I think your misinterpreting me. Rather without knowledge of the people here in the OT section, their post can easily be taken the wrong way and then we have a riot on our hands. Ruyuk and Bickyz are the only new mods with experience with the posters here, and thats why they are the only ones that would fit in well amongst us. Really, I am not dis-ing (misspelled I know) the new mods, I'm just saying that the issues here run deeper then you think at first glance.

yeah...
Even swan made a spelling mistake in an email response to me! (better than many people though)
Every member is banned for a reason and that cannot be debated. If you wish to appeal a ban of a certain member please contact us Moderators.Quote:

Farewell Rov, we hardly knew Ye.
Well sort of. Its a bit more then that, and without a good understand of all the members that hang out in the OT section, even with a briefing, they won't be prepared really. Ultimately, in my opinion over time they could be intergrated within this section, but they should only observe our ways at first.Quote:

Thats the issues that occur here in the OT section need to be handled in a careful way, or else Evony risk losing many of its most helpful players. Demonhero for example although sometimes making post that teased some members (IN A FUN WAY) was/is a very helpful member of the forums, and in less then a day, it was decided that he should be banned. Although that was rectified, it brought up some really serious events that now threaten all of us here.
We have responsibilities and we ban people in situations which get out of hand, which, mostly are caused by them. Please refer to the member who got banned in PM so I may look more into this.Quote:

I wish you luck, and hope you get in. It would be helpful to have an extra active mod here in the OTD and S&R sections (no offense, foxy! You're great!)
Also, do you consider the maturity level of mods? one mod that recently quit was a little girl. How do you expect someone like that to be an effective mod when they have to deal with people older, more educated, and more experienced in life.
Can we know what you have as qualifications for your mods? I certainly think age should be an issue. Or is this something that is not allowed to be discussed?
