Over the years the RS community has evolved into a massive community with countless micro communities within it (ie: warring clans, skilling clans, etc [its obviously not limited to clans but they are an easy example]). And these micro communities, while being a part of the RS community as a whole, are very distinct groups with completely different playing styles.

So my question is how does the Community Management team cover the vast amount of "communities" that are within the big RS community as a whole? I mean there are around 30 of you in CM and there are countless "communities" within the community, so do you try to reach out to every micro community? or just target the larger ones that tend to involve more people?

Thanks for reading

EDIT: Thought of another question.... What are your plans for reaching out to the communities of other Jagex games? I have been playing War of Legends a lot as of late because I decided to take a small break from RS, and I have yet to see any real Jmod interaction with the players, though this could be due to time zone differences and the fact that there are numerous servers... regardless, are there any plans to expand the community areas of Jagex's other games?

With the influx of Player and Forum moderators from the "Are You Community Focused" thread, do you plan on seeking out new Player and Forum moderators differently than how it has been done for the past few years?

Are you going to open up a new Community Focused sticky, or listen to the moderator requests given to you by the current moderators? Will you continue to randomly seek players out in-game?

Are bots so advanced that Jagex cannot accurately detect them with certainty?

The answer is probably yes, but anyway, I'd like to hear what is said.

My next question. Can jagex make a bot-busting bot? All bots training skills doing bot like behaviors automatically banned. or rolled back and bank reset?

Theres maxed players botting now for christs sake.

There are many players with the question when the Player and Forum recruitment will start again. Because you're the head of Community Management, include Player and Forum Moderators; will there start a recruitment for new Moderators soon?
If it is so, can the Located Community Moderators (so, Dutch Community, Polish Community, Spanish Community, etc) choose them own Moderators for Forum.. So I mean the head of Forum Moderators won't look at the activity at the English Forums :) ?

I have a few questions I would like to ask Mod Baker011, and hopefully he will be able to answer them along with the plentiful amount of great questions I've seen so far on this thread :) .

1. What plans do you have in order to better the general image of the Community Management team, and Jagex as a whole? It is indeed expected that you strengthen relations with the community and hopefully solidify them, but is there any specific actions you personally will be making to do this?

2. As the head of Community Management, what qualities within yourself do you, or your peers, believe made you appropriate for your role at Jagex Games Studio?

3. In regards to Volunteer Moderator Recruitment, I recently saw that you mentioned there aren't any solid plans at the moment for Volunteer Moderator Recruitment to begin anytime soon. Is there any reason, such as legal reasons, for this? Also, as another player previously mentioned, the forums seem to be in a greater need of Forum Moderators, so will you, Mod Baker011, address this concern sometime soon?

4. In regards to Volunteer Moderator Recruitment again, will you be taking any new steps to prompt inactive Player Moderators and Forum Moderators to participate more in their area of choice, whether it be in-game or in the forums, or will we continue to see inactive volunteer moderators?

I'm specifically referring to some Forum Moderators, who, strangely, have not posted in the last five or six months, yet claim to continue to be a Forum Moderator.

5. Will you be reaching out to any new fan-sites sometime soon, and if so, how will you strengthen fan-site relations?

6. Will there any introductions of new community forums within the RuneScape Forums? For example, will there be a new language forum, such as a Hindi forum for Indian players, or perhaps an English-speaking forum for players from the Indian subcontinent?

Thank you very much for your time, Mod Baker011 and friends at Jagex :) .

Best regards,

~Vandite
Just your friendly neighborhood team player.

as asked before, I'm just wondering if there will be any new forum moderators, the current ones are excellent, but occasionally they look a little overworked, especially if there are spam posting sessions for threads and the like? I just think that it might re-leave some pressure on the current team for keeping "up-to-date" with threads that need help

Hello,

I've got some questions, too.

1. Do you think that there should be more Community-Manager for each language? Are there any plans to create more language-forums (for example chinese-forums or something else)?

2. Why did you join Jagex? Do you think that it was a good decision to join Jagex?

3. If there is one thing, that you could change by clapping your hands, what would it be?

4. There is a crystall ball in which you can see Jagex in 10 years. What would >you< see? ;)

5. Are there any plans for FunOrb? Update it? Close it?

6. The last Postbag was released on 14.2.2011. Are there any plans for a new Postbag?

7. Will there be more volunteer moderators in the near future?

Sorry if there are any questions that have been asked before.

Cheers,
Pentzel

Hi Mod Baker011. :)

1. What happened to the previous 10 Mod Bakers?

2. What areas of community management do you think needs to be improved the most? It would be nice to hear the first few actions you will be taking in your new role.

3. What's your favourite thing to do on runescape?

Thanks :P

May I ask 4 question? :)

You mentioned you'll be on the forums, don't you think there's loads of forum Mods and Jagex Mods helping out, do you manage them all? Is it hard work? :D

Are you based on RuneScape only?
Do you do Fun0rb, 8Realms and other Jagex games as well?

Do you do accept any suggestions from players, some good ones that can help the community?

Will there be any future Player/Forum Mods helping out? Because I think when new ones come in, there will be too much? Will some that doesn't log in be out of their job?

Are you the one that crowns Player/Forum Mods? Previously, it was Mod Calm, do you think you can fulfil this role as well as him? :O (not to say you won't, I'm sure you will be great!)
