More Active Staff

[Dylan2]

Hey friends, I'm making this suggestion as I've been waiting for ages to get my "Support ticket answered and resource accepted" accepted/answered. I think MCM should start looking into hiring more staff to accommodate the overflow of users. Please leave a comment to say if you agree or disagree.

Good Points:

Spoiler: Avsterbone Said

Here is what we need to do in order to fix the staff team up.

Demote the following users:

Mick - He is the owner of slabcraft and only has a chat mod rank cause he was the ex-owner so we need to get rid of him as he doesn't do anything.

Jack - I never see him or interact with the community in any way. He just sits there with his mod rank.

Errota - He is to busy with his hosting company and doesn't care about MCM. Like if you go to his profile every recent post is about his MC Hosting company. Advertisers don't equal moderators.

M6Gaming - He is a great scam resolver, but a bad mod. I think he should just stick to scam reports and loose the mod rank.

Promote the following users:

morganjp - He definitely deserves mod and is super active. He's got a great personality and very few people dislike him.

Deep - He deserves chat mod and will work his way to mod.


Make these changes and everyone is happy except for those who get demoted.

Time to go full out essay mode =

There are two sides to this and two types of valid reasons that support either of the outcomes of this suggestion. Let's begin with the "yes, I support more staff needing to be added." Okay, we may need more staff, but not for all positions. M6Gaming is doing extremely well as a scam resolver, but I don't think he exactly needs both the roles of SR and Mod. He does create a lot of time for both, so we could let it be for now. Then, we have Errota. I have seen little to no activity from Errota for a long time now and think that it is definitely necessary that MCM enforces that their staff stay active. This may also just be me, but yeah. The chat moderators do quite the job of keeping both the chat and the forum generally great - but I don't see a lot of them, unfortunately. We don't need that many staff. We need probably two more staff members. One resource moderator and one moderator. We might want to "lose" a moderator, and promote someone else in their stead as well.

Now, the against side. We have a great staff team who "arguably" do their jobs. Especially M6, . I have to say, I've seen many of our staff doing their job. A lot more then the previous staff teams. It seems as if they work together rather smoothly. Should there really be change when it isn't necessary? Remember the drama that resulted from that? Gladly, BeBosny is our new owner and he changed stuff back (all except the name ) and will definitely make the right decision on this suggestion.

I hate to break it to ya, the "more staff" case seems a bit stronger for me... Let us see what other people have to say...

Thanks for your time

.....Annnnnnnnnd what about your opinion on Errota?

That all being said, I have noticed some lack of activity that I, myself, am concerned with. I won't name any names or anything, but this would be a time where I think some tough decisions need to be made by certain individuals.

 

[morganjp]

Eh?
Why did hiring more staff turn into who to demote.

You guys really shouldn't comment on the staff team with absolutely no context on things they do whatsoever.

 

[Ivain]

Guys, about the inactive staff. As Jack just proved, not all staff members are constantly active in the visible forums. Considering the amount of rep

Avsterbone said he never saw you interact with the community, seems that you're insecure and needed to prove yourself.

What exactly is your point here? Avsterbone's point was that jack never interacted with the community and therefore does not do much (implied but not stated)
Jack countered that by proving he IS active.

I feel like you're just looking for an excuse to shit on the mods..

Support ticket answered

Your support ticket is related to payments. The only one capable of handling these is myself. You opened a support request on Friday.

I had a very busy week however, the first response by myself was made after the 1st day. Your issue got resolved on Sunday. If you think this is long, try contacting steam support only to be greeted by a automated reply after 3 weeks.

Let's also not mention, your support request was about a gifted name color. A name color? It's not a urgent request and will make actually 0 difference if dealt with now or in 1 extra day.

resource accepted

Myiume is inactive for 1 weekend and you all start complaining. Other websites take more than a week to get something approved.

Good Points

How are these even good points? You claim how slow support requests are (because it had to be handled by me) even though they used to take MUCH longer a while back. Improvement? I think so.

My actual point:
All their points seem to be completely unrelated to your points. You say how resources and support requests take a while and the rest is just ranting about how bad they claim the staff team is.

Unfortunately it's very difficult to just replace staff members. Every time we get a new staff member, they will make some sort of mistake eventually. Does it mean he instantly must be demoted? No, definitely not. Mistakes are there to learn from.

