Community Moderators Needed!

[gig_freak]

There’s an entire category for that - “my fiverr gig”

I know, but it should be only one thread, not an entire category. 😉

I don’t like to wake up and most of the subjects being “I made a first sale” or “Hello I joined Fiverr”.

[coerdelion]

The mods - and regulars! - can move posts to the correct category.

I love how one former Mod and one aspiring Mod liked my since flagged post.

I guess this exemplifies the true test of Mod-hood. Can you handle being a Mod in a world where there are a lot of very easily offended people? - And can you handle and justify doing that for free?

Or if you yourself are an arguably easily offended person who feels like being a Mod is your true calling, do you think you can pull it off without burning out?

Burn all the flags! Well, not all, but at least half are just weak attempts to censor people.

[fibocci]

I’ll think about it on my cake day. Probably will be on the forums for a while…

On second thought, I might just procrastinate with this.

[vickiespencer]

Just Done it 🙂

Apparently I am not suitable for it,

but never stop dreaming 😊

May be success will come in this way,

Best Of Luck FIVERR 💙

Just Done it 🙂

Apparently I am not suitable for it,

Why do you think that? Did you get some sort of message saying so?

I take it all back. Buy as many votes as you want. If you are burning flags, I’m in!

@visualstudios 4 President!

Maybe someone who won´t take my funny threads down.

Maybe they, as in your flgger, did not understand hyperbole? :thinking:

Then you should have more confidence in what you have to offer as a Forum mod.

Obviously I was confidence,

Or else i dont even apply for this post 🙂

[vickiespencer]

Oh, since you said, “Apparently, I am not suitable for it,” I thought you meant you were not confident you would be able to meet the requirements of being a mod, and I was trying to get you to have some self-confidence.

[humanissocial]

Tbh why all the meksells or “how do I get orders” posts don’t just get directly dumped or deleted is a mystery to me. There are SO many and there’s so many replies to them already. Every new user can just spend 30 seconds looking up the older topics. I understand freedom of speech, but some days my Home is filled with 30 posts like these and maybe people who really need help get buried under the “how to get 1st order” posts and that bugs me a lot.

Those repeat meksell posts actually break the forum rules and I’m utterly baffled why they aren’t deleted. No wonder people keep posting them. They get away with it. I really hope that changes.

See, this is why I’d be a terrible forum moderator. Haha.

I’ll support you if you’ll support me xD

This does bring up an interesting aspect of mods - there are set rules of course but personal opinion and common sense are far more important. If I were modding I would have laughed at your post as I did when I saw it and read it in the context and tongue-in-cheekness that it was intended.

However, someone may have then flagged it and I would then have to reconsider it in the light of the rules. In that case you have to weigh up the rules broken and stuff, maybe discuss it with another mod etc. That’s when it gets time consuming as you can imagine.

[debodutta420]

Just applied! Let’s see what the happens. 😄

[farazrafii]

wp_kid and GIG N/A madness, I knew it will come to this.

Regarding BENEFITS, in my book, that means free Tshirt, notepad, pen, sticky notes, shower cap, shower slippers, umbrella, beach towel, and backpack. When I was selecting my new bank I send them that exact list and said whoever gets me more things from the list gets me as the client.

If Fiverr would allow voting for moderators, I’d vote for you. 😄

[michal247]

Hopefully the newly selected moderators can help in turning the forum into a great place for all of us to hang and help each other out.

Please don’t do this. Paradise always falls. People just can’t handle it. That’s why they go stealing other people’s fruit and getting kicked out, or they get plugged into virtual reality pods so giant metal AI spiders can use the human race as an energy source.

Do you really want that on your conscience?

Humans only thrive as a species when there is a good fight to be had. The Romans knew it, the Greeks knew it, the Aztecs knew it, and America was founded on it.

Personally, I’d like to see a moderation team who can stir things up a bit. Create an entire category for losers of the week where how-do-I-mek sell posts get brutally dumped to. Then have a few really gripping forum games like Who’s God Gets You the Most Sells, where each week people who usually wouldn’t start writing Alhamdulillah as they sign off all their posts, while sellers who already do, give worshiping other Gods like Vishnu a chance.

Right here, right on this forum, we could finally unravel the very mysteries of the universe, all while having epic gladiatorial combat occasionally.

Of course, there is a tiny bit of hyperbole in there. However, the forum only hit the pits after the great wave of bans of actually interesting people and natural discussion.

Trying to create a virtuous utopia always fails. It’s like when you ban smoking in bars, all the interesting people are suddenly gone and the people left try very hard to pretend they are still enjoying themselves, but then they drop off one by one until your bar goes belly up.

All that said good luck. You are possibly one of the few people I can think of here who will apply who is not on a power trip and actually makes a living on Fiverr.

Lol @cyaxrex get post flagged for talking truth

[imagination7413]

I’m tempted to apply. I don’t know if it’d be a good idea, though.

[darrendesign]

There is a few candidates for this place I hope to see one of them as a moderator. Also it will be fun to create a voting poll so we can vote 🙂

[chris_ld]

Today last day to apply for!!!

[engshimul]

Mostly late, but I’ve just submitted with hope.

[marinapomorac]

If Fiverr would allow voting for moderators, I’d vote for you. 😄

I just applied for the MOD status. Recent events made me realize I need to focus my help and support here on the forum on another level.

Yes. Regarding that, I was researching lately how to solve the “flagged post” issue, and I discovered your old reply stating that each flag is checked personally by a mod and reevaluated with the context around the post.

So flags are a tricky section to handle.

It is a good thing that you involve more people into a decision before proceeding with the flag.
