View Full Version : How Moderators are chosen

There are many theories on how moderators are chosen.
The first, and most common, is that you get picked based on your post count evidently. By the way, less is better. In fact, the ideal mod should not have a single post or even be a member of this website.
The second way is the usual virgin sacrifice. Locating a virgin is pretty easily done...simply reference the Yellow pages for your local elementary school, athough in some areas you may have difficulty finding virgins there. If you are a virgin, you may commit suicide as an alternative if there aren't any virgins in your area. We encourage suicide in anyone dumb enough to follow our advice in hopes of becoming e-cool.
The third way is to write a 4 page essay. In size .05 font. Any typos will result in immediate disqualification. The essay doesn't have to be on the topic of modship, instead we prefer it to be on something like aluminum foil, or the mating rituals of the water buffalo.
The Fourth and final way of becoming a moderator is to duel an existing moderator to the death. To do this, inform one of us you would like to duel. Then turn your computer off and stare at the blank screen. First person to die of starvation loses. We promise we'll actually stare at the screen too. Really.
In case you haven't figured it out yet, if you have to ask how, or if you can be one, then odds are you won't be. Unless by some miracle of God you do write the essay, but the server has been known to suffer "voltage spikes" and lose valuable files and/or member accounts from time to time. Just ask an older member who Incube was.

Ebon, you forgot they have to be female virgins. We wouldn't want all of PBR's members killing themselves at once would we? :D

As much as UTL asks for them (doughnuts), I would think so.

Well it was really meant to stop all the questions of "how to I become a mod" that have plagued this forum lately and been answered about a billion times.

thats impossible, the lowest font you can go to is 1 and it took 2 minutes to type on line.

hey, u shouldent of said that, because im gonna write a 4 page essay in the smallest font i could find and do it about how you could use either tin foil or duct tape. would i be disqualified if i cant get .05 font?
EDIT: my smallest font is 1. you cant read it that small, so when i eventueally give it to you guys, you would have to increase the font a little so its at least visible.
i typed a test one and the first sentance was:
Hello, my fellow mod's and pbreview buddie's. I am going to be typing a 4 page essay in font 1 to become a moderator.
That sentance took up only (------------) of a line.

perhaps that's the point, so some guy dieing to become a mod would be spending hours typing a 4 page report AND be trying to figure out how to get his friggen' font down to .05 lol. but from the looks of it, being a mod is a dirty job and really doesnt look like a whole lot of fun....

It's a dirty job but someone's gotta do it.

It is a dirty job... but it is fun too. The ban button is a blast!!! :badboy: oops...there goes someone's account...oops...another one (damn..I liked him too...) Brings "point and click" to a whole new meaning! oh gee...there goes another one. I love playing Russian Roulette with other peoples accounts... :badboy:
j/k... seriously though. Is it a thankless job most of the time, but on the rare occasions when peeps listen to you and things work out for them, sometimes we even get a "thank you". Makes it all worth it...;)
