    Very good point, but I am not seeking the position. I simply stated I am for moderation.
    Unless my tool was to ban people from chat.
    Would not need an iggy list then.

    Haha, I am just messing with you anyways. I am pretty sure you would make a good Moderator. The riffraff would fear you.

    Player moderators does work if the people chosen are honest, reliable, open minded, and can follow strict directions.

    I have been a player moderator on other games where we were not allowed to play our regular accounts at the same time our "staff" account was logged in. We were given very few tools we could use, i.e. kicking from the server, muting the person for a few hours/days depending on the action, but the major actions like banning or deleting accounts was left to the paid staff. The system worked great for a long time, it would still be working if the company did not close due to lack of donations.

    Something like this could possibly work here, IF the staff could find people to fill the roles. Just a suggestion that I have made a few times already.

    Good point Aliz.
    We have the /report feature that works well if you use it right.
    Too many people want to misuse it and that must make it hard on whomever has to sift through them all.
    In all honesty, I would NOT want to try and moderate the chat. Too many dysfunctional people with axes to grind.
    It would be a full time job against a never ending tide of miscreants.
    In my opinion, it would be too much work and NO play.
    My enjoyment comes from playing the game, not from trying to herd cats. :P

    yup, I made those same points earlier as well Alliz, I am a mod at another site, and you cannot have player account and "mod" account logged in at the same time. The basic tools are 5 minute gag, half hour gag, 24 hours gag, and boot from server/chat area. Basically we use them in that exact order with warnings each time. We also have a special chat logger tool and reporting tool that is used in conjuction with those gag/boot tools. Depending on what "level" mod you are you also get a "block" from chat and a "block" from server option to use untill the reports can be looked at and a decision is made by the upper level admins. There is also a "soft boot" option where can kick player from server for 5 minutes or half an hour, as opposed to 24 hours or blocking them. Also, to reiterate, you MUST have the CORRECT people for this position or it will only damage the site more then help it.
    Happy Gaming Everyone !
