How does a regular forum moderator become a senior one? Do you just have to be an awesome moderator, or is there a "length of service" required? Do you just have to be a mod for a while, or is there a "quality of service" required? Is is automatic? Who makes the final decision? Is there a committee?

What powers do Master Ninjas have? Who do they have authority over? Can Master Ninjas promote people?

Can Master Ninjas be demoted? Who can demote them?

And finally.....

Why doesn't MakaVeli4Life1 have yada yada yada and why isn't he blah blah, ect?

I hate everything, but it's not my fault.

Achronos can demote them, and he's the only person who can promote people to Master Forum Ninja and Forum Ninja. The Master Forum Ninjas are the same as a regular Forum Ninja, except they can edit blacklists (for example giving somebody a perma-ban), whereas the regular Ninjas can only hand out 7 day blacklistings. From what I understand though, if a regular Ninja wants somebody to be permabanned, Shishka or stosh will change it for them, Achronos only doesn't allow regular Ninjas do do it as a division of power.
Shishka was chosen to be a Master Ninja because he works at Bungie, and stosh has been a very valuable member of the community, so he became one too. They were both Master Ninjas before they were regular Ninjas (I think...stosh may have only been a Forum Ninja in the very early days of the new hotness). As far as I know, there aren't going to be more Master Ninjas any time soon.

I don't understand that question.

Thank you Ghandi 2. Posting here has proven to be most helpful.

stosh and Shishka were already deeply involved in the community before the new hotness (stosh essentially ran Chapter Founders, and Shishka was Shishka). The Bungie team have also met both before, so they weren't complete strangers.

Sir Fragula, I realize that this is off-topic, but, I just realized your avatar's eyes shift from side to side. That's creepy.

Somebody who had a theme for the 7th Column groups approved by Bungie.

Wait a minute? It didn't involve baked goods? Someone has been lying to me!

Of course this means that I now need to rethink my brownie-baking campaign.

That'll teach you to listen to the Webmaster.

Master Ninjas also have the power to post news stories on the front page, and approve them.

That's being very, diplomatic.

And death, the septagon, while slow, is the one place I can count on to go where insanity hasn't yet taken full root. When I need to decompress after Zany, I come here.

How do you become a Forum Ninja, I just want to know because I am sick and tired of people being idiots in New Mombassa and me not having any really power to stop it, but I know not the ways of the Ninja...
