a person has found going against the rules, and mods lock the thread to move on after the problem is dealt with.

If you don't like the section then don't go to it. There's no reason to unless you happen to have something to report or want to check if you've been reported anyway, so it's not like people are demanding you go there.

Also, you used me in particular as an example. Saying you hated that I reported in this way. You could have simply said something like "People are just posting there to report spammers, which I hate", but instead singled out a single person as an example. I found this incredibly rude.

I will have everyone know that there is never "too much" staff on and there will never be "too many" staff members. There are many precautions you can take to ignore spammers. I know for a fact that there is /global leave (I think, I am a bit rusty on these sort of commands) this will not let you hear anything in the global chat. I know ineed has also set up some sort of chat that you are able to join until a moderator or admin is able to get on. We do have lives you know and there will always be a period in which a staff member is not on. Also, lately I have been seeing several moderators on pretty late.
