Moderator Behavior
- Moderators should not quarrel with other players or moderators in public. Simple disagreement may be voiced, but intense, heated debate should be kept in the proper venue or to private messages ("whispers") or email.
- Moderators are only human and will make mistakes. When a mistake is made, just acknowledge it, apologize, and move on.
- Abuse of Moderator privileges or abusing players and/or staff as a Moderator will cause said privileges to be revoked.
- Players and staff in DarkSpace live in several different countries and speak different languages. Misunderstandings are not only possible, but are very common. This is especially true when the speaker is under duress, the effects of heightened emotions, in a hurry, or in a tense situation. Under these circumstances, if what the speaker says seems offensive, get them to explain themselves before taking offense. Chances are, the extra time afforded will allow them to clearly re-think their words and clarify what they are trying to convey. Remember these three virtues: patience, tolerance, and understanding.
- When faced with language constructs that you do not understand, ask other native speakers of the language in question to translate and/or explain the usage context.
