New moderators are typically added to the team when a current member is unable to continue, or when we want to expand the team to handle increased traffic. Before a new moderator can start, they must be thoroughly trained on the server's policies, procedures, and systems.
First, the new moderator will participate in a short introductory session with the existing moderators to get a sense of the server's culture and policies. They will also be provided with a comprehensive guide to the server's rules, guidelines, and systems. This guide outlines the expected behavior, the types of infractions that will be enforced, and the procedures for handling various types of situations.
During the training process, the new moderator will be given a list of specific tasks to complete in order to become fully operational. These tasks may include setting up their user account, configuring their chat settings, and reviewing the server's key systems. The new moderator will be assigned a mentor who will work closely with them to ensure a smooth transition.
It is essential that new moderators understand the server's moderation policies and procedures, and that they are familiar with the server's systems and tools. They should also be aware of the potential consequences of misusing their new powers. The new moderator will be given access to the server's training database, which contains all relevant information and resources. They will also be encouraged to ask questions and seek guidance from their mentor or other experienced moderators.
The training process is usually completed within a few days, after which the new moderator will be considered fully trained. They will be given a small group of topics to moderate, under close supervision, in order to gain practical experience and build their confidence.
