What is VSTF? Well we kind of got inspired by Wikia for the idea (thanks dudes). It stands for Volunteer Spam Task Force. This is a group of forumers who clean up the spam on this forum and ban the spammers (the black magic "find your lover, totally not a scam!" bots). Like V in VSTF implies, this is strictly a voluntary role. Whether you apply or not, it's up to you (though whether you're accepted or not, its up to the mod/admin team). What are the requirements for this role?- Have been around this forum for a while (in other words, your forum account wasnt born yesterday) - A decent amount of quality posts (so we know you are trustworthy) - Active on this forum on a daily basis (whats the purpose of joining the VSTF if you're only active once a week?) What the VSTF isn't and should not do- The VSTF are not moderators or admins. Leave that to the friendly purple and orange names floating on this forum - Delete threads/ban members that are not spambots (if you're not sure, use the report button and tell us why you're not sure) Note: The mod and admin team check the security logs several times throughout the day. Abuse of power will get you kicked off the VSTF and at least one forum strike. Apply with the following information: - Username on this forum - How long have you been around here? - What's your time zone and when are you active on this forum Apply Below One thing I don't seem to get about VSTF is... If you enlist a group of minimods with the authority to ban members and delete comments (even If It's only for the intended purposes of spam), what's to stop any of them from just every once in a while under the radar abusing their authority to ban members or delete posts they simply don't like or don't agree with? And If you say, "because they have to have a reputation for being trusted before being accepted as VSTF", then isn't that the point of being a mod? So why not make them fullfledged mods instead of making them sub-mods? To outsource the job of being a mod in the first place without having to grant full clearance and a rank equal to yours meaning you can't reverse their staus at that point? In that case, is that not lazy and avoiding the responsibilities of the position?; And in that case, If you want to keep them under your rank as a contingency to remove power from them If and when necessary, then doesn't that mean there isn't enough confidence and trust to justify granting them any power or authority over anyone in the first place?

If someone abuses their power I'd go over there head and contact super hero.

If someone abuses their power I'd go over there head and contact super hero. but how could you know who It was? They could easily stealth ban you... or stealth delete your post... Looks to me like a huge problem waiting to happen, If It (more likely) hasn't or isn't already happening because we would have no way to know.

They try not to pick newer people and those that have been around a long while have pretty much been vetted and shown their true colors. Does something lead you to believe we have power hungry nimrods doing evil here? This is one of the best forums I have been on and have no complaints on how things are run here.

There are suspicions of which there is no point in going into detail to describe here, but that brings me back to one of the previous points, If they have enough trust to grant them any power, why not just make them fullfledged mods in the first place? Unless... they really don't have full trust, which loops back to the other previous point.

I stay here because its a great place. I trust that if abuse happens it will be found out and dealt with. Worse case if someone banned me I would just have someone else in my clan tell the mods here and it would get fixed. Living paranoid is hard enough without including my entertainment game playing. I took the Red Pill long ago but this is not the place for it IMO. My advice don't do poo poo stuff here and have a Coke and a smile because it will all be OK. Peace out and happy hunting.

I have many employees, 7 kids, 6 grandchildren and a degree from the school of hard knocks. I can already tell you will never be happy so I am going to grab an adult beverage sit back and smile at how great life is and watch you scream how unfair the world is and how someone is going to get you. All this over the forum to a game.

Your assumptions about my perspective/intent/attitude are far excessive and completely unfounded as no information present contains the slightest insights of anything remotely relevant. There are excercises that you can emplore to help you stay on topic, but I doubt you'd be interested as you are obviously very contented with your deficiency...

One its a private forum they could do whatever they want. Two congress is not going on a witch hunt here. If you have some beef or claim against someone come out with it otherwise stop stirring the pot and being a turd. I am not playing your little tin foil hat game that's the whole point. Please show us on the doll where someone touched you. If you don't like the way things are here LEAVE I can only surmise you are another younger person who may be living with mom still.

You know what the best part of you showcasing your chronic imbecility on this thread is Loganspawn ? It's sticky'd. Meaning that It will be on the front page of the most popular section of the entire forum for everyone to see on full display for A LONG TIME. Consider this to be my present to you: a way you can introduce yourself to everyone so they can know what to expect from you If they should have the displeasure of meeting you.
