      cons -

      you get to know who is a sockie and who is real
      you get to read all those im's
      you cant join in for a laugh
      you have to bite your tongue when you are cheesed
      you have to explain yourself to, often drunken, bums
      you have to watch the legal stuff
      you have to monitor those fruit loops
      often in a no-win situation



      which ones have I missed ?

      You haven't seen my version of moderating yet, have you?

        Moderators don't get to see IP addresses, and can't look at PMs, unless they also have database access.
        Aye, I believe TheFaQQ is right.

        Mods on some boards have very little rights.

          I think that you should have at least 5000 posts before you are a moderator. Preferably more than 9000 posts.

            MrsF moderates another forum (where I am also a member) that uses vBulletin - I asked her whether she could see what I was writing to others about her, and she said not. But she knew someone who could...

                  I vote for EO. I won't reason that choice with anything other than that his posts are always balanced, interesting and informed.

                    AndyW for president.
