    Questions about Moderators
    Does anyone happen to know what is involved to become a Moderator & what the forum pays a moderator ?

    I do not know about DP - but the forum that I am a moderator on does not pay me. It is purely volunteer. And, I was invited to do it by the forum administrator.

    Pays depends on forum size and other factors (not every forum pays though).

    If The Forum is referring to DP then each mods gets a free premium account which is a pretty good deal. Before this it was a free unpaid hard labor :D
    Good to the mods though for doing their work without whining too much. Its not easy to be a mod.

    Normally you get asked if you're a good contributer to the community. You also should be honest, reliable and able to weigh up an argument. I Super Mod at 3 different forums and I've been approached by the Admin in all 3 cases.

    involvement /contribution in forum is needed :)

    usually start up forums pays for mods as it needs promotion contribution more at the initial stage
