Mod thinks he owns the place?

[WarezKid]

It takes time to get accustomed with applying the forum rules to moderation. Its not something that just comes naturally and I'm sure that if you were given a moderator position, you wouldn't have a smooth start.

i would ask for training. but i'm sure you got guides ect.

The point is, that all moderators (new and old) should have their work reviewed and any mistakes or errors pointed out to them; and then advice from an Admin or Super Mod stating what should of been done in the situation. This is exactly what happens and all moderators are constantly learning about how best to apply the forum rules.



I'm not going to say the moderator in question was wrong, I am merely trying to enlighten you that with every new job/task faced, people start slowly; as experience is gained, so to is ability .

Okay.

I'm sure that as your experience with people grows, you will also begin to understand how best to deal with a situation. For example, not making a complete scene of something as trivial of this, and openly discussing a particular member of staff in such a way that it leads all other readers to feel negatively towards him; when really, a simple PM to the (Assistant) Forum Manager would have sufficed. But of course you knew that .

i cant really, you see, i'm cautioned, but ye, i would have done that.

Bold...

From the people they've hired there is at least 4 or more that have been forum moderators on this forum before. Let alone other forums.

We have a strict and detailed guide to follow and we are bound to make mistakes at some point.

Agreed

i bet if you were a new mod you'll make mistakes im afraid everyone makes mistakes you have just got to accept that if you think you can do better at the job why didnt you apply?

Everyone makes errors and well the moderation guide is not one of them things you remember just like that on how to do everything. :rolleyes:

Though Mr.Sam remind me to rep you for actually giving us a chance before you judge us!

Tis' a shame.

Other mods let them carry on for a while until it got out of hand. Couldn't see anything wrong with it in my opinion.

Oh yes, now this Web Host section is going to be so good.

Out of interest, what mistake did he make? to me it just seemed to be taking an action not everyone agreed with. That to me wouldnt nessarly mean its a mistake. Everyone acts differnt, just the way things are.

There is a guide but you can't really take in all of it after a once over, it takes to time get accustom to it.
