Inner council, dark dungeons, blood sacrifices, long robes, chanting, lots of torches and candles.  The usual stuff...

Don't they have to go to Moderator school somewhere, and do we get the ones that pass or fail?

Well it involves a goat and the rest you really don't want to know about.

You asked, so now you are one.  Hehe  Why don't you make your first official act a demand for a raise in pay.  Striker did that, now his title is "staff," which means he got whacked good by Goatboy's staff.  [stick]

I was "nominated" by a number of forum regulars, who suggested that I volunteer for the job.  Eventually I did so, and have been a Mod since mid-'99.

Generally, in order to be a Mod, you have to be someone who participates regularly over a period of time, and you have to add some value.  Beyond that, you ask, and the Admins decide Yes or No.

It would be against the rules of the forums to describe how they reproduce, but here's a hint:

They reproduce the same way flatworms do.

That should read, "All your weapon are belong to us."  If you're going to quote it, get it right. :)z

Well Troy that may be fine for you because you have actual knowledge.

That "have to add some value" qualifier is a real killer.

The "value" isn't always knowledge.  It can be humor, or just the willingness to read each post and keep track of the trolls.

I just figured they were the old AV club or hall monitors from high school. They had no one to turn in to the principal anymore and wandered aimlessly until they found a home here.

Really, just curious (aka boredom)

So you basically volunteer? (What I figured)

Troy,

Actually remember when you where not a moderator. I’ve been
surfing AR-15.com since early-mid 1998?  Seem to remember
their not even being a discussion forum, just a web page??  You
are also one of the few moderators that actually seems to have a
real passion for the AR-15.

Interesting.

Born in Minnesota, grew up in Anaheim California and the south suburbs of Chicago.

I've been on the boards since day one and was asked to be a moderator back in the wild and crazy dayz around this time last year.

They come from Moderator University's scattered around the country.

They come from a place so dark and far away and difficult to see that someone else has to describe it for you. Its the Land of Tither and Nod on the planet Uranus. They have a graduate school there with some mean ass nuns that beat them ruthlessly with a stick until they obey.
