Become a Chat Moderator

We need your help!
Are you a caring person that likes helping others? Do you hate it when spam and harassing posts drive people away from your favorite chat? The community at Pinoyzone-Addicx is largely a volunteer effort. That’s why we need your help.

What does a chat moderator do?

• Foster a sense of community, caring and responsiveness in the cbox. This can be done easily by getting involved in discussions, responding to users (especially those no one else responds to), and offering your support.
• Monitor the chat for abusive posts, unauthorized spam or advertisements, repeated posts, any sort of harassment, and any other violations of our community rules and guidelines. All moderators can warn serious “repeat” offender. A good rule of thumb is to talk to the offender first, but if offenses continue, then BAN.

How do I signup to become a moderator?

Once you have familiarized yourself with our Community and have read the guidelines, you have all the knowledge you need to request to become a moderator. To apply, fill out the moderator form, and tall tell us you are interested in moderating and why (what qualities or experience you may have). If there are openings and you are approved, the cbox administrator will interview you and give you the rules and if you agree, you are asked to write a resume about yourself and/fill an online form so you can introduce yourself to the other members.

How does a moderator get selected?

The moderators are selected in 2 ways:

1. You show interest.
2. Honor System: Once in a while we find users of exceptional quality, and ask them to help out. We will selectively review and recommend such members for moderation.

How does one get disqualified?

Reasons a candidate may be disqualified include but are not limited to:

• Lack of Trust: If you don’t trust the system, please do not participate.
• Claiming to be a moderator, when you are not
• Making other members uncomfortable trying to get their votes
• Voting on behalf of another person in any shape or form
• Asking for the password of other members.
• Disrupting the normal flow of room in any shape or form
