I just put this when I thought about the idea of a particular poster being made a mod as to the matter above. No, I am not telling you who that is. Nice try.

No. And my moderation philosophy is very different from the one here, so for that reason alone I could never be an Atlas moderator. AAD is my backyard.

I hate censorship and I really hate self-censorship. I'm not going to pretend to be someone I'm not, under any circumstances.

I honestly think I never make posts that deserve moderation, and apparently the powers that be agree with me, because currently I don't have a single moderated post.

I've only had two moderated posts I think--one where I called Hifly a bigot (which was probably deserved IMO and seemed like a bit of an overreach) and one where I forgot about the ban on cursing and used the F word.

If I'm making posts which should be moderated, please let me know.

I’d probably take this site more seriously and post something besides bad one-liners and SirWoodbury quotes. But my off-line life is just far too interesting to type more than two sentences at a time.

I'm a moderator on AAD and the only thing I've really changed is posting slightly more often on the boards I moderate than I otherwise would.

The whole moderation things is over-rated.

Good luck to those who choose to do it, but I found it very tiring on a previous forum.

I've been an AAD mod since 2018 and haven't moderated a single post. Smile

I didn't get moderated all that much before I became a moderator and didn't change. Surprising, considering how awful of a mindstate I was in then.

After my tenure, I've had a much looser tongue and have been generally more willing to break TOS if I find it necessary.

Yes. Being an unpaid internet political forum moderator would cause my alcohol consumption to quintuple as a baseline.

I was a moderator for a while on a different forum, so I actually know exactly how I'd behave. Basically I relentlessly bullied anyone who liked Man of Steel until they left the site.
