    I'll stand by what I say.
    The best mods are the worst players.

    Think I'm wrong? Funny. You wanna know why? The bad players see the holes in the server. They know how to use and abuse the glitches in the servers. They're always on the look out for new ways to take over. They know the rules and follow them enough to not get banned. They know the punishments so they don't get banned.

    The ones who deserve mod? They're too focused on looking good. They don't see the way the wrong players do.

    But no one listens to me on who the good and bad mods will be ;P

    I think I'm like 90% right on my guesses over the years.

    It's why I've quit this server two times and I won't be coming back - it's an unorganized mess of staff that aren't ready to do their job right, and the rules are just about as mediocre as some of them.

    Ok Lets go.
    A repeat offender does not get away with it you just don't know we have discussions on suitable punishments for repeat offenders based on factors such as their history. You do not know that while you may be punished first and seemingly the other person hasn't, it is because we are working to a resolution. But thats fine, keep being annoyed while we do our job.

    Too difficult since different situations and people call for different punishments. That relies on mods own judgement and in turn that means punishments differ. This idea will only allow players to get away with more because mods cannot stray from the expectations or face reports. So no.

    Full mods can close reports that lack evidence provided the report is not on themselves or if requested by a player, or have permission to do so. Supermods can handle all staff reports unless a major rule has been broken. It is an unwritten practice to keep order when dealing with situations.

    And now here is where you go from concerned to just rude. All moderators are helpful at least in some way otherwise they would have been demoted by now. We have the right to afk as much as anyone else. It is when mods afk to look active which is an issue but otherwise we help each other out and make sure no mod is afk for too long. It is rude to assume staff pretend to afk just to ignore players. That is not the case. Personally I go on and am swarmed with messages for a good 5-10 min so honestly that is just an insulting suggestion.

    That question needs to be re-worded. Some people dont want to be identified by their evidence and that is fine. Most people say yes anyway.

    If you get an alert when your report is rejected it is probably from me. Otherwise it is irrelevant who deals with those reports and you do not need to know unless you want to report the staff or open a formal report. In that case you message a trusted staff who will take you through it.

    In other-words expectations of staff will come from the admin and players will need to realise it is their actions that cause mods issues and not the other way around.

    I hate to say it. But mods, as a whole, few exceptions, are too ignorant to accept the flaws and try to change. We'll never be listened to because our opinions don't matter.

    Ok, let me tell you something most people don't see; Human Error. No one's perfect, yet not much see that. Just remember that Cyp chose these people for a reason and he has faith in them. Mods try their best to make this community a great one and wants it to last. You should just be glad that you have a marvelous server to play on, where you can chat and have fun with others.

    Let's get started shall we?

    Firstly, this has been mentioned before. Cyp chooses his moderators wisely. If Cyp wasn't good at what he was doing the server would not receive this much support. He has faith in the moderators he promotes. He has a lot of experience with promotions over the years so his judgements are on point. A person who has been promoting players over many years is likely to have higher judgemental skills rather than someone who joins the server & simply doesn't like something. Cyp knows what he's doing, he has the experience & time to do what's right in every situation.

    Secondly, something about moderators being afk? Are you actually serious or is this a joke? Moderators are players just like you & have their rights to do so. If a person is afk for 1 hour no one cares & then a moderator is afk for 20 mins everyone makes a fuss about it. They have the right to do so, just as everyone else does & secondly they are experienced moderators that have a reason behind staying afk. Take it from the point of view of a moderator. The moderator joins & is immediately flooded with spam messages. Well of course the moderator will choose to be afk.

    Being afk doesn't necessarily mean the player is afk. Yes it is a term refered to as "away from keyboard", however how can you know that the person isn't actually doing something else on the server? 90% of moderators work behind the scenes, you just have no clue what work their doing. Complaining about moderators not kicking or muting advertisements of players? They are kicking people that advertise behind the scenes, you just don't know about it. There is a tremendous amount of work done to stop advertisements or better said the flood of spam in the chat. The players advertises which means that the message is already send & nothing can be done to prevent the spam to flow in. However moderators do punish & enforce the rules dramatically & deserve respect for what they're doing.

    No one is perfect, however moderators are doing their best job to keep your Skyblock experience as pleasant as possible.

    ~Tom :)
