Camus Posted July 20, 2002 Share Posted July 20, 2002 I just have a stupid question... This is the place to put it... Why would anyone want to be a mod??? to much work and no pay... I have fun just sitting here posting left and right... but being a mod means you have to sit there and work wall you post... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Groovy Posted July 20, 2002 Share Posted July 20, 2002 Originally posted by Yoda_623 I think everything you just said is the complete opposite of a definition of a forum mod.

SPY_jmr1 Posted July 20, 2002 Share Posted July 20, 2002 #1 To become a mod, dont post a thread on becoming a mod #2 we take cash #3 you dont HAVE to do number two but it would be appreciated #4 contact an administrator and flirt...huh... I mean talk with him. Get an other moderator to vouch/back you up. #5 dont contact me. Its not up to me to pick moderators. #6 read number five again #7 read number two again Originally posted by Boba Rhett *digs around for Sherack's old list* __________________________________________________ 1) Make good posts. Encourage intelligent discussion, not spamming. It's the best way to become a mod AND a valuable member here. 2) There has to be a demand. We don't promote mods for fun here, there must be positions open. 3) Be available. If you can only get online once a week, it's pretty pointless to promote you to moderator. 4) Type well. Although this is facultative, we favor people who use correct punctuation and grammar in their posts. __________________________________________________ And uhh... number 2 on Jackal's list works wonders too. what they said. I know I am now your new toy to bash around... I dont mind, thats the point... I really dont know HOW exactly I managed to get here... I am guessing dumb luck... but it might have been number 2 on the other hand.... to recap, " I AM A WONDERFULL PERSON, GIMME" does not help you any... before I became a mod, think, what did you NOT see... in fact, you had no warning whatsoever... the best kind:D edit: also, rhett, where is that list from? I would like to see the source, if I can... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Camus Posted July 20, 2002 Share Posted July 20, 2002 Originally posted by SPY_jmr1 no really, I warned him about posting junk threads... pls dont do anything to him.... After awhile of reading what he was putting I just started to ignor him... Some of the stuff he puts makes no sence what so ever to me... So I go on and act like hes not there... you DO know there is a forum ignore function, right? SPY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-[MotU]-Lyger|=- Posted July 20, 2002 Share Posted July 20, 2002 i dont like any the moderators, cause if you give people a little bit of power and they take it to there heads(HEY! you can get mad at me for showing my opinions!!!)the only people who i think deserve to be mods are those 2 peeps with over 8000 posts.

But Post count has nothing to do with it. They look at quality, not quantity. (man, that's way too over used. Mods: come up with a better saying! ) They also look for people who are dedicated or whatever....... ANyways, I don't know of the first MOD that has let the power go to their head. I think that they do their job, and people get mad about it. But it's not the mod's fault, they where just doin their job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boba Rhett Posted July 20, 2002 Share Posted July 20, 2002 Well I love you too, Lyger. It hilarious that you think post count is a qualifier for mod-ship. Way to stack them brownie points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Lozier Posted July 21, 2002 Share Posted July 21, 2002 Yeah, I guess if you were a mod you wouldn't get in trouble for spamming. Oh, what? Oh, nevermind. It appears that you don't have to be a mod to get away with spamming cuz this whole thread is spam. Every single post in this thread is spam. Just look at it!! This is lame.
