I volunteer.

I volunteer to be a moderator. I'll ban every spammer. Vote me in, 2006.

This man has my vote.

How does one become a mod and what duties (other than dealing with malicious spammers) are involved with it?

Welbourne, you will always have my vote.

Last time modship went around, Daniel simply asked Eramus and cheesejoff if they wanted to be mods, as they together seemed to be on 24/7...of course Erasmus wasbearing the brunt of that...

Chaltier is a special case; the FE believer section was his brainchild, so he's responsible for it.

Basically the mod duties seem to be to stop spammers and keep people adhering to the forum rules, which are fairly lenient, as forums go.

I wish I could be a mad, escpecially since Erasmus doesnt seem to be on much anymore.

I wish I could be mad as well...Grrrr! I'm angry!

Alright now that that's out of my system...I expect that the reason the mods don't seem to be on lately is because it's summer, and they're taking much needed vacations, I know that Cinlef is, at the very least.  

I don't really see a need for new mods, to be honest, because, if our regular mods were on atm, they'd have the mess cleaned up...*edited as per cheesejoff's request*
In any case, if EP or Daniel logs in any time in the near future and sees this post, *edited as per cheesejoff's request*, and, if our regular mods haven't returned from the beaches with their well-developped tans by then, we implement a few temporary mods until they return, so that this mess can be cleaned up.

Doing that Cinlef-post-signing-thing,
6strings.

i think we should get rid of all the spam

I agree as well.

Me too.
