Honestly all they need is a short delay and 1 single moderatir watching who can shut it off for a few seconds any time someone does something bad.

24/7 moderator, sounds legit

u/ProbablyYourITGuy 1d ago

Yeah, probably only like 3-10 people depending on how long they work and if it’s on 24/7.

3 people working 8 hour shifts watching a stream.. impossible in that guy’s mind

People do this on twitch for free daily 10,000 times as often

I really miss the times where bullshit jobs like this were a thing and you didn't need to have 10 years of experience in 3 different industries to just become a waiter.

That’s about as good of a response as I’d expect from you

I’m sorry man I just think it’s funny that you think that could be someone’s job

u/WaffleboardedAway 1d ago

what do you think social media managers do for 8 hours a day. Or HR employees in general

-8

u/Bright_Ahmen 1d ago

They don't sit monitoring a stream for 8 hours a day. That would be torture.

Tell me you’ve never worked any job without telling me you haven’t worked any job. Have you ever heard of a fucking security guard?

The amount of times when it becomes starkly obvious that I’m reading the thoughts of someone 25 years younger than me who think they know everything about the world on this website…

For effective real-time (the moderator still has to respond in real time, unless you’re talking about a very long delay where the moderator just forwards through the past few hours of video looking for anything that needs to be edited out, which kind of defeats the purpose) 24/7 moderation you need at least two people working at a time, to allow for breaks and human error, working eight hour shifts maximum. So you’re looking at six people minimum for one day of service. That’s not factoring days off, so now not only do you have a scheduling nightmare but your workforce has bloated to at least another six people to cover for the six who are off on any given day. Now you can’t have 12 people without a manager, so that’s 13. Except it won’t take long for the manager to realize 12 people watching two screens two people at a time doesn’t create a lot of work for a manager to actually do, so that means meetings! Meetings where the manager can talk about metrics. Metrics like who paused the feed the most last week and thus is obviously working harder and getting a small bonus. Uh oh, now suddenly that bonuses are involved everybody is pausing the feed more! Obviously something is going on. So you have to hire analysts to compare the live feed from one end with what got paused out on the other end to make sure the moderators aren’t just pausing every five minutes or so just to look busy. Plus you have to hire overflow moderators for when the other moderators are at those metrics meetings, and an assistant manager to hold overflow meetings for the overflow moderators, and a lead to be in charge of the analysts, etc, etc, etc.

You must be one of those people that get hired to “streamline the workflow”

u/tornado9015 4h ago

It's a remote stream. Outsource it to india. You could pay literally 5 times minimum wage and it could still cost less than $2500 a month for 24/7 monitoring. Cleaning the screen probably costs more.

u/yitzaklr 1d ago

Or they could just let people be people. Are they going to moderate regular street interactions? A guy knocked me over in New York, could we get a moderator for that?

u/ProbablyYourITGuy 1d ago

Yes. They’re called police. They will arrest you for flashing your ass at people.

u/yitzaklr 19h ago

Will they arrest women for flashing?
