Having a mod team is definitely key. Paid or not they need to act professionally. Awhile back I was looking to improve mod integrity by having it so a mod would be restricted from managing a flag they made or were the target of. Unfortunately at the time my CSS/JScript skills were not there yet and I still need to work on improving them still
It is true paid or not a mod can have a bad day this is where the individual needs to know when to take a break and to also heed ty counsel of not only fellow mods but also respectable community members I had one community member reach out during a is when things had become a bit rough. I had started to become more aggressive. Where prior to the is I was a community support helping members with their VR headset issues Due to him reaching out, I realized I needed to do better. I made an apology to the community and returned more back to myself
