Would you take the job? Yes or No; Why?

Personally, I would. I wouldn't care if it was a section I don't know much about, but still go there a lot. If they asked me to be a moderator of that section, I'd say yes, and read the rules carefully, that way, I'd know what I would be doing. :D

I dunno... Being a Moderator could be cool(Blue username... I mean, a GENUINE BLUE USERNAME!), but then there's that whole "responsibilty" thing that I'll have to start thinking about. I think I would decline... Maybe it's because I'm thinking moderators are expected to act a certain way, and I'm pretty okay enjoying the way I am now.

Who am I kidding? If I was asked to be a moderator, I'd probably say yes so fast... Actually, I don't know.

Yeah... They're just cool... *sparkling eyes*

Why, i'd be honored to be a moderator, only i,too, break the rules, so that would be almost impossible to happen... *sniff* :(

P.S. = Still, Moderators are cool! :)

Nostalgia. Last log-in was 2009. Lots have changed ever since.

Definitely, watching threads go out of control annoys me, seeing pointless threads appear, people stealing stuff. I would of course not abuse my powers and be a firm supporter of the PC rules and try my hardest to not let anything slip through the radar of a thread check such as some rom hack threads in which a person bases there hack on another one and the thread is accepted which outrages me sometimes.

Interesting seeing other people's reasons too, good thread idea michael ;)

Me, become a Mod?! That's like giving a psycho a bomb and he goes blowing himself and everybody around him up!!

If I had was offered to become a Mod, I'd turn it down. I'm not good at that stuff at all and knowing what power I'd have, I'd most likely abuse it.

If i was offered Modship.. i'd probably say YES! But i would probably think about it first, e.g. what area i was modding. And because Modship brings so much responsibility, i would think about it even more! I'd probably say yes, because that BLUE USERNAME is sooo cool. Lol.

Oh man you guys I'd freak out and say no :( Those staff people are jerks.

No no, just kidding XD I really wasn't asked when I was modded, I was just talking to Morkula and he added Lightning in the chat, and they said I wasn't allowed to keep my purple Community Supporters name anymore (this was like a week after I got it). After watching me baaaaw for a few minutes, they linked me to my profile and I realised why... XD; When I was remodded after I quit nothing special happened though :(

Pretty sure I'd say yes. For most of my time on PC I've been serving as a moderator, the first time I accepted the job around 2005 time was because I wanted to make amends to the Home of the Sprites (now Pixel Art) section, the second time I accepted last year was because apparently, OVP needed a new mod and I had experience with the job. But I accepted them simply because I cared enough about PC. Would I accept a mod position again? Probably, despite the fact that I'm not as active as I used to be in the past, I still care about what goes on around here to make sure things are kept in balance.

I probably would, if it was for a forum I had some interest in. And I guess the fat, colored, cursive people don't pick new mods randomly, but rather people who seem to know what they're doing there.

Probably. You would be respected(not to mentioned insulted or gossiped secretly...) and it would be cool.

But the responsibility you have to carry. Ughhh...

That' so cool. But I'd probably say no. I mean, I'm me, who would want me as a mod. xDD

It was probably gonna be meant as a joke.

If I were asked to mod the fanfiction area, I would gladly accept. As mod, I would keep an eye out for spam, help vetran writers improve, and encourage new writers

No, I would not accept. I have a giant workload at school, and extra responsibility does not help much. :\
As they say, with great power comes great responsibility.

I don't believe in myself! I believe in my Pokemon who believe in me!!!

I'd probably accept. Senior year is coming up. Yes, I'll be busy with cheerleading, but I'd still be able to come on quite a lot. (Being only-half-grounded rocks!) Although if it was a section I never posted in, I'd probably ask for a different section. Considering that I wouldn't know much about that section. The place I've talked the most is OVP, so being a mod of that would be cool.

Plus the fact that I enjoy telling newbies what they're doing wrong, and generally coming down hard on idiots who keep breaking the rules.

And the fact that I dOnt TyPe liK this omg!!!!1!! Haha, I hate it when people do that. So I'd be like part-time Grammar Nazi, part time Mod, part time nice-Savannah.

I'd decline.

I don't think I'd do a very good job, since managing other people isn't something I'm very good at. On one hand, I'm a weenie and don't want to be involved in conflicts, and on the other, I can be pretty harsh if overwhelmed or pushed to the edge. Plus, as annoying as netspeaking n00bs and trolls are, I don't wanna be mean to anyone.
