Thank you smile By the way, what forums do you regulate?
Test Forum and Gaia Game Discussion.
I also go through this thread as well: http://www.gaiaonline.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3210642
The above thread was originally for a 14G crackdown, but I've used it to track down sig violations. All the ones you just got except the second one were all from that one thread.
Hm, because the mods I've spoken to, do appriciate the work you are doing. I am not a moderator of the gaming forum, but I can speak to one. I'd like to add you on as my helper, but Im not assigned to the forums you regulate, and CB would be pointless because you can't deal with ToS violations.
Hey, wait what?

Wait a minute....you're considering me to be Chatterbox helper?
Sadly, no. I can not give you that because the amount of threads that need t be moved in CB are ToS violations which helpers can not deal with, because they can not issue warnings or bans.
The only ones I moderate thus far are CB, GD and LI. And for LI I have a helper and he does a very good job at it.
Since Chatterbox would be too much, and the Life Issue subforum in GD is doing just fine, only one way to go. Hoo, boy...here it comes...

What about GD, then?
Im thinking about it. I'd have to clear it with the mods in GD first before I did anything because I don't want to make a move and not inform them.
It's getting somewhere...I knew my reporting would get me cred from the mods eventually, but I didn't think it would actually get me this far this fast. Seriously, folks, what have I done?

I can do GD.
I thought that only Admins could make people helpers...weird...
No only Admins can make people moderators. Moderators have helpers, who are assigned to one forum who can help keep the place clean. But if something is in violation of the ToS they have to forward it to their mentor.
So not only do GAIA Helpers do thread moves, but also bring up stuff like cybering and asking for ROMs and wares, to whoever gave them their helper position?
They move threads that are not allowed in the forum persay. But if it is a troller, etc yes they have to give it to a mod. If the mentor is not on, then anyone who is available, or just report it through the system.
I guess this part proves that I know about mod powers than GAIA Helper powers? Well, apparently it does...since I've never asked for help from the Helpers... sweatdrop

How many threads in GD do you have to move everytime you're on. I'm thinking it's a good number...I've seen quite a few of them, and have even reported some of them myself.
Quite a few. But then I lose count because Im also moving other ones in other forums. But GD is slowly turning into spam central. We are working on cleaning up CB and I think it is semi working.
That's exactly what I thought. gonk sweatdrop

I guess I can take that job, then.
This would be interesting and yet confusing at the same time... mrgreen
It's a lot to get used to, a lot to read over before you do. And as I said I have to check with other GD mods.
Now the next quote is something you probably wouldn't expect. That's right...you get training to be a GAIA Helper, in a way.

Stickies for the forum, guidelines for being a helper,etc.
I might as well read GD stickies forum right now.
And where are these helper guidelines?
They are given to you when and if you become a helper.
Oh, I see.
Who knows exactly how this will turn out? Stay tuned!
