I would think being forced role models for the community would be the hardest aspect of being a moderator.
Forced? They volunteered.

They volunteered to be a moderator, not specifically to be role models, is all I meant. Yeah, they aren't forced to be role models as users, but as moderators, they basically are. Yeah?

No, actually. They've said several times that they aren't role models, and that following their lead won't really keep you from getting banned.

Nothing much really, just ban, ban, etc.. It's not like they're fighting off hordes of zombies, or are they...?

What I'm trying to say is basically that (must be my muddy mouth day). That users look to them as if they're role models. How they're kept at high standards.

Am I making sense now?

There is an innate and almost uncontrollable desire to ban every person on the forums that persists through every day life as a forum moderator. Only through intense training of the mind, kind of like a mix between a Jedi, Bruce Banner and Vulcans, do they smother that desire and instead opt for making smutty jokes about other forum ninjas.

I don't always ban people but when I do I laugh uncontrollably...that's if I was a Forum Ninja.

Truth is a matter of perception.

I can tell it's not hard for them to ban someone. In fact, I think they enjoy it as much as we hate it.Achronos loves to kill people in their sleep(first hand account).

I can't think of anything thing they would hate other than the messages they get all of the time.

At once. You forgot that part. Actually I would say having to ban someone who hasn't broken the rules in a long time. That or having step down for any reason, good or bad.
