It's all highly technical. We get together over a coffee and a hot keyboard, discuss everyone behind their backs, swan off to the pub and pull a few names out of a hat. Those unlucky enough to get their name pulled out have to become a moderator and buy drinks for the other moderators at the next witches, sorry moderators, meeting

The most important thing is that the mods do what is an unenviable task very well - and they assuredly do.

I take it you are a moderator you have to be a vertran and to have been a member for a couple of years.

I assume it's like the election of the president in 'Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy'. Anyone who wants to be a moderator is obviously unuitable and is disbarred!

I often get the feeling that the mods can't express their true opinions sometimes because of their heightened responsibilities. They seem a little reluctant and sit on the fence at times or steal another mods views. (
)Or maybe they are just more rational! Us normal posters often let emotion rule our posts and that's when people lose their cool, so i guess you need the cool headed mods. I'd hate a forum without mods but one that was entirely made of mods would be just as bad!

How do you become a moderator? Actually, I have the manual here, and can send it to you. Don't forget to read the all important final chapter: How to quit.
