How does one become a Mod on here?

[togermano]

Do you have to like all of neobonds post?

Do you have to reply to everything he posts and suck up?

Seems like alot of the mods on here could of been better picked

To become a mod here you must:

1) Have a minimum of 5653 posts, but not more than 8622 at the time of consideration.

2) Complete a 30-hour mod course (link will be provided to you when you are accepted as a mod).

3) Be able to devote at least 5 hours a week to mod duty.

4) Upgrade to a modern OS.

5) Not say the mods on here could have been better picked.

I think I see where this question has sprung from. To counter, I offer this:

Respect Moderator Decisions.

Threads and posts questioning the actions or decisions of forum moderations will be deleted on sight, and the appropriate action taken (up to and including forum bans) against the thread starter and/or participants. However, as a member you reserve the right to PM any moderator, supervisor or administrator regarding action taken at Neowin.

New moderators are chosen by current staff. There are various requirements, but basically if you're an upstanding member of the community then you may be asked.

Now, since this appears to be circumventing the above rule by disputing a moderator's decision in an incorrect way, I'm closing the thread to be reviewed.
