    seriously doubt there is such a company.

    But I'm sure you can find a few people who are willing to do it for $.

    I also doubt there is such a company (at least a legitimate one). Imagine the overhead of paying all your staff full time, the cost of running a business, etc. And in the end you need to be getting paid at least what your expenses are to not lose money. If a forum is big enough to spend a ton of money on "professional" moderators, they would just as well hire their own in-house.

    & that's probably the way to go....Are most large forums volunteer?

    My last site - MentalHealthSocial.com was a social engine social network meshed with a vbulletin forum...i had around 4 Volunteer mods...they gladly did it for free.
