Moderators

Additional features accessible to moderators

Rename / cancel current item requests

There are regularly incorrect item requests that are submitted by members :

  • An answer or a question misspelt
  • The item doesn't fit the category in which it has been requested
  • The item request is too complicated or simple or isn't of any interest to the game
  • There is an item equivalent to the request that is already included in the quiz

The moderator can edit an item request to make it more appropriate while still retaining the original intention of the request.
The moderator can also cancel an item request if it's not relevant enough to be included in the quiz.

However the moderator cannot influence the approval of an item request. His vote is equal to the vote of another member.
The moderator has never access to the whole content of a quiz to determine if a request constitutes a duplicate. He has to rely on his knowledge of the quiz and thus be a regular player in the category he is moderating.

Edit the items already included in the quizzes

Sometimes there are some erroneous items that have been included in the quizzes :
For example an image which include the response or a musical extract with a really poor quality.

The players can report these problems in game when an erroneous item is featured, thus flagging the item.
These flagged items are then regularly submitted to the moderators so that they can confirm and handle the problem.
The moderator can either decide to remove the element from the quiz or edit the item to correct it if possible.

A moderator can be removed from his function if the corrections he has made to the quizzes aren't justified (every modification is supervised by the administrators).
