(Obv for 18+ users)

This is ridiculous, and by this I mean ATR. With the spam, and inappropriate content.

I mean, it's better in the day time when Gordon, Noble, ChiefJustus or other mods are actively on the forums.
But at night, it's a desolate playground for 13 year olds to run rampant with their nonsense.

'Moderation bot' (CDs content, but does not issue bans...kinda like most forum mods) leaves '[ Content Deleted ] ' threads intact. BUT it is not active until every community staff member is offline (So I've noticed).

Since the system no longer automatically bans users (Many people were deleted by the system, or got ridiculous bans from it, and poof! appeals@roblox.com was born), repeat offenders will keep posting until a mod/admin is online to review the report and issue a justified ban.

ROBLOX forum mods were so useful, and as I recall, Gordon was a volunteer mod at one point.

(If you guys didn't know, only certain mods/admins can issue site bans, but ALMOST every mod/admin may delete content that is inappropriate)

Yes, they do.

Spam threads wouldn't even be up for 30 seconds.

I disagree that we need volunteer moderators. All moderators should moderate as a paid job, and thus be expected to adhere to a work schedule to ensure consistent and comprehensive moderation coverage. I do think we need more paid moderators, though.

Also, there is always at least one moderator online. However, they may not necessarily be actively browsing the forums 24/7. There is proactive moderation, browsing the site for inappropriate content, and reactive moderation, responding to abuse reports. Both are important.

Volunteer mods? How about new mods.
The mods arent doing the job they are paid to do good.
They have been slacking off these past months.

This is a great idea. Having volunteer mods would be a great new thing to bring back. I don't think I was around when this option was open. But it sounds like it was good. As someone said, I don't remember who, '8 year olds would apply and abuse admin powers,' they wouldn't be able to do that. The people applying for this place as a volunteer mod would have to show ID, Birth Certificate, etc. So that issue would not come up.
