As the votes are right now, does this mean that we can't post gifs in reply to a post else now or does that not count under memes / shitposting?
I'm going to edit this second part in, hoping that people will not reply to my question about gifs before I post this edit:
I may be wrong on this, but I don't really see any Global Moderators around the forums that much. I think it would be great to have more global moderators who you know are mature and can moderate the forum properly. Again, I may be wrong on this but I think most Global Moderators are inactive and you should re-elect new Global Moderators who come onto the forums regularly so that we have some quote-on-quote "actual moderation"
We shouldnt split a small community into two sites (jumpacademy.tf and jump.tf)
If we're going to put the community together like this, then here's some more evidence that we need some more Global Moderators here. We can only predict that there will be a lot of people who will abuse the system and shitpost / meme anywhere by any means possibly and then inevitably get banned, like cody and mireal. But to make sure we can keep on top of all this, since the Jump Academy group has 27 thousand members, there's sure to be at least ten or more shitposters, knowing the community at the state it is in (as previously mentioned by Vexon here:
Well I mean....I feel like meming has sadly become a part of the community, and it's almost what keeps it alive in a sense.
From what this quote implies, the only reason the community is alive (In Vexon's opinion) is because of memes and shitposters. I do admit that I once was a shitposter, but now that I have stopped, I can stop think about my actions and how we can prevent shitposting going any further then I took it. I think for what the community is at the moment, the levels of shitposting that I produced should be properly the maximum and anything beyond that can be considered going too far. The reason that I think that going beyond what I did as a shitposter is considered too far is because cody got banned for shitposting and memes and john stated that it was higher shitposting levels then me, which (in what I think) implies that the highest shitposting can go before someone gets a ban from the website is what I did. Another example of shitposting and taking it too far is mireal when he changed the groups, but we can afford to go over that as it was likely a mistake and will probably never happen again (I can admit I also did some stuff during the security breath time peroid, but I was little knowledged at the time and didn't really understand the interface and how it was meant to be to admins only. In addition to this, I tried to fix everything that mireal did, but he kept reverting what I was trying to restore to its original state, this kept ggoing and john eventually banned him. After the incident, I talked to john about it and we cleared it up)
I think we should have a vote which is from 10 people Rokio and John think that would be suitable for the role as Global Moderator and choose 5 from the 10 they choose to moderate the forums. This could only really be the case really if we're going to put both the Jump Academy and jump.tf together, as Vexon mentioned. We could do the same thing for what the forums are like now. 5 people from the choice of Rokio and John and select 1 or 2 to be a Global Moderator.
Honestly, I may be going too far into this idea of having more moderators and having more members and what would happen in an extreme scenario, but I think it would be a good thing to take into account just in case. You can glance over this if you want, but there's always that small possibility that it could happen. I also want to add that I don't mean to offend any of the Global Moderators when I write this.
