Im not entirely sure why but most of the time there is no admins checking on the chat. I think it might be a good idea just to get a few more.

I agree.

I think a way to decrease meaningless messages and give opportunities for decent conversations is to increase how many messages nonmembers can send per minute and add more moderators. Also when I'm on my alts I notice the message limit thing is extremely glitchy. Around 10:00PM - 2:00AM PST is when I notice a severe lack of mods as well.

Just because admins aren't talking constantly, for example me, that does not mean that they are online and lurking around. Recently, I have just quit talking and banned anybody who spammed 5 messages instantly, etc. Not all admins have their full attention on the chat 100% of the time, some may be multitasking, which is the best to do in alt situations to keep you from going mad.

Indeed. I've started banning more excessive abuse of the chat without warning as well. It's frankly a waste of time to tell people to stop when they continue again later when they think I've gone or just carry on instantly after I tell them not to.

Anyone breaking the rules without at least 1 game on their account gets no mercy.

Yep. I've definitely been so rarely using one hour bans cause it's useless.

Any word on if I can make an app yet?
It's been a month or two without many appearances from mods on during the week where I am most active.
I could easily cover this time period myself.

@unwarned bans:
Doesn't this seem to be counterintuitive? A lot of gamers may not even be aware of a rule system in place as its posted nowhere prior. An actual terms and conditions guideline to the global could probably be a good solution to removing a good 30 percent of the problem.

Pft. Please, pumu. They are fully aware of what they are doing. It's like a grown man and a cactus. You don't have to tell him not to touch the cactus, it's common sense.

I don't give unwarned bans for caps locking or minor spam like saying your code 5 times over, I give it for behaviour that is so obviously malicious they know they're doing something wrong.

They know what they're doing yet what they're doing could be considered wrong?
Logic.

@skele

Ok that makes much more sense.

I would be interested in joining the moderator team. I'm fairly active and believe to be fit for the job. I'm a leader in Team Zenith and know how to conduct myself well, and have been an Stick Empires member for over 2 years now. I have recommendations from IHATETHISNAME, WyzDM, and a fair amount of other moderators. I sent an email and was told to apply here. Thanks for your time.

As a formal app in advance,

I am Pumu
An SE player that started the game and forum in the month of December of 2012. I believe I have Progressively made myself a part of this community and have come to respect my fellow peers here. I am applying to contribute as merely an enforcer in the cleanliness and order that the global chat has the potential to be. I am a devils advocate at heart and try me best to see all view points in any issue or confrontation. I put aside my own personal beliefs to get a perfect stance on any problem that users may face with one another or even with myself. This quality I believe every person in an authortative role should embody. Again, I come only seeking to contribute to the society I've come to know. I also want to Thank you in advance for your time.

All the best, Pumu.

The mods are never on anyway and se attarcts a young audience anyway why do we need more mods? It will only confuse the situation
