“Since the implementation of our new rules and automation, our daily backlog is a small handful of things that require specific, non-standard mediation. Post and comment reviews follow a pretty standard set of checklist items, while reports and modmail interactions are vetted through our Discord for a mod team consensus on a course of action and to take note of how the issue was resolved for future issues.”
They continued: “Our insights over the last 2 weeks have increased exponentially and user feedback has been mostly positive. We as a mod team listen to user feedback and take away lessons learned to improve the overall experience, when we can. At the end of the day, all of our mods are volunteers with different things happening in their lives and we take pride in providing everyone with a safe space to have a little fun and challenge each other.”
Our ability to spot hidden objects is going to vary a lot depending on who we are as people. Obviously, in real life, someone who’s got 20/20 eyesight, is well-rested and has the focus of a hawk on the hunt will have an easier time seeing hidden details.
Now, compare them to someone who’s exhausted, easily distracted, and has to wear prescription lenses. Many objects would probably elude the latter person. So, it’s impossible to discount a person’s advantages, whether due to their luck with genes or discipline to lead a healthy lifestyle.
However, another huge part of our observation skills comes down to life or professional experience. When we’re intimately familiar with the subject matter, we can spot it more easily, no matter the context.
