Welcome to the 2nd ever Debate of the Week!
___________________________________________________________________________________________________
What is Debate of the Week?
An interactive feature that lets veryone be apart of the Army of Club Penguin Congress.
How does Debate of the Week work?
Two congressment showcase their sides to an argument or debate. After the soldiers read both of their sides they vote in a poll for the one they agree with. The decision made in this poll will be taken into great consideration at the next ACP Congress meeting.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The Argument
Should all new moderators have to go through a moderator school before becoming moderators? A moderator scholl would teach aspiring moderators about when to ban a person or how out of hand arguments can be dealt with.

New Moderators SHOULD Have To Go Through Moderator School To Become A Moderator (Batintrenche’s Side)
Hey guys, it’s Batintrenche. Recently, at the last congress meeting I mentioned something that I believe could change the ACP for the better! It is a mod school. You might be comlaining at the name just because it has ‘school’ in it, but nevermind that boring stuff that you do in your elementy or middle school. But, this infact would be Brigadeer Generals and Sergent Major Generals learning from people like Generals and Master Generals.
I believe this idea would cut down on mods and make the soon-to-be mods (like myself) more experienced at it.
Here is how it would work: As soon as you become a Brigadeer General you would be automatically enlisted into Mod School. After your first month, you would be graded in a percentage by your teachers (Generals and Master Generals) and (for a Brig Gen only) if you get more than 95% you would be excepted to become a mod. If you get under 50% (still for Brig Gens only) then you would basically fail and not get a promotion. Anything in between these two and you will become a Sergent Major General. So, now on to Sergent Major Generals. It would be easier for an SMG, of course, to become a mod due to experience. So SMGs only need an 85% to become a mod.
Thank you for reading this guys!
Sincerely
~βã↑ιη↑Γéη€Ηé™
O and P.S. Any of this could be changed by; leaders, the congress, or the general public!

New Moderators Should NOT Have To Go Through Moderator School To Become A Moderator (Wolvetone’s Side)
I, WolveTone, ACP loyal Soldier, strongly believe, soldiers who have just reached over the mod line, should have the choice to go to mod school or not, Some reasons for why i feel this is right:
* First Of All, everyone over the mod rank have been in ACP for a quite a long time cause they have worked for it, and they have learnedand stl learn why mods kick and ban people, how they respect others.etc.They have learned that with their choice by going on chat and stuff.
*If you have the choice you will work alot harder, instead of compulsory, choice takes off pressure.
*Yes, Mod Schoool shows you the rules and im not saying dont go, id recommend it, but i like the leaders would like every ACP soldier to have a chance to do what they want to do.
Instead of going on about why there should be a chance given i have a few ideas which they can use if we do let them have a choice:
*Even though if you choose not to go to mod school, have on your xat name ‘Trainee Mod’, i know most soldiers do that but keep it up so everyone knows and still gives you a chance if u make a little slip.
*When the people who would not attend mod school go on xat as a mod, they would have “Trainee Mod’ in their name and if they mess with their status and go beyond the rules, an experienced mod or owner can remove their status and they can go to mod school straight away or just have ur status suspended and then return to mod school.
Thanks For Your Time and think about the speech and please consider it,
WolveTone

I believe that the people should have a right to go to the mod school or not. If they think they can handle being a mod and some of the Higher Ranked Officers think they are doing a good job that they should keep it that way. So I am voting for WolveTone’s side.
in a way i actually support wolvetones side. the “have a choice” moral is a good one.
I support Wolvetone.Mod ranks can have a choice.

Or! The moderators can simply read the rules!
Yay!
Also, even a below average IQ person can know how to kick/ban. I mean, come on. A school on how to kick and ban?
I think Batin’s and Wolve’s ideas could be merged together to make an idea with or without the option to go to moderator school. Then it would work out perfectly. Even though I think Mod School is good (Luc’s “A School To Teach Kick and Ban isn’t what it technically is :?) choice is waht ACP needs.

i support having moderator school, because mods need to know when its best to ban or kick, and for banning: how long.

I think there should be a mod school as either:
1. A choice for brigadier generals.
2. A mandatory asset for brigadier generals who have shown bad behavior in the past. (Such as myself when I was a brig gen)
3. Mods who step out of line too often. (Such as Person or Flarry)
I could also teach whatever you teach in these schools, too, if you wanted.

Packer, I agree and I have a change of thought.
What Wolvetone says has some falws.
A. What good does “Trainee Mod” do?
I mean really, are you thinking about ACP or yourself. I mean you could get away because they’ll say “Ok one more chance.” and that stuff.
B. This sounds like the “Trainee Mod” is like a Driver’s License.
😕 So you get sent to Mod School for messing up. When you get ticketed you have to do that too. Make them prepared first. Don’t even make them THINK about making the wrong mistake.
C. Wolve have you heard of “Conflicts” when owners aren’t there?
Sometimes conflicts happen when Owners AREN’T there. So nothing happens to them directly. And how many times a MONTH do we have mod conflicts. A lot actually. So they wouldn’t get their consequence fast enough.
Overall Wolve’ s Idea= C-=FAIL.
Batin has the perfect idea.
~Houndy
Well, I support both sides in a way, but I’m leaning toward Batin’s side, because some ACP mod’s stink. I’m not meaning to offend any mods here, but certain mods (Lemon and Noka!) stink!
“Technically” Technically that’s all moderators do.
I like the debates we have now. It gives soldiers more of what they think.
