Title: Hiring moderators
Post by: Kilgore on November 28, 2015, 07:37:20 pm
Hello,

We are looking for moderators of following forum boards:
- French
- Polish
- Russian
- Czech
- Spanish
- Barter Ground
- (optionally) The Thunderdome

Requirements:
- Being a forum member for a while,
- As neutral towards other factions/players as possible,
- Mature behaviour,
- Being transparent; removing only serious crap, especially in case of Thunderdome; Reloaded forum is not nazi-moderated and I don't want it to be, ever. There is not much work with moderating this forum most of the time, but sometimes trash is being posted and it should be removed,
- Well, if you think you won't be around in a month or two, then you shouldn't apply; we don't want to look for a new person every month,
- An ability to stay calm despite being the target of a verbal offense will be useful; some people can get upset about their posts being removed; you are not likely to get many thanks from the community, but you will surely receive some hate & flame;
- Of course, if you screw up, then well
Spoiler: show

If you feel you are the right person to do some voluntary work and you meet all the requirements, PM me or post in this topic. I know that some people applied for it in the past, but sorry guys, I don't remember who was it - please reapply.

I nominate Strike and Henry, they're both neutral with everyone and don't participate in PvP, so there won't be any butthurt if they ban someone, etc.

I will volunteer. I only know English though.

Interested, but only for english sections.

I can help to moderate the English stuff if needed, bartergrounds and general discussion and the like, but I'd rather not moderate the Thunderdome :) that place is often beyond me, and I honestly wouldn't know how to moderate such a section.

Cleaning up old, pointless, out of place or just plain troll topics I can easily help with, I usually log into the forums once every day or two anyway, so I might as well assist if you need the help.

I could focus and help out with Thunderdome. It is place to get mad and discuss fiercely, but even there no1 should go overboard. I guess I could handle it and I'm available at least once a week.

I think you're being nice, so i say thanks. But i also say wow you don't know me like at all. I am opposite of neutral. I am highly reactionary. Neutrality disgusts me. And i do PvP. I love good PvP, especially Town Control. Also he wants people who know these other languages, and i do not.

So thanks for nomination but i believe i am not qualified to moderate on this server now, for these 3 reasons.

Thunderdome needs a vet, not a mod, to master all these savage life forms posting there.
Title: Re: Hiring moderators
Post by: Henry on November 29, 2015, 07:29:37 pm
Yeah i'm a 5-year vet going back into 2238 but still i say no, i would not rule the way Kilgore wants. Best i can ever do here is some dev work, and maybe a general game admin based on my honesty, ie i would not spawn good items for anyone including myself. But for now i would still rather play the game rather than be in charge of anything.

If i ever host my own FOnline server, you will see a mod style you've never seen before in this game. That statement alone should be my answer.

Maybe someone who is not interested nor concerned by the thunderdome.

There is no such a guy, maybe except noobs...but even they will join thunderdome one day...
Title: Re: Hiring moderators
Post by: Kilgore on November 29, 2015, 08:03:48 pm
Charlie should handle it.

It's not like there is much to moderate in the Thunderdome anyway. Most of the time it's forum pvp inside pvp screens and movies, and sometimes heavy stuff in forum pvp. Or "cheating reports" which should be sent via PM to admins.
Title: Re: Hiring moderators
Post by: Mad Matt on November 29, 2015, 08:05:30 pm
Not much ? There are tons of shit which should be moved from PvP Screens and videos to PvP Forum :D

Like this one, for ex:
remek its not propaganda ... killgor is your friend and u help them unban players when thay cheating in game. fust relog and duallog... is a chaeat... btw U WIN!!! its all good.

and u do the same when u whos fighting with khans in tb fights. put screen on forum when u cheat and be happy. brawo dla tych Panów. Takimi oszustwami udowadniasz jaki jesteś słaby. Ty, Twoja drużyna oraz lider który na to wszystko pozwala. Wyżej chuja nie podskoczysz... chyba że go nie masz...
Right? :D

Yeah i'm a 5-year vet going back into 2238

If Henry were up for it I'd support him.

I'm still up for moderating the Barter Grounds. But for some reason, Kilgore thinks I'm a scammer xD I'm the most honest Khan of all.

Here is the story if anyone is interested.

Spoiler: show
I originally bought a book of achievement from a friend. I was under the impression it was high level (in the 80's I think). So I decided to re-sell it for a profit. Zinthos bought it from me for something like 2 Million caps. Then, when he tried to use it, it didn't work. It was already used. (This was before the Book update). So he told me about it, and then I refunded his caps. I don't even know if it really was used! But I still gave him his money back because I am the most honest Khan  ;D


I think anyone I have ever made deals with will vouch that I am definitely a very honest trader.
Title: Re: Hiring moderators
Post by: Solaire on April 20, 2016, 06:01:00 pm
Maybe you are honest trader but as mod you would take sides thats clear:P
And that black guy from the 1st pic is the same one who is on the middle in the 2nd pic mystery of this 2 pics connection is solved

Praise the sun !!!

I don't know if a moderate moderator really matters TBH.

As long as the right people get banned for the right reasons I personally could care less.

The only reason to have a neutral moderator is fear that when he takes sides he shows favoritism to his friends. Or gives off the wrong impression of the staff, and by extension the whole game/community.

Though if you ask me.

Gimper accurately represents 75% of the community that is active on the forums at this time. So perhaps it just shows he's exactly the kind of person who should be a moderator. And I believe if this were up for a yearly election cycle he'll win again next season.

Though if I had a choice I'd vote for Henry still.

Well I don't want to be a general mod, I just want to be mod for the Barter Grounds section. There would be no taking sides.

Please return my moderator in Russian territory. I did not do mistakes.

Well, Fat Hamerican Gimpher could be good moderator in Barter Grounds.

Here's a proof why I would vote for that lazy redneck:

If this were a democracy I would vote Gimp, he is really trustworthy. He would even make Bartering great again!

Gimper actually made it crystal sparkling clear to us that he wouldn't take sides and that'd we have to respect that and we do. Gimper has done alot for this community and I think he would be a great moderator on the forums!
Title: Re: Hiring moderators
Post by: Gimper on April 23, 2016, 02:29:20 pm
Hey guys thanks for the support! I hope Kilgore and the crew will at least consider me. There isn't really anyways to "take sides" in Barter Grounds. It's simple for me I think,

If someone tried to make forum PvP in trading post, I'll put the post to toxic caves.
If someone is trying to scam, I'll make a public warning.
And I'll keep an eye out for other off-topic stuff.

But if you think it's not necessary, it's OK. Here is an example of total crap on the Barter Grounds.
http://forum.fonline-reloaded.net/index.php?topic=10425.0

http://forum.fonline-reloaded.net/index.php?topic=10484.0

etc etc.

Still, if you don't need help keeping this lovely forum clean, I'll leave it be.

Being a mod is a thankless, shitty job lol. If you want it though... by all means. I would support Gimper if he has the support of the community.

We could also always just fire him if he messes up too :p

Corosive, I know man. But I'd really like to contribute other than donations. My mapping skills are shitty, there are already plenty of wiki editors. I figured I could at least keep a section of the forum clean.

If you all would have me I'd be glad to help out the team (even if it is a small portion).

With all due respect sir I believe Gimper would be a *ahem* more uhh... I mean, you should't put more weight on your already burdened shoulders sir.
