The Psychiatric Ward

And I thank you for trying, Fluffy. ^_^

Alright, might as well get this one started. You're graded on how many you did, seeing as some of us didn't do them all. You either get the question wrong (0), half right (.5), or completely right (1). I'll explain how your answers were right or wrong, and how to improve. I'm sure the other Smods such as qwertyuio will also have something to say.

1. Pokemon Battle Forum - Topic is made by new member asking for cheats on the Final Fantasy 13 game.
   
   

0 - starform - You were a bit off on this one bud. This is a game cheating website, no sense in telling people to not make topics on game cheats. You would be a Moderator there, meaning you have the 'move topic' button in front of you. Just move it to this forum and provide a link to the cheat codes for the game, if you want. Or, you could leave the cheat links up to someone else. All depends on how much you want to help.

.5 - Axionas - You're half right on this one. You did answer their question on where the cheats were, yes, but you still told them not to make a game cheating thread on a game cheating website. Move the topic. I see where you and Star were going here, but it's better to tell them not to make a FF13 topic on Pokemon Battle, rather than none at all.

1 - CRAZY CHEATS - Short and simple, I like that.

1 - Glaceon - Got that one right, good job.


2. General Chat - Topc Title: Hi
   
First Post: Hi, I'm new to the site.

1 - starform - Wouldn't expect any less from you on this question, actually. Nice.

1 - Axionas - Correct, like the warm welcome part. Shows will to actually put some effort forth.

1 - CRAZY CHEATS - Correct.

1 - Glaceon - Correct.


3. Teams and Clans Dragon Roleplay Thread - Name: Drake
   
Type: Golden Dragon
Age: 5

0 - Axionas - Like I've said before, not all posts on SC are bad. This one is fine as it is; No reason for a Moderator to do anything at all.

0 - CRAZY CHEATS - Like I said to Axionas, not every post on SC is bad.

1 - Glaceon - Correct, what you said basically sums up my thoughts.


4. Member Bio - Hi, I'm new to the site and would love to get some cheat codes for a lot of games I own. I live in New York City and just love staying on the internet as much as I can. I'm 12 years old and LOVE Pokemon!!! I hope to become a big part of this site's staff one day. I'll try to be on the forums as much as I can but I might mess up from time to time. Hope you all can help me adjust to the place, see you around!!!
   
   

.5 - starform - You did the right thing by reporting it in staff, but don't tell them that they're going to get a ban put on them before an Administrator/Super Mod is right beside you. Could turn ugly, and only we have the power to put a cap on them should they freak out.

.5 - Axionas - Eh, not really a fan of the wording. You don't have the power to ban as a Moderator. I do like the fact that you said you would explain things politely, but you still told him. Report it in staff, let the people who have power over that region handle it.

1 - CRAZY CHEATS - Good response.

.5 - Glaceon - Report only. Do like that you know about the whole COPPA deal. The tone of voice you choose to use, it's a bit too strict. Telling them what's going to happen as if they have no control over it, despite it being the cold truth, is most likely going to peeve them off.


5. Pokemon Trading Thread - Post:
   
   

1 - starform - Correct response.

.5 - Axionas - Contributing post, yes, 3 words, no. Rule has been removed. As long as the post is productive, it stays.

1 - CRAZY CHEATS - Bit strict, but yeah.

.5 - Glaceon - He can't really edit if you've already deleted it, now can he? 3 word rule doesn't apply, but it is spam.


6. Teams and Clans Chat Thread - New member's post says "You know, all this gloating is making you look bad."
   
   

.5 - Axionas - Yes, a slight warning might help. No action really needed... pay attention to what I'm about to say to CRAZY CHEATS and Glaceon.

0 - CRAZY CHEATS - While others have the freedom to gloat, this member has the freedom to express their opinion. They said they looked bad to them, not anything exactly flame worthy in there. If they had said something along the lines of "It makes you look stupid", then yes, it would be flame. Fine how it is right now.

