From our experience people who ask to be given priveledges ususally aren't the type of people who should have them. The way this will work is if we need more MODs the current MODs will nomiate someone. So if you have an interest in being a moderator your best chance to become one is not to ask to be one! Also be a model poster, act mature, help point out problems to the current mods if they seem to have over looked something (but don't be pesty about it), etc.

I thought that a burning desire to abuse the minicule amount of power that modship in this forum would grant combined with an inablity to live a real life would all be baseline qualifications. Bribery and arse kissing are also pluses.

yep and it's like what this thread is all about, it's all up to the admins so why bother worrying about it =P

hahahahahah. yeah....

but in all seriousness, it is a miniscule amount of power indeed. Too many people make way too much of a deal about wanting modship.

Try telling that to all the people who keep bumping this topic!

That topic where someone convinced Felces that he was now a mod, BTW, keeps getting bumped too... but just by 2 posts today, hence my deletion of them.

I woulda done the same in here, but there were way too many posts from the past couple of days. Ah well, at least the conversation is SOMEwhat more substantial in here.

Way to bump this topic by replying to a MONTH OLD POST.

What the hell possessed you to do that? You could have congratulated Dobio on his 8000th post in... oh, I dunno, one of the LAST DOZEN threads he posted in, instead of the 300th ago?!

Yeah, format has no meaning. It's just a computer function = suck.

Didn't someone steal PoxPowers alias, or is it his alt acount?

poxpower = Izax
-poxpower- (well, not right now) = poxpower

Izax stoled it. Yes he dids.

You can just read the date. Its a little over a year old. Testerline's level has nothing to do with it tho.

shouldn't you have figured out this was a really old thread when you dug it up to bump it after 3 weeks of no posts in it?

This thread just won't die. Oh well, hopefully some people who might be tempted to make new wannabeamod topics will read page 1 of it, at least, and save teh general forum a TINY bit of topicstartingmadness.

I think the next mod should 'sort out' the two question game.

Notice how I tiptoed around 'lock'. In fact, deletion would be better. :)

In fact, a current mod should.

HINT HINT.

But if you have a postcount of 500, they wont make you a mod, so it does mean something.

I am a member of Earfetish's forum and trust me when it was a pretty damn dumb thing to be banned for a week for.

Seeing as even mods have done it along with 90% of all members.

Problem is, the mods won't even know who you are unless you

A) Spend every waking moment of your life on the BBS saturating it with your intelligent, witty thoughts on each and every topic, or

B) You're a jackass attention whore.

Being a mod would be cool and all, but I'd probably have to remember to be here more often instead of in random sporadic bursts.

Not to mention that I have schoolwork and shit to attend to.


Dead.
