Disseminate and "dumb down" patch notes so the end user can understand them. Pass on bug reports and a list of nuisance users Final oversight on forum (and in my case) in game banns Pass on suggestions from the community to the dev team (Usually done weekly via a top ten system including links to original post and a brief description of the suggestion) *If we, the CM, does not like you, you don't have a change of getting a suggestion in* Post the occasional snarky remark (you try dealing with hundreds of assholes every day, not being able to actually tell them to just -blam!- off and see how snarky you get) Defuse tension be either intervening on the side of an argument, or silent ban (even been unable to post or get notifications for no reason? that is a silent ban), or with a joke or snarky remark to distract.... you're bitching at the CM so your not bitching at each other. Troll. Oh boy do we troll, from a personal or second account, we troll the ever loving hell out of people (but never being abusive) to blow off steam. The job has nothing to do with passing on info,or making you all happy, at it's core it is being the punching bag for the community to stop them killing each other, the other duties are secondary
