moderaters

[Aqrhine]

i know i am no were near it on this forum because when i was moderator on my other forum i had some 784 post when i got to be one but how do youi become a moderator on this site and what are the requirments??????

[Thelemac]

You don't apply, no requirements.

When we need another moderator due to workload, we select one from the existing membership. Well, the Senior Membership, anyway, as they're a member base that has at least most of the qualities we want out of a moderator. ;)

[Aqrhine]

ok well how/when do you become a senior member???????/

[Gandalf]

I'll take this one Thelemac. ;) :)

Want to become a Senior Member? Here is what the moderators and staff look for when appointing Senior Members: (In order of importance)

1. A willingness to help others, particularly when an individual has little personal interest in the topic or problem. As when a Senior helps a beginner with a problem which has been discussed many times in the past.
2. A demonstrated patience and reserve in dealing with disagreeable people.
3. The ability to discuss or disagree in a topic on the basis of REASON rather than personal attacks, which never further knowledge, but can only wound hearts.
4.A reasonable to good back ground in overclocking and cooling combined with a general knowledge of hardware as a whole.
5. Approximately three - four months in our forum. Time to demonstrate a continuing interest in our forum and allow us to determine the presence of the afore mentioned qualities.

[Aqrhine]

[Gandalf]

Glad to help. :)

Thelemac

Maybe the swearing kept you from being a senior. Thelemac didn't seem to like it too much. Lol.

[Thelemac]

Hate for making me edit posts!

I spelled it with a "ie" not just a "i" right??? If I used just an i, that is what happens when you are up all night and post @ 6 AM:D

Ditto on the statement above. If you can't even use "ie" sorry. Was just playing around tooooooooo early in the morning.;)

I don't really expect to become senior here b/c I don't really help anyone. Plus I disagree a lot (although it usually is to try and open eyes) even though most of the time I am wrong:D. Right there I have two strikes. I don't really know squat about cooling (strike three), Don't overclock too much (strike four), I have no patience with dealing with rude people (strike five)(although if I make a rude statement I don't expect a nice answer back).

The only thing that i have going for me is the willingness and the time spent on the forums:D Oh well, maybe next year:rolleyes:

[Thelemac]

Extra letter != new word. ;)

[Cuper]

Thelemac - sorry, won't happen again:D

Reads what???(j/k)

You know, maybe when my pappy dies, if I inherit his 9sq/ft of JD Mountain (Yes he actually has a legal deed and all) I'll have to forward it on to Skip;)

I can't see why people do not read it. it is after all important to do so as it is the EULA to which you agree when joining these forums... perhaps we should get Skip to change it so that we get the keys to your car, house and partner if nobody reads it.

[mbentley]

what would you ever do with all those cars?!?!? hehe i suppose skip would never have to worry about the costs of exceeding the bandwidth :) btw, how is that coming along? just curious how that's working out for ya... i hope that it's at least gone down a lot since all the little changes that we have tried to make around here...

[diggingforgold]

I too am interested to hear about that.

(A bit out of subject- but can you right donations to the forums off on taxes? Mwahahahaha!)
