YCM Staff + Section Breakdown


Flash Flyer - Sakura

Recommended Posts

Due to how the moderator groups work here, they are set to show as being in charge of "all forums", or letting us handle things site-wide instead of being constrained to our assigned areas. Therefore, the Forum Team link at the bottom of the page isn't very helpful in mentioning what sections a moderator is responsible for.

 

This thread is intended to give you more specifics.

 

Beneath our names are the sections we are responsible for.

 

Please note that this is subject to be updated at any time as staff members are reassigned sections and/or are promoted, demoted and so forth. 

 

Super Moderators

 

Flame Dragon

 

Other TCG, Other TCG Decks, Video Games

 

Moderators

 

Broke. N

 

Yugioh TCG, Banlists/Theory, Yugioh Decks

 

CowCow

 

Black

 

Tormented

 

Junior Moderators

As of today, 12/5/2014, Night will be in charge of the News section in addition to Comments & Suggestions.

I will be in charge of the Introductions and Questions & Answers sections.

 

(This was discussed earlier, given these sections have lacked an active mod for them since the former staff in charge of them are long gone.)

Striker has been promoted to Junior Moderator of the Custom Cards section.

 

Also, until Night and Aix get their names swapped back; just remember that Aix = Night, and Night = Aix.

In no way did Night get himself demoted; nor did Aix with a promotion.

 

(Otherwise, you can tell by their signatures)

 

.Rai and I are back to normal.

Rai has been noted as the official mod of Music, effective today.

(Asked him earlier if he wanted to make it official)

 

So yeah, at present, all known sections have at least one staff member in charge of everything.

 

----

A reminder that we can do mod stuff out of our sections, but the sections our names are listed to are the ones under our watch.

Two changes in staff members:

 

1. Gadjiltron is the new acting 3rd CC mod, however he is on a trial period [for a month] with restricted powers (hence why his group says Junior Moderators as opposed to the standard Moderator group like the rest of us have). He has basic moderator powers (warn/ban members, open/lock/sticky threads, etc), but nothing linked to the ACP (so no name/group changes or profile music).  

 

If he gives you an order in CC (or any section) within reason, you must do what he tells you.

 

Depending on the circumstances after this period ends (which mostly involve his academic situation), he'll either be promoted to Moderator proper and given full mod powers (in which case his group will just read Moderators) or returned to a regular member. 

 

(The staff has been discussing this for some time)

 

 

2. Koko has officially been resigned to the TCG section as a whole; meaning that she will help evilfusion manage the regular areas (Discussion, Banlists/Theory and Decks), in addition to assisting Flame Dragon and Nai with the Other TCG areas as deemed necessary.

Already announced this in that thread in Comments & Suggestions, but Smear and Black have both been promoted to Junior Moderator. Like with Gadjiltron, their trial period expires in a month. 

 

Smear will give Roxas some help in the Anime/Manga and Movies/TV Shows forums (officially); still need to work out if he can help Night with GFX. 

 

Black is the new 4th CC moderator and will be helping me and Gadjiltron to run the section. (Zextra is still here though).

 

----

By the way, you two, both your user groups are still existent (and you'll retain ownership of them even after you get promoted to mod proper).

You guys know about Aix and Koko resigning, so....

 

That being said, evilfusion mentioned in Black's resignation thread that his demotion has been made official (though accelerated a week). Roxas has also been removed due to circumstances. 

 

====

At this time, we are not going to replace them (or the other two who have resigned); least for the time being. When more changes are made, this will be updated.

Bree officially removed from mod duties. 

Most of you probably remember that she announced her resignation in status about 3 weeks ago due to personal reasons; it's been done. 

 

As mentioned above, there are no plans on replacing any mods that have resigned/been dismissed at this time. When the time comes, we'll let you know.

Most of you knew that Nai planned on resigning due to issues, but it has been done at this point. 

Rai was demoted due to inactivity / lack of involvement in current issues. 

