Meeting Notes:
Outcome: Passed ✅
Outcome Summary
This proposal passed, and moderator rights were limited to the taskforce (currently Kris, Alp, Dexter & Derek, with Kyle, Kevin, Kris, Scott, & Derek as Admins)
Proposal
Proposal 1: moderator rights
- Tension: Right now we have 17 moderators.
- This weekend we had our first bot social engineering its way in and @ everyone many channels. High security risk.
- Not practical when many automations & uniformity being implemented (roles, channel naming & logic...)
- Proposal: Limit moderator roles to taskforce only (atm Kris, Alp, Dexter & Derek - also Kyle, Kevin, Kris, Scott, Derek are Admins). Tackle the two main needs (creating channels & assigning roles) by giving these powers to the 'WS'-Ops role.
- Would execute on this as soon as
- ops roles powers have been reviewed/adjusted
- moderators have all been notified
- Next:
- training community managers
- hire part-time to fix possible issues, set up future automations
- Clarifying Questions
- Moderator on call? this is in the making
- Power to add to channels? yes, this is role based
- Reactions
- Kyle: Highly in favor of locking down moderator access. Cleaned up, also other people who had mod access. We can take 24h to add a bot.
- Annika: in support, before we yolo'd this
- Sean: in support, we can do all the things we need to do
- Kevin: Proposal
- Joe: support
- Philip: In support of this
- Amend & Clarify:
- You can create channels with the 'WS-Ops' channels but please don't abuse this power :)
- Objections
- no
- Proposal passed?
- Yes
