Would you like to be a moderator? (just a question not an invite)

astra2000

I definitely would not be suited to that job as the bit of power would definitley go to my head there would be bans left right and centre apart from my favourite posters who all shared my opinions! But seriously I have to take my hat off to people who are moderators giving up their free time and staying impartial and possibly reading through threads that don't interest them. So if you were asked to moderate would you agree, and if you did how heavy/light handed would you be?

no.. sure i can barely keep on topic as it is, if i had the power, it would all be dildos and fistings.

Let us know when you start that thread!:D
But no could never moderate. No time and could not be asked to handle some of the petty squabbles

Would you like to be a moderator?

No... Although when I see idiots posting s***e I forget that I'm not a mod on boards and my automatic reflex is to hit the edit button, until I remember.

In AH? Unless counselling was provided for by boards, not on my fcuking life.

I'd like to be mod for a day, just to see what it feels like.

First, I would look at my name in bold, and admire the boldness of it.

I'd probably have to ban someone. As its my first banning, I would have to reword my post 50 times before I am happy that its exactly in that mod tone.

Then calm a thread down with some bold writing in a way that's clear and authoritative, yet still makes sure I am seen as one of the lads.

I'd then go into the sex & sexuality forum just to see if there's anything in there that is worth looking at. I'd walk in all mature, cuz I'm a mod, but really only want to see if there's bewbs or pee pee related stuff.

I'd make a few posts in the forums I normally frequent, but with less smileys, and a touch more maturity. I am still one of the lads though.

I would then read my inbox of people whinging at me, and spend hours rifling through charters, and previous warnings to prove why I am right.

At the end of the day, when its taken away from me, I would feel really deflated, like I got demoted. But after a while, I'd be fine.

I'd then be one of those out-to-pasture-mods who used to be a mod ages ago, who are not anymore, but post in that way that still says: "I used to be a mod, I just don't want to be anymore"

You mean you have to be asked?

Don't post in this topic again.

Feels good man.

Yes but not After Hours

Cookie_Monster

I've been asked if interested, said yes, and subsequently rejected before starting
I asked if they'd want me to do in place of an in-active mod in one of the quieter forums and not even gotten a reply.

Why do you hate me so?

Scarily accurate. I am embarrassed.

you wouldn't want me as a moderator.

I was informed in the past that I was more suited to being moderated than being the moderator.

Yes. I used to be one on another forum and I enjoyed it quite a bit. It was not nice banning people though.

Of the forums I frequent: AH and Soccer - Dear god no. The others I'd consider.

I'd be a right c*nt of a mod and I would ban anyone who disagrees with me or makes me look stupid.

How do you become a mod out of interest? What is the criteria/process??

Not too sure about here, but on other sites you are asked to become one. Never ask to be a mod.

This is an example of a perma-ban worthy post warrenting hate-mail being sent to your email account for the forseeable future.

This tbh.

Some of the smaller forums that are less high volume that would not require hourly moderation, and as such would be less of a price to pay to get the coke,hookers, bolded name and access to the S&S forum!

If I were a moderator:

1. I wouldn't enter into heated debates on the board I was moderating. The only comments I would make would be observations.

2. I would stick to the rules and perform clinical decisions that are the same for everyone. For me it would be an extremely straightforward job because I wouldn't bring any sort of "judgement" or "personality" to it.

3. I wouldn't enter into debates on whether I should allow this or that post, I would just either leave it or take it down. Moderators shouldn't be going around trying to influence people based on their own sensibilities, with the threat of deleting posts to back them up.

4. I would in no way consider my job to be too "important" and I would let anything that wasn't a clear violation pass.

Glenster

It's like asking do you want to be a teaching assistant in a special school. No thanks, too many ****ing idiots to keep an eye on.

starlit

No I wouldn't. I am having too much fun as a fellow boardsie. Wouldn't go down too well If I became a mod. I think the power would go to my head or I be too relaxed about bans and such. I wouldn't like to risk my sleep over it though. I don't have insomnia. Any bit of sleep I loose I'd have to gain it somewhere along the line! It would be a cool job though being a mod.
