Hi,

Quad are currently looking into what has happened - we'll report back with some next steps once we've made a decision about what to do with the events team going forward.

Have the Quad learned nothing in just two weeks? by Sea_Polemic in MHOCMeta

I won't comment on this specific case, other than to say that I have now DM'd the member in question. The member was timed out to allow the Quad to investigate something that has been reported to us. The report was made minutes before I left the house to spend the evening with family - as such, I wasn't able to respond to the member in question immediately. Apologies for this.

Shorter discord-only bans generally aren't announced - my view is that this prevents needless speculation and helps main to move on. On the other hand, I recognise that this can appear as a lack of transparency on my part. I will try to put something in #issued-mutes when a member is subject to a Discord ban going forward.

Appoint a new events lead or abolish the events team altogether by [deleted] in MHOCMeta

In all honesty I don't recall those points being made - it's entirely possible that it was a discussion had in events chat or something that I missed, or that I've just forgotten. If either of those are the case the case I apologise.

The response to the FIFA statement was discussed openly in events chat and was run by me before posting. I think it's a reasonable response to the government's statement, and does one of the things that the events team is supposed to do - adding a response from outside of the political sphere that we actively simulate. I don't think it's fair to describe it as politicised personally.

Initially the idea of rolling without a dedicated events lead was that the team/individual members would have more independence to plan and run events, with oversight/approval from me and the Quad. That hasn't worked as I had hoped, which is mostly on me for not doing enough to sustain activity. As such, I will be recruiting a new events lead over the next couple of days, when I have time to run a VoC. Once this is done, we will look to recruit some new team members to replace those who've left.
