I do not dislike any of the people I name in this post. I am simply pointing out a serious flaw / serious flaws in how moderators are chosen.

Today (I think) mod applications were opened. Hotorchi, a old contributor to the community made an "honest" application that was reviewed and I assume declined.

Probably reasons for that, right? But today, Sad_Ness became an in-game moderator, likely the first to be chosen out of all the new applications. In the Discord, this happened when he joined:



Possible that the source of the information isn't too reliable, right? Well how about from the person himself?



Well. Bought Jopede 100 dollars worth of Steam games after he becomes moderator. Not suspicious at all. Hah. Also, there are even more messages of this on the discord. I'll add more if replies say to.

Looking back at it, this happened last week even. Kevinplas suddenly became wikia and chat mod. Why? He literally has 20 edits, joined later than me on the wikia... Oh wait!



Doesn't explain anything, right?

Oh, and CoolRPG became chat moderator too. Today. Says he applied. Many messages saying he paid like the other two, but plain evidence is better in this case.

It's absolutely ridiculous that those who buy stuff for Jopede are automatically made moderator of the wikia and sometimes in-game, if you buy him $100 worth. There's absolutely no reason for that, and stupid. Nothing in the moderator application states "oh buy me stuff and you'll get automatically accepted". At this rate, the most cancerous members of the community could get stuff for the admins and get mod. Even if they haven't contributed at all, like Kevin.

Place's choices for mod like in December - MeskyTwo, InfiniteBread, and Rockynic. All good members of the community.

Those who are chosen for a moderator position today - CoolRPG (semi-active contributor), Kevinplas (basically newbag), and Sad_ness (rank 21, also joined later than me on the wikia). ???

Reasoning for this can be provided. Proof of the new mods not doing this is absolutely needed. Proof that they actually even sent in a half decent application is needed. This is not right.
