Alrighty, I haven’t actually commented on the site in years, but I believe I need to add on to the disgust everyone is feeling for this notion:
Do you have any idea how many petty people are actually on FH? There have been cases where new players have been blocked by entire groups, just for watching the RP, never saying anything, never approaching, just enjoying the story.
“Mod yourself” sounds a bit more like you’re giving a group of toddlers a stick of lit dynamite each to run around with, as well as knives, scissors, and any other object that could be potentially dangerous to themselves, as well as others.
In this case, YES—by all means—babysit this community. You are a member of the staff for a reason, and I can assure you that that reason is not to give people who would definately abuse this system incentive. I can assure you that when the mods return, if this is implemented, there will be no game to return to, as many loyal members will have been banned, all because of a “test”.
