May I know the criteria of being a Moderator ?

Title speaks for itself...

I heard that you need to keep reporting threads, and if you have reported a huge amount of threads and got a very high success rate, admin will contact you.

The system is showing that till date have reported all threads with 100% accuracy. Its good if the no. of reports is known...

a pulse and a good relationship with Theymos

I think this is vague. I'm in some of the leading forum on the web. In comparison to those, this forum is maintained quiet professionally. If the admin were partial about personal relationship ...this could not happen.

You're too new with too little activity. Not post count, activity. Not that counter either, but unless people know your name and you're doing a lot of reports I doubt you'll get staff. Unless you're skilled with a certain language/native with it and post a lot in that language's section a lot, then you *might* get a moderator position in that section.

100% accuracy? That is almost impossible, 99% could be achieved. There needs to be a margin of error.
Obviously a relationship with the owner/admin is always needed. It's like getting a job, if you're in a good relationship with the employer, your chances increase exponentially.

Your success rate doesn't actually matter all that much. If you're above 60%, we'll teach you the rest once you become a mod. As long as you can maintain that, quantity of reports is much more important than quality. Specifically, we're looking for people who report things during time periods where the reports aren't immediately acted on, because that indicates a need for additional moderators for that time block. People who report things during those time are far more likely to be chosen, and you're more likely to report during those times if you report more in general.

[DiamondCardz]

That sounds reasonable enough, you want the people who can get a lot done rather than spending an hour checking each post to see if it needs deletion.

This really makes sense. I am from an Asiatic country, so probably most of the global moderators are not from this time zone. I'm being more precise about the report count... 17 posts reported till date with 100% accuracy. I think this quantity is low compared to the requirement. Its good if I get to know the requirement bar for the quantity of posts. I would also like to know if participating in signature campaign is counted as negative attribute ...Thanx.

I'd imagine that the moderation team would be looking for people with report counts that are in the 3-digit area, that make reports fairly frequently, not just 1 a week for 3 years.

Not being DiamondCardz probably is also one.

[Lauda]

Why is that? Couldn't he say the same for you?

[cp1]

Did he sell his account or get hacked?

[DiamondCardz]

Not being DiamondCardz probably is also one.

Well yes, if you were me you wouldn't be a mod because I'm not a mod, makes sense, no?

I think that he was answering to the topic title.
So in a way, he's saying that you can never be a mod.

I'm aware, I was just answering his "statement" in a way that makes his troll posts look ridiculous.

He's ridiculous with his trust rating anyways. Nobody really cares what he posts anymore.

[Vod]

Probably sold.  In any case, I've put it on ignore.

Any subforums around mining you want me to swing by? Hardware is my stomping grounds but things get picked up pretty quick.
