Forum moderating

In the past I have felt that moderation has been a bit slow, but recently it seems fine. Also a few recent thread closings have been a bit strange... But overall moderation is pretty decent at the moment, and there's nothing bad in that massive fansite thread.

OK, thanks for your post. :)

This is a fair and decent reply which I thank you for.

That post in general was pointless shush :(.

Although overall I don't see much problem with moderating.

double standards/bias
no understanding of context
at times completely dumb
overly moderated

but w/e not had any problems recently

I personally find the Moderation Team is doing great for what I can see. For being a small department, when you report stuff the process goes pretty quick. Maybe some day Chris will pick a few more members to be Moderator but to me they are doing fine :)

Think you're getting moderation and censorship mixed up there.

Gonna assume this is based on one thread, as it's the only time I've seen you around or even complain about anything.

One thread does not define the moderation team. They're pretty good given how many a-wipes are on here.

Thank you for that very detailed and descriptive feedback. I am sure Habbox has taken it on board and will now be making huge changes to the moderation department.

If you see a rule break, report it to make a moderators job faster.

I don't see how that makes us bad moderators :S

Oh, and what you also might want to take into account is that we are not employed. We are all volunteers here on this forum, giving up our free time to moderate the forums and to receive pointless criticism isn't fantastic. If you have constructive criticism to make that we could act upon, then fair enough - but you don't. Currently there isn't a massive demand for new moderators, unless chris feels we need a new smod, then a new mod would take their place but it's fine how it is now. We can't all be oline 24/7 and when we are, and there is a rule break, I think it's dealt with very quickly.

If you think that moderation is poor how do you think it can be improved?
