How do you apply for mod?


Recommended Posts

I think there should be a rogue mod... One that wears a cape and creats new forums on a whim.

lol, like some Neowin mascot/superhero, by day he is just an ordinary man, but by night he is LAHRD MAN.. or something. :laugh:

I find it rediculous how many members are posting here claiming to know what it takes to become a mod... Forgive me for being blunt, but how the hell do you guys know? :blink: The only ones who would know are the mods, and the ones who know best are the admins (they chose the first, and probably have a significant input into who's chosen)... Mods aren't elected by the community or anything, so as far as I'm concerned, normal members have no right claiming to know how to become a mod, unless of course they were once a mod.

xcept for the obvious fact that many people are moderators/administrators on other msgboards

interesting info for sure. i admit always wondered how one became a mod actually, and i defintely like the fact mods are hand picked.

Incorrect - many people supported his mod-ification, but the community never votes on this stuff. Chances are, though, if you become a mod you're probably already very well liked anyways.

Hmm... Maybe I should write a book sometime. "The DOs and DON'Ts of becoming a Neowin mod" Yeah... That's it... :shifty:
