How jagex should have selected player mods.

Recommended Posts

There is a reason that practically noone agrees with your plan for picking mods - yet you vehemently stick with it. You seem blind to suggestion, and respond with such comments like:

 

 

 

Your an idiot..

 

 

 

 

I won't respond to your debate topics, simply because you flame and bait, and don't debate.

 

 

 

Please note that I didn't have to quote 5 blocks to state my point.

first off, my apologies for the quote pyramids, half my fault there...

 

 

 

second, whose to say a famous high level might think it funny to nominate people who do not deserve the position, and would do exactly what Mico is saying.

 

 

 

as for using levels as an argument, skill experience is a major part of the point of the thread.

I didnt say select famous high lvls at random, I said pick people who are mature and respected by the community, like leesters for example, or oddfaery, or s1acker, i could name 100 off the top of my head.

 

Can you see these people nominating the wrong people couse they think its funny? I cant.

i know what you said, and it's still a possibility.

 

you're saying to let mature people pick the mods. my basic point is that it's not the job of regular players to pick other volunteers. there are also thousands of people possibly more mature and better suited for mods than them who would remain unselected because they don't know a famous player.

That would be patheticly stupid, only the people who suck up big time to their moderator friends will be chosen.

 

 

 

If they implemented a system like that i would DEFINITELY quit.

There would be a limit of 2 nominations per person, and the people chosen arnt just going to give it to anyone.
In your ever-so-perfect-plan, they wouldn't pick bad people. But your plan is far from perfect, none of the mods are perfect(even the best ones), and none of the people they would consider picking are perfect. I don't know when you decided you could speak for a good majority of people and say for them "I won't pick bad people to be moderators!" But honestly, you need to get a grip on reality. This plan has a very high chance of failure. Somewhere down the line, people who don't deserve to be mods will get recommended. Power corrupts. Also, as I and many others have said before, people who don't deserve player mod status are going to get it before those who do just because they somehow have a connection with an existing moderator. Jagex has the best system I can think of currently, and I think they should be the only ones doing the mod picking. Yes, they're not perfect, but I would trust them over a handful of player moderators who are picking from what would be a power-hungry crowd. And you said they need to be well-respected, well-known, and high level. That automatically eliminates any low levels, and there are some great low level moderators out there. Combat level does not equal maturity. And neither does total level. And while that may mean they have a lot of experience in the game, that does not by any means make them a mature player either. Some of the most immature people I've met are very high in combat level. I and other people have said these statements so many times it is getting redundant. And from what I've read, you have shown no backup argument(correct me if you have). If you're going to debate, you have to debate all the points. You can't just throw our best arguments against you out the window and act like they don't exist.

 

Secondly, Jagex would never accept this. I can't imagine what an uproar you would cause on the Runescape Forums if you posted this there. And I'm not recommending you to either. You will get all the same replies that you have gotten here, and even more so will be from current moderators. I can't even remember if that many people have even agreed with your methods in this thread. And your idea wouldn't be any more welcome over there if you keep up your pointless flaming.

You keep picking at single things but its the whole together that makes it work.

 

A high lvl mature player mod would have the game experience to be a good moderator, and having played a lot of hours over a longer time period would know more mature players who would be a good nomination.

 

He has a good reputation and is unlikely to want to ruin that, and he has a lot to lose if he does infact break the rules.

 

I flame you becouse you make stupid points, like saying im trying to speak for all of runescape, where did i say that..

 

this is MY oppinion, no one elses.

 

Low lvl player mods have a lot less to lose and in some cases as i have shown here have very shady pasts.

in the end you're going off your idea of a high level, though.

 

 

 

game experience has nothing to do with moderating the game. you can know every last detail of the rules but not know where yanille is and be an excellent moderator.

 

any player has something to lose, and it's all dependant on their opinion. that 'low level' could think that losing 50 attack is something worth quitting over, while many players here, once losing an account, start it again and get the old stats and bank back within the year.

