I administrate a forum |

I was curious what everyone had to say about this. |

I administrate a forum |
|
I think moderation should be impartial, based on recognised firm set of rules. |
|
I always thought moderation should be an anonymous thing, that seems like it would keep the process more impartial. |
|
Great question, but i dont think there should be any one particular type of moderator. I personally think it should differ between each. |
|
I've been the Administrator of two forums. One of them I recently created. Maybe some of you have heard? |

Surrender your flesh. We demand it.
Well, I'm not a full moderator, but we Dream Guides do have some level of moderation. We have a set of rules to follow, but depending on each of our personalities, we will be more strict with one over the other. In my case, I don't care much if someone has an alt account in chat, as long as they are being friendly and nice. When it comes down to it, all I care about is people being nice and caring towards others at DV. If your not, then I'll start. But being a low level moderator, I have this luxury. |

I don't think anyone should have to break the rules to be themself and post how they feel. The only time a moderator really needs to be impartial is when a rule is broken. As long as the rules are clearly defined and adhered to, moderators should be able to post as they please. |

My main point, really, is if you have to vote for a person to be moderator - what personality are you really looking for? |

In some respects yes. But I personally think that it is vital for a staff member to care for the community they are involved in administrating. Don't you? |

Do admins have any powers Mods don't. |
|
Yes. These include making direct changes to user accounts and forums, as well as many others. |

Well since the beginning of time ManOfSteel was handpicked by the greatest minds and thus the ultimate form of moderation began... Personality Unchanged + Great Person + Etc. + Etc. + Etc. Setting the standard for generations to come. |

You need to know when to let some trolls live, and let some trolls die. Also, redirect the noobs' posts to the dump, and try not to close every thread you find. |
