Moderation Team Looking for More Members

Started by Halaster, April 18, 2024, 04:33:36 PM

The Community Mod Team would like to bring on 1-2 additional members. The team handles moderation of both the GDB and Discord server.

Staff receive mod applications in the first instance, which then go to the moderation team. Good account notes, and no recent bans/warnings/notes within the community is helpful. Any timezone would be helpful, but ideally one US timezone and people that have the time or flexibility to monitor an online space.

We are trying to enforce a higher standard of conduct in Arm's community spaces. Please see this post: https://gdb.armageddon.org/index.php/topic,60275.0.html

This is not a wholly pleasant task.  Ideally the mod needs to be reasonable, and tough: Listen, receive and issue criticism, without allowing it to become emotionally charged or a grudge.  Kind firmness should be executed: Rule breaking conduct might not be technically wrong, you might find it funny, or agree with it, but a standard of decorum needs to be upheld and that is entirely reasonable.
 
Applications should be put in via the Request tool using:  Game Related - > Question - Please use "Community Mod Team App" in the Subject line.  Please set as Unclanned if you could for clan. After the application is reviewed, MarshallDFX (Community Mod Team Lead) will try to schedule a brief discussion with you.

Items needed within the application:
* Discord account
* GDB Account(s)
* Reason for wanting to join Mod Team
* Any experience being a Mod somewhere else
* a brief description of your perception of the current moderation of Arm spaces eg it's strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats.

Still looking for some more volunteers, for this extremely rewarding role that totally makes everyone your friend.

(It also goes a long way towards the Community karma point).