Let this be my last post on the matter, and the most concise/drawn out of them all up to this point. Perhaps I'll come back when you learn not to flame other people for expressing their opinion...?

 

 

 

Overall, your idea relies on the theory that high level players and/or players that are well-respected and known in the community are willing to do the job in the first place, and that they know at least two other people that are both willing and capable of doing the job. You also assume that the current system is at fault since you don't believe a level 50 to be able to levy justice in-game, and you only feel that someone of high combat and stature is only worthy of the crown.

 

 

 

Let me tell you this -- your concept is wrong. Being a player moderator doesn't just mean replying to bot attacks and dealing with spammers (you're not under any real obligation to do so, which is quite the oxymoron), it also means keeping a level head when dealing with powers such as muting and priority reports. Being popular, well-known, or high level has absolutely nothing to do with it. If you can't see that then perhaps you need to take off those rose-colored glasses and take this with a grain of salt. Also, you should know by now that being a high level or having a high skill can take as little as eight months. I met a level 126 the other day that only played for less than a year, and his non-combat stats are impressively high. (Coincidentally, he is a player moderator.) He's only played for eight months, yet he's a level 126. I've played for about five years, and I'm only level 118 with relatively high non-combat stats. Does that make me any less eligible than the 126? I wouldn't believe that it does.

 

 

 

Now, let's go around the room for a bit of quote responses!

 

 

 

 

I didnt say select famous high lvls at random, I said pick people who are mature and respected by the community, like leesters for example, or oddfaery, or s1acker, i could name 100 off the top of my head.

 

Can you see these people nominating the wrong people couse they think its funny? I cant.

 

 

 

Do you know how many "micro communities" there are of RuneScape? I can count about seven off the top of my head, including Tip.it -- in no particular order, Zybez, Sal's Realm, Runevillage, RuneWeb, RuneScape Bits and Bytes, and RuneHQ. There's countless others out there as well, some smaller than others, some that are a fairly decent size. Out of all of those communities, I doubt that someone that's "mature and respected by the Tip.it community" would be respected (or even known for that matter) at another community. Out of roughly four million people, I highly doubt that those three people would be known or respected by everyone, and I doubt that everyone would want them as a Player Moderator until they knew that they were capable of doing the job. And no, there's no way that those three people can get to know four million others, earn their respect, and then push for modship.

 

 

 

While I can't see them nominating wrong people because it's funny, I can see them nominating the "wrong" people in the subjective eye of the community. You have to bear in mind that player mods aren't out to serve just you, they're out to serve the entire community, to establish some justice in-game. Besides that, you can't just up and tell me that Leesters or Oddfaery is mature and I've never met them; that's highly subjective to the beholder. You may see them as mature, I may not. Please do not forget that concept.

 

 

 

... 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.

 

 

 

In RuneScape, the higher you go, [ironically] the less you'll have to do. Killing stuff or people gets boring after a few thousand times. Aside from that, many high level (and well respected!) players quit every single day, doesn't matter what anyone else thinks, either. If you want proof, you don't have to even look far on the Tip.it forums.

 

 

 

Again you go back to the debacle of mature players. Get it through your mind that maturity is, was, and always will be until the end of time, subjective to the beholder. Besides, would a mature person really need to have references about their maturity? Sounds kind of lame, if you ask me. One more thing -- you wouldn't know what those black marks were for; they could be legacy punishments, or something nickel-and-dime, warranting 2 or less black marks. If they've learned their lesson and reformed, then maybe they're a little bit wiser. Don't you think that someone who's been punished might grow a bit? And of course Jagex takes those black marks into account. If they see that the user did it and it wasn't a very good thing, then they won't get promoted (such as drop trading or even advertising a site).

 

 

 

You keep picking at single things but its the whole together that makes it work.

 

A high lvl mature player mod would have the game experience to be a good moderator, and having played a lot of hours over a longer time period would know more mature players who would be a good nomination.

