A moderator for every server section would be too much, especially if each is from that server. There are only a few servers that have a lot of drama. Best bet would be to appoint 3-5 people you trust and feel would do a good job, but they could only delete post and not ban people or such. Maybe give strikes till they are banned or suspended from the section. I am afraid that is a strike mate! (little inside joke)

Well i feel i should be able to ban but the banned person could take the case to LFG if need be. If so said person is posting in a server section just to give the mod a hard time... he should be able to ban him. But no unrightful banngings...

Volunteer moderating? Good luck to anyone who takes on that job, I hear it can gain one a lot of unjust hate. :D

Moderating that many moderators is gonna be a job in and of itself.

The class board mods work well because those boards are more of an information dump. It's all fact based and this site has more than enough people who are knowledgable to the point that the community can regulate dis information on its own and keep things appropriate. Even without the class leaders.

The server boards are more about drama, and there aren't any facts involved. I don't think you'd be able to find someone from each server who is both, detached from every possible situation enough to be always fair, and reads the boards with enough regularity to be effective.

I'd think you should go with one or two who can only touch things on the server boards. Make it implied that they post every time they have to change something. Too many hands in the pot and it could turn into the boring official forums where you can't fart without a mod jumping down your back.

I voted no. How much server moderating have you done in the past? Most people on here know what can and can't be posted. If something does get posted that crosses the line send Niber or LFG a pm and they can handle it as necessary.

Find a partner in crime. I'm sure there is someone you can enlist to mod the forums.

I can see one or two mods, but not one for each server, besides you really only need to moderate Befallen anyways.

Default Re: Vote: Should the Server Sections have a Server Leader?

I vote yes, but with the rule that nobody can moderate a forum of a server that they currently inhabit (on any toon), to prevent bias.

So for example LFG could not moderate the Kithicor forum.

I voted no to the specific question, but would support having a few roamers that can handle the daily dumb stuff until you and Niber can get a look.

As others already stated, I doubt you'd find 1 person on every server that fit your criteria. Shouldn't be too hard to find a few regulars to roam around and keep the place from burning down though.

As long as a mod can not ban then it 'could' work because then if they did anything wrong the site users wouldnt let them get away with it cause they could simply PM you or Niber.

for the most part I agree with Illuminator though.

PLease recruit starryEyedElf to Mod 1 section for you LFG. I would so love to be able to annoy her on a daily basis again!
