Moderation Staff
Overview
The Moderators of the Total War Center forums are referred to as the "Tribounos" and can be identified as those wearing the following badge:
The Tribounos form the body which performs the vast majority of day-to-day front-line moderation, and as such may be considered the 'police' of the forums. The Moderators also have a large input into general forum policy and initiatives, although the final decisions will usually rest with the senior Staff of the Hexagon Council. Junior moderators are appointed to their position by the Senior Moderators. Earlier this year (2010), the distinction between Junior and Global Moderators was removed.

Moderator's Mace
Moderators are now rewarded for extended periods of service to staff with the Moderators Mace medal. Those that have served for a period of three months or more are awarded a Bronze Mace, those that serve for a period of six months or more are awarded a Silver Mace, and those that have served for a period of time in excess of a year are awarded the Gold Mace. However maces may be awarded to moderators sooner than the aforementioned time thresholds, at the discretion of the Administration, as rewards for outstanding performance.
