Hi Batatvideogames,
Thanks again for applying to be a janitor. We read a lot of submissions this round, and yours stood out immediately. Your mix of long-term board familiarity, cool-headed report handling examples, and the way you framed “context before delete” was exactly what we hope to see. We’re impressed and happy to say you’ve been accepted.
Janitor IRC (invite inside)
Network:
irc.rizon.netChannel: #janitors (plus your board’s private ops channel shared in orientation)
Nick: Please use “Batatvideogames” so folks can match you to the roster.
Invite token (temporary): baton-vid-9437
If you’re new to IRC, we’ll cover recommended clients and SASL in orientation. The channel topic always has the current escalation contact and tool status.
Escalation & Logging
Escalation: Use “/mod-ping” in #janitors for urgent situations (harm, live raids, legal). Otherwise, file a mod ticket with the short template (who/what/why + links).
Logging: For any non-obvious delete, add a 1-2 sentence note. Notes save headaches later and help us calibrate across time zones.
Trial Period (first 30 days)
We’ll give quick feedback in week 1, then a short written review at day 30.
Passing the trial adds you to the steady schedule, unlocks broader tool scope, and makes you eligible for special events coverage (holiday spikes, raids).
Confidentiality & Conduct
Don’t publicly discuss the dashboard, channel names, tokens, or internal decisions.
Keep all moderation talk in #janitors or your board ops channel.
If someone suspects you’re a janitor, don’t confirm; redirect them to /feedback/.
We’re excited to have you on board, Batatvideogames, your application showed judgment, restraint, and a solid feel for thread dynamics. Exactly what keeps the lights on.
