Subject: Job of A Mod

"Ultimate excellence lies
Not in winning
Every battle
But in defeating the Enemy
Without ever fighting."

-Sunzi: Master of War.

Do moderators and "officials" of Bungie.net get payed? And if so, what do they do to earn the Quasimodo?

Do you slave over a computer all day?

Moderators aren't paid. The Webteam is.

Mods are all volunteer, while the Webteam's job is to manage the site.

Best of random chance

Moderators don't, "officials" are employees so yes.

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

Moderator in training, it is demanding work

One day though, you could get to hold the shaft

It is a very rewarding job. :3

But no, they don't get paid, they do it for fun.

He is a mod, so he isn't paid.

He's a moderator. Salmon text is a moderator, golden is an employee, if you can't tell from the title.

Some mods like Stosh have made the switch to employee but this is not likely.

Stosh was a long time contract worker if I remember correctly, so when they eventually hired him full time they switched his color. I may be way off though.

I think thats right and most (I actually think all) current ninjas don't do any contract work for Bungie. So any new Gold bars are going to be from new people.

They won't laugh as much when you extort them with a possum and rubber band.
