Description of Roles
- Descriptions below have been taken from this post by Commissar Caligula_
Hexagon Council (Administration)
The Hexagon Council or ‘Hex’ are the main body which performs the day-to-day administration of Total War Center and its forums. They are the highest rank of staff on Total War Center and can be contacted should you have any concerns or questions that you feel other staff cannot answer.
If you wish to suggest new features for Total War Center, please refer to the Questions & Suggestions fora.
They can be identified by the following badge:
Moderation
Moderators form the body which performs the vast majority of day-to-day front-line moderation and they work to ensure the Terms of Service are upheld. Global Moderators are Moderators who have moderating powers over most forums on TWC. While regular Moderators usually only moderate one forum or set of forums (e.g. the M2TW forums), Global Moderators are trusted with moderating powers in most forums. They are chosen from existing Moderators and share a badge with other Moderators.
If you wish to appeal a decision made by a moderator, refer to the Tribunal or the Praetorium.
Moderators can be identified by the following badge:
Technical Staff
Total War Center's Technical Staff fix technical problems on the site, ensure that it runs smoothly and may add, configure or remove features if necessary.
If you wish to conduct informed technical discussions related to TWC's software, hardware, or similar issues, refer to the Technical Bazaar. For things like "Why doesn't this feature work?" or "I found something wrong", please use Questions & Suggestions instead.
They can be identified by the following badge:
Tribunes
The Tribunes form the Tribunal, a body which exists to provide those members of TWC who have been punished by the Moderation Branch with a place to request the reversal of their punishment. This is in no way a guarantee that the punishment will be removed, but every case presented will be reviewed by a panel of three judges. Tribunes are appointed by Hex to serve indefinitely, and are answerable only to GrnEyedDvl.
If you wish to appeal a decision made by a moderator, refer to the Tribunal and the Tribunes will judge your case.
They can be identified by the following badge:
