Contents

All Concerned,


Please allow this message/posting to serve as command guidance on the moderation of forum posts. The ability/duty of moderators to 'moderate' content on the forums which is out of compliance with standards, is something to be exercised with care.


To that end, and to reduce complaints which are hard to address/investigate due to the way the forum software works, a form has been created for reporting moderation actions.


The form should be self-explanatory; http://www.7thcavalry.us/forum/619-website-moderation/

  1. This form is only for administrative actions taken on our website.
  2. If you've edited a post, please explain what you removed and why you removed it.
  3. Please include all details of the action that you took.
  4. Explain why the action taken was necessary.
  5. Link a screenshot in the details area of the post before it was edited/deleted.


I expect that all members in administrative roles who exercise their moderation abilities on the forums, will comply with the requirement to complete accurately a report form.


This detail will assist the General Staff in tracking repeat offenders easily, as well as to allow for a much easier time when adjudicating disputes over what should or should not have been moderated.


Failure to file a report when completing a moderation action, will result in loss of access, and may result in administrative processing.


Regards,

the COS
