This has needed to be Updated Here is what Savant put down in her blog. We should pay attention to this.
How to become an admin (not chat room moderator, or game master – those are listed below):
1. Send Hullbreach or SavantInamorata an sdk mail, if you cannot because you are not on the friend list, simply add them as “friends†and they will add you as well.
2. In the request please tell us which type of admin you would like to be, and why you would like this position, also include your age and time zone.
Please note that adminships are given out based on what is needed at the time. Please don’t beg for adminship, this will only make your chances of becoming an admin less. Also, please do not expect a reply to your “admin request.†Thank you.
Chat Room Moderators-
How to become one:
1. Do NOT ask an overlord, we assume you want to be a chat room moderator already, asking simply decreases your chances.
2. Be in the chat rooms frequently.
3. Be polite, friendly, respectful, and helpful. Basically impress us.
Your Behavior:
1. You must be on at least 5 hours a week.
2. No cussing, period.
3. You may express your opinions, but please do not viciously attack others.
4. No cybering, not even in pms.
5. You may recommend others for chat room adminship by clicking the “Recommend for chat room adminship†box in their profiles. (Coming Soon)
Banning:
1. Give one warning first, before a ban, with these exceptions, they mean ban right away:
- Linking adult web sites
- Linking adult content photos
- Death threats
2. Reasons for warning/banning:
- Cussing, this includes acronyms)
- Vicious attacks against another member
- Cybering in the general chats (Note, when it comes to cybering in pms you may use your own discretion)
- Spamming, this means repetitive use of commands, typing in all caps or repeating the same or similar words over and over again
3. When you ban someone please give a reason why, if you ban anyone without giving a reason, they will be unbanned.
If you abuse your admin powers, and we find any of you cursing, a little slip up here and there is ok, but I mean deliberately changing a word so it can be read without being starred, One of us (mean the overlords) will review the incident, and decide from there.
Game Masters-
How to become one:
1. Send either HullBreach or SavantInamorata an admin request via sdk mail, if you cannot because you are not on the friend list, simply add them as “friends†and they will add you as well.
- Please include: Your age, What time zone you are in, What times you would most likely host games, What type of trivia categories you would host
Game Rules-
1. There will be 2 types of games, I expect every game admin to adhere to this:
- Big Game, at least 20 questions, winner gets 3 winner points, 2nd place gets 2 winner points, and 3rd place gets 1 winner point.
- Little Game, 10 questions, no more, no less. Winner gets 1 winner point, 2nd and 3rd place get nothing.
2. Games must have a coherent theme.
- Examples of what is acceptable: Video Game Trivia, Geography, TV Show Trivia, Science & Nature, Pokemon Trivia, Acronyms
- What we do NOT want to see is: Random Questions, SDK Trivia (like who is HB’s wife?), Questions that a 3 year old could answer (what heats up the Earth?)
Your Behavior:
1. If your name appears on the chat room ban list, your game master adminship will be stripped away. You may contest the ban to an overlord, and it will be looked into.
2. You must host a minimum of 3 games per week.
