A lot of people want this info... so i am going to give it to you... the elite members...
HERE is what GK thinks the moderator process is...
1. Roll it up has got to choose you and then push some buttons on the computer and change your POWERS.
2. If one of the current moderators does not think you should be a mod.. he or she could really get in RIU's ear and things become very unlikely that YOU would get modded
3. I (GK) will do my best not to let anybody else be a moderator who does not try and follow these rules...
A- as a moderator you are not to get offended by anything on the site. If you do get offended.. you need to step away from the keyboard and comeback to the issue when you are not offended. or ask another mod to handle it.. A person that is offended is reactionary.. reactionary people are DRONES... we have enough drones in this world..
B- your main goal is to make others feel comfortable on the site...
If somebody tells you to go fuck yourself, you job is not to bash them back your job is to ASK THEM... how YOU can make there stay at RIU better.. clearly "you" have offended them and your first obligation is to them to make them feel at home... this doesn't mean you grab your ankles... but you don't attack the members personally.... you can attack their points of view and stay within context... but attacking them, even when they attack you is not our job... it makes all the mods look bad...
c- we are not here to be right, to prove others wrong, to be the best or to put others down. we are here to help ..assist.. motivate... encourage
INTIMIDATING the members is LAME.. and the members will not tolerate that shit..
d- if something does offend or does break the rules and there is no way around it.. and you have to make the call.. DON'T make a scene.. don't fight.. just BAN...
EXAMPLE -
pedophile in the chat room - BAN
CHILD PORN LINK - BAN
selling weed - BAN
e- and finally... my biggest issue.. YOU are never to attack or be rude to a fellow mod on the site.. except in the staff only section... WE never air our dirty laundry...
WELL, BOYS AND GIRLS.. THERE YOU HAVE IT.... THIS COULD ALL BE TOTALLY WRONG... BUT THIS IS HOW I SEE IT.. and I have not been wrong since the 80's
ILOVEYOU
