How do you become a moderator?

Ok, I have a question regarding this site, first of all how do you become a moderator and what things can a moderator do?

We had moderator elections awhile ago. We will probably have them again when we need more moderators.

Oh so it's not based on the numbers of posts....?

nope

Oh man so that's not gonna help I wanted to be a moderator so bad....who gets to decide anyways?

The only way to become a mod afaik (well, besides bribing the webmaster through paypal ;)) is during one of the mod elections...you have to get the majority of the votes.

I still wanna know who voted for me...surprisingly enough I didn't vote for myself...should have...stupid ken...hasafraggin DA and govt ;)

Oh well, I don't care as much since I became a mod at flashdaddee...I'm just fine not having the added responsibilty here as well, though it would be nice.

> who gets to decide anyways?

All the members voted on it a few months ago.

> what things can a moderator do?

We're pretty much no different than normal members, except we have a couple extra buttons... However, some people seem to think we have some sorta conspiracy goin'...

We are the webmasters evil henchmen by bringing law and order to this board. Depending on whom you believe, we either delete obscenity, foul language and unwanted spam, or we quell free speech and eat little babies for breakfast. Whatever we do, we do it in plain sight, so it's up to you to decide what is closer to the truth.

Moderators were elected when the board first needed them, back in the days of the old board. When the new board came up, two more were elected, as at least one of the old ones has left the board.

Isn't flashdaddee a porn site or something? I might be mistaken.

> I might be mistaken.

Yeah, you are.

> eat little babies for breakfast.

Yup. Babies and ketchup. ::drool:: Babies and ketchup....

Only on weekends ;) Check it out (www.flashdaddee.com) and you'll find out what really goes on over there. I'm a moderator there, but not here. But seeing as how both cprog.com and f'daddees use vBoard, being a moderator just allows you to have more control over threads (close, open, stick, delete, move). But it's also about ensuring that people keep things in order (e.g. - that there aren't any flame wars going on).

>>ketchup

I thought that was only a breakfast food? :confused: :p

> I thought that was only a breakfast food?

You betcha! Look at my quote of nv

*opens his purse to grab a bottle of ketchup for his tasty firstborn midnight snack*

If flashdaddees is a porn site, I must have missed essential parts...

Drag me, drop me, treat me like an object ! :D

>>How do you become a moderator?

send me $3000 & i'll make you a moderator :P

So Basically what it comes down to is that the chances of me being a moderator here are about 1000000 to 1..............
































Wait!!!! So there IS a chance....... :( :D

Hey CollegeGirl!!!!






No discounts???? :p

>>No discounts????

hmmm ok since you're a cprogramming member you'll get a discount: pay me $2999.99!! great discount, isn't it? :P

dang...sounds like somebody around here is getting into the prostitution business.....:) j/k

>1000000 to 1..............

er, i'm no gambling expert... but wouldn't those odds be extremely in your _favor_ ?

and wierd david, i was just thinking that about CG when i heard she was offering service for money... strange indeed.

some people are just... STUPID!!! :P

doubleanti -- that implies that when you bet a dollar if you win you get a $million$

or if in the way their using it, in a million tries it happpens once.

oh right, i guess it can be vice-versa-ed upon the connotation... well the effekt was gained nonetheless...

and yes! cg i am a moron! :)

>>and yes! cg i am a moron!

glad you know it :)

You people are really cracking me up. Best post since that computer terms thingamajig that DA posted some time back.

:D

nv, you are hilarious!!!!!! Your description of a mod should be on everyone's board. Too bad it's too long to be a sig.:D

I don't think however that collegegirl is a "hooker"......... :D
I think that was just a joke.............or was it????
nah j/k it was a joke, besides she only gave me a 1 cent discount, I mean do you know how many you could find here in Miami for 3000? :D *clears throat* I wouldn't know ofcourse but for what I've seen in "Cops" they're WAYYYYYYY cheaper.... (yeah that's it cops, I saw it on cops). :D

Nv, I thought you knew not to discuss our secret rituals? At least you didn't mention the goat sacrfices.

Yes, moderators are elected; when will the next elections be? There's no set time; and of course, old moderators are not overthrown. (Once you've been initiated, it's hard to remove the chip)

Yeah, well, now that they know, we'll have to kill them... anyone seen my vodoo doll ?

Did I mention there is a special Undead board, where we raise zombies on friday nights ? Moderators only of course :eek:

>(Once you've been initiated, it's hard to remove the chip)

*zzzzzt!*

*sizzle*...

Looks like it's time for a new mod...

i was right damnit, you people should listen to me more.
