With a season that, to this point anyway, has fallen short of expectations… we have been assessing our culture and approach to moderation.
People say RamsONDEMAND is a homer board and we embrace that! We love our team. Nobody shits on our team! Nobody.
Plus… this is supposed to be fun, so let’s make sure our community is set up to be just that.
With PrimeTime stepping away, and no return planned despite our efforts, we are adding 2 moderators to RamsONDEMAND; @RhodyRams and @Dodgersrf
Rhody has been a part time bookie and we’ve had him on our team in the background for many years. He was unable to join our moderation team until recently. We are happy he has changed his mind!
Dodgers too has been working with us informally since 2016 to join the Admin team. He was our #2 choice when we added @mojo. LOL in all seriousness we go that far back but elected to add just one at that time… mojo just so happened to be someone we knew since grade school.
Both Rhody and Dodgers share the same cultural vision we strive to cultivate at ROD. They are here to have fun.
Not knowing how these announcements might be interpreted, we don’t “pick favorite members” to be moderators... we start down these roads many years in advance getting people involved with ROD. Done right, you don’t notice a difference from member to moderator.
With these changes, we have also added a “nudge based” warning system. This 1pt warning is our approach to steering the culture where we need it. You may see an increased use of that feature in the coming weeks. These warnings will not receive a response from moderation. They are steering in nature. If you receive one, we are steering... So, steer and move on.
Thank you, everyone!
Cheers, CGI and your Admin Team
