APRIL FOOLS -- Moderator Promotions

[Kojinus]

EDIT: April Fools! :D


Greetings!

So as I'm sure some of you have seen, fire219 posted this April fools thread earlier today. I'm pleased to announce that neither Fire or Warsong will be leaving our ranks today (yaaaay! :D).

That said however, we've been reviewing some of our staff recently and decided that it was time to incorporate a new rank: Super Moderator

"But Koji, what does this mean!?" Well, this means that our new Super Moderator will be something like a leader to other Moderators, if an issue arises on the forums that one of our Moderators can't handle on their own, it will be brought to the attention of our Super Moderator. As a Super Moderator, this member of staff will have an unquestioned level of authority allowing them to take whatever action they feel is necessary to deflate a situation, even if this means circumventing the warning point system altogether.

Now, with all of that out of the way I'd like to take this opportunity to introduce our new Super Moderator!

Congratulations WarSong on your promotion!

We here at SMD feel that this change will go a long way to promoting a very positive environment here on the forums.

I am hoping this is another april fool's prank.

If this is a joke then it's an extremely childish way of letting the part of the populace that desires moderation changes know that they can go f*(& themselves with a cactus. I get the satire, but still.

If it's not a joke.....

lol. just lol.

Super moderator isn't there already a super moderator? Community admins.

 

[MossyStone48]

Someone got it! All current mods have privileges equal to super moderators on other forums. We just call it Moderator here.

I still can't believe THIS lead to that rage in chat. I mean, seriously?

Not rage, just composed and polite circle face-palming.

I sincerely doubt chat is capable of doing such things in a civil manner. I dunno, things taste different to different people.

hmmm, good point. Tbh most of the abuse and insulting was done pretty subtly, so it wasn't so bad.

 

[Azurite]

Childish.

Any other joke would have been much funnier and wouldn't have received the reaction this did.

Something tells me you wanted this reaction. Which only proves my point.

 

[EtherEel]

Errrr....

Who's Warsong ???

 

[MossyStone48]

No one.
