Title: Request: Forum Moderator
Post by: Event "Janе" Horizon on December 18, 2012, 01:12:09 am
We have the occasional presence of a Dedicated Logic member to keep us on track.

However, with such limited resources - I am sure Dedicated Logic do not want to have to both moderate, answer the usual he-said-she-said PMs  and develop solutions.

So can we have a Forum Moderator sometime soon?
Please?

Personally i dont see the forum needing a mod, though the old tech forum did benifit from a mod so maybe put it on hold and use mod in future.

The trouble with delaying this is that it took some while for the mess in the old tech forum to be put right (and the forum was never properly cleaned afterwards due to the number of errant posts).


Having members posting colloquial obscenities (as has happened in the past) which are visible to the whole world to see then having to wait days for these to be removed will not be good for the game.

I have to agree with Jane here. I would like a forum where a  moderator is not needed but we have proved in the past that we really do need one

We've had this discussion before (https://my.afterworld.deelogic.net/survival/index.php/topic,352.0.html for those that can access it)

I'm still willing to be a moderator

if there should be a mod it should be someone impartial and 100% neutral who doesnt play AW, Devs got the old tech forum back on track and running well were past petty crap stoped.

I agree with "someone impartial and 100% neutral".

Not sure if "who doesnt play AW" matters as long as the above statement is true and the selected Moderator are aware of the risks.

The developers have better things to do with their time than moderate the forum.

An AW player that is a Moderator could also help with bug triage (something that is a time intensive process for development).
