Moderator Program

Some of you may have noticed, but I have wiped out the existing Volunteer Moderator Program and have begun to implement a new one. So please don't be suprised when you see some changes in the coming days.

The new MODs are from SOE?  =O

Majority of the volunteer MODs were cool, but if they are from SOE that would prevent a lot of heartache that has occured when the odd one gets 'over-moddy' " />

No, they are still volunteers and I have no problem with replacing them if they get too as you say "over-moddy"

I had noticed some similarities between our new phantom figure and the mods on the SWG boards when browsing them for the first time in oh, say 2 or 3 years.

So these officially are not the same Mods we've had before? Are they official SoE employees? Are they paid/do they have hours?

'Cause in one way it may be dandy to have moderation outside the player base, but on the other end, it could mean no more weekend forum moderation.

I'm still in charge of the volunteer moderator program in SWG. So this program will seem similar as I'm implementing the same training and rules the SWG mod program I created over here.

"So these officially are not the same Mods we've had before?"
Mostly different.

"Are they official SoE employees?"
No they are not employees, still volunteers.

"Are they paid/do they have hours?"
no, and what ever time they volunteer.

What logistical differences can we expect to be seeing in the near future besides name changes?

Wha??  No more Jurymen??

I like this idea better. It increases anonymousity amongst the moderators, as well as a few other things.

Thanks

Basically the same moderators from before, just under a different system.

Actually... that's not exactly true

Beat me to it...

I like the idea, but this makes me sad.

Player Forum Mods is favoritism imo. Everyone should be on the same level.
