With the way this place is growing, they'll need ten more within a year to keep up. Ok, so maybe I am exaggerating, but yes openings do occur and members that stand out(in a good way) have the best chance. When I first joined here, Nephilim was a lowly AD Addict ;P
who wants to be a moderator at aD? they are lonely people that gets paid peanuts for doing an excellent job. Plus you have to be a necrophilia ;P
Haha, lonely people...you gotta laugh! Neph, Flip, Herbsman, Darth, Vurbal, Klingy, Jannejt, Pkaksp (only ones I encounter) Are you lonely? Well, I suppose you have eachother
I wouldn't really want to become a Moderator. It seems to hold too many responsiblities, and with the current uprising of people who continue to visit this site as Newbies daily, you'd have a full schedule before you know it. I personally would look forward to having the option of having the "I Hate Titles" title instead.
Been a while since I was an Addict eh, Doug? It's true that some of the Mods are necrophiliacs but at least I have geestar to get the bodies for me! darthnip on the other hand prefers to take his down personally - he's a purist We've all been real busy lately! There's been a huge influx of worthless punks over the last couple months and it's caused my tolerance level to go way down in many cases.
I had to laugh at the way you eventually banned 'Uhhhh', Neph. But you forgot 'the hand' http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/257815 Glad he is finally gone! He was annoying personnified!
yes, we do miss the wavy hand (lots) but Neph does sometimes use another fave one; i liked it so much i saved it - http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y183/rephaim/baby.jpg
Well Neph does a great job as Mod and, I still don't see how he keeps up with everthing while staying level headed, great equalibrium.
I had no idea that the mods received any remuneration at all but whatever it is it certainly can't be enough. Being the law enforcer is certainly a major task within itself but to also keep abreast/ahead of this rapidly expanding tech savvy forum must be enervating to say the least. I think I read where Neph works some ridiculously long hours separate and apart from his herculean contribution to AD(seeing that he's practically ubiquitous). Being a Mod is certainly something to aspire towards but I'm sure that it's no bed of roses.
we get 2 things for modding here, jack and shit, and jack left town. we do it for the sheer joy of slapping idiots around.
I know that that was said in ernest(considering the daily dose of idiots you deal with) and this is probably a solemn moment, but Darthnip's comment was hilarious. I concur that it was eloquently said,lol.
