Not a bad resume IMO

[Montmorency]

I think I get it.

Thank me, it's a courtesy.

[Sigurd]

It has never been about popularity...

It has never been about popularity...

That explains how I became a moderator then.

[Tellos Athenaios]

If you have to ask, you're not one of them.

[drone]

You are a Spurs fan, which shows you have poor judgment. Request denied.

Me too.

Internet Forums are like Pets. They're lots of fun when you're not responsible for them! :creep:

Pretty true! Lots of people feel very restricted in such a role as there is a standard expected and they feel they have to be completely impartial all the time like some inhuman stoic individual. It is like a "trap" of responsibility. I like to think people can voice their opinions on matters on whatever they want, however responsibility should never interfere with opinion. As such, lets say we disagreed on a topic, I would do my best to ensure our clash on opinions does not interferes with duty, and if I felt that I am unable to do that, I would refer a duty situation to a third party.

So ultimately, I don't think moderators should be Socratics, but I do think they should be conscious of themselves.

[Well aware my name is Green and automatically skews the perception of my post because of that, but hey, I don't shy away from my opinion!]

Why would you even want to be one? If I was ever asked I'd emphatically say "No."


One time, long ago, I might have agreed with you, GC.

But the power! The glorious power that comes with the green name! It is simply incomprehensible to all of you mortals. Now that I have it, I cannot live without it.

If you exclude the free Thai massages and the copious amounts of drugs that we get shipped by the .org HQ, I'd say it's not that much different from being an active regular patron.