 

He has a good reputation and is unlikely to want to ruin that, and he has a lot to lose if he does infact break the rules.

 

...

 

Low lvl player mods have a lot less to lose and in some cases as i have shown here have very shady pasts.

 

 

 

1. I seriously doubt that you know what a good moderator is. In your view it's a high level that's popular with lots of online time and experience; in my view it's someone that's capable of levying justice and keeping the game a safe place for us all, no matter their level or experience in-game.

 

 

 

2. Both a high and a low level player mod have the exact same thing to lose (which is huge): credibility. If a high level abuses his powers, he has his credibility to lose, meaning you can't really trust him with power or any authority over anything. If a low level abuses his powers, he will lose his credibility in the future for when he does become a high level. You can't dismiss someone just because they're low level, and you can't look at only numbers to see if they can do the job.

The day you lose your grudge against that player moderator which sparked this entire debate will be the day you grow up, if only a little bit.

 

I'll wait patiently for that day; until then, have fun with your rant.

I deleted all those previous quotes so this post doesn't get extremely long and you don't have to scroll down for forever and a half to get to the content.

 

 

 

You didn't come out and say "I'm making a statement for all of Runescape that says 'I think everyone in Runescape will not recommend bad people to be player mods.'" That is obvious. But what you did say is that in your plan, every moderator will pick good, mature people. And we can't count on everyone to do that. That is what I mean by the statement "speaking for all of Runescape(or maybe just a portion)." In a perfect world, yes they would pick mature people. But this world is not perfect, and if it was I doubt a game such as Runescape that has violence in it would exist. So to re-iterate, what I'm saying is you can't assume that everyone who is promoted to player moderator -- and the people that they in turn recommend -- are going to pick the best people for recommendation.

 

 

 

I also don't know when you decided that when people were making "stupid" points, it was ok to flame them. I see nothing about that in the Forum Rules. Try reading them sometime. And no, I don't believe you have been doing mild, intelligent flaming either. Neither did that moderator that warned you.

 

 

 

Yes, I know this is your opinion. And you are one of very few who share it. And you are very much entitled to it, no matter wrong I and others think it might be.

 

 

 

I would continue to debate the rest of your post, but Makoto the Phoenix has already done so. He has argued most if not all of your most recent points and arguments, and once again done a remarkable job of proving you wrong. And once again I wholeheartedly agree with him.

Disagree. There are plenty of good players out there who aren't "famous" so to speak who would be wonderful player moderators. Why should they be pushed aside simply because they are in the top 20 players of runescape, or are popular on fansites?

 

 

 

You can not tell if someone is power abusing until they actually have the power. In all honesty just because your famous doesn't mean your a better person.

 

 

 

There are quite a few people who are popular whom i wouldn't trust with my cat.

 

 

 

I think the current way is fine. If people see a moderator power abusing they should report it as Jagex takes it very seriously.

 

 

 

 

The people i mentioned wouldnt pick anyone who was nagging for it.

 

Regardless of how they pick player mods it should be some one from the community that people respect, not some one no ones ever heard of.

 

 

 

But how do you know that? Do you know each and every person personally? If you do, why should only your friends be moderators? There's the friend politics right there.

 

 

 

By the time that it gets to the point of having to punish a player mod many innocent players have most likely already been the victims of whatever this pmod has done.

 

Handing abusable powers to some one that nobody knows or respects is just foolish, if you have never got past lvl 50 in a skill how are you going to do your job well?.

 

 

 

 

If a Moderator has been power abusing and have been reported to Jagex they are investigated if they find that it was indeed power abuse, all the cases will be reversed.

 

 

 

I don't agree with your logic just because someone has 50+ in skills doesn't make them player moderator material. I have almost 70+ in everything am i player moderator material?

 

 

 

Being a moderator isn't about your in game skills. It's about knowing the rules, and being able to identify legitimate breakage of those rules and reporting it for the better of the community.

