Fixed sorry about that

What is considered "problematic content"? Because most stuff i see is people voicing concerns with lack of real communication on here, or lack of actual game improvement, which in turns brings out a ton of white knights that just talk down to the OP or anyone that agrees with the criticism. So some actual insight to what you deem "problematic content" would be nice. But your team seem to love to be vague, so doubt you will really clean this up until it bites you in the bum.

Thanks for the reply, and sounds good, just hope people don't let power go to their head.

This is steam forums man, it's not like they can really do anything anywhere but here. Kind of a worthless feat.

Moderators aren't infallible. The dev team can and does override moderator decisions. I imagine, if they have to override someone several times, they'll be second guessing their decision to bring that person on.

As a moderator for other discussion areas, it's definitely not all fun and rainbows. That's why it's good to have at least two or three other mods so that if one mod is having a bad day, they can step back and let another make a decision without being biased.

They'll also need to be prescient to when they speak as a moderator and when they speak as a user. A lot of people are afraid to have a discussion with an "orange" name for fear of retribution if they say disagree with them. An orange name need to always speak as a user until they need to step in as a mod. I've seen them use their position in a threatening manner and that's not good.

In the end, I trust the team to select a few who have shown the ability to be level headed and civil. There are many of us here who fall under those two categories and a great many who don't.

The main thing to remember is that people who volunteer fro the position are people too. They're allowed to voice their opinions and play the game. It's a thankless job that puts a target on their backs because other users are quick to paint them with the same brush as the devs when they disagree with the direction of the game.

Now days most people doing these types of things are just people with inflated ego's, obsessed with "status", and narcissism in my experience.

With our player base continuously expanding ???? heuh No Continuously leaving you wanna mean !!

Yeah 100 percent agree, we all have bad days and nowadays you make 1 mistake and the vultures will circle looking for your demise.

that is also why I don't want to moderate on discord or other forums because there is little benefit to doing so and more risk than anything else, I don't always think its a power trip sometimes it's because people want to contribute and help.

Hey everyone, I'm Jonathan. I've been a gamer since the mid-eighties and now enjoy PC gaming, especially ArmA 3, Borderlands, Halo, and casual games like Stardew Valley. I love reading authors like Tolkien and Crichton, and I'm a big fan of Stargate SG-1. Music-wise, I enjoy a wide range except for Rap, Techno, and Metal. I'm a disabled gamer and proud to be part of this community.

As a moderator, I aim to ensure civilized discussions. Constructive opinions are welcome, but rudeness will result in warnings and potentially bans. Be civil, and you're free to express your thoughts. Looking forward to engaging with you all!.

Know that whenever you see me speak, I will be speaking as a user unless you see me cleary state I'm speaking as a mod. So I hope you will still see me as just another user for 99% of my comments.
