Around here, what he said. On other boards, the criteria depends on the admin and the board's purpose.

You must drink the blood of a virgin upon the nearest peak whilst cursing the god of lightning himself amid a thunder storm of much rage.

Then and only then shall your soul be endowed with the powers of modship and general forum going duties.

Yes, but publishing the code for the programs they sell at outrageous prices would be better.

It takes the will of an admin and/or your particular or peculiar devotion to a certain forum.
But we have enough for now, so don't worry about it.

[chief smokesalot]Noble Braves, this has gone on long enough. We must all partake of the peace pipe and become brothers of the spirit![/chief Smokesalot]

Why would ANYone want to voluntarily become a mod of this place? As it is they have my most sincere sympathy. Trolls love it here, as do fundies and trolls, and don't forget trolls. Virtually every Sci-Fi board on the net knows about this place, and with their barretts do they take aim upon this shining beacon of logic and SW superiority. Besides, we have a spammerific railgunning madman running about and an endless Black Mage/SEGNOR war. Not to mention the HAB/Mechamaniac conflict. No, the mods can have their jobs. Remember, Old mods, never die. They just...fade away.

Wow. All positive imagery in my sick little head involving IB just went the way of Episode one. That was incredible. It only took one post. :shock:
