To all the moderators! ♥

This is to all you amazing moderators out there!

First of all, I?d like to highlight what an amazing, wonderful team of listeners we have and a lovely group moderator team that?s always willing to help and be there in the group support rooms extending their hands out to help members/guests and keep our chats safe! However, in the slight case we have a few listener Group Moderators that seem to be inactive in Group Support! I don?t mean to be mean or rude in anyway whatsoever but I?m trying to get my honest point across that when we all signed up to be Group Moderators, we signed up to help others out in the Group Support rooms, I do understand and bear in mind that we do have a Community Room in which we can have lighthearted chats in to unwind and talk about our day, but I feel like some moderators have been using it a bit too much and not focusing on the real job ? the Group Moderating job that you signed up for. So if you are a Group Moderator, I have posted this is in the Group Mod Zone for you all to see..I would like for you to have a think..have I been spending too much time in the Community Room? How much have I been contributing to the Group Support? Have I been slacking off?

Personally, from my experience as a Group Moderator, I absolutely LOVE being able to help others in a group environment and reaching out to them when they are struggling..it can be daunting for some, to talk on 1-On-1?s so they reach out to us in the Group Support and talk about their feelings, sharing them with other member/guests that could possibly relate and help them out in anyway possible. I really believe in this quote: ?Every day you should reach out and touch someone. People love a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back.? ? I believe this is what 7 Cups does, especially what our Group Support room voices. We help each other out, in any way we can :)

So my fellow Group Moderators! I want to see you encouraged and in the Support Rooms with a big smile on your faces and happy ? that you?re able to help someone out by being there for them. Forget about the trolls ? I understand it can be daunting. Suicidal members/guests can be triggering and there can be many of those in there at times! But do your job and remember that 7 Cups is not a crisis resource ? if at anytime any member/guest bothers you about not helping any suicidal person that comes in refer them to this! https://www.7cups.com/memberAgreement.php ? It is the Terms of Service that they agreed to when they signed up, by checking the box on the member Sign Up page, they agreed that they will hereby enter this agreement.

Again, I promote you all to help out in the Group Support rooms! Please do not sit and wait in the Community Room..but rise in your duties as a moderator :)
