Question

I think Ambassadors should have more privileges.

Answer 1

1. Be able to warn(not ban)

2. Be able to close posts(not delete)

Answer 2

Those are the two I think they should have..

Answer 3

i think so to but, some will abuse the power

Answer 4

Um, no..if the Ambassadors are chosen by OS, then they would make sure they're worthy to wield such power :P

Answer 5

then talk to preetha lol

Answer 6

I would agree but ambi's aren't mods that would be a mods job and warnings still go on records im thinking if you have an outstanding amount there would be a problem thats why maybe we should just leave it at mods having power.Ambi's are only supposed to welcome people and be nice :) they can a;ways pm users to take their post down or something and then tell a mod when they come online.And last but not least AMBI'S ARE NOT MODS! :)

Answer 7

I totally agree with you @pooja195
Ambi's do get less priviledges because some are younger, and less expirienced therefore, yeah "AMBI'S ARE NOT MODS!" :3

Answer 8

I also agree with @pooja195 cause she's smart and stuffs and ambis can still enforce the rules, just not to the extent of mods. It's all fine, and just a different role than mods.

Yes, but I think they make Ambassadors too much like regular users.

Answer 10

well... i mean, yeah i guess @iGreen but, u can't make them TOO different from users because then its harder for them to welcome new users since they are somewhat superior...understand?

Answer 11

. . .

No..that doesn't make any sense..

Answer 12

How is being superior to them limit their ability to Welcome new users?

Answer 13

Moderators still welcome users, and they are much superior over them.

Answer 14

~sigh~ meh

Answer 15

xD

Answer 16

'just not to the extent of mods'

Note I said 'not ban' and 'not delete' in parenthesis..those are reserved only for Mods..

Answer 18

So it's still 'not to the extent of mods'

Answer 19

Wouldnt that still be the same as moderating?

Answer 20

No, I believe it isn't

Answer 21

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I thought that ambi's had those priviledges! No, i totally do agree that they should be able to warn (not ban)... about the question closing thing, that should be left to the mods.. (in my opinion) since it is considered moderating

Answer 22

But mods send official warnings and stuff. Ambis can still 'warn' abusive users with words and stuff. They have some type of standing or authority on this site.

Answer 23

I would say it is because ambi's are to welcome people and be nice they can stop things without using harsh actions

Answer 24

If ambi's had that type of power they would think they're a mod so i would disagree with this

Though it's the same as a regular user..I can still send messages to people.

Answer 26

But a regular user, like me, theoretically doesn't have the rank or standing as an ambi.

Answer 27

mhmhhhm ^^

Answer 28

Is it really nessessary for ambi's to have power its not really a big deal the job of an ambi is to be nice and WELCOME PEOPLE not to close questions and warn people

Answer 30

That's the job OS assigned to them, so yes..of course..this would just be adding things on. It's like 'Qualified Helpers' there'll be a paid version of OS, but everything now will still be the same.

Answer 31

I said something about this on my other account

Answer 32

Amazing ideas. @iGreen
I totally agree.

Answer 33

i agree with @iGreen b.c regular members can welcome new users and so can mods and ambi's. It would be great for ambis to get privileges on warning someone and after that warning, tell a mod you warned the person an they will go on for there.

Answer 34

@iGreen is there a problem with ambis being like regular users? You seem to like the idea that ambis should have a higher social status with some abilities that mods have...

Answer 35

Ambassadors are trained. I think it would be smart to give a bit of power to the people who know how to use it.

Answer 36

Oh ok, I get it.

Answer 37

yea what @confluxepic said

Answer 38

People be thinking they know everything...

Answer 39

what do you mean by that @King.Void.

Answer 40

I'm talking about @EclipsedStar

Answer 41

Lol http://prntscr.com/69emv4 <--- that's why I made that comment earlier XD

Answer 42

I'm not even going for ambi, ha!

Answer 43

didn't u apply?^^

Answer 44

@confluxepic their still underage remember mods have the rights to do what they do because they are old enough and understand ambi's go through training and all but not like mods do I disagree with this idea

Answer 45

I took that into consideration already. @pooja195

Answer 46

I could have worded that better.

Answer 47

I already took that into consideration.

Um..if Ambassadors are like normal users, there's no point in making Ambassadors..

Answer 49

true^

Answer 50

Plus, like @confluxepic said, they're trained..they're not just some random people OS picks..

Answer 51

I was an ambi and its special to have an A it made me feel like a leader and a representative of OS is that not enough?Do they really need power?

Answer 52

Oh btw is this true? I didn't know this http://prntscr.com/69evcw

Answer 53

It's true. @EclipsedStar

Answer 54

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Answer 55

But @girlover didn't, and their excuse was 90 days total on OS, not days studied.

Answer 56

@EclipsedStar Do you think you have at least 90 days on OS? :P

Answer 57

Nope! XD

Answer 58

Oh, that's too bad..I didn't hear them say anything about it this year though.

Answer 59

She has less than 50.

Answer 60

LOL!!!!

Answer 61

@iGreen I had a lot more than 90 days studied and 90 days on openstudy before i became an ambie

Answer 62

And i was ambi before all of u i used to think we needed power we dont

Answer 63

Having the A by my name is a sign that I am looked up to but as to welcome and be nice to people and answer any questions they might have. Having the A by my name just lets people, new people, know that we are trusted users just like any common user.

Answer 64

^ This. I'm basically saying you already have some power and authority, given the A mark. You're different than a regular user.
