So you want to be an HN.com Moderator? OK

I feel like I should be given the opportunity to be a mod. If I'm busy "mod-ing" I won't have time to post about firing Ferentz, or how not making a bowl for the next three years is going to be really depressing.

Remember that movie "Catch Me if you Can"? it is about that check forger/conman, who was so good at what he does, that they take him out of prison and then he became a millionaire developing ways to prevent check forging? That's me?

Who better to weed out the trolls, losers, idiots, and malcontents than a person who knows how they think and understands how they operate?

I would prefer a Sneakers reference but that is a good point.

Is this a job that I am not eligible for? Like an ex-con can't become a cop or something? I think I'd be a pretty good mod, since I happen to spend 12 hours a day here, and not only understand the culture and vernacular, but helped build it as well. Also, my time under the hammer gives me a pretty good perspective on what is and is not acceptable in these parts.

I know it's a long shot, but give me a shot. To sweeten the pot, if I am given this responsibility, I promise to never use the following words again: teh, moar, le, poast, leik, etc...

You will have to do better than this if you want to be considered as you very seldom use the word "etc".

 

[storminspank]

I think I might might like to try my hand at this moderating thing.

I am still waiting on being able to post lines, so I won't hold my breath.
