    Congrats to the new mods.


    Probably silly questions, but are mods expected to work a certain number of hours per week, is there a 24x7 mod rota or something, what happens if a mod is sick etc

    Presume there is no form of pay for any of this ?

    In short - mods are posters that have been asked to volunteer without pay. There are no work hours set.

    Is there training offered on how to mod ?

    So presume they are just asked by other mods to do it or do normal users approach and ask to be mods ?

    They are asked by mods.
    There is no point in asking to be modded, it's a case of "don't call us, we'll call you".
