this is not really a problem exclusively to SS14 community but every community
and IRL administration’s too
the more people there are in a community the faster work piles up more than any human can process because its faster to make a post than it is to moderate and check it
but the more staff members there are in a community the more difficult it is to moderate the moderation staff that moderates the game
It’s really a paradox the more players>more staff needed to moderate>more staff to moderate staff>need more staff to moderate the staff that moderates staff
I think things are manageable for now, but the more players join the more moderation work there will need to be and the paradox begins, and it will be hell
there will come a point where the game becomes impossible to moderate due to the sheer number of players there will be either there’s going to be a limit/whitelist to how many people can play the game
or
someone comes up with a world class superhuman godlike genius system for this scaling problem without adding more staff members allowing a small team with minimal time to moderate large populations without drawbacks in a small amount of time so someone can actually have a life while also being an admin staff
I think there has to be some preparations/solution in case of something like a new player’s boom happens.
