A couple of days ago, I asked a question in the SOTW forum:
“What does it take to become a moderator?”
…or at least, what does it take to be one of the SOTW judges, which is what I really want to know.
Anyway, I received an e-mail that said there was a reply to my question and I clicked on the link. Nothing. My thread was deleted from the SOTW forum. So I’m re-asking my question here… if that’s OK.
To become a moderator, you must be helpful, courteous, and a positive influence on the forums. New moderators are invited by a full vote from existing moderators. Being a moderator is a great job, but it also carries a lot of responsibility - only the brave, the strong, and the fearless need apply =)
its on kirupa’s about page=)
Aha, OK, thanks. I’ll take a look. 
Kajinku: You’re thread did not get purposely deleted. When the forums switched servers we lost all posts made in the last 5 days. Your post fell into that category. Again, on behalf of Kirupa, we apologize for the inconvenience.
Cheers,
Jubs :rambo:
I was thinking this might be the reason. It’s OK, no worries. (-:
yeah, to be a mod here you have to spend a lot of time… just check out the message counts for all the mods…
I just come here and say random antiamerican stuff, so I wont be a moderator anytime soon… but I’d say if you help out, explore ALL the forums (it’s been a while since I’ve been out of this one) you’ll make it…
… and make friends…
its not just the amounts of post, its how helpful you are to people here. there is alot more to it to=)
There are alot of things that can lead you to mod-dom.
Just be very considerate to the people around here.
Show yourself to be an upstanding kirupian.
Make it a point to help people out.
Follow the rules.
Don’t piss off any mods or Kirupa.
Stay out of Random lol.
lol thats basically it=)
Hehe, OK, I’ll try to keep all this in mind.
Let’s start. Someone needs a friend? A hug? Anything? For sure? I can help! Call me if you need something. LOL 
It’s not that I really want to be a moderator, but it seems to be the only way to be part of the SOTW judges… which I think is quite intresting.
Yeah… It’s hard to get into the MoD line-up…
It’ll take alot of visiting and hard work here and there… 
/me still wonds why you are listening to a non-mod lol
:trout:
I don’t. I’m still in the Random forum.
Get out while you can.

Ya… That’s soem of the best advice someone can give you lol
Yep, after all, see what happened to our Phil… [SIZE=1]No offence intended there, Phil, just jesting…[/SIZE]
Naaah, I don’t think I will. It’s the third most intresting forum here.
:beam: Poor Poor Phil…
We warned him… But he just wouldn’t listen…
:sigh:
lol=)
I became a moderator about 2 years ago when I actually used to help people with Flash and now I just poke my head around random every now and then. I guess you could call me a retired mod, but kirupa keeps me around so that I can ban people!
lol that must be fun=)
