When we are seeing the new map moderator?

[Ash]

You know who I am, HFR. I made a rhyme about your little car. /rhyming over.

I used to be a map moderator, I used to used to be a map moderator and I used to used to used to be a map moderator. I resigned on all counts because I wasn't happy with the way things were going on, which have since been (semi-)rectified.

I just said I'd offer my help in cleaning up the queue -- without actually needing to give me staff powers, or anything -- if the Hive's admin team wanted it. I'm not applying for the job or anything (there's not even one going, for a start) I'm just saying I'm here if they need me re-re-re-re-re-re-re-again.

Frankly, Ash is the only one I would put as an additional map moderator. Thing is, he is objective, has past experience, writes flawless(in the terms of grammar and spelling) and great reviews, and has no desire to crush users who submit maps that aren't above average.

All of the others that were mentioned have either behavioral issues or simply don't have the skill to write a decent review. Some even have both problems.

All you mod-wannabes should look up to users like Ash and Captain Griffen.

 

[Ash]

Wow. Thanks for that, it pretty much made my day.

 

[Elenai]

Ash for map mod...

Sure why not!

 

[Gilles]

All you mod-wannabes should look up to users like Ash and Captain Griffen.

No, please don't. As good as they are at reviews, they are not ideal role models.

 

[Kwah]

If Ash actually wants to moderate maps, more power to him.

 

[CMarket]

Come on, Gilles. There has been some misbehavior but, as Ash himself said, there is no need to give him any staff powers if the staff deem it necessary. I mean, really, who has a completely clean record? At least you can count that he won't make the same mistake twice, something which is not guaranteed with the other choices.

And, as far as the map section goes, he has contributed greatly and that's all that we're talking about here. Somebody to write good and proper reviews to relieve the map section queue. Let bygones be bygones.

 

[HappyCockroach]

We have around 420 pending maps, i checked 40 consecutive maps and just one had received a moderator review.
I wouldn't think twice about Ash being a map moderator, and if he is willing to do it, it sounds like recusing water when thirsty to death.

 

[Elenai]

Proper review, without powers, is a good idea. I'd be willing to give Ash that much. He is afterall, good at it.

 

[Asomath]

Well, since it seems I am in that Mini-Jury still, I’ll review a couple maps to help the work-load, since bounty isn’t able to work at full strength at the moment. However, due to the fact I am also lazy, I’ll stop once someone, such as Ash, comes along to do it all again. I hope the higher-ups are able to work it out. Cheers for laziness!

You gotta be kidding. Gilles have the cleanest record as far as I recall.

 

[Zombie]

You gotta be kidding. Gilles have the cleanest record as far as I recall.

Who said otherwise? D:

 

[bounty hunter2]

I think Septimus misread something.

 

[HappyCockroach]

I suggest you guys to create some mini-mod recruiting thread and respond to people in private messages.

 

[Joe-black-5]

I suggest you guys to create some mini-mod recruiting thread and respond to people in private messages.

We already have a Map mini mods group. (they help the mod in reviewing maps)
Ash and Griffin were in that Group before.

That is what Septimus is speaking of. And many moderators have clean records, I don't seen the relevance of that.

[Ash]

He was simply stating that why should someone be prevented from doing a job, especially one that needs doing, because of past experiences?

 

[~Void~]

That is what Septimus is speaking of. And many moderators have clean records, I don't seen the relevance of that.

~Snap

My record is perfect, except for a few counts of lying.

{EDIT}

That is what Septimus is speaking of. And many moderators have clean records, I don't seen the relevance of that.

~Snap

My record is shit, so what? What the hell does a record mean anyways? I think we should look at how they behave NOW, not in the past.

When did I say I didn't think Ash should be a map moderator?

 

[Kwah]

~ ash 4 map-mod ~

;p

 

[CMarket]

When did I say I didn't think Ash should be a map moderator?

Well, you first wrote something like "I won't say anything", which lead me to believe that you thought my comment was bad. Now that I saw what you meant I wanted to say that I actually meant the other people who want to be reviewers should look up to them in terms of map reviewing. We're not talking about best role model in this thread, we are talking about cleaning the Map section, fast, but effectively above all else.

 

[Paladon]

If a moderator has no clean record, he is usually demoted.

 

[PurplePoot]

Not really, no.

 

[Linaze]

That would probably depend on how dirty the record is, and if it's that dirty, he/she wouldn't probably get promoted anyways.

 

[Pyritie]

It's not whether the record is dirty or not - if a user had a dirty record but recently they've been coming out very clean, then that's different from someone who still has an ongoing dirty record and doesn't try to come clean.

If you get what I mean.

 

[Ash]

I don't even think that's the case, either

 

[Linaze]

To get back on topic: now.

 

[Ash]

Yeah, we'll probably be needing more information than that.

 

[Pyritie]

Looked at his staff title?

 

[Ash]

Yeah, and the news update too.

Would've liked a more 'welcoming', or something along those lines, intro, though