Zai promoted to moderator proper, and will be taking over Nai's post as the Fanfic/RP moderator (in addition to his PR duties).

 

There are some other things that will be mentioned concerning Zai's role on this team later on, in addition to other possible considerations. If you have any concerns about those, please direct them to the discussion threads as they appear.

If you read through Dad's latest status and his remarks in the News thread, he's resigning due to real life (not because of anything he's done). In the future, he may return. 

 

In the meantime, Yui has been promoted to Junior Moderator to succeed him. Like the other mod candidates, his trial period lasts for a month, at which time he will either be promoted to full moderator or returned to regular status. 

 

Please treat him with respect; thank you.

Some changes:

 

Yui got promoted to full moderator (and as such, goes off moderator parking duty and can do big things like name changes/profile music/group stuff). So yeah, congrats. 

 

(Just happened to be on the day I mark three years on the force.)

 

====

There is an announcement concerning another mod resigning that will be addressed at a later time once details are worked out. Please refrain from suggesting moderator candidates at this time; we will let you know if the slots will open and/or if replacements are to be considered.

Gadjiltron has announced his resignation as a moderator due to circumstances pertaining to his real-life job. 

 

(evil or Flame will get to his demotion at a later time)

 

As mentioned in the previous post, do not start suggesting candidates until one of the staff members makes a thread in C/S to announce choices and/or open it up to you all to suggest your own. When the need arises, we will let you know.

You guys already know this from his resignation thread, but evilfusion has turned in his badge (resigned). At this time, there are no plans to replace evilfusion either as a TCG moderator or Super Moderator in general. 

 

Flame Dragon will take up the rest of TCG in the meanwhile.

 

As usual, we shall let you know if the need for either of them arises (or if one of the existing mods is appointed to replace evil as the 3rd Super). Please don't make threads/statuses about the matter. 

 

 

Thank you.

Remember the time we said Dad would come back if time permitted? Yeah, now it's time. 
As usual, Dad's going to be starting off as Junior for a while, then have Flame or another Super bump him up later on. 
 
Nothing much has changed, except him helping Yui out in General and Miscellaneous (with the subsections) like he was already doing in the past. 
 
So....

After consideration of the candidates, we have chosen Broke. N to succeed evilfusion as the Yugioh TCG moderator. As usual for new candidates, he is on a 1-month probation and will have his performance evaluated at the end. 

 

Please respect any orders he gives you in the section and elsewhere.

You were given notice of this in the mod transparency thread.

As announced in the mod transparency thread, Yui resigned his position for personal reasons. Right now, this means Dad will be resuming sole modship of General/Miscellaneous. 

 

His demotion has already been handled at this time. 

 

====

 

If there are other developments with moderator appointments / resignations, they will be announced as they come.

Smear has been properly demoted due to his resignation. 

 

At this time, Anime/Manga and Literature/Movies currently do not have an active moderator. Though, if the new staff members wish to take on these sections (despite their activity) upon being selected and promoted properly after this election, please let us know. 

 

EDIT: Also yeah, Music is open for anyone who wants it specifically.

Broke. N moved off trial period and promoted to full moderator, so this technically means he can now do name changes, profile favors and some other stuff now. 

 

=====

There will be more updates to this thread in the coming days, which pertains to promotion of the new staff members and any potential changes within the existing staff.

CowCow and Black promoted to Junior Moderators. 

 

As standard, they shall go through the usual trial period to see how they work out, and if they can be promoted to full moderator. In terms of their member groups, they will retain ownership of them and revert to these should they resign.

 

====

So yeah, please show them respect and listen to any orders they may give you within reason.

Tormented promoted to moderator proper (or more technically, he's officially a mod so he isn't confusing newer members with his pseudo-admin title). He'll still have access to the ACP to continue making changes to the site, but now will have a hand in forum decisions. 

 

The trial period is technically redundant at this point, considering he already has access to the general mod functions and he's generally been doing a good job with handling updates.

 

====

So yeah, welcome to the team. 

 

(For most of you, it's already March 1st so...)
