I would qualify this to "delete or edit"

We are reserving banning to admins only on a temporary basis until everyone gets used to the new rules. It's the easiest way to avoid members being banned and reinstated which would undermine the mods.

· Welcome new members
· Be polite and gentle especially with the Mod hat on.
· Avoid sarcasm and irony while moderating threads or users
· Think carefully about your actions.
· Show up on suspicious threads and make clear you're watching.
· Ask users to stay on topic. (use PMs)
· Move off topic discussion to another thread, if not already available create it.
· stay in contact with other moderators.
· gather user feedback and suggestion and forward them to the administrators
· try to avoid moderating threads you participate in on your own, call other moderators for help and ask them about their opinion. |
All very good suggestions
