MOD WARNING SYSTEM Options

[*kryogenix*]

I have been a victim of moderator abuse TWICE (three times if you count the one I'm bringing up about the cosplay thread) now only recently.

I think there should be a mod warning system in place, where users can vote against a moderator's action and then once they abuse their powers to a certain point, they get kicked off the team.

Cause I'm sick of it.

I wasn't implying that some of our mods are too young to be able to handle it, I thought that was clear, actually. What I was trying to say was that while we have a lot of young people on staff, I think we've chosen a good group that is mature enough to handle the responsibility despite their age. I never said that our mods were too young or immature, I was actually saying quite the opposite. Perhaps my wording was off, but it was meant as a compliment. This topic was started (as well as others) because a lot of people have doubts about the competency of our staff members, and with that I was expressing my support for them.

Anyway, as far as importance goes, that was a small portion of my post. My big point was what I said about miscommunication. I hope nobody took what I said as an insult, because that's not at all how I meant it to come across. I think Rebecca and I are on the same page with regards to how mod actions should be carried out. Too many times have I seen someone mention "Hmm, maybe we should do ___" and then another mod coming across it and responding, "YES! You're absolutely right! As a matter of fact, I'll do that right now!" without giving it a second thought. I'm simply saying that some of these things aren't as simple as that, they need more thought and more discussion.

Yeah, you're wording seemed off because I was trying to think back to where age was a factor mentioned in this whole incident. I gotcha now, though.
