Junior Moderator
Hmmm... Just a quick question.
How does one go about becoming a junior moderator??
I really want to work hard for that desired position... but I would not dream of such an honor for a long time....
Just wondering if someone could offer some guidance for a young, naive hypographer....

Through certified mail, send a cashier's check in an amount to be determined at a later time to:
InfiniteNow
69 Present Path
Austin, TX 78701
You will then be sent a packet within 1 month of receipt of your payment with paperwork requiring your signature, social security number, date of birth, mother's maiden name, eye color, favorite ice cream flavor, and how old you were when you lost your virginity... |

Re: Junior Moderator
The staff periodically extends invitations to members to become mods. Myself, Jay-Qu and CraigD becam JMods the first week of March. Pyrotex, Chacmool and InfiniteNow are the newest JMods. There is no schedule for when this happens.
Post well, stick around for a while, and it may happen for you one day too.

Re: Junior Moderator
As a need opens up, mods and admins nominate members to become mods. There is also a Staff Positions forum we created to list solicitations for help....

Re: Junior Moderator
Don't try to become a Jmod, just be yourself, post intelligently and courteously, and be involved in discussions. It doesn't hurt to be knowledgable, but it is not necessary so long as you are willing to learn.

Re: Junior Moderator
We recruit moderators as needed, usually when a moderator is promoted to "senior" moderator or administrator, or when a mod has to leave us for a while to do Real Life stuff. The mods and admins then make lists of candidates and discuss it before we vote and send invitations to join the team as Junior Moderators. The J-mod status is a "moderator in training" position and after a month or two they are promoted to full moderator status.
So, as has been mentioned already, simply be yourself, and be active in the particular sections of Hypography that you are interested in moderating, and you *will* be noticed.
