Title: becoming a moderator
Post by: a fan on March 13, 2005, 08:06:15 PM
How does one become a moderator?


Title: Re: becoming a moderator
Post by: jarmo on March 13, 2005, 08:09:58 PM
That's a question I get asked quite often here.

Here's the official answer: I pick people who I think could be moderators and then ask them.

None of the current moderators has asked me in advance.


The moderators are also people who have been visiting this board for quite a while so they know how this thing works.

A. We're not adding moderators at the moment.

B. I don't know you well enough to consider you as a moderator. In other words, you haven't been around that long.

C. You asked first.

D. See above.

So if someone asks to be a moderator, they automatically can't be one? :no:

What about later on when you do need moderators and I've been around?

Jarmo- I only have one week to live, as I ate Fugu (Japanese Fish) that wasn't cooked properly, so can I be a Moderator, Please?!?!

No, but think about it. None of the current moderators have asked me.

Who knows. I'm not psychic.

You should be an admin for that. ;)

I find it amazing how so many people want to become a moderator so badly. Apart from having the utmost privilege of being hated by hundreds of people and not even being paid for it, I can't see many advantages to that situation.
Oh yeah, of course it allows you to vent your bad mood on poor unsuspecting members, but that's about it.

I want to be a moderator very badly so I can use it on my resume. I find that a BA from UMass Boston just isn't cutting it in the job market :rant: ...

But being a moderator at the most prestigious Guns N' Roses board on the net might give me the extra edge that could get me into Harvard Law School...

I was a Moderator at about 3 different sites which did have it's perks, at this site I cannot see what the real perks would be.  Being a moderator is quite a bit of work mind you.  Not just anyone can be one.  The bad ones don't last long.  Enjoy being on this site first before wanting to do all the work behind it.

Being a moderator isn't great all the time though...

One time...I went to the bathroom, to wash, after dinner, and I found my flannel, in the toilet. Another time, I went, into the toilet and all the brisles, bar one, had been cut off from my toothbrush. Another time, Chris put bleach in my shaving cream, and...jarmo stiffled a giggle.

If nobody gets that joke (read: reference), I'm not going to be friends with any of you.
