seems like you are missing something....

those are the reports you can see. not the ones that have yet to be processed

The true numbers are fairly similar; I just totalled them. I'd post them, but not sure if i'm allowed.

[fred]

Lets not post staff information at the moment. I already have a plan in place for the future.

why nat. the shittiness should indeeed be revealled!

[Orpz]

good werk every1!!!!!

[fred]

It's not really for the public to know until we release it publicly. Staff information stays with staff. We deal with things discretely as any site should do.

yeha you guys just dont do shit and hide it and make it seem like you're so great?

[fred]

No information is going out about the current situations. That's all there is to it. This is how it is always suppose to be dealt with.

[Bunny]

but it doesnt get dealt with you. clearly. yu guys dont do anything.you don't fix the sotd, dont do reports, just dick around infracting people for breathin. If you guys can do anything atleast remove sotd.

[Orpz]

needs a regime takeover

[fred]

Rev is in charge of updates. Take that to him, Bunny. Also: Infractions are a sectional mod/Smod duty. Doesn't really apply to keeper situations and I'm not about to deal with the infraction thing as that's not my issue to deal with.

how much does an audience with DR cost exactly?

[fred]

A fortune. I can't even get one with him :P

but isnt it also a requirement of smods to guide keepers and make sure their up to par. Instead of banning/infracting everyone for nothing, why not focus on reports cuz they're a lot more important and effect more people.

[Orpz]

revive circlejerk too

You seem to believe that I've been active on the forums. I've been on hiatus from duty since October. :P

[Ensley1121]

I'm telling you, Fred, I could have knocked out like 10 reports just since asking for Keeper status last night!

[powerofdeath]

I'm telling you, Fred, I could have knocked out like 10 reports just since asking for Keeper status last night!

I seen many new keepers burn out many reports once they become a keeper. After a while, they realize how much work it is and they stopped doing them.

[Mateo]

which is when they should be fired and new ones hired

[fred]

It's okay. We'll get to the hiring process when we're ready to. It's not something we rush into quickly.

I'm going to sleep soon btw so .. dont be looking for a lot more posts from me.

[Aj8oh8]

<3, I have a feeling this keeper process rapes people in their sleep... How scary.

*begins round of applause*

[Ensley1121]

Exactly. I think I could be more help knocking out 30 reports and then burning out than some of these other keepers that simply quit lol.

[Bunny]

i know i don't mean you specifically. i mean all of you. but if you guys are actively attempting to do something about it thats better than nothing.

[Mateo]

Exactly. I think I could be more help knocking out 30 reports and then burning out than some of these other keepers that simply quit lol.

agreeed. not sure if youve already done this in ur application but post a replay of a mafia game with only you in the lobby (host a game then start it, dont make it public) so that your scid can be looked up and confirmed

[Aj8oh8]

@mateo
Can I secretly do that too. :3 lol

[Mateo]

it wouldn't hurt, unless they recognize you from the game they will prolly ask you to

[Ensley1121]

Is there a specific application for me to complete? Because I've done nothing like that...

[Orpz]

How much have u donated:
how much more?:

[Ensley1121]

[Mateo]

[Ensley1121]

Seriously is there something in particular I need to do to review reports?

[powerofdeath]

You will get your training if you do get accepted as a keeper. Don't worry.

[Aj8oh8]

You will get your training if you do get accepted as a keeper. Don't worry.

I guess, if I get accepted, Ensley1121 will become my new competition. :3



or they'll do a terrible job and I come out on top :P

[st.rage]

I would like to donate -$100000

[Aj8oh8]

I would like to donate -$100000

*tsk tsk tsk*

Are you applying for keeper too?
Like they say,
"Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer,"
:3

[Mugy]

If you have posted a request indicating your interest in becoming a keeper( in the answer hall), then you just need to wait until we get things sorted. If we need anything extra, we'll ask.

[kyle1234513]

just saying, each report takes about 20mins to do. so if you wanted to do 30 reports it would take aprox 10hours to do. this is assuming you have a cut and dry case and nothing else happened besides the one offense, ie someone was afk all game and caused a voting block. sometimes there are additional people you need to add in because they were left out, ie adjacent players who doc circled eachother night one, but the reporter didnt obviously see it. without carefully going over the replay you miss a lot of things. and if the replay in question is really bad and full of trolls and gamethrowers the report could take as long as 45minutes to just watch it and label who does what and whos working with who.

and @ mateo, i have done reports since then, you just cant see them yet.

nah, its not scary, its just time consuming is all, theres a very... grid like method of doing it and the report always gets done accurately.

[Damus_Graves]

All you do is.post in answer hall that you woukd like to be a keeper. Post a replay of yourself playing mafia, to ensure identity, amd we will get back.to you should you be accepted.
Fair warning: reports are very difficult to.drive
Thru. And.they can become.time.consuming. Make sure.you havea few.minutesto an.hour to do good reports

Omg! I love your profile picture :D!

On topic: Alright, I did that, so it should be fun, haha

[Bruno]

Hey, I just joined the site, and this is crazy, but I want in-game mod, so Keeper me maybe?

The problem with "firing" Keepers is that they aren't paid.

When they burn out from doing reports, they've essentially already quit. It takes a while to train new people up on what to look for, and bringing on someone who fucks up reports is a hell of a lot worse than having a backlog. Trust me; I've had to deal with Landstander. Redoing reports wastes 20-45 minutes for TWO people instead of one, and causes drama in staff. A backlog that slowly gets worked through by experienced eyes is better than handing off reports to people who are untrained/unmotivated.

Firing and hiring is great in the real world of paid jobs, but Keepers are basically unpaid interns. It's tough to motivate someone who doesn't get paid. The only real motivation is in-game powers, which (when people aren't trained) can lead to WAY worse of problems than a backlog of reports.
