The trolls and the disruptive people think that they’re new. They think it’s a new thing to stand in front of a stage and turn around and jerk off in front of everyone with hand gestures, and they think they’re inspired.
The question of where users can be given full autonomy and where they should be monitored has been debated for almost two decades. Understanding the behavior of "avatars" in the digital space is more complicated than in real life. A security guard in a public place has enough clear reasons to ask a guest to leave the premises or permanently ban him from the place.
The question of where users can be given full autonomy and where they should be monitored has been debated for almost two decades. And there is still no answer. “Educators in VR” company holds dozens of virtual events each month and assigns a team of moderators to oversee each. They've seen it all in their four years on the job.
It can be challenging to identify the offender alone, so the moderators communicate with each other through an audio service like Discord. That way, they warn each other about suspicious users and decide if the "avatar" ignores the rules or not. After all, he can wander from side to side, not because he wants to annoy someone, but simply because his system is "glitchy".
Some users are not technically savvy and do not know that even their most straightforward actions in the real world are reflected in the virtual world. For example, going from standing to sitting, a character can "punch" the digital floor and rise into the air when standing up. If a person is inept at using a headset, he or she may accidentally make the "avatar" scurry around the room.
There are too many nuances, so Educators in VR determines the severity of moderation depending on the event. At entertainment parties, moderators intervene only in extreme cases, and group meditation sessions have a "zero tolerance" policy. There, an "avatar" can be banned simply for walking around annoyingly much.
