In order to be a mod, do you need to have never had a post deleted?

In other words, do you need to have a spotless record?
When application time comes up again, I'm thinking about it.
But I have had the odd post or two deleted (lost my temper a bit once or twice).
:shrug:
Whatdaya think?

Nope, I can't say that I have.

(I would be VERY wary of being a mod in the lounge, LOL! WHAT a job.)

5. Thanks for the quick replies, I appreciate it. |
|
I've at least learned to be very careful with what I say. AND when I really want to say something I know I shouldn't, I do tend to get up and get away from the computer for a bit. That's never failed me.
Those deleted posts came as such a shock--when the first one happened, I was terrified I was tombstoned!!!

I was wondering the same thing...I am also thinking about modding during the next time period.

7. You would be a great mod! |
|
I think you're very fair, and give people the benefit of the doubt. You also have superior troll-sniffing skills! :o

You've lost your temper but are also Ste. Patience, so that balances out.

I don't know about the Saint part. That's definitely questionable.
But I do thank you!

12. I was just reading your amazing performance |
|
on a thread in GD, and was wondering if that deleted message was yours...
You really do have incredible patience. That sh*t is out-of-control over in that thread!
I could certainly picture one of those little grey people next to your name!

14. No, as far as I know I have no deleted messages in that thread. |
|
I'll double check, but I don't think so.
Thanks for saying what you did, that's very nice!

I am the DUer Least Likely To Be Allowed To Be A Mod! Bush will admit failure in Iraq before I ever have a grey icon next to my name. :P

16. Deleted posts are like fouls in basketball |
|
If you never get any, you're really not playing the game hard enough.

21. You should apply. It's a marvelous experience. :-) |
|
Apply the next moderator change. One deleted post (or two) isn't going to disqualify you. Actually, since you'll be a new applicant, you'll have a better chance of getting chosen (the admins are always looking for new people)
Good luck! :-)
