    For the first time, we are asking our members if they would like to mod a forum or two. This is a rare opportunity for those of you who want to get more involved in the operation of the forums.

    Moderators responsibilities include keeping the forum tidy by removing spam, duplicates, worthless posts, enforcing the Forum Guidelines, and reporting other problems to supermods or admins.

    It doesn't require a lot more time than you already spend on the forums.

    Moderator requirements:
    1. at least 18 yrs old
    2. a senior member or supporter
    3. clean forums record (no bans)
    4. knowledgeable about subject of forum, and active in that forum
    5. forum has no active mods currently
    6. forum is busy with new posts every day
    7. Online most every day with time to spare to moderate
    8. mods must be helpful and diplomatic
    9. Previous mod experience a plus! :)

    If you think you qualify, you can PM me with the forum name(s) you wish to mod.

    Thank you for considering this important job!

    I remind all members that they can report any post or thread using the report button (under the username on each post). This will send out the report to all supermods & admins so we can deal with the problem. So even though you may not be a mod, you can still help out on the site. :)

    I'm still relatively new to this site (this is my 24th post and I registered yesterday/earlier today), but I have some moderating experience and a LOT of free time. I suspect it won't take me long to reach 1,000 posts. I may be interested in making a donation, too. I will give it a week or so before I decide that, though.

    How can I tell which forums do and do not have a moderator?

    It pays ZERO Dollars, ZERO Euro.

    Skip. if HEAT isn't on as much, I'd take over 'Mens Issues". It's between you and her now.
    I don't expect Angelgodiva in 2008 at all.

    Yep! If there is no screen name at the bottom RIGHT side of that forum, there is NO Mod for that forum. It should be right inder the page number under the last post. Depending on what format you use here.

    Hi There
    Do You Guys ( N' Gals ) Appreciate Having A Moderator Around To Address Any Concerns you may Have That need Addressing ?
    One Prerequisite Of Being A Moderator Is Knowing You Cannot Please All Of The People All Of The Time ( Or You Will Go Mad Trying )
    Also, Being A Moderator is A Thankless Task, Making One No Money , And Losing Friends In The Process
    There Is No Glamour In The Responsibility You Take On , Only A Self Appreciation That You Did Something Good That Day , Or In The Way You Mediated A Dispute Or Indifference
    Being A Moderator Entails Complete Loyalty To The Website You Represent
    I Like This Site , And I Like What You Guys ( n Gals ) Have Accomplished
    Keep Up The Good Work
