Just curious....

Ok so I'm not saying I want to be a MOD, but how do you become one anyway?

I've seen a few members suddenly become MODs out of nowhere it seemed & I'm just a little surprised I guess you could say .

So are random users chosen? Is it something you apply for (like a job)? Or do you just simply ask to be converted into a MOD? lol


So again, I'm not saying I want to be it's just something I've been wondering about for awhile now.

Good question! There's a nominations thread buried somewhere, wher you can nominate someone to be a mod or put yourself forward to be one (edit: whoops I missed that Pommy posted it above!). We really like having helpers, and once in a while we will decide amongst the current staff to ask three members to be helpers and they can learn about how the modding here happens We then might ask you back for another helper term, and then perhaps offer a permanent position!

Nominating yourself is a good way to highlight to the staff that you're interested so we can think of you when the time comes to recruit helpers. We like to get people that have a bit of experience on the forum so they know how it operates (it doesnt have to be a huge amount, but not brand new), and they've shown themselves to be mature and responsible on the boards and interested in making it a better place! Modding is great fun on AHS - it's why I've stayed years after loosing track of what Ayu's been up to....

The system worked that if someone was nominated twice or more to be a forum helper, then they would be promoted as sorts to being a mod. But I think the staff has enough mods for now and only need the extra help in terms of helpers.

And yes; pommy48, ayumisrael and myself were all nominated for this, the thread Pommy has linked has been up since April.

Yuup, can't ignore mods! I wouldn't know though, since I never block/ignore anyone. This is useful info though, might wanna become mod just so that people can't ignore me

J/k, I'd make a horrible mod, lol

Well, on the flip side, mods aren't really allowed to block people, either. I mean, we CAN we just SHOULDN'T.
