Question...why FreeSpace Modding?

Because we said so.

Snails a nice guy don't get me wrong. He also spends a lot of time on HLP. But smart ethos and tact come from life experience. I'm not saying the other candidates have any of the above but don't make rash decisions based on limited knowledge. :)

I'm a mod in the Voice Acting subforum, which sees about three posts a week if we're lucky.  I'm just happy for the chance to spread my wings a bit.  :)

Actually, Snail's 119 years old. No seriously, AFAIK, he's at least 17 or so. Even if he's not even, he would then be fairly mature for a prepubescent, and I wouldn't be surprised if he didn't go insane. Most people I know don't go insane during puberty. Look at me for example: Instead of being crazy, I was just innately stupid back then. :)

So... How exactly is someone selected to become a moderator?

I've witnessed this on several forums now, and I was just wondering: why do threads about new moderators always turn into spam fests?

Anyways, I don't think that I'll ever become a moderator on any forums because I'm either not active or helpful enough. Or it could be because I'm an asshole, but seeing as both arguments are perfectly valid I'll probably never know...

Finally, I would like to say congrats(?) to the new moderators, and that I personally welcome our new fascist overlords.

When I got the PM I thought it was like a practical joke or something.
