Seeking Moderators
Posted by Admin-Mat on 2 Jul 2016, 9:15 pm
Greetings, villagers! As you may have noticed we received a massive influx of players over the last day. This is far more than our little team of moderators can handle, so we're looking to expand our moderator team, and welcome some new Player Safety members! If you are interested in applying for a moderator position, please send a message to [email protected] with the following: your Furvilla username, your age, your location and time zone, your prior moderation experience, and why you'd like to be a moderator on Furvilla. Please note that we can only accept applications from players aged eighteen or older.
Also, we have a message to share from MOD-Deinmaar, the Head of Community, who would like to address some issues with our current moderators' actions:
The moderators owe the entire Furvilla Community a massive apology. The deletion of many, many threads that never actually violated the Terms of Service wasn't right of us, and we are working to rectify and retrain our team before we open the forums and chats again to make sure this is never an issue again. Miscommunication is no excuse, and we gravely apologize for the trauma this has caused many users who did absolutely nothing wrong. We sincerely hope you enjoy the rest of the site while we work diligently to right our wrongs.
Furvilla has received a much higher amount of registrations than we were prepared for and we're working to ensure our Forums and Chatrooms are welcoming to all members. Please bear with us while we hire additional help! In the meantime, if you haven't gotten a chance, please be sure to read the Newbie Guide and continue your enjoyment of the game.
Have a lovely night!
Thanks for the quick and sensible response! I'm very happy you guys are owning up to it and not beating around the bush so to speak. Very promising, looking forward to seeing how this site evolves!
I'm really glad to see this update on the matter. The absolute mess that was the forums last night was... discouraging, to say the least. I'm glad you are taking the time to expand your team to make sure the FV forums don't completely devolve into a terrible trash bin. Best of luck!
Thank you for the announcement... Good luck finding more moderators! ^v^
Thank you very much for acknowledging the problem and taking steps to rectify it and make sure it doesn't happen again in the future. Best of luck with the mod applications, i would apply but i have my hands full already. :)
Thank you very much for the apology. I have prior experience so I may toss an email your way!
I appreciate the apology and the decision to shut down forums entirely for the moment. It's a new website which is inevitably going to run into large bumps like this.
thank you so much! you seem to be handling the situation well and i wish you all luck in your hunt for new moderators!
Accepted and completely understand able... a lot of threads were being made like a double-edge sword just to cause trouble for the mods as well. The amount of people that joined and started the lovely train must not have been expected either, an ability for mods to lock threads rather than outright deleting them is a choice that could be added
I'm so happy to see this! Thank you, Furvilla team!
I would love to be a moderator. Gives me more to do in the game. Where do I apply?
