SeptimoRP Moderators

The community votes in the SeptimoRP moderator team. We are here to offer support and guidance and ensure no one needs a boot up their backsides! Each moderator can also boot on IMVU, and each one works together to provide a safe and fun environment for each roleplayer to write in! Moderators volunteer their own time collectively to support, chat control, and keep peace, but they spend most of their time joining in with roleplay. On this page, there will be a list of the moderator's responsibilities towards the community, but most importantly, you get to meet the team!

## Meet the Captains

#### **Anju (IMVU: AnjuAequitas/RiverAequitas)**

I am the creator of SeptimoRP. I created my first Septimo campaign in September 2014 and have since expanded on the story throughout the years. Making it into the beautiful and chaotic experience it is today! I am in a UK timezone, but I work night shifts! Luckily for you, I can bring my laptop to work, and I can primarily focus on admin work and moderating roleplay while working in the background! I need attention from the community to get me through the long hours <3 I dedicate a lot of my time to Septimo, expanding the lore and working on current campaigns and stories to make all of the beautiful characters come to life! Away from this, I'm just a hyperactive ball of anxiety who has an obsession with dinosaurs and coffee! I am here to answer all of your questions about Septimo and the World of Morpheus, and I have an excellent moderator team whose DMs are open for you to reach out to if you need some help!

#### **Tess/Sin/Cammy (IMVU: LegendAequitas)**

Hey guys, I'm Tess/Sin/Cammy. I'm 28 with a lovely 3 year old daughter. I'm usually really open and outgoing so feel free to ask away. My favorite colors are blue, black and purple and I'm very much a cat person. My DM's are always open so feel free to pop in if you need to ask something or just want conversation. I do work the graveyard shift which means I'm on an opposite schedule than most of the other mods but I do try to reply ASAP. As a moderator, my goal is to be approachable and as helpful as I can be. Anything you need, I'll do my best to get it figured out. I might not be as active in chat as other mods but I'm always trying to be available when needed.

## Moderator Responsibilities

#### OOC Roles and Responsibilities

* Moderate chat channels and IMVU chat rooms to ensure Rules and Etiquettes are being followed.
* Ensure the OOC environment is welcoming.
* Moderate the flow of roleplay and ensure OOC is taken elsewhere.
* Diffuse OOC tension and abstain from taking sides. If tension continues to escalate, the moderator has the right to shut down a conversation – if it escalates further, a temporary ban can be applied.

#### Roleplay Roles and Responsibilities

* Offer assistance with any questions regarding the roleplay.
* Direct players to me with questions on lore, story building, or character building.
* Moderate combat and abilities to ensure they do not breach the roleplay guidelines to overpowered content.
* Mediate a scene to ensure all players are being included.

#### Discord/Website Roles and Responsibilities.

* Help manage discord roles, including adding character names and usernames.
* Add -end scene- to discord threads if there are no responses after 48 hours.
* Aid with spelling and grammar

The captain team works as an extension to me; they are not figures of authority. The captain team is roleplayers who ensure things are not escalated. The captain team will not…

* Offer constructive feedback
* Permanently Ban, kick, or remove a player.
* Review new characters, storylines, or missions.
* Void interactions or scenes within the roleplay.

#### Should an incident happen?

Where the incident occurs will be put on a temporary hold and ‘shut down’ until relaxed and moderated. Screenshots will be gathered, and hostile parties will be temporarily removed. I will approach all parties involved to get everyone’s input and ensure everyone is relaxed and satisfied. I will talk with the captain team to get an unbiased opinion. However, the final decision is mine. Only when the final decision has been made will the chat/roleplay be reinstated.