 

 

Actually I prefer lower level mods to all the "famous" people you mentioned. Mainly because I find higher level people that you mentioned to be the most selfish and least helpful. Who would you rather be a player mod, the level 126 in the corner which his chat off fletching for a level 99, not noticing anybody. Or the level 73 just going about his business and playing the game more for fun than anything else?

 

 

 

Player Moderators are normal players though they can have peace when they want. In all honesty you wouldn't know they were a player moderator unless they spoke so if you rocked up and they weren't talking you wouldn't even know they were there. ::'

High levelled players are not always mature or even experienced with the game. Those who have played for a long time have experience, not neccessarily high levels. I have a friend that is level 100 who has absolutely no idea how to find the rules on the website. Level has nothing to do with the requirements to do a good job as a moderator. It is obvious that Jagex has experiment their selection and from my personal experience, which is a high amount, I am absolutely possitive that they do an amazing job. Yes, there are occasionally player moderators who do not deserve status. From my understanding, which is also high, those moderators are very quickly found and demodded.

1) Runescape is still going so it seems that the current mods are doing fine.

 

 

 

2) Bad things are always overblown out of proportion. There's always someone posting/complaining about some great injustice yet rarely does anyone ever mention anything about the kindness of others.

 

 

 

3) People have beefs with mods and vice versa. Mods have it worst because of the extra responsibilities they have. Mods have to report rule breakers, help others, deal with harassment, other mod responsibilities, and lastly play the game itself.

 

 

 

4) If there rogue mod out there then crucify him and not the whole mod community with him. Instead of starting argument on forums send in a complaint, though the handful of jagex mods probably get thousands of them daily and may not resolve the issue.

 

 

 

5) I'm a pmod and on two occasions I muted two players without actually breaking a jagex rule. I don't regret muting them either. Also people should be aware that their actions will be accompanied by the appropriate consequences. Two unjust muting amongst the hundreds of reports that i've filed to jagex hardly makes me an abusive mod. If it does then may the hand of Jagex smite me.

 

 

 

6) All mutings and bannings are first reported by pmods and then are confirmed by jmods. Do like it then take it up with the jmods.

Yes it does, thanks for confirming the fact that there is a problem with the current system when scumbags like you get nominated.

 

 

 

ANY abuse of power is not tollerated. You would fall into my rouge mod class as well...... I can honestly say I dont feel you deserve your title.

I think you missed my point. 2 Bad reports among a few hundred really makes me unfit to be a mod? Say I should be removed as mod for actions which only amount to less than 1% of my total actions? You only know that part of me and already I'm a scumbag. He without sin cast the first stone buddy. I did feedback from Jagex and they showed patience and mercy. These two morons acted disrespectful to me in such a way I've never been treated before in rs. Surely in such cases the ignore list would be the appropriate action but I was provoked in such a way it didn't seem fair to take the uncalled for abuse. You acted like an [wagon] then you should be prepared for an [wagon] kicking. People act like morons online because they can get away with it.

 

 

 

Jagex strives to have a 90% percent and higher accuracy when in comes to reporting. Also what about the rest of my post? It seems you only focused on the part which was for your side of the argument. If I'm really unfit to be mod then by all means, it is your duty to send in complaint to jagex to have me de-modded. If not then quit complaining about this situation if you are not going to fight to improve it.

It's the fact that you stated that you don't regret it that I don't like.....

 

 

 

Sure it happens all the time in the forums, you feel like banning a guy for beeing a total idiot.... but you don't do it! It's important to stick to the rule book, no matter how tempting it is.

 

 

 

Got to remember, I am going to guess you are P2P as it's easyer to explain.... Members pay for their accounts, any change in account status that was not a result of breach of the terms and conditions can have very negative effects on the company, and for that matter the over all view of the moderator team.

 

 

 

Whilst I find muting a player who had been extreamly rude (while not rule breaking) more understandable than a random mute..... It still should never happen.

