I'd like to apply as a moderator, however I noticed that many people are rejected for not reporting posts often enough. I believe I would be one of those people because I hardly report posts because it seemed nothing was done. If I do start, however, how long should I wait until applying to have a proven record that I have began reporting?
Are there any other common reasons people are declined that are easily avoided? Also, if you've put a thread in the wrong spot on accident recently by complete and total mistake, would you be declined for a moderator position or is that so minor that it doesn't matter? Thanks for your help. |

I'm curious; how long does it take for one's application to be processed?
I filled one out earlier this month (or was it last month?), and I haven;t gotten an answer back yet. Or does it take long, when they're looking through a user's post/report history? |

I ran across an error message that is rather disturbing when opening the application for being a mod. It says: Sorry, you may not apply to be a moderator because your account is currently banned!
..If my account is banned, how did this happen? And also.. how am I allowed on this account? |

o_0 you know... that's a very good question. I would PM an online moderator to see if they can offer further assistance/an explanation...

 I know this isn't a question or anything...but I found a spelling error on the front page. I don't know if anything can be done about it now or not, but I thought I should point it out. admin #19. Patience is an important quality with moderating, so think of it as a great way to practise being patient. Should be *practice* |

Mother Fluff I know this isn't a question or anything...but I found a spelling error on the front page. I don't know if anything can be done about it now or not, but I thought I should point it out. admin #19. Patience is an important quality with moderating, so think of it as a great way to practise being patient. Should be *practice* Technically both would be correct. Practise is a verb while practice is a verb & noun. However practise is only a verb and never the noun (as in it's always a doctor's practice, not doctor's practise). "great way to practise being patient" is therefore correct (as would "great way to practice being patient" wink . http://www.wsu.edu/~brians/errors/practice.html It's a UK vs US thing, where in the UK practice is the noun and practise is the verb while in the US practise is the verb and practice can be either. So I chose the one that was accurate for everyone hence using practise and not practice. |
