Forum:New Chat Moderators Problem

As you have all seen, our admin, DP added 4 new chat moderators. Claudia, Nada, Tucky and Evan. He gave them the chat mod rights basing himself on the rule "The first 4 people who comment on one of my blogs will become a chat mod". I find it pretty hard-to-take, not only because of his reasoning, also because of the sheer amount of new chat moderators and the method he has chosen them by.

The reason for this forum is the discussion and I suggest democraticaly voting for the rights of the 4 new chat moderators.

By voting I mean that the users that have the possibility to vote and the ones that regularily come to the chat and know how things work there should vote for the addition of the new chat moderators.

I do not agree to all of the new additions and I know that other do not as well so that is why I ask for everyone's opinion on a vote to KEEP or DEMOD the new chat moderators.

I also suggest a new chat moderator, one that deserves it. User:Pandawarrior has even asked DP before for this certain right, but was turned down and I see it unfair for her, being the one worthy to become a chat moderator to not really become one!

We should not leave the decision for the existance of these 4 new chat moderators to only one man. Though he might be an admin, our favorite hater's way is the right way. DEMOCRACY. This wiki is everyones, but the chat is ours, it belongs to the users and you as users who edit here and talk on this chat deserve to decide this!

Do you wish to vote to make the position of the new chat moderators permanent or not?

I will add to the vote people who are suggested by at least 2 users(not including themselves).

Discussion
HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM LPK said himself he wont be visiting the Wikia that much anymroe and Ryu and DP dont come to the chat that often. Plus, we need an odd number for the number of chat mods so things dont turn into a stalemate. I dont think its about who would make a good chat mod but who is on the chat often enough to moderate it. I for one go on the chat 5-6 times a day. im not saying i should be considered but thats just a good example. i think i should be considered as a back up if things dont work out if someone is stripped of their status or something like that. But all in all, i say either Panda or MJ. Troll King Imhungry4444 19:03, February 24, 2012 (UTC) No MJ. Panda or MDM. SeaTerror 19:05, February 24, 2012 (UTC)

I am against some choices,as i think they were quite misjudged.I know a lot of people that spend more time on chat,and are more active than the 4 new MODs that dont have MOD status.I think that Should change.For the time being i will not state who i want to change.If the desicion to change them is made,then i will openly vote.As for the fact that Panda isnt a MOD,i think she deserves it,and should have that star beside her name.

I vote Panda. Because she's awesome. It&#39;s KOROMO! 19:08, February 24, 2012 (UTC)

No offence to the new MODs but if I had knew that Panda requested MOD status in past, I would have made her my First and maybe only nominee. Experience, edits, age, maturity, sexy body and understanding .. SHE GOT IT ALL !!! PANDA !! PANDA !! PANDA !!

Its not like I am saying that the new MODs don't deserve the the MOD status BUT PANDA DESERVES IT MOST !!

 * Are you sayin i dont deserve it cause i dont have a sexy body? i beg to differ Troll King Imhungry4444 19:19, February 24, 2012 (UTC)

I don't like to complain, but the way this was decided seems idiotic. First four people? That is ridiculous. I would love to hear the reasoning behind that. I am not gonna make any recommendations, but this is not the way things are done around here, at least in my experience. 19:16, February 24, 2012 (UTC)

Even though I am a mod now, I agree with this. I always felt that Panda should had become a Mod instead of all of us. She would actually be a great mod, and she is helpful. If possible it would be great if we made her made her a mod, and possibly either keep one or vote for another mod (removing all the new 4 mods, including me). I am actually grateful that I became a mod, since most of the time there are a lot of spammers when I'm on and there is no mod. But if this is what we have to do, I won't argue against it.

I feel thAt This issue was brought up either because people are jealous or mad at the process. I will stand by the mod selections because would the four of us be mods if DP didnt want us to be. When ryu was made a mod novody gave a crap. If you have a problem with me or any of the mods tell me what.-- 20:58, February 24, 2012 (UTC)

Saying this is because of jelousy is stupid. I believe that one's opinion is not enough to decide such a large-scale decision. That's why it should be fair enough that all the people from the chat should have a word in this. And a vote is the best decision to decide who is actually worth of becoming a chat mod. Since Shiv deserves this right way more than you, but she is not one of THE 4 new chat mods. It is not a fair decision and the people of the chat know who deserves to be a chat moderator and who doesn't. You know you aren't worthy right Tucky, I guess that is the reason why you are directly accusing me of jealousy, fear and don't accept this thing happening. I don't see any problem with democracy. It's the fairest way. I'll make sure that everyone that usually comes to the chat will vote. People are not stupid enough Tucky to not know who is good enough and who is not.

I disgress with my proposition for Mod, my sense of justice is mostly decided by my mood and I can only acess the chat while on weekends meaning I would only be fit for such task on weekends and holidays assuming everything thing is alright with my psych. I also agree with Claudia altough not fully! Her position has mod should be maintained while the other 3 are desnecessary. As I suported before Pandawarrior should be a Mod! Her reason are already listed and I think they somewhat aply to Claudia too! Having in mind only some admins and Ryu live in timezones out of Europe and these mentioned before seem to not enter the chat has often has it would be ideal I support a new Mod from the other side of the atlantic as long as a new european mod, Panda and Claudia are fitting for this jobs altough if they do not wish to do them we cannot imply such responsibility on their shoulders! Also my judgement towars Claudia or any other user was in no way afected by feelings I am only speeking in a way to improve the chat, no feelings interfering

k time for some serious talk, I may get offensive but please don't take personally cause this is for wiki's good.

@ IH, Sexy body got nothing to do with this >_>

@ P15, I totally agree with you and I am sure that this is temporary cause if this goes on then there will issues arise that will surpass our understanding. I hope DP thinks this threw one more time cause its not late. If the new mods were given the title threw sheer luck then it can be taken away with same stuff.

@ Tuck, don't use the word "jealous" so easily. All 4 of you were chosen by sheer luck of who comments first. DP didn't judged your edits or your qualifications cause if he did then there are people on this wikia who have far more greater qualifications then many of you. SO please don't go labeling this as jealousy making making the discussion worst.

I think having a vote will be best solution to this.

What MJ mentioned inspired me for an idea.What do you say we have/find say 2 mods for each timezone?And no,i dont mean for EACH one.i mean that we shouldnt have Mods that are only active from xAM to aPM,when many people sleep on xAM and wake up later.(plus life).So here's what i say:We have two Mods from America (North or South,whatever,it counts),two from europe (the max hour difference is from Portugal to Russia,which is 3 hours so ok), two for West Asia(the biggest part of the continent),as well as two for East Asia(covers Australia kinda too,and Philipiness).So i think we have a world scale "clock".Ofc it is logical that those would meet,but hey,just cause they are mods doesnt mean they dont wanna chat right?Sorry if this idea sounds somewhat racistic,it isnt.I think it's more practical this way to solve the timeline problem.Especially more practical than what we had till 2 months ago,with only Rici and LPK as Mods,who both have the same timeline
