Have you ever been a temporary moderator and been unsure of what to do?  Have you questioned when it is justifiable to warn or not?  Here are some examples of common scenarios you might encounter as a temp mod.  After each example, I will either say "Don't Warn" or "Warn".

You've been promoted to a temporary moderator!  What the heck is that?

Often referred to as simply a 'temp mod,' these users have the ability to give warnings in chat and access the chatroom "mod". Their modship expires after they log out. They are promoted from a member by admins who deem them to be trustworthy, kind, and involved in the community.

A Temporary Moderator's Responsibility

Professionalism: As of now, you are an official representative of Platform Racing 2.  Make sure you are prepared for the added expectations. You must absolutely follow remaining rules and continue to exhibit the behavior that got you your title. Try to be talkative in chat to promote general fun-having. Be fair to everyone, and maintain professionalism.

Attitude: You were chosen for your shining attitude. Now that you have a dark green name, people will look up to you. Don't stress yourself out, and try to have some fun.  After all, it is a game.

The Mod Room: As mentioned before, you will now have access to the exclusive, staff-only room, aptly titled "mod".  A mod/admin may call you to this room to talk.  You may also call a mod/admin to this room to ask questions.

Modding: When temp modding, you will generally give 3 warnings. After that, you will need to contact a mod/admin to assign an hour ban. When a user commits an offense a full moderator will need to deal with (such as an inappropriate link), give them a 30-minute kick to hold them back.

Warning 1: 30 Seconds
Warning 2: 1 Minute
Warning 3: 2 Minutes

Please note: You are required to warn users at least twice before kicking/banning.

Welcome to Jiggmin's Village!

The village has several moderators who act as peacekeepers; they strive to keep the village running safely and smoothly. If you fail to follow the village rules, you may be warned or banned by a moderator.

Keep the site clean.
Let’s keep all content civil. Don’t post porn, spam, pointlessly naughty words, links to anything illegal, or otherwise inappropriate references, words, or content.  Don’t quote posts that break the rules.

Respect your neighbors.
Don’t start a fight when there isn’t one. Try to keep your conversations on-topic. Don’t be a troll.

Protect the village.
Report spammers, haters, and hackers.

These rules do not cover every possible situation. Use your best judgment, and the moderators will as well.
