Moderation is a little "soppy"

[Dean]

Doesn't prove anything There was no need to open them during that time as obviously it wouldn't be worth opening them for 1 moderator to come in. Now would be a good time to open them though perhaps.



Just depends whos on at the time I suppose and what they're doing. Even then 20 minutes isn't an issue. When it becomes hours then there is maybe something wrong.

I think anything around the 20-30 minutes mark is an issue and anything over 1 hour is definitely a major warning in your face, no?

Depends on how serious the issue is. If it was a pointless post or something then it wouldn't be an issue. If it was a spambot posting porn then yes it would be more of an issue.

Yes and no. I believe it should be a moderators responsibility to ensure things are done quickly, not 10-20 minutes, even if it is minor. It's not good in my opinion but that might just the way I do things? I like to be efficient but idk.

I guess there's a few mixed feelings on this one. Obviously it isn't essential to get, when there's only one normal moderator on for example, an AGM to edit a pointless post if it's been there for more than 20 minutes but when there's a few moderators & brandon on then over 20 minutes is an issue. I always think of it as "when you're online, you're on duty" and perhaps brandon needs to be a tad stricter with this because whilst the moderators have lots to do, if they're getting away with doing it a couple of hours after the rule break has been posted then it will only promote lazy, sloppy attitudes.

I'm all for making sure posts are dealt with asap and I believe that moderators should strive to get things done quickly, but I think some people assume moderators have nothing else to do when they're online. 10 minutes or even 20 minutes for a pointless post is not an issue at all imo.

Well then, as Alex says, maybe it should be made so that if you're online on Habbox Forum then you're online and people will suspect you'll be "moderating". If you are in other departments then this may be a little tricky but I'm sure something can be done. Maybe if you're busy elsewhere or not even looking at the forum then maybe log out to show your presence is no longer there?

not read the whole thread so dunno if its been said, but i'd just give every mod permissions in every forum and let them view post reports, but have it so only super mods could do bans and stuff.

Thats ridiculous. When a moderator is online then naturally they will be browsing their sections and keeping check but that doesn't mean they aren't doing other things at the same time. It's like saying if a rare vals reporter is on habbo then they have to be reporting values all the time. It just doesn't work like that. All I can say really is that you report the post for a super moderator to do or pass on.

Guess it could work. Think it was trialed in 2010 but was reverted back soon after.

I think it was yeah. Its worth giving anything ago if it improves things.
