How would one get updated to staff or moderator position on bitcointalk. Does anyone know how this occurs as the administrators have to appoint them?

There will be a thread posted with appoinment of a new mod in forum which will ofcourse will be started by admin itself.
Dont worry all important announcements are made on time.

All that aside, is there even demand currently?

For new patrollers, not at all. There are 0 reports most of the time. There are many of us, and some are very active, thus reports get handled swiftly.

You have to see a shooting star during a red, full moon, then you become moderator.

Not quite. On the second blood moon during your stay here, you either turn into a weremod or you don't. If you do turn you are deemed as worthy.

The % correct is entirely up to the actionable mod though. My reports in some sections get straight up ignored so I don't bother with any housekeeping reports.

Depends on who is handling them. I handled quite a few of yours about a particular newbie.

Out of pure curiosity why would you want such an account? Sounds like a lot of thankless effort to me.

It is also possible that someone wants it for the wrong reasons (not saying that OP is, although any damage can be swiftly fixed by theymos). This is why becoming a staff member is not a simple process.

You might you have to do what hilarius did. Hilarius reported like more than 10000 thread and got it 100% correct. Then he was noticed and become a patrol staff then promoted to globar moderator now. You can asked him for tip.

I hear they get paid, but not a lot.

Also, it seems like a good way to become a "trusted" member here since people will automatically assume that someone on staff is someone that can be trusted.

well ,cant explain you all the stuff but this might help.

Staffs and mods are assigned when someone have reported a lot of posts correctly, and there are vacant places in some boards (however all boards have mods now, and no new ones are needed for now).
Also if someone stated that they wanted to be a staff, they will most likely mot to be assigned (as people would think that they are scammers demanding trust and won't give trust).
