Are You Trusted? Putting in a Mod Application? Read This!

<< < (3/4) > >>

It all depends on your confidence and word choice of your app. I applied once and got (under the hutchinske account) but in my opinion if you feel you need to ask if your ready then your not. you have to want to be a mod and not really care what others think.
One of the main things about being a staff member is the respect. Most people respect you because your a staff member but you also have to be able to handle haters. So you have to know when to be blunt and when to use different actions.

Yeah... I've been trusted for 3 days, and my friends and I have all been bitten by the "fill out a mod app form"bug. I've read it over, and decided to give it a few months cuz I doubt admins would accept my application. A few questions-
1 Could I try being mod for a few days when I'm ready?
2 How long would I have to keep my rank before I could resign?

I really don't want to lock this topic just to keep unwanted discussions out of here, but if that's what it's gonna come down to, then so be it.

Afro_Rick, I think that shouldn't go here and instead in the the Support board... IDK

Regardless of that, the answer to that question is:

You may apply anytime you like AS LONG as applications are open at the time. Right now they have been closed for quite a while. Time does not open up applications, but moderator supply does.

While what I am about to type does not guarantee or determine anything 100% for sure, I notice a pattern. They start of with about 40 moderators, then a (usually: right now this is not the case)month and a half later they will open applications when they go down to about 30-32 moderators. Again, do not count on this paragraph here, only a pattern I noticed that is already proving some amount of inconsistency exists within it

Also, no resignation time limit. Resign any time you like.

Yay. I've decided to put my app in in Jan. next year if the applications are open.
