Long time no see, did you see that Hoff pic I threw at you in the Lounge? :D

Its a hard job, being a moderator for those that choose to participate in the actual motions, and procedures of the Moderator Forum. When I first arrived, I was under the impression that mods just roamed around deleted things that were bad/offensive(I was use to that in other forums), but I was very taken aback at how much effort goes into the process.

I'm don't want to appear to be excusing things, I know I made mistakes, I make a lot of them, but I'm pretty quick to own up to them. With Moderating you can't win, or lose it seems, but its part of the job, and I was willing to take the burden on. Like you, CMW, at first I was more hands on as a Moderator, but after my first term I thought it best to take a more "hands off" approach, and that hands off approach didn't change from time to time, because I am human, we do make mistakes, but for the most part I was a hands off type of moderator. Outside of my first term, I probably alert 5 times per term, and only for bad site links to bigoted websites.