Most negative replies in this thread are just butthurt people who received a warning from a certain mod which they disagree with. Grow up kids.

1) Yey, I am not one of the butthurt kids who received a warning.
2) I wasn't claiming how bad the staff team is, if you decide to read my post.

 

[Jack]

Couldn't disagree more. Everyone on the demotion list (with the exception of M6) I have never received a warning from. They just are simply bad staff.

Well it seems the points you made originally aren't valid since I've already disproven your argument that I'm inactive.

 

[Ajdin]

You should clear up as to why they're bad staff. None of your points are actually valid in my eyes, I'll address every single one.

He is the owner of slabcraft

Not sure why that's worth stating? I own a company which makes more revenue than his blockgame server, does that mean I can't be owner?

we need to get rid of him as he doesn't do anything.

He's a chatmod, he honestly can't do much. The point of being a chatmod is acting when you see someone breaking the rules within shoutbox.

I never see him or interact with the community in any way. He just sits there with his mod rank

Jack addressed this delusional thought just fine.

He is to busy with his hosting company and doesn't care about MCM. Like if you go to his profile every recent post is about his MC Hosting company. Advertisers don't equal moderators.

Again, just because he owns a big project or company, he should not be a moderator? Or yeah, you're just judging him because he's not actively posting accross the board.
I honestly think you're just jealous of Mick and Errota because that's what it seems like.
Does Errota need to pick up on activity? Imo, yes. I'm just giving myself some time to settle in and learn my staff members a bit before I start changing the team around.

He is a great scam resolver, but a bad mod. I think he should just stick to scam reports and loose the mod rank.

Nothing to backup your claim with? You should state reasons as to why people should be demoted. It's obvious that you 2 have something going on and that you're not saying this just because of his moderator actions.

Make these changes and everyone is happy except for those who get demoted.

Are you going to speak for the entire community?

 

[Ivain]

Yes I am actually, if you check my posts on this thread you'll notice the only dislikes are from staff I want gone . Seems like I'm not the only one on this page.

Just because the overlarge majority of the community can't be bothered with your post does not mean you represent the entire hundreds of active members, or thousands of semi-active ones.

 

[Ivain]

That's just like saying, "just because the majority of people voted for Trump doesn't mean that's what all of the people who didn't vote want." If people want their voice heard they have to rate & post. Bystanders are just along for the ride.

Its still extremely arrogant to say you represent the community. You represent maybe a handful of anti-staff members that will seize any chance to rebel against authority.

Besides, just because people do not voice their opinions does not mean you represent them as well. you represent the loudest faction that makes waves wherever they can.
I represent myself and nobody else. It does not give your voice more weight, or mine less.
I have not rated disagree yet because I do not disagree with the core notion, that some staff members could do with being more active. It's the details of this suggestion added in by you and several others that I disagree with, however.[DOUBLEPOST=1462278623][/DOUBLEPOST]oh, and lets not forget. you claim to represent the community, yet a large amount of the posts in here have been in contradiction with your claims. They, like me, do not throw disagree ratings at the original post because they agree with the sentiment on it, to some extent. yet your own posts definitely aren't lacking in disagrees, nor in counter-arguments by non-staff members of the community.

But its way more convenient to forget to mention those.

In these suggestions I usually support neither case being argued, but provide valid proof that both are legitimate arguments.

I was a little pissed off when BeBosny called my opinion "ranting about how bad the staff team is" when I was providing valid claims for both the positive and negative arguments on this thread, whichever they may be. I believe that there really doesn't need to be more staff and that I've seen them active a lot, but also I believe that there should be a few more staff members. Yes, I realize my inconsistent attitude towards this problem is a bit unusual, but I'd rather not take sides. If you take the time to read my post, you'll see that I wasn't ranting about how bad the team was.

avsterbone, on the other hand, has very strong feelings towards many of the staff members in this community. While he is really funny, his "community-advocate" attitude isn't always working out.

I wasn't specifically aiming at you. Please read my reply again.

You were aiming at the two people that[Censored]said had good points: "avsterbone" and myself. I know you may have meant it towards Avster more so, but that clarification needs to be there.
