I have noticed that out of the 11 mods of this game, only 3 appear to show any kind of activity: me (mostly, cause I don't really give a chance for others to verify runs), Omega, and Pete.
This makes me think that 8 out of the 11 mods are redundant in the list. This huge bloating of moderators can be an issue, because:
- power is given to people who don't actually need it
- it indicates that there is no condition of being unmodded
- it indicates that there is no system in place to regulate this issue, even though it's fairly important
- the mod list is huge, it looks bad and confusing for new people because almost every mod is pretty much dead when it comes to running this game
Having less mods for the game and some kinda simple system to add/remove mods would be good, because:
- it would make it possible to add new runners sooner and more easily to the modlist
- it would make it easier to remove inactive mods faster
- only active runners would have mod power, getting mod could be an incentive to be a better runner / more active in the community
The proposed solution I have right now is that me, Omega and Pete remain mod, Pete remaining super mod. Then, I set up a forum thread here that handles moderation, and when we need to remove/add mods, we can discuss it in that thread.
The system I have in mind is such:
- 3 mods in total:
- 1 super mod
- 2 regular mods
The super mod need to be absolutely trustworthy, and the other two mods also need to be established members that know the game inside out, and won't do retarded shit and can use their brains. Of course a decent level of activity is required from all three mods.
I think the activity of the mods doesn't need much regulation, just the usual "pay attention to the community's needs and get shit done".
So if you have feedback about this, post it here. If people like the idea, we can develop it further and implement it at some point (this weekend).
Yeah that's the current plan, but at this point I'm pretty sure that we will need to wait at least 43 years before everything gets done, so now it's time to wait.
I will try to figure out something to speed up this process soon, because it's already annoying me that such trivial matter takes so long to sort out, just because it's in the hands of people who fail to give a fuck.
I got pac to remove oasiz/ligh/shanz from VC within a few minutes, so you're doing something wrong.
And yeah, I guess I haven't been doing all that much. The past however any months have had me too busy with edumacation to care about going on speedrun.com. However, I would be active right now if my internet situation let me watch videos.
If you still want to unmod me then it's whatever though.
If you wanna mod, then it's all good, i just wanna get the dead ones removed. I messaged Pac on discord about it, but we don't know each other so that's probably why it might take longer for him to do something about it. If you have an idea as to how i can reach him faster, i'd appreciate that.
