Re: Random Messages Thread: Chapter Twelf - Starring Shia LaBeouf

I don't know what forum moderators do exactly...

Keeping users in check is obvious, but I don't know what else they do

Ban spambots

Make sure the rules are being upheld

Help users with questions

Make plans for the future

Basically make sure everything's going smoothly

You can't accidentally report something, btw.
There's a confirmation step.

Re: Random Messages Thread: Chapter Twelf - Starring Shia LaBeouf

I don't even know where the report button takes me

I don't want to accidentally report someone who's well-behaved

You can click on it, and you'll just see an empty text box, once you submit we get the report.

Spam.
Be a point of contact, help users
Manage threads
Boosting activity
Warnings/Infractions
Light decision making

As an admin, I do a lot of behind the scenes stuff, i.e helping to work on projects for the future.

Mods generate spam? HUZZAH!! @jackatlasred; I have found our true calling!!!

Do mods archive threads, or is it automatic?

It's fine I'll nail the interview with jeans and a t-shirt. And fake promises and lies.

What we have is actual online applications for when we run a staff drive, we've had one every year since at least 2011. Not had one this year, and I have no idea if we will have one.

You know, I think the moderators could use a loose cannon.



Yes, I know being one is a bad thing. :/

@Baf; I was actually going to ask about that...

I've been told they exist, but I've never seen a staff drive...short of KM's signature pictures.

Before I got a decent quality computer, the Section Head badges looked like "Section Nerd".
