Negative Moderator Experience (In-Game Mod Policy Discussion Thread)

[Alexa_Darkness]

Being a Moderator can be very stressful, and we have to remember they are all volunteers, players like us just trying to make the game better.  

Maybe it would be helpful if Mods if they could practice the 3 strike rule for minor offences, with each strike judged by a different Mod.  Commit 3 offences, and the 3rd Judge will dish out the punishment.  Because each Moderator is unique, with different values & views, the 3 strike rule would be fairer.

Also, I still don't understand why Send the Offender to Jail feature is not used more.  And can players receiving punishment be confined to a single server..?  Or at least be banned from joining the high volume servers.

The Ignore function however does not stop a ignored player from saying stuff in public chat.  The problem with Ignore, is that if a ignore player sees you in public, they can still send speech bubble messages to you, and of course chat to all your surrounding friends.  
So maybe there should be a 2nd level of Ignore, that makes the ignored player invisible & visa versa.   

At present an ignored player can be on a server of 100 players, 90 of those players may have ignored them, so can still hang on in a crowd.  But if those 90 players were invisible, they would soon start to feel lonely.  Imagine going to crowded Wild West on Beaver Bash, and the only person you can see is yourself & a Mod.  Not a very enjoyable game.  
But Ignores can be reversed, so these players can be given a 2nd chance.
