Appealing to authority is a logical fallacy. The active users elects, at will, people to enforce Sansarian law, but the law itself is yours, and the actions taken are public. If you find the authority being unjust, review their action and ask for them to be educated. Nobody is above you, except law, logic, and reason, and the kindness of our platform.
A moderator is 2 employees and 2 active users voted on by verified active users with one vote through sansar official discord. Known and unknown alts voting is not allowed. Sansar must provide a list of staff members that don't mind moderating.The list has to be long enough to allow for a choice 5 at minimum to vote on. A helper is not a moderator
serve a 3 month term(subject to change if the community feels they are good at moderating)
Sansar Users that are voteda moderator if they cannot fulfill there moderating duty for reason of taking break from sansar or quitting they must make notification they do not want the job anymore and replaced.
Moderator should keep the neutral ground balance, and act according to the policies. If needing to act alone every moderation must be done with proper documentation and careful attention. Notify the other moderators immediately. In general don't intimidate, dont bird Dog(watching over every user waiting for them to need moderation). Let the flow and peoples fun always be the priority. You are a User/Staff Member first and moderator second
Punishment from moderation does not have to go the extreme of a ban. It could be a first a verbal conversation(has to be documented and public). Communications discord private message, email, sansar private message, and possibly needing to be video recorded. User needs to know he is being moderated in these communications. User cannot abuse moderator because they are doing official moderation duty. Accused user should defend their actions during moderation from communication. Moderation does not have to lead to temporary or permanent ban. Just a conversation on accusation
This is a good conversation but it needs some adjustment to the wording. Would you mind turning it into an issue in GitHub and someone will make a PR for you to approve?
Change to who are the moderators of sansar
