Hello,
This is not a large problem or a recurring one as far as I have seen. Anyone else chime in if I am wrong there. It has come to my attention that threads are being locked by moderators. Posts are also being deleted, threads moved... etc. I was under the impression that these tasks were to be handled by Super Moderators and above. This is to avoid senseless and overly frequent forum moderation, as our staff is fairly large.
Take this thread for example: http://www.kkkgaming.com/showthread.php?t=3252
I see no reason to lock the thread until the proper people have been contacted or those people have responded. In fact, seeing as how there were more than a few members present when the ban was made, more input could be helpful.
The people responsible for locking this thread, if it were up to me, would be Admins or Pwnsauce. Seeing as how those are the ones on which the ban responsibility falls.
I vaguely remember a few other cases like this. I just shrugged them off because they really don't affect me. I have said what I have to say. I was just wondering if this is an issue that should be addressed concretely. As in "these are your responsibilities and privelages." Obviously we want a staff that isn't too restrained by regulation, but I think some more specific and straightforward rules are in order here.
Of course, I am also partially expecting to be told that Mods do have the rights and responsibilities to lock threads and all the other things I mentioned. I am just ignorant of the state of affairs currently.
