Oh Oober is definitely around.
Why does this post seem sinister....
Oh Oober is definitely around.
Are you Team Lead Moderator or is the Mod organization more flat? Trying to get a picture on the hierarchy
Seems like the Bears moderator group is in the process of defining roles. Oober has barely been around, Jamais has stated he doesn't believe in being heavy-handed, FT is the most vocal in addressing community inquiries. Makes for an interesting committee if they act independently with such differences in approach....
Just to touch on a few things:
-Village of the banned will not be coming back nor will a corrective action thread. That's silly.
-Rush explained the Grimson ban in here.
I may be the most forward facing/active(?) but we talk through most everything. If someone is banned/warned etc we are all in the loop as to the details of it. We are working in concert. It's not three different styles.
It's not coming back.1. I think bringing back VOTB (the thread not the forum) would be a wise idea.
In this thread. Post #35B. Where did @Rush provide an explanation?
Majority but pretty much everything we've done as a new staff has been unanimous. We are all on the same page and wave length.III) Are staff votes majority rule or must they be unanimous?
FWIW, that statement was more for the community to get clarification. If you guys need a "mod/community relations" guy, i'm your guy.
It's not coming back.
Honestly think that is a mistake. Transparency needs to be there. JMHO
I think you would make an excellent mod/community relations guy...I vote yes to this
Thanks. There are a lot of posters that don't even know who "oober" is and I could help with that.

I will back this up because even if we brought back the VOTB thread...98% of the posters would not check it and just ask one of us in a random thread...so why bother with the extra work.It's not coming back. If you have a question, PM a mod. Or ask me randomly like you are here.

I think he is an Urblock alt and just suckered Rush into getting his old job back.I still think "oober" is a Novak alt

The current process we are trying also does not really ban the poster anyhow. You want to know why Grimson is not posting in the Bear forum...go to The Bar forum and ask him yourself.
wtf is village of the banned?

When VOTB was first put into place it was nice because we were seeing a lot of veteran posters getting bans for various lengths of time...so it was cool to be able to hop in that thread to see what had happened. Not calling out the old moderators but it was almost necessary as sometimes it did not seem like there was any rhyme or reason to the bannings. With this new group (at least the two I know in the Bears Forum) it feels more like you have to be over the top to get a ban and they are more willing to discuss in an open setting about it than brush off why the ban was put into place.
