Moderators, or mods, are picked by the Forum Admin who is currently Vader.

Any user in Legacy can become a moderator if the Forum Admin chooses that person. There is no specific way to become a moderator; follow the forum rules on Legacy and when the Forum Admin is looking for new moderators he/she will let you know.

Unlike staff, moderators do not control every forum. All "user" moderators usually have control of up to 4 forums. Moderators lock, sticky, sticky lock, delete and edit posts and threads when necessary. If you do something wrong, a moderator can and will edit/delete your posts.


History

When the game came out of Private Beta testing in 2005, there were only three forum moderators. Deeg looked after Main Forum, Help Forum, Clan Talk and Veteran Forum, Jkjace was in charge of Suggestions and Bugs, and Garibaldi was moderator of Spam/Games and Not Related. Deeg, being one of the most outspoken moderators, had a lot of conflicts with players, who disagreed with some of his opinions and the way he ran his forums.

This setup stayed the same for a long time, until Skorne joined the team to share the load, since the forums were ever becoming more active. He was moderating many of the forums by himself, including Clan Talk, Suggestions, Bug Reports, and the Elite Forum. Skorne was extremely active and was a popular moderator with all those who didn't type like they were 10 years old. When Doddsyboi became the PR Admin though, Skorne was demoted to just 2 forums and, since moderating was all he did in the game, started to lose interest in the game and after a small argument with Doddsyboi, was fired.

Jkjace then gained a staff position, shortly followed by Deeg, which led to more Moderators being hired to cope with the increasing demand of attention the forums required.

Player Moderators For Online chat:

All Staff have moderation powers. This excludes Player Staff.

Clan and Gang Moderators

There are also clan and gang moderators who only have control of certain forums. A player is made a clan moderator once he is promoted to the rank of assistant leader or higher. As a clan mod he has control over the clan forum.

Similiarly, a gang moderator has control of certain gang forums and become one once they are promoted high enough within the gang:

  • Rank 11 or higher is required for moderation powers of the Newbie Forum
  • Rank 13 or higher is required for moderation powers of the Member Forum
  • Rank 17 or higher is required for moderation powers of the Gang Leadership Forum
