I didn't hear anyone complaining on me.  mmmmmm does anyone want to say something?   

 

Seriously though, I like this job to be honest. There are ups and downs, but it's great to be able to help.

Yeah me ! Woula t nul !

I would have been a terrible moderator, I'm way to nice to moderate anything 

[TheRockARooster 51,185]

Would I get called TheModARooster?

[Fluttershyfan94 5,742]

I keep thinking to myself whenever I see this topic that it is like a self promoting application form for being a moderator. 

[Savy 5,077]

No, I'd make a pretty good mod, imo.

I'm mod for several different Discord servers, and everyone says I do a really good job at it. 

[Gaines 1,223]

If I didn't swear so much, I wouldn't necessarily be a bad mod but I'd rather be busy behind the scenes. 

[Clawdeen 14,130]

I’ll answer this one seriously. It depends on the site itself and the other staff members as to to whether I’d be good or not. 

I’ll say this. I’ve been staff on three different forums during my early 20s. Two of those sites no longer exist. I almost became staff on the forum I met my best friend on about a year ago. However due to some changes that upset all most everyone on the site, I left. 
All three of those were different experiences due to the people.

I have been a moderator of another forum for a few years now. My fears from my earlier posts here haven't come to fruition. As a teenager, when I was a moderator I was a drama queen and caused issues with my moderating. It's a trait that isn't completely absent from me now. When given a job of some type, I will eventually become a perfectionist and even territorial, wanting things to be run the way I want them and only the way I want them. However, I have avoided that in my moderator role this time. I'm a bit more carefree and know that I'm not doing the bulk of the work on that forum and thus I respect others and don't cause trouble.

I probably would have never thought of becoming a moderator again, but I was referred by a staff member on the forum, so I thought I'd give it a try.

[Iforgotmybrain 5,675]

I’m too much of a softie to be a moderator. I’d feel bad banning people or locking threads.

[Rainbow Cloud 17,974]

I'd probably be ok but I don't wish to become one.

I was a moderator on a pokemon forum for about 4 and a half years though split over two spells as I initially retired there after 2 years but returned about a year and a half later as a friend who was a mod there asked if I would come back and did another 2 and a half years before retiring again about 3 months ago. Helping out on a site can be rewarding but it's hard work and there's the negative side of the role that isn't very nice such as having to warn or ban people. I did ok as a mod there but I retired both times as I wished to have more free time and didn't want the responsibility anymore, I just want to be free and have fun now.

...Well, this is awkward.

I can assure you, I have not messed with anything. Not yet at least.

This reminds me of me back in August around when I joined lol. Silky warned me that there was a moderation flu going around and if I'm not care that I might catch it.

I said something very very scarily similar to this 

[Luna the Great of all the Russias 2,984]

Absolutely. So never promote me, MLPF staff.

[Clawdeen 14,130]

Yes. Never promote me as well. I would be very bad

"Would I make a bad moderator?"

 I would be a TERRIBLE moderator! I would never be able to enforce rules or ban anyone because I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings.

You would offer it to me freely. I do not deny that my heart has greatly desired this.

In place of a Dark Mod, you would have a King!

Not dark, but handsome and terrible as the dawn! Treacherous as the sea!

Stronger than the foundations of the earth! All shall love me, and despair!

Mmm idk. In the past, I was a mod and even an admin before for a large site and discord community, where people told me that they "loved me", but it is not something easy to do all the time.

If close to infinite spare time existed, don't think I would slip up and be a bad moderator here on the Forums

You're definitely right it is  

[EpicEnergy 23,218]

I'd be a chaotic moderator! Like not good or bad, just pure chaos! 

But seriously, I have never been a moderator anywhere so I have no clue. I take things very seriously sometimes and other times I like to joke around, it depends on the situation.

[Savy 5,077]

I'm a moderator on a few Discord servers, and everyone says I do a pretty darn good job at it.

 

So yeah, honestly I feel like I'd make a good moderator. I'm always good at following and enforcing rules.
