Admin / Moderator Guide

 

Congrats & welcome new moderator. This guide will help you with your various responsibilities & roles you now have as a Divisional Moderator. If you have any questions feel free to ask a Division Staff or Division Leader.

 

In-game Moderation

• As an Admin, you will get access to admin commands in-game.
  • Abusing these commands will result in your immediate demotion/removal of admin.
• As an Admin, you get absolutely no immunity. You are still required to follow all the same rules as a moderator.
• When on our servers make sure to treat everyone with respect.
  • We will not accept you targeting or disrespecting players on our servers. Acting in such a way could result in your demotion/removal of admin.
• Do Not mass punish the server. If multiple people are breaking rules take care of them, there is no reason the whole server needs to be punished because of a group of randoms rule-breaking.
  • If a good 50% of the server is mic spamming, you are allowed to mass mute everyone so you can get your word through which afterwards, you are required to unmute everyone immediately.
• If you are unsure about procedures go to the links below or contact a Division Staff/Division Leader.
  • TF2: Rule Enforcement Procedures

 

HG Bans

• ONLY ban for 60 minutes.
  • Never ban for anything under 60 minutes.
  • This allows the leadership team to review it without the suspect reconnecting & causing additional issues.
• Always be professional on ban reports.
  • Never cause drama on ban reports.
  • When posting ban reports Never treat the suspect or the reviewer in a rude or disrespectful way.
• Conversations or arguments are Not Allowed on the bans page.
  • If a conversation or argument has started on the bans page DO NOT participate. Go to a Division Staff or Division Leader of tf2 explaining what has happened.
  • Participating in conversations or arguments on the bans page will make you liable for the same punishments as the suspect. Remember it takes 2 people to start a fight.
• Do Not post on ban reports if you do not have proof to add.
• Do Not argue with leadership about their decision on the ban report, if you think they reviewed a ban incorrectly contact a Division Leader or Gaming Director to sort it out.
• If you are unsure whether you have sufficient proof to ban a player, post a ban report on the bans page.
