I wanted to concept an idea that would be helpful for asset developers, especially those of clothing and whatnot.
What I’d love to see is a system that identifies trusted users to bypass the moderation queue for their uploads. This would help recurring uploaders get their assets out sooner without waiting for things to pend.
Of course, this is just an idea, and it’s not flawless.
Users that could be allowed to bypass the pend would be determined on many different angles:
- Years on ROBLOX (Veterans badge?) would help determine that the user is familiar with rules.
- Little or no moderation history in the past (taking in account for appeals)
- Quantity of content uploaded over time (if there’s lots, would this would help speed up other moderation?)
- Quality of assets (are any past assets sketchy?)
- ROBLOX subscription / membership / rbxdev / devex / employee status
- Reputation (is the user known for flaming / toxic attitude / potential system abuse)
- other things
A system like this could benefit both users and moderation staff, with trusted users being able to bypass the system, it will reduce some of the load of content moderators need to go through (as far as time goes, anyway), and would allow users to not have to wait anywhere from 5 minutes to 8 hours on a given day for a asset to be approved.
Alternatively, the system could be changed to allow for assets from trusted users to be uploaded and approved automatically after upload, but remain in the queue, and if the moderation team later sees it and revokes it, then it would become unavailable then after - and future use of the system could be revoked aswell.
Identifying of these uses could be seen as a ROBLOX badge that would tell the public they are trusted by moderation, or another form of discreet personal identification, as to not let the public know of this and have them exploit the users abilities to bypass moderation.
I don’t know, it seems like a neat idea that I’ve been thinking of.
I suppose methods of determining these users could range from applications on the forums, to automated allowance based on moderation history and asset bulk. But of course a system that would be fair for everyone would be up to ROBLOX,
What do you think?
- This is useful and beneficial
- This is pointless and destructive
