Staff

[Ilxsiion]

So basically imo there should a lot of changes to how staff works.
Firstly there should be 'Middleman' Staff rank which should be specially picked by Mick staff members who are trustworthy and would NOT scam and are extremely reputable who are official Middlemen who mm for free or for a small percentage of the total cost. This would reduce scamming and people would know where to go if hey need a middleman.

Secondly there is a very small quantity of staff members, there is like 15k users, a lot of which are still active, how can 1 scam report staff and 2 moderators manage such a large quantity of people quickly and efficiently? Imo over the next 1-2 weeks Mick should find and pick another 1 scam report staff member and pick another 5 moderators, then the forums will be managed well and everything will progress quicker.
So yeah, comment your opinions bellow . If you want to say 'no' then tell why preferably. Thanks

1: There is high reputable players already doing middleman like Resilience and thebaum64 who are both trusted so there is no need to waste time and money on getting a staff member to do just middleman.

2: They don't really need any more staff members because most people in the community are chill and dont break the rules.

In the case of scam reports, Anthony handles them amazingly. There could be another to lessen the work on Anthony's mind, but it really isn't necessary.

For moderators, two mods recently left us, Jack and Myiume. There has been a recent promotion of thebaum, leaving -1 moderators. One more moderator, 2-3 at most, can be hired, we have been going great with that amount.

 

[Renovix]

Did Myiume leave or get fired for the scam incident?

Those were both "unrelated" in his words, he resigned due to his being inactive. He made a post about his resignation, as well as there is a comment on his profile post.

Anthony is good at reports but it takes ages for them to be handled and for your post to be allowed by a moderator on them. The current mods are good but it isn't about quality in this case, it's about efficiency, the reports take a while, same with threads being moderators by mods, it always takes a while for a lot of threads to be dealt with mainly due to the fact even though the mods are good, as expected, they have a life so they can't moderate 24/7 leading to moderation arriving to the thread quite late often.

for the scam reports, Anthony does fine. If he feels like hes pressured to do so, or he believes he cant keep up, I'm sure he will let mick know.
as with the moderators, I rarely see them moderate, not because they aren't, but because not many rule breakings go on.
admittedly there are some, but not a huge amount like other forums.

 

[Ilxsiion]

A noter five moderators? What for? Just show me one thread that needed staff assistance and didn't get it within 24 hours. And for the scam reports, one member of staff is fine. Anthony does a good job alone, he gets all the reports done writhing 24 hours too. There's no need for more staff.

24 hours is lots of time, it should be half a day tops, by 24h the thread probably has already spireled out to control.

There is a fair amount of flame threads.
Also resilience is trustworthy to me cos ik him but to people who don't know him, probably not cos he himself even posted that he has never conducted a money transfer in his time on mcm. Thebaum is a mod who is also a mm but he isn't here all day and he certainly won't be able to manage the amount of requests he will receive for him to MM as he would be the sole mod that is also a MM leading to him being flooded with requests.

thebaum64 cannot MiddleMan, because he is staff now.
I don't personally know Resilience so I would be hesitant MiddleManning with him, I feel five new mods is a bit excessive, but perhaps one or two more on top of the recent promotion of baum. I think Anthony handles Scam Reports fine, but if he feels he could use the help, I see no harm done.

I mm for free + I have over 1k rep, and before anyone says shit poster 80% of my ratings are agrees and likes. 5 staff is way too much as mick would have too many people to watch and make sure they aren't misusing their powers. Official middlemans aren't really needed because there's already 3 middlemen in the section that are trusted enough to not risk scamming.

Rep isn't ratings. Rep is gained by doing deals successfully, not posting. Anthony needs some help tbh. 5 staff isn't hard to watch over, servers are harder to watch staff over yet they got loads of staff. Baum now can't mm, jurhed is like the one mm that is really trusted and still does it I think. Ily tho bb

I've done deals with several high tiered people including skill speed babe etc, I don't see your point about me not being trusted.

Didn't you write on Kenny's thread you had $0 transferred in transactions on this market? I trust you but I mean some new members may be mislead by that and usually the new members are the ones who use MMs cx.

Staff can not middleman as it just creates more imposers, it makes it worse, thus, I do not middleman anymore.

imo There's no need for lots of staff, and Mick has already said this. Basically, we all are the staff. If you report rulebreakers, staff can go through say, 50ish reports a day (and assuming 1 more staff member is chosen, which I think will be the case) that's 150 reports covered a day and over 1,000 a week. That's plenty enough and Anthony R covers scam reports fine, though it would be nice to have an NA and EU member so we don't have to wait on scam reports.
