    Default Unprofessional Moderation

    One of the most common mistakes I see with Moderation is Moderators failing to get rid of the post from a thread. I see the original post edited and removed by a Mod but then scroll down a few posts and see the unacceptable post again in quotes. If you are going to remove something that is unacceptable or would offend someone then surely you would make sure that post is no longer viewable in that thread?

    I don't usually like complaining about things on here but with literally the majority of Habbox forum members wanting to be a Moderator I'd expect it to be easy to choose Moderators of a higher standard than this, this isn't a forum for the special needed:

    I think things on the forum side of Habbox are getting worse and worse and nothing is being done because management know they're still the most used Habbo Forum. ClubHabbo often has more members online, you'd think Habbox would up their game, but they haven't.

    I agree, they could pick much better moderators but they appear to be reluctant to get rid of the people who don't do the job properly. Good thread.

    Vote GommeInc for General Manager and Forum Manager. I'd whip my boys (and ladies) into line :8

    I prefer the personal/private message approach to trouble making anyway - let them know they are actually being watched

    And that thread is a valid comment about moderation today how?

    Moderators don't get paid for their job, therefore are not professionals so they actually don't have to be professional. Although it would seem right if they acted professionally, they are technically not .

    Whilst Habbox is in competition with other fansites, I don't they they actively watch who is more active anymore and are slowing slacking off and going down hill... :S. No offence to management, but it's becoming much weaker than before.

    The complaint is regarding that thread? If so that thread is back from Jan/Feb. I don't think that person is no longer a Moderator. Although, I will bring it up within the department regarding removing content that they check the whole thread for anyone who has quoted it.

    Moderators aren't computers.
    Failing to remove a post properly defeats the whole object of removing this post in the first place. It only seems to be a handful of Moderators doing this and to put it bluntly, you being one of them Invincible.

    Edit: To Matt G, no this thread is regarding Moderation on a whole. I was using that thread to show how many people would actually love to be a Moderator. You have just admitted that Moderator(s) in that thread were forgetting to remove the posts completely which does kind of prove my point.

    I'd like to see you prove that because I make a point of removing ALL quotes.

    That's a very strong accusation there.

    But then again, you are using evidence from February :rolleyes:

    I thought that's what you was getting at but I thought I would ask to make sure .
