Be a kind, helpful and active member:)

Thanks :)
1. Check. 2. fail I believe. 3. Check. :D

Now I just have to work on number 2. :)

I bet the current mods have to like you as well. I also assume you'd need to get noticed by the community manager people... and be unknown. >_>

Down with the mod squad!!! I mean...

Being apart of the mod team is fun...people are great and I get to give back to a site that I met a lot of friends on and got some help with gaming with.

SolidSnake35

do you have to be fromnorth america to be a mod? how else will they deliver those magazines with total access?

If you're not from America, you just don't get them. I have total access and they won't send them to me.

Adblock never worked fully anyway. Also, you can't block the ads that run before videos or the full page ones that lead you away from the site.

I wouldn't try too hard. They probably know who they want anyway. Besides, they just picked a lot of new mods recently.

I see then I guess I would pay for that option also but adds don't bother me all that much.

I would actually. I feel as though I could do a better job than some current mods, who are, as far as I'm concerned, out of touch with the community.SolidSnake35

Hit it on the head! Also there so many new mods they should of had a little introductionceremony.

I'm afraid my perception of what is and what is not against the rules would be a little skewed; anything I find amusing would probably be acceptable. :P
