What's a moderator?

> The moderators (short singular form: "mod") are users (or employees) > of the forum who are granted access to the posts and threads of all > members for the purpose of moderating discussion (similar to > arbitration) and also keeping the forum clean (neutralizing spam and > spambots etc.).[12] Moderators also answer users' concerns about the > forum, general questions, as well as respond to specific complaints. > Common privileges of moderators include: deleting, merging, moving, > and splitting of posts and threads, locking, renaming, stickying of > threads, banning, unbanning, suspending, unsuspending, warning the > members, or adding, editing, and removing the polls of threads.[13] > "Junior Modding", "Backseat Modding", or "Forum copping" can refer > negatively to the behavior of ordinary users who take a moderator-like > tone in criticizing other members.

What are the current "majority" of Epic Mafia moderators?

Reading both of those, do you think they fit? Nah, they don't MODS aren't supposed to be YOUR friends, MODS aren't supposed to be your go-to buddy when somebody annoys you. MODS aren't supposed to be some people that go around saying "I'm going to ban you" or "I'm going to let that slide" or "I will not judge it just cause you're my friend". MODS aren't HUMANS, they're INTERNET moderators.

Moderators should be moderators when they have to be and that's either when they're judging a report, giving a punishment or being a jury. When a person with a title of a moderator enters a room, they're not a moderator rather a player like anyone else. When you make a friendship with them and meet them, they're still humanbeings and players. BUT when YOU break the rules and you get REPORTED, they're not the go-to buddies that you message them to lift off the report a bit or make it smaller or even assist you. When SOMEBODY else break the rules, you message them to get whoever you reported an instant violation .

What in the world gives you a privilege than a person like me? Why do you get the benefit of messaging a friend of yours to do something when you can just report normally like I do, or any normal person does?!?!

Oh wait, that's mod privileges. And that's when mods become humanbeings because all of humanbeings make a mistake.

When I claimed mods aren't people, I didn't mean they're some robots or something but they should be. They shouldn't let their feelings or relations interfere with their judgement WHICH IS QUITE HAPPENING THESE DAYS.

If mods are going to have people they like and hate, people they chill off on the reports and people that they are trying their best to ban then sorry but, mods shouldn't be players.

I'm so done with people saying "I'm gonna text "a mod friend"", or a mod saying "I'm going to give a violation". You can just report them and let everything get done. I'm so done with the current mods(Not all of them), lots of mods that have been here for lots of times that I hate, YES, I hate them and I hate playing with them. Their attitude of being superior and just prefering their friends and spending the whole game just talking to the people they know about OGI stuff.

I'm sorry but, this circle-jerkery of deciding who's a mod and stuff like that should end, the mods should end and they should be picked not by players, not by other mods but rather by Lucid himself.

If you're a mod and you feel like this applies to you, depromote yourself.
