Welcome to Gaia! ::

GGN Crew/Moderators
In a GGN guild, the Captain, Vice Captain, and Crew are the main moderators for that particular GGN forum. Gaia's official moderators should only be needed when Gaia's TOS is being violated and the GGN guild's Crew fails to enforce it.

Q: What can a Crew Member do?
A: Crew can delete posts, delete topics, post stickies, post announcements, edit posts, lock/unlock topics, invite users to the guild, accept join requests to the guild, and ban users from the guild.

Q: What can a Captain do?
A: The captain can do everything Crew can do in addition to being able to edit the guild settings, edit the front page of the guild, promote users, transfer guild ownership, and join the Captain's Guild.

Q: What can a Vice Captain do?
A: A Vice Captain can do everything a captain can do! A Vice Captain is like a co-owner. Make sure your Vice Captain is someone you can TRUST.

Q: Why can a Vice Captain transfer ownership?
A: There have been many cases where guilds lost their captains to bannings or because they quit. Having a Vice Captain that can change ownership ensures that the guild can live on. You don't need to have a Vice Captain, but its a good way to ensure you'll never get stuck without a Captain.

Q: What is the difference between Crew Log and Captain Log?
A: Crew logging shows deleted posts, deleted threads, and permission changes. The Captain log shows Guild name changes, and guild ownership changes. The crew log is for guild crew members to monitor each other's moderation activity. The Captain log is for Gaia moderators to trace activity in case their involvement is required in resolving a guild conflict.
