Dear theymos, is there an opportunity to raise one of the moderators of the Russian locale to a global moderator (in my opinion, it does not matter who) due to the fact that the solution of some issues takes a lot of time or the issue is not solved as in the case of the infinite appearance of new kornrers accounts, which denigrates the reputation of many worthy users, including moderators.
I think that to solve some questions requires knowledge of the Russian language and understanding of our mentality.
Please consider this possibility. I apologize to native speakers for my English.
I support your request.
What would be the benefit of a
global moderator for the russian section ?
korner was abusing the trust/flag system and didn't only tag user of the russian community.
Neither did he do any harm to anyones reputation. This account was used for worthless spam, no one cares about his flags/ratings.
Korner was banned only after he began to put flags to users outside the Russian locale. Prior to that, he had broken the rules for several months in a rude manner in the Russian locale, moderators filed requests for his ban, but he was never banned. Now he creates new accounts and continues to break the rules in the Russian section.
Which problems could a global moderator solve, which can't be solved by a local moderator regarding the russian language and mentality ?
Global moderator have moderation rights on the whole forum. The russian language and mentality doesn't play any role on the english section of the forum.
Neither does it play a role when violating forum rules which lead to bans.
In the Russian section, there are enough violators of the rules who deserve at least a temporary ban, but all the moderators can do is only to delete messages that violate the rules. It would be good if at least one of them could ban violators in the Russian section.
So, which 'questions' are you referring to who need a global moderator to be solved, with the following statement ?
I think that to solve some questions requires knowledge of the Russian language and understanding of our mentality.
In each language there are stable expressions, proverbs, quotes that, when translated into another language, lose their meaning. There are also literary works, phrases that offend dignity, jokes, and so on, which only native speakers of the language can understand. All this influences the fact that one would admit that a message violates the rules or not.
