My greatest battles are fought not over something you don't like about the Network, but over misinformation. I want as many of you as possible to have the correct information - because then, if you genuinely hate it, I have valuable feedback for the development team! Of course, some misinformation is more harmful than others.
I have become aware of a couple of situations where a member has posed as a member of staff, or as a soon-to-be member of staff, and used that as leverage over other members. I hope that this does not extend beyond the handful of instances I know have transpired. So what can I do to combat this? N4G and the NewsBoiler are huge communities, and try as we might there's just no effective way to get *everyone* to see the information I think they need to see, but here goes…
User roles are visible. If you visit a member's profile you will see at the top whether they are an Admin, Site Manager, Moderator, Contributor, Trainee or Member. You can view staff for the entire network here: http://forums.n4g.com/tm.as...
You know what roles aren't listed there or on member profiles? Possible Future Moderator, Maybe Admin, Someday Staffer. You know why? Because something that hasn't happened yet - and may never happen - is not helpful. Don't pretend to be a Moderator (you will be banned), don't tell people you're "practically" a Moderator (if you're saying that, you probably aren't), and for everyone else - N4G is user-driven, and time and again it has been proven that this means more than users submitting news. It means helpful regulars offering advice, tips and helping less informed members get the info they need and find the people they want to ask a question of. So if you really do want to become a Moderator, be helpful in those ways (and check out http://n4g.com/user/blogpos... ).
Is Marvel Rivals headed to other platforms outside of PC? NetEase mentions they are exploring the idea but deleted any mention of it.
An MTX marvel game not going to consoles would eat massively into their profits. So, you know, it will go there. Or they're dumb. The game is purely about MTX.
The Outerhaven writes: During PAX East 2024, The Outerhaven stopped by the Octosoft to speak with one of the developers for Renaine and also get some hands-on of the game.
IGN: "If our two-hour hands-on preview is any indication of the rest of the game, then Visions of Mana's fresh take on battle and class systems not only gives it the potential to meet the success of the originals but possibly even the chance to surpass them."
How about you get your current staff to not just butcher specific links from specific sites. Half of the posts I see on N4G aren't from the original source, yet they never get corrected, seems a certain few sites/users the mods have it in for.
Sort that out, way more important than if some idiot wants to believe someone is staff or not.
Wait, I didn't see you list my official title of Permanent Troll... what up?
Anyway, more to the point. thanks for posting this Cat. I think many people need a bit of a reminder of this every once in a while.
P.S. Great use of Spy vs Spy image :)
yap anyone who says their a mod isn't a mod, its like being cool. Cool kids never have to say their cool they just are
OMG.. you can see user roles?
and..
Cat's an admin?
Color me surprised.
Here I thought I was running the site for the past 4-5 years -.-
(de-bubbles the mods and admins)
TAKE THAT HAH!
Being me I had to check out my profile. You know what? Absolutely nothing about me being "A Douchebag in waiting". I was amazed. Seems strange but there ya go. I just Can't work it out.
