ZERATUL Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 Hello everyone, this is mb just partly talk about moderation so i think it should be ok to be public, and ill be very short. So as we know ppl can pay and then get a private channel where they can do w.e. So i noticed sometimes mods like to make lobbys for ih, which im somewhere ok with.But some mods are all the time making their own channel and even put password on it, and keep that channel most of time they are online. So are ppl that pay private channels retarded if u can be a mod and make ur channel for free and keep it forever??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucid Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 What in the worldwide web do you mean? Do You think that locked channels are "retarded"? Mods have the ability to make channels because they are well.. mods, if you are not a mod then I guess you pay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's asking what the point of paying for a channel is if you can just be a mod and get it for free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZERATUL Posted October 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 (edited) I mean why are mods allowed(altho most dont so dont feel offended) to make channels for free.As u said in ur post, it just makes no sense that if u are a mod u can make free channels for personal usage Edited October 29, 2014 by ZERATUL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucid Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 I'm not sure that mod channels are permanent channels, but I could be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZERATUL Posted October 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 I think they arent perma, but some mods as soon as they get online they most of time make channel and keep it till they go online(sometimes i seen more time) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EterNity Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 So you do not have to switch over to your own server when all your AoS friends are in AoS server? We all know that server only cost $6 to make; however, having a channel is more convenient than getting your own server. Not to mention that it is a way of helping up the community instead of calling people retarded when what they are actually doing is helping the game out.

ZERATUL Posted October 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 (edited) Im talking about channels in aos server, sry wrong title. I didnt mean to call them retarded, its just a joke.. I just wanted to point out how stupid it is. But if most ppl dont mind mods having free private channels with passwords im not the 1 that will stop it, or critize anymore Edited October 29, 2014 by ZERATUL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucid Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 I believe that mods should have the ability to make channels to organize play. If you want your own channel for you and your friends then paying a few $ is not that crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanedog Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 So lost right now.... I'm just thankful for the AOS mumble and TEAM MERLINS private channel... EterNity 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yaldi Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 Okay lets try and explain this a bit better. Some people donate to help upkeep the mumble servers and the website this donation is very generous and one of the privileges these paying members of the community get is their own private channel in mumble. In the AoS mumble there are 3 sections: 1. Public: This section is for everyone who wants to use it for free 2. Private: This section is where the donators get their section of the AoS mumble 3. Admin: Kinda obvious In the public section it is widely regarded as ok for moderators to make channels if and when they are needed for inhouses. These will never have passwords on them and if people are causing trouble well the moderator can deal with that Now the problem is that SOME of the moderators are using their power to create their own personal private channel with passwords attached not for the benefit of organising inhouses but to have their own personal little section just like the people who donate money. This is obviously unfair as the donators who are doing a good thing and helping provide for ALL of us mumblers have their reward being diminished by certain people. So Zeratul is wondering why would you donate when you could just ask to be a mod instead? OPReN, BestPlayer, Diipadaapa and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BestPlayer Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 Like this picture, where the moderator in question (GuZ) has created a channel called DarKS and put a password on it. I find it highly objectionable and honestly to be an abuse of power: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GuZ Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 Personally I feel offended I know you guys just troll around don't even care about the community (soed, diipa, Yaldi, etc etc) and CODE you are just sneaky around trying to find I don't know what you don't even speak. This topic has been lock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrath Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 This has actually been discussed recently by myself and EKCO. What we concluded is that, as these channels (such as Highdration Nation) are public and do not afford the player any additional privileges, there is no harm to them. The private channels afford the player who paid for them additional privileges - I don't know exactly what off the top of my head, but to say the least, they are welcome to restrict who comes and goes. Edit: Read Yaldi's clarifying post. Any moderator created locked channels wouldn't be acceptable unless they are related to moderation. It will get looked into.
