The Forge of Empires Team

Markp27 Ingame Moderator Since I started as a mod, I have seen the team grow and become more diverse. We have become more efficient at getting answers out to the players faster and with more precision. The basis of this is the great teamwork and communication that goes on, with everyone helping each other, from IGM's up to the CM team. We have become a well oiled machine able to help players with everything from technical issues to everyday questions of how the game works. Been a great first 6 months.

The Forge of Empires Team consists of many roles. Our core roles are:

• Community Manager & Co-Community Manager
• Ingame Moderators
• Forum Moderators
• Social Media Moderators

The Forge of Empires Team is made up of a vast mixture of dedicated players, who love to support their favorite game! The team is structured in a way that it allows those who want to get involved in different projects do so, and even step outside their comfort zones. The choice is theirs.

As part of our volunteer team we offer great opportunities to develop new and existing skills, a monthly premium bonus, plus the opportunity to join the team on an annual meet up. 

Ingame Moderator 

DWPearce Ingame Moderator My time so far as a Moderator has been great, I would say the best thing I enjoy as a moderator is the comradery within the team. The team is great to work with any problems they are always there to help when its needed. The training side of being a moderator has been well thought out and it enabled me to ask questions and iron out any problems or queries, I am looking forward to the next set of training and the meet up in June as it would be nice to put faces to names.

An ingame moderator works as part of our team, led and trained by the Community Manager or their senior team. A good team attitude is essential as we help and support each other in this sometimes stressful role. We have a good team spirit, and enjoy a lively team Skype chat where we keep up to date with the latest bugs.

Ingame Mod duties include:

• Answering questions sent in by players
  
• Detecting and testing bugs to be sent to the developers
  
• Detecting rule breaking and placing bans
  
• Helping players to appeal their bans fairly
  
• Testing game updates for bugs before they are released
  
• Be able to respond to tickets within 8 hours

Social Media Moderator

Twomsuk Senior Ingame Moderator Joining the Support team has both broadened my game knowledge, given a whole new perspective on the game and how it runs. It’s not all “happy to help” or “your banned” but it is solving the puzzles that players present to us and being part of a great team of players and a very rewarding experience.

The Social Media Moderator will implement the game’s moderation strategy on social networks like Facebook, Instagram, Twitter & Google+, ensuring a safe and legal community environment, promoting first-rate customer service and helping to build up a strong community around our game.

You will be using our cross-device tool (either on mobile or desktop) which will allow you to quickly moderate all the content created by our players on social media.

Social Media mod duties include

• Implement the community moderation practices on a daily basis, while coordinating with the Social Media Coordinator
  
• Review and moderate content within comments received to our posts & tweets, as well as on our monitored hashtags
  
• Provide direct support for easy-to-solve issues addressed by users that don’t require disclosure of personal data or redirect users to the appropriate support tool
  
• Constantly engage with the users, by answering to questions and further asking questions, in order to build as much buzz around the game as possible
  

Forum Moderator

Amy Steele Forum Administrator The forum is the beating heart of the community. Keeping it a fun and friendly place to be, without being over harsh in terms of moderating can be a challenge, but it's one that I love. Every day interacting with the community on the forum is different, every day brings fresh ideas, fun and laughter, and new challenges to meet... always something to look forward to!

As a forum mod you will be responsible for ensuring the content in the sections you cover remains within the rules and that appropriate action is taken where needed. You will also be an example for the rest of the community and you are expected to have good communication skills.

Forum mod duties include:

• Dealing with rule breaches.
• At least twice daily checking of reports.
• Offering help and advice to the community.
• Representing InnoGames on the forum.
