| | My Staff Survey Results (and my take on them!) | |
hey wcc! o/ as I'm sure you're all aware, there's been quite a bit going on recently (on wcc, in real life, school, etc.) and things can get pretty rough at times. with that being said, I feel that it would be beneficial for me to share (as well as address) the results that I received on the recent Staff survey. I've split them up into their own little categories below for ease of viewing. I assure you that these are the exact quotes from the survey, and I didn't meddle with anything said in them (for whatever reason the screenshots I originally attached were extremely low quality, so I switched over to quoting instead.) I will say that there are a few comments left on my part of the survey that wouldn't be appropriate to address in an announcement such as this, but I'm willing to be transparent with anyone who wants to know what's up. feel free to dm me if you've got any questions or additional feedback! statistical results: - general moderator duties:
I think these results are pretty good! definitely going to continue to keep an eye on things and try my best to make sure everything is running smoothly.
- roleplay activity stats:
I generally like to see my results for this section (and the social activity one) have a trend toward the 5s, so I'll definitely work on a better posting schedule and get things done faster when possible.
- social activity stats:
overall I'm pretty satisfied with these results, and I can only improve from here! :D
comments/feedback: - handling of arguments/conflict:
- Quote :
- Prior to adding Ripped and Lemon to Staff, Maple appeared to more or less be the more dominantly active moderator on the team. Tends to be a little bit hit-or-miss with handling any sort of arguments or conflicts that appear in the server/on the site, but that usually seems to stem from a lack of availability more than anything else.
so, in terms of the comment on being hit-or-miss when it comes to handling conflict, I think it's certainly fair to say that I can seem a bit absent at times. I do have to agree with it mostly being attributed to availability, but from here on out, I'll be sure to step in whenever I can to prevent any larger-scale drama from taking place. (also, I'm not part of the dark-hours-18+ channel on discord on account of being 16, so I can't step in if anything were to happen there, unfortunately.) The Staff team has implemented more tools on the discord for moderators to use (at our discretion) to prevent these conflicts from happening as well as putting a stop to things that may be out of hand, and we're hoping that this will help to solve this particular issue.
- miscommunications:
- Quote :
- she's usually pretty good at her job, tbh; a little prone to miscommunication but most of staff seems to be, so i can't really count it against her
this is fair as well! communication (between staff as well as other members) is gonna be the biggest thing I'll work on until the next survey when we'll hopefully get updates on how we're doing. I've already been working on this the best I can by making sure I'm as clear as I can be, as well as being direct. additionally, I'll try to give a better explanation/reasoning whenever required. I've tried my best to make sure everyone knows my inbox is always open for questions/concerns etc, and that still stands!
- unapproachability:
- Quote :
- Maple just seems... unapproachable. They can seem cold and unfriendly at times. It's not much evidence but I think at least something needs to change.
I do my best to be as warm and friendly as possible, and I never intend to seem unapproachable at all. if I'm being completely honest, I'm not sure what else to do in terms of approachability as an individual, but I'll continue to try my best to be as welcoming and amiable as I can. I think addressing the survey results is certainly a good step toward better approachability, and I'll be on the lookout for other ways to improve as well.
- miscellaneous:
- Quote :
- Always willing to help out, super cool person and mod. Knows more about CSS than me, which is useful.
- Quote :
- You’ve really really improved and have gotten a lot more active recently, you’re doing amazing!
- Quote :
- Really sweet member, always willing to help when it is ever needed and a great Rper
this is really just positive feedback, so nothing to really address! thank you guys for the love! <3
alrighty! with all of those out of the way, I did want to say that every member of WCC is welcome to pm/dm me if they feel the need to, whether it's about recent events, the survey results, if you've got a question or concern, or just want to talk! my inbox will always be open and as mentioned earlier, I'm willing to be fully transparent to anyone who reaches out. you guys can look forward to an announcement from all of Staff shortly, addressing the more broad survey results intended for all of us. let me know if there's anything else I can do! ______________________________________ ♛ Site Baby Sister ♛ | Briarthorn | Nightbird | Smudgepaw | | T5 SkC Warrior | T2 SkC Warrior | WC Apprentice | |
