Bac_Talan Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 I really don't approve of the "friend recommendation" system suggested in the first post. For one thing, it would mean that someone must know a mod to be a mod, meaning that many good players (including me.. :P) would never have received mod invitations. Secondly, as previously stated, Jagex would have to eventually release info on how mods were selected, and it would make players *really* angry. Finally, I get enough random pms of "Friends?" every time I step into F2P Lumby. It's hard enough for us mods, let's try not to make it any worse. That's my concise opinion. Feel free to comment, compliment, criticize, or do whatever you want as long as it's within the rules.. :| I once shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die.Pics or it didn't happen.

Great choice jagex, give p modship to the guy who has the all time black mark record. 1. Based on levels alone, you cannot say that someone does or does not deserve modship. Seriously, this has been said countless times and may have to be said countless more. So what if Bac_Talan has less than the overall total/combat level than you expected? That doesn't make him any less worthy of moderation than you or I, if we only looked at total levels. Oh, and if we did just look at total level, we'd be oblivious to the rest of that person. 2. No one, not even Bac, said that he had another account. I don't even see where it's implied that he has black marks. You're pulling stuff out of thin air and trying to throw that in his face. Honestly, grow up. ------ Doesn't seem like many people agree with the friend recommendation schema, and I don't blame them for it either. What's the point of a moderation system if only your friends were allowed to get in? And even if such a system came about, you can't prove [to me] beyond a shadow of a doubt that each friend on that player moderator's friendlist would be mature, responsible and capable of the job.

Seriously, your arguements have no merit, you should need to be experienced in the game before you have any chance of becoming a player mod, and you should also have a completly clear record on your home ip.

klankaos Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 Please don't engage in huge quotefests, you can make your reply without having to restate everything that's already been said in the debate. If you must, try to use only one or two, if they're relevant. Arguing about who has the most exp really isn't in any way relevant to the debate, and could probably be considered both spamming and flaming. Being immature is a part of being mature.

alcoolj Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 The biggest fault in the authors suggestion is this part ̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ãâ¦Ã¢â¬Åmake 10 player mods from known people in the community" To get 6200 mods it would take months, if not years to get enough pmods to cover the roles they currently play. Do you honestly think that having 10 people begin the process, that by the time there are 6200 Pmods that every single one is going have the same degree of maturity? Get real.

alcoolj Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 I disagree ̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Ãâ at least Jagex maintain control over who they see fit to be a Pmod. Yes they get it wrong at times, and each week 20 or so people are demoded for those very reasons. Your model would see the 6k mods picked from a select group, based not on in game reporting skills or how helpful they are, or maturity levels ̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Ãâ but would be picked because they are the best of a group that the select group know. They would not be the cream of the crop, but rather they would be the least sour milk. Imo ̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Ãâ your model would bring significantly more bad pmods into the game than currently exists, not to mention the vast workload increase Jagex would have to do to implement it, and maintain it.

Say we have 10 player mods, people who are well known AND mature, they each get to nominate 2 player mods each.. are they just going to nominate anyone?

The people picked arnt just going to get sick of runescape, thats why you pick high lvls, they are already invested into the game, and if you pick mature players as i said they arnt going to suddenly ruin their reputation regardless of whether the quit or not. And jagex would still screen every refference, no previous black marks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
