Due to the forum mods mistakes, ignoring my tickets pointing out the mistakes and senior mods not reprimanding or sorting out the situation, I feel that further action needs to be taken.
As mods can and do ignore genuine tickets if it suits them, not correct their obvious mistakes, I am removing the curtain they hide behind and revealing who they are. Maybe some players who have been treated unfairly will recognise a name they have upset or something similar.
There may be a few recent changes to this list that I am not aware off, and I have intentionally left off a name or two... and please note that these mods do all different jobs, some only mod chat, some just forums and some can mod all areas.

I must say I am dispointed in this list of staff members. I honestly expected a group of new players as staff as there desions make no sense at all and lacks intellegent reasoning. Its embarrassing to find out these players have been around for a while and still lack the sense to moderate the game properily.
There job perforcmance is a disgrace and there inabilty to make a fair decision based on the rules makes me wonder if they even walk on two legs.
To this list of staff I say Cheers! you are the disgrace of the game thank you for making a good game a total pice of crap!
Anonymous due to the mods punishing me in game ofr a comment on a seperate website lord knows its happened before! These creatures cant even figure out what sited there supose to watch over.
I don't believe that ALL the Mods are doing wrong,
Although some of them could probably learn to deal with players I think that on a whole they do a good job with a few errors.
I disagree with the naming of the Mods especially if some of them aren't actually Moderators so really until there is sufficient proof that they are Mods I think that the Names should be removed from the Post as it's not fair on those who aren't Mods or those that do their job in an Excellent Manner.
So what if the Mods are Nazi's (not my view) They aren't there to be friendly they are here to make sure the Profanity is kept to a Minimum so that we can enjoy Syrnia.
Thanks for Reading, TheDumbo
thedumbo, as you said, some mods do a great job which we are all grateful for. But that does not mean we should put up with the bad ones becouse there are also some good ones.
I chose to leave off a few names from the list as they seem to mod well and LadyR is public so there was no point removing her name.
They are all mods, and most of them have been mods for a long time. There are also some new mods which seem to be unfit for their job. If someone is not good at their job, you get rid of them, not cover up for their mistakes forever while they continue to upset more players.
The main issue that started this was not chat moderating but forum modding. The curent forum mod is making mistakes left right and centre and acting like a kid with a ban gun. A lot of players have noticed how bad the forum mod is.
The other issue is the senior mods who let this continue to happen. The same senior mods that decided to stop announcing mutes in chat becouse one player complained about it. The senior mod or mods who are not fot for their job obviously.
show some proof of that they are mods, I can confirm that all M2H's brothers are correct, and they did/do more then moderate the game. they helped building it;)
The issue is a certain % is hiding behind the "MOD" status and doing whatever they feel like. Even if its 1 or 2 mods doing that its too many.
It appears that whereas before there was just 2 senior mods overseeing everything, there is now a senior chat mod, senior forum mod etc.
So there are more senior mods and from some of the replies I have seen, one or more of them are completely clueless.
I agree completely Senior Staff Members as of late or an embarrasment to the name. How do you get this jon besides sitting in a chicken suit and seeing howmany rotten eggs you can lay on the players.
The staff is making very foolish mistakes lately. It seems they dont understand the rules or even care about them . They simply want to be correct and tend to bully players into believing they are.
Intellect is not a requirement in becoming a staff people appaernetly communication skills arent either.
why not list all the mods why only the ones you feel do a bad job, seems the list is pointless your only pointing out the players you dont like
I'm finding it hard to come down on one side or the other about this issue (The posting of the names).
Whilst it's your right to post whatever you like on your site, i think this all could have been smoothed over long long ago by simply making all Mods public.
I've said it time and time again, it is very simple. Make them all public, and firstly you remove all the shadows and secrecy and immiedaitely you will see some improvements in player-mod communication, as people naturally like to see who they are talking to/dealing with, and having to talk to person hidden behind a Moderator name will only lead to them feeling isolated and at the mercy of any abuse of power that the Mods feel like throwing at them.
As for the "Good" mods and the "Bad" mods. I can't really comment on that. I knew some of the ones on the list, like i expect most people did by watching chat, forums and using a bit of common sense.
But if i were a Mod, i would want to improve my performance to be the best i could be, to help players and to help the game, and if there are some Mods who don't care about any of that, and just scrape through doing the bare minimum and not really helping much (Communication wise), then they should either get their finger's out and improve their performance, or be removed. Because, as i said in a thread today, they are the Public Relations for the game, and if they come across as not caring and incompetant, then it reflects on all Mods and all of the game.
@ The discussion of the Forum Mod - I have had a forum ticket open for quite a while now, where i add any forum things that need looking at. And the Mod(s) who have dealt with that ticket have done so satisfactorily. (The Senior Moderator has done most i think).
Although having said that i have been very DISsatisifed with some tickets/responses by/to the Forum Mod(s).
But then again, in life whereever you go you will always find people that you don't get along with, people who share a widely different opinion than you on many things, including rules/terms/phrases, etc... And that is to be expected.
But for the love of God, if they ever want to get rid of all the "Players vs Mods" crap, the first step is the most important - All go public.
Thank you very much!
That list has cleared up a few things. Now I can see how corrupt some of these mods are. There is one mod on that list who is using his position to further his and his clans position in the game and I think that's disgraceful.
For the anonymous poster who wanted proof of the names.....from chat tonight:
2] 22:39 (Mod)impi[MAAN]: can we call a ModCon?
[2] 22:39 ladyhawk_3k: hello world
[2] 22:39 Dragonfuries[Fangz]: O.O oh gods no..bye world chat...call to me when the mods are gone
[2] 22:39 (Mod)Cancun[MAAN]: Impi's a Mod? *faints*
[2] 22:39 Aglarele[~SaS~]: modinvasion? :o
[2] 22:39 Luna[Lair]: lol Jester. :P
[2] 22:39 (Mod)motorrolla[~A.S~]: I did until I got dragged back rudi
Having been doubted over the DW mod thing in the past and later to be proved right, the same is unfolding here ;)
