For the very few concerned, worried people. Those who thinks someone might not like them, might not be fair, might have been paid off (that one is a joke).

It's simple. There is a system where if you have any doubt about your impartiality for any reason, don't know what decision is fair, just can't quite figure out what to do because you are on the fence but there are multiple complaints that keep popping up, you just flag the complaint as under review...and an Admin makes the decision. It's used all the time. 

A few weeks ago there were about 14 things from the corona virus thread marked "under review".

Sometimes the decisions have to wait a few days until an Admin is available. I don't know who the Admins really are, but I highly doubt from their conversations that they are boarders, and they do change from time to time. So their decisions really are impartial.

That is in addition to the reviews by Admins of the volunteer's decisions.

I happen to like most people, but I'm not perfect, there was a person I might find a tad annoying. I don't WANT to make a decision if I'm concerned about being impartial and I doubt that anyone else does. I don't get paid for the decisions, when I got paid to make decisions, I made them because I had to. I don't HAVE to make these, an  Admin can.

This isn't a perk position, there are no perks, I personally could do without the badge thingy. It's just something we do to help the forum run smoothly.

The first time I was given mod powers, there was a shill posting really awful porn, stuff I've never dreamed would be posted anywhere.  I was up for a lot of hours getting rid of it. That kind of stuff is why I agreed to help out.  

I hope that there are a few less conspiracy posts here...or trying to trick people posts.

Have a great Festivus.

 

Plus Mod1 is not a board member and pretty much hands out all the strikes.  No conspiracy.  I believe you.  this is not a sarcastic post-dont know how to better word it.

that is honor and self respect and self dignity. i certainly know you have these qualities, but that does not automatically transfer to all persons that are paid moderators or volunteer member moderators.

I agree with your sentiment, but you need to attribute it to the moderator who said it, and not to me.

Actually I am pretty sure he wandered on to the set of Singled out during one of the comic conventions he was cosplaying in..

Explain Kav please.

The member mods have the higher numbers eg sharon is Mod11.
All or most of my strikes, and those reported by others, were delivered by Mod1.
