Aww, you're so cute Hikari.
I remember when I was a regular member and my friends got promoted. Most of my friends were either on staff already or got promoted shortly after I became friends with them. It seems like all of my friends early on (the group of friends I had when I joined here) either had a time on staff, or left before they were given the opportunity. I remember being soooo jealous after a certain point, where I decided I wanted to be a moderator as well. I was happy for them, and really excited that they got to do something different on the forum but I was also very, very jealous when I started to realize I was the only one left in one of my group of friends that wasn't staff yet.
Now, being someone who has a say in the moddings, I would probably call dibs on contacting them with the offer and be jumping for joy and so excited to finally ask them if they want to be on staff... My favorite users aren't necessarily friends, though, and most of the people who become my favorite members are because I see them as great moderator material. Naturally, many of them have become staff members. n___n
