Let's shape future of this group

yes

Hello! I'm not going to say much other than what was mentioned in some previous posts already, yes the community needs more active staff members, a clear set of rules like when should the person get warned / banned etc. But the staff members should be chosen carefully and not just whoever applies for the job. Also, I'm hoping that making this thread, and getting opinions will be a good step to make the elten english community better. Good luck to everyone and best regards.

167 offtopic posts have been deleted.
9 multiaccounts of user gamerkid have been banned, his IP address has been banned as well.

It's a shame the community here isn't mature enough to talk normally about something that everyone could benefit from.

Hey, I think 1 admin and max 3 mods will be enough for this group.
Admins can't write that they did almost nothing because other mods aren't active.
That's admin's problem. I mean generally people don't care which admin is good or bad.
someone should be able to make a quick decision, e.g. whether to ban someone or not.
And you could write how many hours you have to consider any problems on the forum.

hi. Sadly, my other post in this topic was deleted, probably an accident wile deleting the oftopic posts. I think that nuno should really tune in here and say something to all of this. Something in the moderation needs to change, that's for sure. The question is, wat does the administrator think about all of this. And if nuno really does not reply, its probably time for a new administrator,someone like arktic or someone who was on the team. But this can't continue.

Thank you for dealing with this, Pajper. Although I mentioned most of those posts to Nuno, maybe he was either sleeping, or simply not online, which is of course, not his fault, as it was late at night for me, as well as for you all in Poland. All in all thank you. One more proof for, as you said, the community isn't mature enough to get all these problems which we were talking about and most of the participants of the english community are simply unable to control themselves.

keep in mind that was the same person who wantid to be come mod on the elten english forum. that's not a good look at all

why you are posting the same thing in 2 topics? and yeah, agree @tonio2007

@106, to be clear the English community is very much capable of having constructive discussion. Only at max 3 people came in and derailed the topic. I just thought it pertinent to make that point.

Hi,
Let me give here my three pennies about moderation and stuff. Let's pajper ban me, i don't care, but i will use the dirty laundry in the public, because it's needed for this discussion.
Formally, i am active here as a moderator.
Why just informally? Because i don't want to work in such immature and not so serious community.
Nobody pays me for this, and even the organization, Fundacja prowadnica had problems to give me one volunteer certificate when i was the moderator in the polish community.
That's not professional in any way, and the thing that i needed to remind pajper multiple times.
No way, no more!
Moderator's work should be paid, yep, in this community, because you can get mentally ill after this community.
And... english community really never had a moderator active here.

Dude wtf it's not about money.

yeah agree.

Zvonimir, I'd totally agree if you didn't involve money. On the other hand yes, this kind of work drains moderators mentally, to what I can fully relate. What we are dealing with is a very immature community, which can't keep together even if the situation is serious.

Excuse me, but what I see here is some people are blaming the whole community for the doing of like, 4 or 5 people or so. Those aren't the whole community are they?

The problem is not with the entire community. But those 4-5 people are unfortunately loud enough to screw everything up.

Get rid of them then and that's all.

@arcticmoon yes, but the experience told me, that in the future, i don't want doing such work for free.

One side said honestly, so I'll say it too.
I believe that we can start talking about salary for moderators when the programmer starts to receive at least a symbolic salary for the development of this application.
At present, I'm sorry, in my opinion, this is an extremely demanding attitude.
Never did I hear about moderators paid for their work. :(

Agree, if you are mod you do it because you like it. Not because you get payd for, also agree to kaito. I mean if pajper would have money levt then I hope he would invest it better than paying mods for doing in the end nothing...

I agree with Pajper here. Moderators are usually volunteers. In such a small community, it's almost like a joke to talk about salary for moderators. If it was even a discord server with a hundred thousand members, I'd understand. But here, when you need to take care about a few dozens of people, it makes no sense.