0 - Glaceon - Same as I said before, every member is free to express their opinion, even if it's slightly pushing it.


7. Pokemon Trading Forum - Thread by a new person asking for an Arceus. First 3 posts have all been made by the original poster, one after another. They all say the exact same thing; "Hi, can I get an Arceus? I'll trade anything."
   
   

1 - starform - Correct, but keep in mind that this is most likely a post data error. Their computer somehow submitted the same thing multiple times; not their fault.

.5 - Axionas - Correct, but... there is no correct format there.

.5 - CRAZY CHEATS - Yes, you should have deleted the post, but not even threatened to close the thread. They're asking for a specific Pokemon, not offering everyone trades from what they have. They don't need a list at all.

1 - Glaceon - Correct, but just remember that it's most likely a post data error.


8. SuperCheats Times Thread - Someone comes into a thread and posts this. Why is this the way it is from Admin view; Why was it deleted?
   
Spoiler:

click to reveal


Eh, let me first just say I'm a bit sorry about this one. I probably wasn't being all to clear on what I was asking. Here's the situation: I deleted a post in the SCT, but forgot to take a screen shot of it first to use it here. I had to ask one of our Administrators, X__x, to take a screen shot of it seeing as he was the only one that could still see it. That's his screen, I was just asking why it was deleted. Anyway, you all get points on this one.

1 - starform
1 - Axionas
1 - CRAZY CHEATS
1 - Glaceon


9. General Chat - Thread is made by fairly old member with a bad reputation. The thread is about a web page on Encyclopediadramatica.com. Note that Encyclopediadramatica.com typically contains a large amount of porn and offensive material. Member is already on his last warning.
   
   

1 - starform - Correct, simple as.

.5 - Axionas - Eh, problem here. Again, you can't ban until you're at Smod level. You'll just have to delete the thread and report it in staff.

.5 - CRAZY CHEATS - Both of your situations might work. Delete the thread as a whole because of the material, or delete the first post and close the thread after telling the member what they did wrong. There is actually a rule about Encyclopediadramatica.com. Don't even talk about it. Right now, even I'm pushing it because it is, in fact, a very distasteful site. Almost every page there contains something that we wouldn't want linked to on SuperCheats.

1 - Glaceon - Correct. Good job.


10. SuperCheats Times - Thread Title: I'm back baby!!!
    
First Post by Pikachu1011: You'll never get rid of me!!! AHAHAHAHA!!!

1 - starform - Correct.

1 - Axionas - Correct.

1 - CRAZY CHEATS - Correct, and best answer I've seen so far. Closing thread until you could be sure is a good choice.

1 - Glaceon - Note that you can't check IP info until you're at Smod level, but yes, refer him to higher authority.


11. Pokemon Pearl - Thread Title: Fort Minor
    
First post: Hey, what do you think of this band?




1 - starform - Correct.

1 - Axionas - Correct.

1 - CRAZY CHEATS - Correct.

1 - Glaceon - Correct. Lulz at saying please twice in the same sentence, though.


12. Teams and Clans Chat Thread - Post: lol
    
    

1 - Axionas - Correct.

1 - CRAZY CHEATS - Correct, though there is no 3 word rule.

0 - Glaceon - Wrong, unfortunately. I wish we could delete posts like that, but it still stands for something. You'll have to leave it, and, at most, tell the person to pick it up a little.


13. Teams and Clans Team - Team logo is pornographic material.
    
    

.5 - Axionas - Half right. Delete the logo, yes. But seeing as it will take 24 hours to disappear, your best bet would be to close the whole place down and report it in staff for the member to be banned.

.5 - CRAZY CHEATS - Again, you're half right. Delete the logo, yes, but don't put the team at the top of the T&C page by bumping it to warn. Get that place off of the list as fast as possible. Do NOT keep it up for others to see that pornographic image. And T&C Mods have full chief controls.

.5 - Glaceon - Same as what I said above. Just report it in staff so the member can get the boot.


