What is Minimodding?
Mini modding is when you tell someone who is breaking the rules to stop and correct it. This is a moderator's job, and normal members may not do this. Yes, we appreciate you helping, but we would appreciate it more if you would report it to staff, and let them handle it. This is mini-modding, because you are acting like a moderator, when you're not. If you help enough and staff sees that, we will promote you, then you can actually moderate, but not before.
Why is Minimodding so important?
Because is makes the members think that they can just be staff whenever they want. We have other duties, this being a relatively new site, and we will get to all of the reports in time. Just remember that Mini-modding gets wrong ideas in people's heads. Staff are staff, members are members. If we see you to be worthy of a staff, we will promote you.
I accidentally mini modded, what do I do?
If we catch you mini modding, we will give you a warning. Don't worry, this isn't a big problem, its just needed to prevent members from pretending to be staff, that's all. You will get a warning, and a temporary ban, if it reaches more than 3 times.
