What do moderators do???

Maybe the comunity has been very rude with you guys, some including me dont really know whats your role.

If you guys can explain us maybe all the rage threads and QQ threads will calm down.

Hope you can take your time to answer this simple question, cause all I see u guys do is close post, and comment unrespectful things sometimes.

I understand maybe its not in your hands to solve the hacking problem, but people will keep posting about hacks since you guys never give us a logical answer. Some of us feel insulted when you guys just keep answering "We are working on it" or " we are getting rid of hacks"....

Sometimes posters get rude I know, but you were giving a responsability and you should be a role model, if you get insulted you cant answer in the same way, and plz dont fool around with us and disrespect us saying your solving the hack issues when we all see more and more hacks every day.

  • their job is to look good in public. pretty much just manage the forums... and pretty sure they get priority over banning. like if they think someone is cheating, the replay will be viewed prior to any others.<--not quite sure about this though

    Mod: moderate forum

    /thread
  • We deal with the forums and help out the community and GMs when they need it. We have no input on the game outside of suggestions.

    If you have a complaint against any mods conduct feel free to PM it to [GM]Saidin.

    The thing is, all can can say is that it's being worked on because that's all we know.


    Edit: Sometimes we eat pie.
  • They also eat pie.

    Thats only me... the rest eat cake... even if it is a lie...


    But yeah like others have said, we keep the forums locked down and clean as best as we can. We also have direct contact with GM's for more serious matters and that in itself is rather helpful.
    We are also supposed to look for suspicious activity ingame (which is kinda a given as thats what you lot do too :P) and answer questions etc etc... but no ingame power.. just more of a staff presence there

  • Are you calling Ddot, the mod, stupid?

  • MODs run around in an office half naked listening to 80's music.

    I have confirmed this with my spy network.

    No one ever suspects the weird banana thing..
  • So you're saying Ddot is too stupid to realize you're calling him stupid?

    Banned for life. jajaja

  • For a tip. Never start a fight with a MOD. You will never win. :P

  • You know...arguing with a mod is dumb, and you wont win. EVAR. They have purty gud reasons. They wont ban you just because.


    So you should stop. You wont win. You wont win cause they're mods. You wont win because 103% of the time they're correct.
  • NO!!!

  • I'm fresh out of bubblegum.

    Oh sh-
    Time to kick even more ass?
  • Sticky this as an example of explaining how and what mods do. Great examples and explanations given here, on top of dealing with a trolling user.

  • If a mod sees wrong in you, he will give out discipline respectively.

    If you did something wrong, but so did the other party, don't expect any "special treatment".
  • Sigh, time to give my two cents I suppose. I honestly don't see the Moderators doing ANYTHING wrong. Call me a brown-noser or whatever terms you use for that. They do their job according to the rules set forth by the parenting companies. That is what governs their actions. It's your fault you did not correctly read the rules and Terms of Use on these forums. When you signed up for an account on these forums, YOU agreed to THEIR rules, not the other way around.

    Excerpts from the Terms of Use:
    This agreement ("Agreement") constitutes a binding contract between you and G4BOX Inc. and governs your use of www.z8games.com (the "Service"). By registering as a member and accepting this Agreement, you represent that: (i) you have read and understood this Agreement and agree to be bound by its terms
    You are in their world. You go by their rules. Simple as that.
    Z8Games does not monitor all submissions to the site, but reserves the right to do so and to remove or edit anything that is in violation of these terms of use or other policies of Z8Games.
    Moderators can delete/close anything they deem in violation of these Terms of Use. They have the RIGHT to do so and calling them out for "all they do is close posts" is actually right in their job description. They close posts that are unnecessary, such as "Hack" threads. Nothing a PM can't take care of just as easily.
    [FONT=&quot]Information Provided by You[/FONT]
    If you submit information to our site, you agree not to (1) post or transmit anything that is defamatory, libelous, abusive, unlawful, obscene, threatening, fraudulent, ****ographic or harmful, or that could encourage criminal or unethical behavior; (2) post or transmit pyramid schemes, chain letters, or conduct gambling; (3) post or transmit anything that violates the copyright or intellectual property rights of any person or entity;
    I am pretty sure posting ANYTHING pertaining to hacks, hack sites, etc. falls under content that violates the copyright and intellectual property rights of the entity known as SmileGate, which created this game.
    [FONT=&quot]Termination of Usage[/FONT]
    Z8Games may terminate or suspend your access to all or parts of the Service, without notice, for any conduct that Z8Games in its sole discretion, believes is in violation of this Agreement or applicable law, or is detrimental to the interests of another user or any third party. In such case, Z8Games shall have no liability to you.
    If they feel like suspending your account, I believe it states right there that they can, without notice and with what they believe to be in violation of said agreements.
    [FONT=&quot]Entire Agreement[/FONT]
    This Agreement is the complete and entire agreement between the parties and supersedes any prior agreement whether written or oral.
    tl;dr - You signed up for an account on their website. You indefinitely agreed to THEIR terms when you signed up for that account. If you didn't take the time to properly familiarize yourself with what you could and could not do, that's not their fault now is it? :cool:
  • Do you have a pretty good idea what they do now?

  • Well I hope this thread clams people down including my self.... lets stop blaming the mods for things they dont control.....

    Maybe u guys should make a sticky post or something so people always have in mind what mods do???

    I understand this post is not worth a sticky... cause my english sucks... sorry about that.

    REMEMBER GUYS ARE WAR IS AGAINST THE HACKS NOT THE MODS!!! IF WE STOP FIGHTING, TROLLING. QQING, RAGING WE CAN UNITE AND HAVE A BETTER GAME

    ITS MY HUMBLE OPINION
  • Most of what I am about to say has already been said, but I suppose
    that's okay.

    Moderators generally keep the Forums clean as best as possible. For
    an example, they move threads to their belonging sections, they
    infract users who break rules, and try to calm down situations that
    are out of hand. Moderators have no control (whatsoever) over
    the game, that is the [GM]'s job.

    So now that you know that Moderators are mature roll models,
    see if you can act like one! Help users, and calm down situations with
    answers.
