Seriously, (hodapp), how do you choose people to be mods? I don't have any infractions. (That's probably because I don't post in very controversial threads)
Here are some tips: 1) Maintain a high profile and not for being an idiot or whiner. 2) Play nicely with others while contributing something useful to the community. 3) Post count doesn't matter especially if most posts consist of "downloading now" or "I'm going to wet my pants". 4) Don't ask to be a mod. Do you really ask to sit at the cool table? 5) Buy fruitcakes for the TA powers that be.
Lets see 1. Nope 2. Nope 3. Darn 4. Not yet 5. Almost Well apart from one, three, five, four, and two I'm almost a mod!
Well numbers 3 and 5 are definately gonna keep me from being a mod as half my posts are "I'm downloading in my pants" and I will, under no circumstance, subject anyone to the horror known as fruitcake.
