So, I’ve been getting quite a few questions on what I and the whole team behind the site are doing and now I’m seizing the opportunity to tell you about what happens behind the scenes of Soulreaper.net!
First off I’m sorry to say that you are becoming disappointed now, as there are no juicy behind the scenes activities. The moderator-team does have some discussions on matters regarding the site, but these are mostly about site-improvements, criticism (positive/negative) and purely technical matters.
The moderators’ job is to keep the site clean and move/close topics and posts as the moderators see appropriate. The first level moderators’ job is also to notify the senior moderator / administrator about users (read: spambots) that needs to be banned, and then, if necessary, the IP-addresses will be denied access to the site by the administrator. I also disable usernames that I know are spambots of different kinds, as there are ways to detect this before they even cause any damage.
What the administrator also does, beside keeping this site clean from vermin is to do all the coding necessary to add new features and keeping the server ticking as it should.
Another important aspect to this site is that we have certain methodologies in place which protects all members against spam coming through the site (including private messages) as well as protecting the members’ personal information to always be safe and not leave the realms of this site. The later includes IP and email-addresses.
I hope that this post explained quite a few things regarding the daily upkeep of all our’s Soulreaper.net.
Cheerio!
