DuoDex Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 (edited) Here's a mobile screenshot of my own profile. Doesn't look much different as you can see. I don't think a screenshot of the ModCP would be quite appropriate from me, as getting all of it in on a mobile device is nigh-impossible. Perhaps another moderator could help there.EDIT : No, I will not tell you what your user notes are, r4pt0r. They're seecret. That is why they are called 'moderator-only'.MRS : His posts have been melted with acid. I would say there are 60+ banned users currently. Changing avatars and sigs is fairly rare, maybe once per month? I don't really know. And yes, we can see banned users' profiles, not that there's much interesting there.

I hit "View conversations" on your profile, wondering what it was, and then posted a message as a "conversation" and it showed up as a visitor message! Why? How? When? Where?

Columbia Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 Do moderators get warnings/infractions as well? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuoDex Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 Do moderators get warnings/infractions as well? Thanks!Technically, yes. I have yet to see it happen though, supposedly we are 'paragons of virtue' and whatnot. We are rude about each other and others in a different, non-public place.

Red Iron Crown Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 What are your favorite forum boards?I like General Discussion, Gameplay Questions, and Suggestions and Development Discussion. And Forum Games for silliness.Red Iron Crown, how did you get your username?I accidentally used my regular password in the username field.Do all the moderators have a secret fallout shelter for forum disasters like the April Fools Flamewar?We are issued flame-proof suits made of asbestos that we wear when the forum gets hot (I hear there might be health concerns about them, though).

TheMoonRover Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 (edited) Has a moderator ever been banned or had moderator status revoked for doing something wrong? (a.k.a. become a Common Demoderator?)Conversely, has a user ever been temporarily banned then later gone on to become a moderator?EDIT AFTER REPLY: I know you can't say who; I was just curious about whether it had happened or not.Question for Red Iron Crown: have you changed your password since?

technicalfool Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 Has a moderator ever been banned or had moderator status revoked for doing something wrong? (a.k.a. become a Common Demoderator?)Even if there was, we wouldn't reveal that information publically. Definitely Not The Done Thing.Conversely, has a user ever been temporarily banned then later gone on to become a moderator?I don't know about banned, but I know at least one moderator who has old infractions from their non-mod days. Same rule as above applies though: We ain't gonna tell ya who! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuoDex Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 I think I have warnings at least. Not sure who has the infractions, though.Take-home lesson : being warned or even infracted is no barrier to being a moderator, as long as you are polite and friendly most of the time.

r4pt0r Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 What gave you the idea that there would be separate boards?If the ps4 version won't impede the pc development, they will likely be different, as it is with Minecraft.- - - Updated - - -Plus they just will be different, I'd think.

Red Iron Crown Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 (edited) Has a moderator ever been banned or had moderator status revoked for doing something wrong? (a.k.a. become a Common Demoderator?)Never banned, but I had a few notices plus one infraction heavy enough to put me back in the moderation queue for a month before I became a moderator. Regarding the infraction, I knew I was doing wrong when I did what I did, but it was funny and I have no regrets. and I learned a valuable lesson about following the rules.Question for Red Iron Crown: have you changed your password since?Yes, now it is BatteryStaplerHorseCorrect.

Last edited by the Moderator Oversight Committee; Today at 19:49.Just a tip for potential loggers-in as RIC, I believe that counts as impersonation of a moderator, and is against the rules.P.S.You didn't hear this from me.

SmallFatFetus Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 one infraction heavy enough to put me back in the moderation queue for a month before I became a moderator.But now you have to tell us what you did!No, you actually don't.

Red Iron Crown Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 But now you have to tell us what you did!No, you actually don't. But you should. For science.I don't mind sharing, especially for science. I figured out how to make it look like someone else edited my posts, so for lulz I did so in a thread about the Magic Boulder, made it look like the SQUAD account was editing my posts to keep the location of the boulder secret. I knew I was skirting the rules when I did it and fully expected a warning or something, but instead I got a 30-point infraction for impersonating Squad staff. The moderator who infracted me was kind enough to write me a very nice PM afterwards explaining why it is not a good idea to do such things even in jest.Shortly afterwards Rule 3.3 was slightly revised to include the phrase "intended for use of parody", I can't help but feel partly responsible.

SmallFatFetus Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 How do you guys feel about SQUAD's recent decisions (How they announced ps4 release, post 1.0 updates, etc) and the community's backlash? Please, be honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuoDex Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 How do you guys feel about SQUAD's recent decisions (How they announced ps4 release, post 1.0 updates, etc) and the community's backlash? Please, be honest.If you ask me, I am thrilled by the prospect of Unity 5, because I expect it to include PERFORMANCE ENHANCEMENTS! plus, I think it might deal with some of the more annoying, lasting bugs. I did a post here about it.PS4 : Not so much, although I do look forward to the performance increases that are all but guaranteed by consoles' inferior hardware.The backlash : a lot of people have been overly negative recently. PS4 does not mean the death if KSP. If Squad b makes a bad decision, cut them some slack. It's their first game, and it's a pretty dang good one for all of its faults. Enjoy what you have, rather than complaining about what you don't And now back to your regularly scheduled thread of asking the moderators questions about the forums!
