Question

can we please make to be mods for like 14 toos :( because 18 is not fair to anothers v-v i am only saying this because i have a lot off years to be 18 and only for people who can handle being a mod

Answer 1

I think it would be silly to have 14 year old mods. Some people don't know what to do with that kind of power, so people would be getting sus'd left and right for no real reason. Plus it could get OS in trouble.

Answer 2

Mods must be 18+ for legal reasons

Answer 3

^ that is what I thought

Answer 4

T-T i have like 18 years for be a 18 and i am saying only for the people who can raellly handle it like a test to see if they can

Answer 5

Nope, mods have to be 18+

Answer 6

But you can still be a Ambassador :)

Answer 7

^ Yep

Answer 8

No. We cannot do that why? Because there are times when 14yr olds can go crazy over stupid things and they can be immature when being a moderator. I can handle being a mod. But not being 18 totally rules me out. Yes, I've been suggested to be a Moderator, but again, age limit rules me out. So no.

Answer 9

T-T uNFIAR DXXXXXXXX =+ admass really cant do any thing thier just like reagluar mods

Answer 10

Boho, if you really wanna be a mod, show responsibility now, and maybe when you're 18+ you can apply for a mod.

Answer 11

>.> i wont be on openstudys when i am 18 T-T

Answer 12

It's not unfair, Boho. There are plenty of fair reasons for people under 18 not to be Moderators.

Answer 13

^ I agree

Answer 14

Nat, there is no application for mod :)

Answer 15

tt-t and people dont isten

Answer 16

xD

Answer 17

As of Moderators are NOT immature, they know what they're doing.Yes, people don't listen but you do have to respect them. Right?

Answer 18

My bad, Stuart :P

Answer 19

i am saying give users who think they can handle being a mod a test or something

Answer 20

=.= no

Answer 21

^ Not a good idea

Answer 22

and mods leave and chaos beings on os

Answer 23

Give us an example of how a mod made chaos on OS....

Answer 24

SO GIVE SOME USER A TEST IF THEY THINK THEY CAN HANDLE BEING A MOD

Answer 25

Plus 14 year olds typically aren't an expert in a subject and don't have a good sense of justice. A lot of people can be mature for a test.

Answer 26

well they aren't superheros they are still human bohot :p

Answer 27

Unless the test is over the time of a year or two, a test wouldn't work.

Answer 28

Good idea, but you know how sometimes 14yr olds can do something bad and then the suspensions, can go wrong and etc. That's why we do not allow them being a Moderator. And I doubt this may be done.

Answer 29

OOKAY BANNING LIKE CRAZY

Answer 30

lag :(

Answer 31

no mods leave the site so all user go crazy

Answer 32

WAY to immature.. You'll get some that's mature but still no.

Answer 33

Exactly ^^

Answer 34

king leave -.-

Answer 35

14 yo may still be biased and hold grudges against people, in turn, looking for that person's mistakes more often and suspending them more.

Answer 36

^

Answer 37

A lot of them aren't equipped to handle certain situations, even if they are mature

Answer 38

And that definitely isn't a good way to show that you are mature and can handle situations.

Answer 39

give user test -_- >.> not true but most of us ddont hold grudes we forgive -_-

Answer 40

What kind of test? How long would the test be? What would the test consist of?

Answer 41

^

Answer 42

if you think you can hanlde and do you know not to spam banning its like when youre a mod you not a real mod

Answer 43

AS talking about 14 yr olds, not to be rude to anyone, they can be really innapropriate at times. As of Mods, they are well, trained and do not do inaproppriate things.

Answer 44

and you look like a mod but you really not and they give you facke buttons

Answer 45

The perfect test would be one that the user wishing to become a mod does not know that it is going on..so then they wouldn't act mature for a certain amount of time, become a mod and be immature...I don't know, maybe that's silly, but that's my two cents on it.

Answer 46

they are useless so when you spam or go againist the rules of vbeign a mod

Answer 47

you will fail the test

Answer 48

-.- happened on a old site

Answer 49

As I said, the test would need to be for a long period of time to show that the user can handle situations maturely and appropriately.

Answer 50

@bohotness what fake buttons are you talking about? Ambassadors and Moderators work together. We as Ambassadors are given nothing.

Answer 51

^^^^

Answer 52

-_- stop typing and read

Answer 53

Boho, you might want to use some better spelling if you want others to take you more seriously. Just saying :)

Answer 54

I personally think this is a bad idea. Not only for the age but the emotional ride of the age. An age such as 14 would not be emotionally stable for what buttons people push against mods. The hate, the constant need of help. and whatnot,

Answer 55

i mean like when you give something like being a mod you get ban check ip but they wont do anything only to test you and if you dont go againist the rules of being a mod then you will be a mod if you fail you wont be a mod

Answer 56

There's no fake Ambi or Mod. They check all of that stuff.

Answer 57

Awesome point @fierstar123 ! Even Ambassadors get hate, and we don't even have any power!

Answer 58

we need more mods anyway just give them a test like that

Answer 59

And once again @bohotness I will leave when I want to leave.

Answer 60

Why do we need more mods? We have a lot of active mods.

Answer 61

o.o wow lagggggggg

Answer 62

no stay at night and you will seee all the mods leave and chaos begins

Answer 63

i been on here when they left and nothing but chaos

Answer 64

And as of that, when asking to be a moderator it limits your chances.

Answer 65

testtttttt give user test like i typed before

Answer 66

v-v

Answer 67

It doesn't matter who we make a moderator, there will always be times when there is not a mod on.

Answer 68

You never answered my questions about the test

Answer 69

So it'd be better if you sit, relax, and go with the flow. I think @Preetha would like to suggest something about this. As from what I know, she knows BETTER than anyone of us here!

Answer 70

It's calling reporting and leaving..
