Oh, right, support. And congratulations to CypriotMerkz for new Forum Administrator! Pls start by changing my name to RawrImaEatPoop.
Could you please at least give me 3 good reasons why I should promote a forum administrator? This doesn't mean I'll go ahead and promote one but I will keep it in mind if the reasons are valid. The reason I promoted Zambiana to Forum Administrator on Skyblock forums was because everyone wanted a forum name change. Now that I have added an addon on both forums we don't really need a forum administrator and I can't think of any other reasons why we need one.
I only have one reason. Birthdays and other personal info change. This including profile pictures and stuff.
^^ - Plus I'm sure your name has to be at least 8 or something characters long when using the name changer (unless that's only on skyblock) so shorter name change requests can be done - Can do name or profile picture changes if people have inappropriate names or avatars - Requested perm bans can be done since they can be unbanned or old requested ones can be unbanned faster - Hidden Content: You must reply before you can see the hidden data contained here.
What a forum admin can do: - Change errors in birthdays and names -Unban anyone who appeals -Be like your assistant, Take care of things that you can't, when your busy etc. -He can help in the help section -Help and read customer support emails./ [email protected] -Be like the head mod. Watch and help the mod team and shape it. -Change change profile pics if they are inappropriate. What some people that I know can do if they were a forum admin: Hidden Content: You must reply before you can see the hidden data contained here. So when you think about it, there's a lot that Forum Admins can do.
Yes it is a bit hard to moderate forums 100% while moderating in game. Normal mods might miss some stuff.
A forum admin with limited admin panel access could: Edit basic user information(ie: birth dates/name errors). Match ip's for suspected ban evading accounts and deal with those accounts accordingly. Edit foul profile pictures and signatures. Unban accepted forum ban appeals. Have access to the spam cleaner for spambot accounts. Handle/clean the messy forums as they would have no in game perms and therefore more time. Promote me bb. <3 I work for free, you love me, and I might even send you one of those margarita pizzas I know you love. :PP
That's why there needs to be a forum moderator who effectively doesn't play minecraft and can just live on the forums
