GamingHerd is a community of trusted games. Therefore, it makes sense to have the community drive the moderation.

Keywords

• Lobby: Consists of a fixed group of players that will partake in matches. A lobby can be as many matches as your group of players want to continue playing with the run it back feature.
• Match: A game played between the players in a lobby.

Herd Honor

• A numeric (integer) rating that starts from 0.
• Has no limits.
• Always publicly transparent.
• Positive feedback gives a +1.
• Negative feedback gives a -1.
• If your Herd Honor goes < -50, you will receive an automatic lifetime ban.

Feedback

• Simply just an upvote or downvote, nothing else.
• You can leave feedback under the following conditions:
  • Only after all matches in a lobby have ended.
  • You can only leave feedback for players who were part of the same lobby.
  • You can leave feedback for each player in the lobby, but only once per person per lobby.
  • You can leave feedback for the same person again only after 3 days, across any lobby.

Manual Moderation

• Any blatant type of toxicity that is reported or seen will be acted on by the GamingHerd team.
  • Cheating - lifetime ban
  • Racism, sexism, discrimination - lifetime ban
  • Throwing - lifetime ban
  • Herd Honor abuse - lifetime ban

[Coming soon] Positive reinforcement

• Have a leaderboard (i.e. top 100) for the people with the top ratings.
