Our 'Rules' + Moderator Defaults

[GrandOldTeam]

Blues,

We're busier than ever;



This has prompted us, over in our plush mod central - to discuss our moderating stance for the season ahead.

The crux of the discussion is - can we moderate GrandOldTeam a little more leniently? Have we as a moderating setup become a bit miserable? (don't answer that...).

Anyway - it would be good to have some feedback on the below.

• What should the moderating warning system be?

As in, how should the moderators of your Everton forum, moderate.

We last revised our community guidelines in 2008 - I think they're still applicable, but I think we could improve on how we ask and prompt the community to follow the guidelines.

Currently, if a moderator sees a post that goes against our guidelines - they hit 'warn' and have a predetermined setup like so;



These allocate warning points - as below;

Warning System
30 Points = Suspended for 2 Days.
60 points = Suspended For 7 Days.
80 points = Suspended For 14 Days.
100 points = Permanently Banned.

Inappropriate Language: 10 points
General Behaviour Warning: 20 points
Off Topic: 20 points
Minor Spamming: 20 points
Posting Abusive/Offensive Material: 60 points
Spammed Advertisements: 100 points
10 and 20 point infractions expire after 30 days, the rest after 45 days.

The lower value warnings can be issued as a warning (0 points) at the discretion of the staff member.

You will be automatically notified via private message if you receive a warning - meaning the points wont mount up without you realising.

So...
Can our system be better?

Is it easily understood?

Is it fair?

How do we keep GrandOldTeam 'sound' and civil, but don't go to far and lose the fun.

Above all - If you could setup the moderating structure for GOT, what would it be?

I know it's difficult blues, but serious suggestions/feedback please...

Perhaps not.

But they keep tagging and replying.

Because like a moth to a flame you keep on flying in there, getting burnt, but still keep at it. You play the victim wonderfully. You would make a perfect little cum slut.

I reply to quotes.

Like I am now lol I mean if I didn't then it would kinda defeat the point in a forum....

Bungle is a creeper.

Well this was quite unexpected.

Also, I think @Ashtonian appears to have a personal issue with @chicoazul and it's getting a bit embarrassing to see it play out in public. Grow a pair and take it to a private conversation.

I actually don't have an issue with him. But he is apparently ignored now so not much I can do...

@chicoazul

Not sure I get what you mean. So the site is only good when you are winding people up and getting them to kick off? And by stopping you doing that the mods are being too harsh?

Not being funny mate but if someone is a tit then you should be banned and continue to do it then you have to find another forum to do it on. Those rules are fair to be honest.

Plus if your sole purpose to come into an Everton site to wind people up and cause arguments then you are on the wrong site mate. Probably a good few thousand who come on here to talk about Everton because, it's an Everton forum.

One thing I don't get with some people on here to be honest, almost like it's a cool kid thing to get banned like a scally waving an asbo about.

I actually don't have an issue with him. But he is apparently ignored now so not much I can do...

Maybe this is an attempt at German humour and I don't get it?

 

[Ashtonian]

Haha chicoazul still ignored on my end but I'm not on his?

Odd.
