Kerm Posted September 24, 2005 Share Posted September 24, 2005 I don't get the whole promotion thing. Would it really change things for you? I personally see so many people kissing up to everything mods say that I think Id end up thinking nah I wont post because I'm not gonna get an honest opinion. Id like to get to a point where I'm respected as a long time member but having a mod badge would do nothing for my life because at the end of the day this is an internet site. 586567794[/snapback] Thinking about it all the mod suck ups or whatever, they just want the mod badge and the power rush. But being a mod, you'd have to do all the crap that they have to sift through and perhaps would feel obligated to set an example to the rest of the members and from my thinking would probably end up constraining your freedom to post whatever you feel like for fear of reprisal. I maybe be wrong not being a mod and all but perhaps the mod badge wouldn't make up for the rest of it. My thoughts. Mods feel free to respond.

ZiGGA Posted September 25, 2005 Share Posted September 25, 2005 I like to dip my fingers in many pies and Neowin happens to be one of those pies amongst other sites I visit. But I post here because it's friendly and keeps me upto date with technology. I also enjoy the look of the site compared to others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