14. Debate and Discussion Thread on 'If God Exists' - Post: I agree!
    
    

1 - starform - Correct.

1 - Axionas - Correct.

.5 - CRAZY CHEATS - Correct on deleting it, but there is no 3 word rule. It was a spam post, though.

.5 - Glaceon - Correct on deleting it, same as above.


15. Fan Fic and Role Play - Role play thread made by slightly older member. Post are typically as follows in that thread.
    
*Turns around* What?

1 - starform - Correct.

1 - Axionas - Correct.

1 - CRAZY CHEATS - Correct, though a bit stern sounding.

1 - Glaceon - Correct.


16. Signature Area - Signature reads "Well I've had it with being hated and singled out. Such nice friends I've had. Go to hell."
    
    

1 - starform - Correct.

1 - Axionas - Correct.

0 - CRAZY CHEATS - They told everyone to go to hell, that is flaming.

1 - Glaceon - Correct. http://i53.tinypic.com/1494gf4.png :D


17. Teams and Clans Chat Thread - There's a well established person in the Teams and Clans area of the site. Everyone knows this person, everyone loves this person. This person would NEVER do anything wrong. He always uses proper grammar. His team is big, like a chat thread being 3,000 pages long. All of the sudden, chat thread is changed to the following and the person comes in to post. I'm this person for now.
    

Thread Tittle: Chat Thread
Thread Description: im here to help all you nurds with your problems!!!

Post: please, im here to save you all from your nerd!!!

.5 - Axionas - First of all, Mods can't change the name of thread titles. Only Smods and Admins can do that. Second, no, asking them to step away won't help. This is obviously a spammer. Your only hope is to report it in staff and hope it will get a temporary ban until the real user can take control of it again. The only reason I'm giving you half a point is because you talked of contacting the real account holder.

.5 - CRAZY CHEATS - I want to stress something to you. You are not to close any threads of that length in the Teams section of the site. They cannot be opened back up, so that's basically shooting T&C in the side of the head. You get half a point for contacting the real owner of the account.

1 - Glaceon - Really the best answer I've seen for this so far. Good job.


18. Teams and Clans Chat Thread - A fellow Moderator threatens to start deleting threads in the forums.
    
    

1 - Axionas - Correct.

1 - CRAZY CHEATS - Correct.

1 - Glaceon - Correct.


19. Teams and Clans Chat Thread - The team chief of a large team threatens to close the team if activity doesn't pick up.
    
    

1 - Axionas - Correct.

1 - CRAZY CHEATS - Correct, and you're right. His/her team, they can manage it how they want. Nothing we can do other than sit back and laugh.

1 - Glaceon - Correct, and you have been a major source of problems, so I'm just using what you do for some of these tests.


20. General Gaming Discussion - Thread is made on ROM discussion.
    
    

0 - starform - It's pirated software; illegal.

1 - Axionas - Correct.

0 - CRAZY CHEATS - Again, pirated software.

1 - Glaceon - Mmm, yeah. As long as the post is gotten rid of, it's fine. Yes, Mods can delete topics. You might have some trouble getting in contact with the guy if you delete the thread, though.

I get the feeling I did bad... well, I did what I would do.

Eh, not all that bad. You made the same mistake the other two did so far. the biggest that I can see, at least. xD

I'll find out what it is tomorrow I suppose.

Yay, people are posting again. ^^

I'll give you a hint; Not every post on SC is bad. There are a few in there that require no action at all, but that knowledge just comes with experience. No editing to fix it.

Soz Gabby, was playing Minecraft with Cam.

Yeah, I saw a few that looked like that, I just didn't know if i should have marked them or not.

Eh, it's fine and all. Tests are only meant to help everyone improve.

Exactly why I didn't freak out with this.

*Pats his back and sits down.*

Try not to over do it. :/

*Is whacking Minecraft*

Imma be on there in just a sec. Oh... and there's one part of the Mod guidelines that I do nawt like.
