Mini-Moderator?

[s4nji]

What is really "Mini-Moderator?"
I found it like this :

Mini Moderators - Vote for approval
Click here to cast your vote on whether or not this model should be approved. (Thumbs Up) (Thumbs Down)

Can someone tell me what does this do, why did I (or many people or even all people?) be a Mini-Moderator or it is shown to all users?... I'm Confusing myself...

Note : It's not like I don't want to be IT, but I just want to ask.....

Well mini moderators was helper of standard moderators. They could vote for approval and suggest which reosurce will be approved.
Now I don't know what are they, who are they, I have no idea what current staff is thinking about to do about that.

I think everyone has the option now, and it just still has that title from the staff days for some reason.

It's basically to help moderators decide if the map is on the edge, or at least that's the impression I get.

Mmmm... But if everybody has it its kinda pointless. If ya like a map you can rate it normally.
It would probably be better if people with more than (e.g. 25) rep could have a mini-mod vote & if (e.g. 10) Mini.mods have voted thumbs up the resource gets approved.

But the Staff have probably thought this through and the current sistem is probably logic and fair, i hope. Would be cool if someone could shed some light on this or post the link to the thread where this is explained.
Thx,

Everybody can vote for the approval or dissapproval of a resource, by giving a review to the source-mod.

Thats basically what it means.

It's not the rep that counts, it's who counts the reps.

Now, seriously, I doubt that rep should be the one making difference between people, you can have 20 rep, even if you are a complete retard. Also, with this mentality, we could bring back promoted mini-mods too, and it would be more reliable.

oki...
So writing stuff like "Da model is da shit" or "My mama could have done better!" are not constructive or usefull.

The worst is.. some people vote approve at their own resources.

 

[communist_orc]

Mmmm... Ralle should programm something that if that happens -> 2 days infraction + (- rep?)
Or just make it impossible (IP check or something)

Ehhrm, you can't do that at your own maps, I've tried

 

[TheBlooddancer]

Either ways, it doesn't work.

To review your own map..
