Would you want to be a DP moderator?

Uh, wasn’t it stated they don’t get paid? :S

 

no.

I can't waste even more times on boards

 

I thought that the mods are volunteers?

 

being a mod is hard. I am already a mod for a board half this size, and can barly take care of it.

 

that's what they want you to think, they're all bribed in reality (kidding!)

 

Moderating or being an Admin means you have to stop posting to a degree. You have to be much more careful about starting topics and what you post. Basically, you go from being a poster to an observer.

People who tend to volunteer for this type of position, are usually community minded.

So it really comes down to what you want out of a forum.

Personally, I mod on 2 forums already. I hardly even read them anymore. I like reading DP. Being staff would take all of the fun out of it for me.

 

They are... which is absolutely scandalous considering their workload (well, the active ones anyway). I'm sure they're only too willing to help out voluntarily but Shawn should really be taking the initiative to offer some sort of reward.

 

Heck yeah! I would love to be a mod here... all the fun you get to have, all the torture

I think the King of Da Wackos could be mod, he's close to Shawn already... I bet he knows where he lives

 

I dont think i would

 

Neither would I. Its a tough job and seriously I wouldn't have time to edit all referral posts , to give infractions , to ban users

 

Nope.I don't have that much time to moderate a big forum like DP and I think won't get any chance too

 

Nope.. its a very time consuming job..

 

I would, I've been a moderator loads of times and still am of a big movie site I have lots of spare time and that helps a lot.

 

would you?
Not for free lol. I don't think mods here aren't paid

 

I would there are too many people getting scammed here on dp and if I could help put a stop to that I would.

I hate scammers, and will do what I can do to stop them..

Well ring dumb is a new rode, passion overpowers the lust for money, I don’t think everything is about money, money, money.

 

some people like giving back to the community

 

Nope, how can one say it’s a lot of work if they’ve never done it? Here is an interview with Shawn, it’s not a big deal but it’s kind of silly estimating something of uncertainty to something else, here is the link to thee interview:

[Q] Are the DigitalPoint Forums difficult to manage?

[A] Nope, not at all. One person could do it by spending 10 minutes/day in the forum.

 

And the ones that said yes are the dumb ones?

What if you want to contribute and you have a lot of spare time so you can actually be an effective mod.