 

 

 

The reason I didn't focus on the other parts is mainly because they are things that we have been over before, and I had nothing further to add.

To further elaborate, in both instances i did talked with it over with a jmod and apologized. I do not regret it because if another similar situation occurs I would have to be quick to use the ignore function or else the temptation may be fulfilled once more. If jagex enforces a 100% accuracy with mute reports then therefore muting the two players disqualifies me and then I accept the consequences of my actions even if I get demodded.

 

 

 

I'm not p2p, I've always been f2p and I can ensure you that with the majority of younger players being f2p the tendency of abusive behavior is higher than in p2p.

 

 

 

If i'm being verbally abused chances are the offending player would be abusive to others. By temporarily muting them it may save other players some grief and perhaps encourage the offending player to see the error in his behavior though most would probably be like "ZOMG, damn pmod, damn jagex for picking such ***** pmods." If abusive behavior can be clearly identified I sure it would be added as a rule. Jagex's code of conduct states that they wish all players to treat others with the respect they wish to be treated with. By my example if I'm abusive then I accept being muted too. I may not be happy about it but it's my own fault. Therefore I will refrain from being abusive to prevent my freedom being taken away again.

 

 

 

Lastly my previous post was meant for the author of the topic.

If they were verbally abusive towards you i can understand it, thats not really power abuse, the mute button is there to deal with abusive players.

Alright, here we go. As someone else has already said that they are a mod, it is time for me to come out as one as well. I have several things to ask and say in response to reversal. First of all, I personally know that Player Moderators have the following priorities in order from most important to least, yet still very much important:

 

 

 

1. Have fun playing the game.

 

2. Be a role model.

 

3. Be respectful to other players as well as other mods.

 

4. Report any rulebreaking appropriately.

 

5. Help players.

 

 

 

From that list, I do not think that the need to report is extremely important. Pmods are normal players with slight extra abilities as far as reporting goes.

Actually I prefer lower level mods to all the "famous" people you mentioned. Mainly because I find higher level people that you mentioned to be the most selfish and least helpful. Who would you rather be a player mod, the level 126 in the corner which his chat off fletching for a level 99, not noticing anybody. Or the level 73 just going about his business and playing the game more for fun than anything else?

 

 

 

I agree.

 

 

 

Not all the time, but usually, high level players are stuck up (Not talking about TIF) and the low level people are not. (Yes, there are some stuck up low level ones also) But, it would absolutely be favoritism. Don't think that people don't pretend to be nice, mature, helpful etc. Just so they can be a mod, then once they become a mod, screw you. They'd mute\ban anyone they didn't like. I think the old system has its flaws, but is pretty dang good.

i'll just say this:

 

the moderator team is quite large, it's impossible to predict how one individual of the several thousand will act with the muting ability. that large team is also made of humans, not perfectionist robots. humans make mistakes, and i'm sure everyone who has ever even heard of this thread has made hundreds of them in their lives (don't lie now...)

Just because someone who is high lvl and mature doesnt always mean he'd/she'd be the right mod. Unless you know every single person individually, the idea would be a bad one.

 

 

 

If the mod system were based on high lvls and in-game playing time, RS would become far too combat based..They'd see the need to have no skills just because everyone "wants" to become a Player Mod. Ive seen people who have just turned 14, and have 126 combat and a little less then 2k Total. They arnt mature and/or mod material.

 

 

 

Do lvls and experience in-game make you mature? No.

 

 

 

And on a second note, Low lvls deserve the right to Player Mod just as much as the 126 you just saw. For all you know, that low lvl could be far more mature and a lot nicer then that 126. Jagex should just continue using their system as it is now, why change it? The only reason you want it based on lvls is because you're starting to get jealous of the lower lvled people with Modship.

 

 

 

That is all I have to say.

I dont even want to be a p mod, so how am i jelous =D>

 

I think in game experience should be a part of the p mod recruitment process, thats my oppinion, you are entitled to yours.
