EW Staff Situation.

[MetObij]

Okay, I won't get involved in this again. Slime is from the UK (if you don't like me saying that then you can edit it [user avatar="https://cravatar.eu/helmavatar/Slimegirl24/74.png" name="Slimegirl24"]11389879[/user] ) which means we are in the same time zone, I see her on quite regularly. Which, yes shows we need more mods in different time zones. I agree that there shouldn't be any promotions to admin. Last thing, I don't agree with this thread, think about it this way. If you were a partially active mod, and came on the forums and saw this thread where you were being criticised because of your inactivity, how would you feel? You would feel like the community don't support you. So stop making threads like this, and accept that Tim is thinking about it.

I'm a mod, I think these threads are great and that there definitely should be more mods.


And you know, the players actually got a point on my or my fellow staff's activity. It's low. Hence why more staff needs to be added. I would love to come on more if there would actually be more staff, so that I don't feel obliged because no staffmember is on.

I would not mind having more moderators. Too many reports go unnoticed, and the mods are usually not on. (No shoutouts to anyone, it is merely my opinion and statement)

Then there´s the problem of finding trustworthy players...

From the right timezone as well, as not too many people are active in some areas.

 

[Olex]

on other trend, people have said stuff like "It´s not their fault that they are busy IRL and cant be online that often"

we are not blaming them for being inactive, we are just saying that we need more staff since they ARE inactive.

 

[haldir100/Ruineth]

I agree with more mods BUT who would it be or how many?

I agree with more mods BUT who would it be or how many?

I honestly think 3 people per major timezone, ie: Australia & Southeast Asia, Europe.... etc.
This may be a lot of mods, but the hundreds of players need some discipline.

Hoe do you find good Players to be MOD?[/quote]
Take some time learning about some players and follow their ban record, let them follow an oath of joining (which is mandatory), and some small exams on LOTR, experience as Staff and all like that.

and say some oath or some kind of honest word. Tim can use this as evidence to ban them if they screw up.

That wouldn't work, since that some players are in a different timezone, AND some may ban everyone purposely

tbh, I would say that maybe the most Active players should be placed on a list of some sort and then the staff could vote for who should become mod? And then they would go through their ban record and learn them over the time to see who to vote for. I Think this is a great idea since we would get Active staff AND staff that can be trusted.

[MetObij]

I would say 5 new pre-mods.


We already came up with 3 of them, won't say any names, but if you guys have suggestions, please drop them here. Cause dropping some nominations might help the situation.

 

[Nash'ger]

I definitely nominate adamrob2002
