The New Moderation Changes.

[Neversoft]

You can't abuse the forum games section or the music WAYLTK thread. There is no rule about the amount of posts you're allowed to make. As for cool rooms, I didn't know you were required to post more than that? If you are, please direct me to where that's stated



By using the 'contact us' form, what do you think it's there for?

Ignoring me now eh.

How often do they reply to contact us? And if I remember correctly it wasn't even working a few days ago...

To be perfectly honest I hear reports of it "not working" every other week, if theres that much of a problem with it I think something needs to be done about it, or maybe rig up a system of letting users email the admins directly on an @habbox.com email or something.

Sorry Not on purpose!!

Erm, well Elkaa tries to reply to emails daily and yeah, they were having problems with it but it's all fine now!

Moderation is mostly all about judgement theres no way we can explain each possible outcome for each rule. Thats why the infractions/warnings given out are checked by smods/admins and why we allow members to report any unfair ones so they can tell us their side in case of mis-judgement or confusion. You have to remember, the people moderating are mostly teenagers not trained professionals .

So why make them seem like professionals :rolleyes: Whenever someone moans about an infraction or the rules, it's never stated that their knowledge is about the same as anyone elses. They're put forward as individuals with higher knowledge than all other members, when they're about as dumb and stupid as the rest of us, and in some casers more or less.

Surely you should be moderating moderators and see how bad they are with infractions and bold, red letter edits and if they don't do a satisfactory job, deal with them? It's suggested time and time again, and the outcome is that they'll get upset... So? Should be doing your job properly.

[jesus]

We didn't talk about infractions.

I'm talking about your constant rule breaking.
The spam etc.

But i guess your dong your job now telling people to read the forum rules.
All im trying to say is you spam all over the forum.


And there still no specific reason to why the old system went and the new system is coming in. :rolleyes:

If I constantly broke the rules I'd be infracted.

Sorry Corey but he doesn't spam. There is no rule against making lots of posts in one day. All of Jamie's posts contribute to the topic at hand so all his posts are justified. Spam is if someone went around posting, "LOL" - "YEH" etc. Jamies posts are lengthy and as I said, he's always contributing.

He won't listen, there's no hope!

I got 3 unfair warnings yesterday mate.

Oh, and it is a ton of trouble because they never reply. :rolleyes:

They were confirmed 'fair' by 3 seperate super-moderators.

You were permed for like 3 years lol

Infractions didn't exist back then!

And if you get unfairly banned how can you use the thread?

There's a link that says 'Contact Us' at the bottom - you use that.

Oh sorry, he posts:

LOL, that made me laugh.
Abuses the forum games section
Abuses the 'What music are you listning to now'
In cool rooms, looks good.

I can go on, thats spam.

Now im finished with my rank about Jesus because overall he is a decent moderator.

@Garion & Neversoft

I couldn't agree any more.

If you can provide evidence of where I've posted on multiple occasions 'LOL that made me laugh' or 'looks good' then I'll give you 100 thrones on Habbo UK.




As I've said, we have inside information and that's why we might agree more with these changes.

Hmm since I'm not a moderator anymore I won't comment on whether I thoght they were fair or not since my opinion won't be valued. However, I suggest you PM ---MAD---, Elkaa or both if you still feel that they were unfair.

As I've said, we have inside information and that's why we might agree more with these changes.

That excuse is dried up and invalid. On a forum, nearly everything is on show. There is nearly no 'inside information' other than how the system works for people who don't have the powers to use them.

Good. Everyone else seems to be against everything that the forum ever does... until it's them who are being bullied or whatever. :eusa_booh

It's mainly because it doesn't make sense. They just chuck a system into the deep end and hope for the best, rather than propose the ideas to make people get ready for them and most important, see how it fits in with any other system that works in, around and through it.

[Nixt]

I neither agree or disagree with the lack of warning PMs. I'd have to see how things are in the long-run to make a judgement on whether it was a good idea or not, which is why i haven't justified my opinions on this as well as the auto-banning.

I do know what you mean by the concept of 'if it's not broken, don't fix it' - I usually agree and I can see why some members might be in disagreement. But from my point of view, it makes the system a lot easier. Not only this but the other changes that you don't know about and I probably cannot mention. That might be why I'm in agreement to it and other users aren't.

Easier isn't necessarily better though, is it? Why are members not told about all of the changes? If it means we can understand it's foolish not to tell us, because with the way it is currently presented is making it look like a bad idea to many members.

Warnings do NOT count towards a ban. It happens now before this new system pointless warnings were given out making a caation happen then they got reversed. So it will happen anyway, nothing new really?

If cautions were given out on the basis of pointless warnings before the Moderation on this Forum is in a bad state indeed. As I mentioned before, Super Moderators should be individually checking Infractions and Warnings they are using to justify a ban or caution. At least, that's what we used to be told and I see no reason for it to change now.

So you can see the updated moderation guide can you? The changes make it easier and more convenient for us as moderators, that's what I'm saying is the reason for us liking the changes.

[Neversoft]

Sorry Not on purpose!!

Erm, well Elkaa tries to reply to emails daily and yeah, they were having problems with it but it's all fine now!

Is Elkaa the only one that replies to the emails? Thats bad.

To be perfectly honest I hear reports of it "not working" every other week, if theres that much of a problem with it I think something needs to be done about it, or maybe rig up a system of letting users email the admins directly on an @habbox.com email or something.

Yeah. Although if they did set up a new system that would most probably start 'not working' aswell. :eusa_wall

They were confirmed 'fair' by 3 seperate super-moderators.

You mean they were confirmed fair by you.

Hmm since I'm not a moderator anymore I won't comment on whether I thoght they were fair or not since my opinion won't be valued. However, I suggest you PM ---MAD---, Elkaa or both if you still feel that they were unfair.

Thats what I did with another unfair warning I got a few days ago and it got reversed. Might just PM him again.
