Make good reports of posts that break our rules (such as off-topic posts or thread in the wrong board, but not much more than that) and you'll be noticed. With the new report system that is integrated into the forum, theymos can just see who has made a good amount of reports and has the best ratio of good reports to bad reports with a single query the next time we need more moderators. Of course, a full manual evaluation of the person is done from there once he has some names. If you become a moderator, you'll start off moderating a single board. If you do well there (again, with a full manual review), he'll make you a global moderator.

As a moderator of another board myself: One of the main rules with regards to forum moderation is you never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never never EVER make someone a moderator who asks to be or how to become a moderator. Never.

lol I'm not looking to be, just curious.

Thanks for pointing that out, even though you did it in kind of a douchy way.

I apologize for acting in "a douchy way". Unfortunately after repeatedly pointing out to newbies that they wouldn't have to ask their newbie questions if they would just read the "NEWBIE README" post pinned to the top of the Newbie sub-forum, I occasionally get a bit exasperated, resulting in some slightly sarcastic posts.



No problem man.  I understand your frustration with explaining the same thing a million times, I'm starting to feel that with my family members and friends all asking me what Bitcoin is and then they have 2 million other questions once we get past the basics.  The world needs to know about BitCoin though, so I explain it to anyone who will listen.

Huh So just ask, eh. Kinda misleading if you ask me. Bitcoin is like a cult/religion to many. You just don't walk up to the holy-gates and simply ask for God like abilities.

That wall of text didn't answer the OP's question.

I was always under the assumption one has to be a stonecutter to be moderator.  Huh

Of course it did. Here's a smaller quote to make it easier for you:

You can accumulate rep points, some one with allot of Coins have allot of rep points. Eg. Me and you both have 1 coin because were newbies. Also people need to know you or at least of you and like you.

I don't really know the answer to that but I pretty sure Its going to take allot of Rep!

Like a good reputation? or can you actually accumulate rep points or something here by having good posts?
