Only if you keep thinking like that.

You could basically predict what I'm about to say, but most of the members, less the newbies, are literate, trustworthy, reliable and constructive. Appraisal isn't intended to point out flaws. Au contraire, it's often used in businesses to compliment workers. It's just so much easier to be negative than positive. However, if you give comments based on a controlled template with a given number of questions, which will presumably be run through the staff to make sure they're happy with it, then you've got nothing to worry about. Parallel to that, if you're not happy with being given comments, positive OR negative, then you're obviously worried about something. Getting these comments might give you the kick up the arse you need.

I'm not suggesting that if you get a few complaints then you get de-staffed. In a way, they're used to give the Administrators (or whoever's running it) an insight as to who is performing as should be expected. While I'd like to say otherwise, none of the Administrators currently seem to be active (and if they are, then they're either lurking or on invisible mode) and, as an Administrators job should entail, they should be keeping up-to-date with how their staff are working. Yes, it's only a forum. No, we've not got a lot of problems right now, past the technical side regarding the server. This is just something that would run smoothly and make sure the forums run efficiently.

Good grief, you'd think I wanted my idea implemented again

Yeah, I agree as well....No Offense.

Anyways, I'm for Riku's idea.

The annoymous idea should help keep drama down between staff and members. It's best that staff members view the annoymous reviews. By members seeing what other members said would cause tension.

Oh it's very funny. And did you totally miss Riku's posts? He thought of a similar idea long before you did.

Exactly. Keep everything to a template and regulate it and it won't turn into a bitchfest. There is a difference between criticizing and critiquing. Critiquing would just be giving your two cents-worth on how people perform, it can be both negative and positive (and even the negative could be considered positive, so it lets it be known if changes are needed). It wouldn't be putting mods up on the chopping block, it's simply a professional, organized way to give feedback to the mods. Any store or business you see has a way to leave feedback, so why not here too?

EDIT:

Let's appreciate our wonderful, hard-working, shemale mod Rhea!

Ain't he/she/it/Quina so purty?

Riku had the idea first really. And youre being abit selfish about the idea here. Youve not given us much detail on how you would do it. Plus te comment Tyler gave is kinda true.

October 31, 2007, 11:33 AM

fine riku could you take it over from me i resign

October 31, 2007, 11:34 AM

Oh stop being a drama queen. How can you do an idea like this if you cant handle critism?

October 31, 2007, 11:38 AM

it is just everyone wants riku to take over so i will give them what they want i am resigning so that riku can take over

October 31, 2007, 5:58 PM

...What? There's no taking over scheme going on here.

Anyway, this idea basically brings us back to the Review Room topic, since you can analyze the members of staff there, among other things. We'll see what we can do.
