As some of you will have seen on the redesign plans, there is a section called 'Meet the Mod' in the Social -
So do you have an questions you'd like to ask a moderator (any generic rather than specific questions for individuals) - otherwise we'll just make it up, and that's bound to be less interesting.

What do you actually do?
Do you work from home or an office?
Will think of more...
Show off
ETA: I moderated a forum for a while and used to get so mad at some people but had to pretend to be allequal and fair. Like when there are trolls on here, we used to get munchausen-by-proxy type stuff and it would upset people because they felt abused for having given support and trust for something and to someone imaginary. You couldn't give 'em a load of abuse though, just quietly ban them and sympathise with those who were hurt.
If you weren't a mod, would you be a member of the forum?
:yes: Yeah she is go check her picture...
I really need to go and explore the rest of this site, rather than just hang out on the forums...
I had absolutely no idea there were so many of them! I'll have a proper mooch around tonight .
Yeah i couldn't find that.
- Do mods only moderate or also participate in discussions?
Aye, I figured that bit out .
I'd be curious to know of anything that has stuck in a mods mind - moments where they've seen someone blossom from being a part of this site, or where they've witnessed the opposite take place.
Dunno, I'm not really very good at thinking of things to ask.
brill question :thumb:
Meantime... which user on the boards gives the mods the biggest headaches? And don't you sometimes think "oh, for fuck's sake, not more fighting..."?
Helen on the other hand!!
If you weren't a mod for this place, what would you be doing now?
