I am the moderator of 3 of my own small groups but they're annoying me at the minute, and I don't think I have time time and I only joined here about a week or so ago... I don't really want to but teens as mods...? a little odd I think, what would the job involve?

Not too odd actually. You have teens helping teens with their problems which allows for a more personal touch. It's an excellent idea.

Yeah...But an older person would be more wiser and gone through all that too...

As has already been explained, the idea behind hiring younger moderators is to foster leadership qualities so that someday they can be the new Administrators. We Admins won't be here forever.

Thats a sad thought at the same time =(

Well, we have to be realistic. I have no intention of leaving soon, but at some point it will be ridiculous to have 30-year-old Administrators in a group meant for teens.

Yeah... just a tad bit, and a tad strange. But what Hale said would be my problem

Do you really need more moderators? the forums aren't that big.
Two, whats up with this guy? http://www.furryteens.org/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=820

This is a person with extensive knowledge on website databases and interfaces. CMS, SQL, JAVA ect. And is a general consultant for this site on progressing a few things.

I has extensive knowledge of a few content management systems, Java (as much as I dislike it), SQL, and ASP.NET MVC, and PHP if needed.... plus a few other languages.

I'd gladly help out with internal stuff, but I have no interest in being a part of the moderation staff

Oh, I almost forgot: Good Luck Xalex. We have had some differences in the past (Which now I see your point

), but good luck to you anyway.

maybe the next time you guys are routing around for mod's I'll give it a shot, but not right now

Mik · « **Reply #34 on:** February 12, 2009, 05:16:50 pm »

I wonder when that will be? Possibly in a few years 0_o

I changed my mind, I have applied after all. Worst case scenario is that the world ends as a result, and I have to watch everything I love be destroyed before suffering an equally painful and slow death.

More likely, The Powers that Be will say no for the same reasons I didn't want to apply. Save maybe the 'I'd feel like Natashas replacement' bit. But whatever.
Best case - I am a new mod, and I get to help out a bit. Yay!
