Don't you have to be in front of a computer all day long to be a mod?

The secret to becoming a Mod is you must first not want to be one.
You fail at the first test. |

Thanks for volunteering. The general procedure is to move existing Mods from lesser trafficked forums to more highly trafficked forums. So, the demand for new Mods is minimal. Of course, any Mod applicant will be thoroughly vetted by Staff, so there is that complication to consider. IIRC, a couple of Mod applicants squeaked through with a warning or maybe two, but nothing more serious than that. Longevity and post count are also factored into the equation. Mods are expected to be on-site daily in their respective forum(s), It's not an easy job to do right, and occasionally, a Mod is let go as not being able to do the job properly, for various reasons. Unfortunately, the position for which you are applying does not exist. The closest position would be Staff, and that position is only open to people who are already Mods, and deemed worthy to be promoted to a vacant Staff position. This not only requires vetting by existing Staff, but approval by Site Admin. Unfortunately, there are no Staff vacancies at present, and even if there were such, pre-existing Mods, who had already proven themselves, would have preference. That's only common sense, and also fair to all concerned. But thank you again for your interest. After having looked at your account in the Ban and Warning list, I regret to say that you would not be considered a suitable candidate for a Mod position on this site. View Quote I have a serious question: Have you ever been diagnosed with aspergers? You just typed up a super serious and well thought out reply to what was obviously a total tongue in cheek post that didn't ask for it, nor require it. If you have, I don't mean any offense by it. |

I have it on good authority that I am next to be considered for a moderator position. My even headed stance on all issues ARF, and the fairness to which I judge all members, has me in good standing with the powers that be.

I'm squeaky clean.
And everyone loves me. It's true just ask . . . um, nevermind. I would make a great mod. I have no pesky "job" to get in the way anymore. Plus I spend a lot of time in hospital rooms with nothing else to do. Of course some of them block ARF, but I'm usually unconscious anyway . |

This job ain't nearly as cool as it sounds. View Quote QFT I admin'd a large car board for some time. After that, I think I'd rather remove my own liver with a dull spoon than deal with the whiney ass drama bullshit that goes with the mod gig. And believe it or not, board advertisers were some of the worst. These days, I appreciate being able to just log on and only read the stuff I want while having the luxury of ignoring the retards. |

I edit stuff all the time. I lock relatively few threads because non-spam dupes aren't really a COC violation...and believe it or not that's the most oft reported thing I see.

Quoted: Meanwhile I got to try out the new ban button within 24 hours of it showing up. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: The other technical forums are mostly boring to Mod. Most "Reports" are about "Not technical" or "Wrong forum". Most of my time is simply moving threads to the correct forums. Very seldom do we give out Warnings. I like boring.
