spam

too little mods, complain.
too many mods, complain.
one is never happy with anything eh?

I agree ^ when I moderated the general section I think it was just I and Biohazard. I mainly concentrated in spam and Bio else were but we moderated the whole forum. In spam it was an extremely hard job, there were a lot of rule breaking going on and people believing it was ok to do so as it was ''spam'' with meaningless threads/posts. In spam you are constantly editing people’s posts, removing inappropriate content, issuing user notes, warnings and infractions. When I was doing this I had a lot of negativity directed towards me for doing the job which hadn’t been done very well for a while. When I was fired as a moderator and I think 4 new moderators went into the forum to moderate it people were complaining that there was not enough moderation, from what I could see there was none.

I do think that 7 moderators, even if they are trialists are over the top. Three active moderators in the forum who deal with rule breaking and clearly set out rules for the forum from the GM/FM would help the forum a lot and save a lot of ago of moderators being accused of being power mad or not doing their job.
