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!
Honestly ive been to many online communities and ive never seen such a fast mod response that gathered opinion this well
gonna be honest--didn't expect an apology at all. Taking back my "#worsethanlioden" insult since they would flat-out ignore the complaints.
Thanks so much for acknowledging and owning up to mistakes made! It shows that the MOD team is accountable and ready to be flexible for their userbase.
Hi there! I was a mod/news editor on Teripets.com back in the day. I'lkl be sending y'all a message, I'd love to help out with the team and see this place grow into a warm and welcoming community! :)
thank you for such a quick response to the issue! i couldnt be happier to see this honestly... best of luck to you all and have a good day
Thanks for the update! Last night was pretty dang bad and I felt really bad for the mods who could do nothing but delete topics left and right in an attempt to keep the peace, which then turned around and backfired. I've been a mod for quite a few things before and know it's kind of a thankless job where one tiny mistake can get you hated for months (hence why I'm not going to apply, it's way too much stress) and as such I hope you guys are able to get some really good mods who will be able to keep the peace and spirits high!
Apology accepted~ Hopefully the results of the mod-search are great.
thank you for the apology!
You guys are doing a great job. i hope everything get sorted out as soon as possible!
Good to see you taking responsibility! Hope this site gets better and continues for a long time ^_^
