Hello everyone!
I’d just like to give a filler update, nothing maaaassive, but at least it’s something, and something you all stress about here on tengaged. #Logistics. Here are some things I’ve come up with to detect and combat common logistics issues on tengaged.
On Sunday I will post a screenshot of the first page of code that is going down tomorrow with our programmer. Stay tuned!!
First things first. PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD MARY. Respond to Kaylabby ’s mail regarding #stage8teen , because we need this information to be able to determine the budget moving forward. The target is 250 responses, we’re currently at 45! Any upgrades to the website will cost money and we need to know what we’re dealing with. I’d like to upgrade the server, and host it myself, so I don’t have to go through a company like Amazon.
Moderation;
Moderation is going to have several accounts on stage8teen, all specializing in a part of the website. Each account will have a different tool to help make moderating easier for them. I.e. @Blogs_Moderation will have a special tab that will allow the moderator to see every single blog that was posted since their last log in, and they will be logging in on a daily basis, checking this special tab, and reading all the blogs, scanning for rule breakers.
Moderator Bias;
Moderation has been a huge issue on tengaged, due to the fact that moderators are playing in the games as well. I’ve found two people that I know for sure don’t know ANY of you hooligans. Eventually, there will be more.
Cheating in Comps;
Instead of trying to come up with a program to detect cheating. I’ve come up with a way to fairly pinpoint the cheaters by hand. Much like @Blogs_Moderation, @Games_Moderation will have a special tab on their account, allowing them to see every game played in the time since their last log in, and every game will be scanned over, and all the comp scores will be listed. For the first 10 weeks of the website, we will not serve out any bans, but instead, make a spreadsheet with all of the comp scores, and figure out an average score, any outliars to the data set will be flagged, once a player gets 3 flags, they will be punished for cheating, but may appeal for a repeal.
