Seeking Moderators
Posted by Mat on 2 Jul 2016, 9:15 pm
Greetings, villagers! As you may have noticed we received a massive influx of players over the last day. This is far more than our little team of moderators can handle, so we're looking to expand our moderator team, and welcome some new Player Safety members! If you are interested in applying for a moderator position, please send a message to [email protected] with the following: your Furvilla username, your age, your location and time zone, your prior moderation experience, and why you'd like to be a moderator on Furvilla. Please note that we can only accept applications from players aged eighteen or older.
Also, we have a message to share from MOD-Deinmaar, the Head of Community, who would like to address some issues with our current moderators' actions:
The moderators owe the entire Furvilla Community a massive apology. The deletion of many, many threads that never actually violated the Terms of Service wasn't right of us, and we are working to rectify and retrain our team before we open the forums and chats again to make sure this is never an issue again. Miscommunication is no excuse, and we gravely apologize for the trauma this has caused many users who did absolutely nothing wrong. We sincerely hope you enjoy the rest of the site while we work diligently to right our wrongs.
Furvilla has received a much higher amount of registrations than we were prepared for and we're working to ensure our Forums and Chatrooms are welcoming to all members. Please bear with us while we hire additional help! In the meantime, if you haven't gotten a chance, please be sure to read the Newbie Guide and continue your enjoyment of the game.
Have a lovely night!
Is there any place to find all of the paintie bases? There was one on the forums, but obviously that is a no go for right now :s
If anyone could please link me to a picture of the sabertooth tiger base, that would be suuuuper helpful!
Great to see such an articulate response from the current mods and I'm very excited to see what great places this website can go lead by such a good team! <333333
I'm very glad to see the admins/mod owning up to their mistake, good on y'all! I know not a lot of browser site admins/mods will do that, and it only makes me love this site more to see that you guys will! ♥
To be fair, there was an extremely large amount of threads that had nasty comments ( and it certainly made me want to avoid the community on here ). Maybe it was for the better.
Aww im not old enough maybe when i get back to being eighteen lel the first few days here are fun ^w^

One must be 18 years or older to apply!
Great! I'm glad that you heard from us, good luck finding more moderators!
The quick response and owning of issues is very respectable, and very much appreciated in a site. I'm pleased everyone involve cares enough about this site to so quickly right any wrongs.
I'm curious though, if the forums could have not been made read-only, at the very least? That way any help threads could be accessed by the newcomers (and anyone else) who may need pointers that the wiki currently lacks? I'm unsure if this is a feature you have coded yet. Perhaps it could be a tool for future use. :)
Totally makes sense to take them down until you get things sorted out. Deleting all those threads was definitely inappropriate, but after seeing screenshots of the kind of threads that were being posted... makes me wonder how many of these kids have used a forum before. :| Anyway, good transparent response and apology! Hoping you get the mods situation figured out soon... tbh, I'm more excited about Painties coming back than the forums. I have a few I'd like to submit!
Darnit I am to young ;3;
