I find it funny that no matter how many of these kind of threads appear, the members list their advice on how to become a moderator.


...hoping to become one?!

My advice to anyone wishing to be chosen as a Bungie Moderator would be to sign up for an account on one of the world's leading MMORPG's. You'll surprise even yourself as to how fast you become one!!! The words leaving your lips would almost certainly begin and end with WoW!

Don't ask to be one. Lol.

1. Don't ask to be one
2. Be helpful to the community
3. Don't flame or spam

That's basicly it, but even if you do that, it's still almost a snowball's chance in hell you'll become one.

* Don't be stupid
* Don't ask
* Drink lots of alcohol

PS. I think I best described it as "You don't ask to be in mod club. Mod club asks to be in you."

Well you can see what is in all of these posts. And for the grand final reason why you wont be a moderator wannabe.

Your name successfully damns any chance of you ever moderating on this website.

Moderators are chosen by Bungie. They do not request the position. In other words, you don't ask to be a moderator. Moderators are people from the community that Bungie comes to trust to handle being a mod. The nickname "IwannabeModeratr" is, at best, suspicious.

Oh Pistolsnipe where the hell do you get Alcholic as a prerequisite to being a moderator. That is a prerequisist to being a webmaster.

Oh and I forgot one more thing on how to be a moderator.
* You don't join this group.

oops** sticky mouse button at work again, can someone smite my name off the membership cue please so we can all pretend it never happened.

When reading Yoozel's post that I quoted, keep in mind his life dream is to out-drink the Webmaster, then usurp his position. (I really don't know his life dream, I just know he likes the booze)

They must be auflly picky, fragula has been around since 2002 and has created a theme yet still isn't a moderator. What were the moderators doing in the community before they were made moderator? I never noticed them on the forums.

I noticed Recon, TGP, and VII Toast before they were moderators. Good fellas they were. Good fellas.

fragula is an okay Prime Minister, but i don't know about a moderator...

1) He is never drunk when on B.net
2) He is already a theme master
3) It's SIR FRAGULA, who cares if he's been here forever, that's not what makes you mod matierial!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fragula, do you even want to be a mod?

I realize that becoming a moderator will probably never happen, but I want to know: What did you guys do in the community before being made moderator? Is there any advice you could give me?

Thanks guys, I appricate it.

They were themselves... they didn't do anything to become a mod, they simply did things they wanted for and about the community... They were recognised for such behaviour and were rewarded.

You cannot aim to be one and do things to look cool, you've just got to be all round awesome... or a robot...

And just a tip... Your name kinda destroys any chances you did have or ever would have had...

I'm gonna laugh some day if half these so called mods are just 13 year old kids with a dictionary next to the computer.

Good luck. No one can out drink the Webmaster. I mean do you see how big his hat is? He drinks out of it!

Where did you get point 1 from? He's always drunk on high-class spirits whenever I see him.

Actually there is a cut off at age 15 and we're hesitant to take 15 as well. But you can't be too picky when asking people to watch over your website for next to nothing.

Anyway, this thread is closed because it’s off base and has already had the questions answered.
