Vanamonde Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 Is there a place where we can make a thread advertising an animation series that is in the planning that is not ksp related? Space Lounge will serve for that purpose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supernovy Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 Silly Claw! He meant favorite modification, not moderator. That's because he said what's, not who's. On that note, who is your favorite moderator?Vanamonde. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Iron Crown Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 Do you have any stories on how you discovered KSP?I saw a thread about KSP in the gaming section on another forum, I love space and it was free so I gave it a try. What's your favorite mod in Ksp?Lately I've been extolling the virtues of Chatterer, which adds in game communication sounds. From the description it sounds silly and superficial, which I guess it is, but once used to it the game sounds lifeless without it. My other favorites are Kerbal Engineer Redux, Environmental Visual Enhancements, Ven's Stock Revamp, and Editor Extensions. And Hyperedit.On that note, who is your favorite moderator?That's tough, they're all smart, funny people that I like for different reasons. If I had to pick one it would probably be Vanamonde, he is incredibly witty while also giving great advice about difficult moderation situations (plus he wrote me a very nice PM when he had to moderate me back when I was a regular user). A+++, would moderate with again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaarst Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 Do you have pre-written texts that you just paste on these extremely generic (and often incomplete) threads such as: "My KSP crash, help me !" or "Why can't I use SAS with only a scientist piloting my ship ?" ?

Claw Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Do the mods sleep? I enjoy sleep a great deal. Do you have pre-written texts that you just paste on these extremely generic (and often incomplete) threads such as: "My KSP crash, help me !" or "Why can't I use SAS with only a scientist piloting my ship ?" ?Like sal, I don't have any "pre-written" text. The only things I cut and paste might be from some of the more complex issues that are in other threads I've written. And usually in those cases I just link over.Cheers,~Claw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanamonde Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Do the mods sleep? Yes, but not all at the same time. The sun never sets on the moderation empire. Do you have pre-written texts that you just paste on... I tried that for a while, but it turned out not to actually save me much time or effort. I had to go find the one I wanted, and then customize it for the occasion anyway. Faster just to write it as needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mister Dilsby Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 I'm generally businesslike with lock messages, but sometimes I like to have a bit of fun with it.I like that message more than I probably should. I'm going to make some popcorn later and do a search for threads containing the text "is locked" or "is now locked". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do my "wave-offs" (the posts where I redirect from profanity, personal attacks, attacks on religion, etc) I am sometimes guilty of qualify as that?And what about warnings about infractions?

I've racked up a couple of those for discussing certain sensitive content...Backseat moderation is usually stuff like "This thread should be locked." If you see things in a thread that are against the rules, it is best not to respond to them and just hit the report button.Some of us moderators have infractions and warnings in our histories, it's not enough to disqualify someone. But infraction history is certainly considered for potential moderators, best to keep your nose clean as much as possible and not be a consistent troublemaker.
