whats the use of being moderator?

why does some people like to be a moderator to forums/websites? whats the use for them?do the forums/website pay them?

 

Maybe to get an experience, or maybe they just want to kick spammers..
or maybe in some cases, they are paid..

 

Gives them a good feeling to making the site better and helping out. Kind of like volunteerism at a local church or soup kitchen.

 

No one can ban them lol.

 

why are all pretty girls mean ?

 

you cannot avoid it, it comes as a package usually, either you take it or leave it lol..

 

Gives them a sense of power.

 

The moderator have resposibility to check whether the members in the site are following the rules or not.
and they are paid being a moderator.

 

Some forum paid and some dont. Anyway, being moderator is an opportunity to learn how to manage the forum

 

Because it gives them a sense of power

 

So, mods at DP get paid?

 

1 Authority and Power
2. Impunity against bans and infractions.
3. More $$$$ for signature space.

 

maybe they want to give back to the community by helping out around the site?

 

Maybe their love the forum and want to help it run smoothly.

Thanks Brian

 

I think they will not get paid..Because this a big webmaster forums...
