Being a moderator isn't that difficult, its pretty simple if you have half a brain actually. Its a Pokemon forum after all, the problems that arise are pretty easy to solve. It can get extremely frustrating at times (depending on where you mod obviously). I do miss pwning noobs though, it was a good way to relieve stress.
I wouldn't want to go back to modding Rom Hacking but I wouldn't mind modding a place like OVP or OC since there are far fewer retards in those sections. Although if I was asked now I'd say no.
Well, modding actually caused stress for me, as I had the hell hole. I'm terrible at dealing with stress, which made the modding experience less fun. Despite that, I enjoyed helping others, cleaning up the forum, having wild mod parties, etc.
The first time I was asked, I didn't expect it, even though everyone said I was the obvious candidate. I was never offered such a big position (big to me :x!) before, so it was pretty different. Typically, I would just shy away in the masses and eventually stop coming online; however, I finally made a voice for myself. I'm a nobody on other forums. Naturally, modship gave me power, but I didn't go crazy with it; it kinda went crazy to me. Too much mawd j00ce led to my downfall.
If I was asked again, I would squeal and then die on the inside. As for accepting, it depends on what forum, as there are more mellow places than DPPt. If I had to go back to DPPt, eh, honestly, it's easier now with multiple mods and somewhat smarter members, ye spoiled kids.
Either way, I would always come back for more; deep down, I love a good challenge. If everything was handed out to you like a plate of cookies, life would be too easy. Everyone that says they lack the faith or courage or whatever.. Well, that's the challenge, to learn how to cope when given a huge responsibility despite your issues, and ultimately, learning from your mistakes and experiencing something irreplaceable.
