If you are a known and respected dev I will probably end up modding you on HiveDevs without you even asking. I watch the logs of the community so I can see what is being muted and how users are being tagged. If someone is found to be abusing their mod privileges they will be taken away; simple.
This isn't rocket science. If someone posts content not related to HiveDevs in the HiveDevs community, just mute the post with a short reason for why. If you want to leave a comment for the user so they can do better next time, feel free to do that as well.
If there are bot accounts spamming or highly abusive users, you can mute them at your own discretion. Again, do leave an informative, short tag on the muted user. (spammer, phishing, death threats, abusive, etc)
Don't forget, we have quite a lot of eyes with a lot of stake watching the HiveDevs community for curation. Many large users enjoy supporting the developers working behind the scenes so let's make it easier for them to find quality content to support.
It is up to us all to maintain a relevant and on-topic developer community here on Hive.
Note: As of right now, HiveDevs moderators are doing so as UNPAID VOLUNTEERS. Eventually I will setup some type of compensation for active and effective moderators. Get your practice in now!
