Low level Mods?

I remember seeing a Mod a while ago who only had 800 posts, and I've just seen a more recent one who had 1,800. I know that post count really doesn't matter, but is 800 really enough to evaluate if they'd make an effective mod?

At what point do you think a user should become a mod (level, posts, time here, etc)?

Mods aren't chosen based on anything accept whether or not they are helping the community.

I'm sure reporting users for breaking the rules helps. Also helping out in the welcome newbies forums would help.

As long as they do a good job, I don't care what level/post count they have. Though, I'd much prefer them to be a regular at the board they moderate at.the_foreign_guy

[QUOTE="AirGuitarist87"] But that's exactly my thoughts on this. How can someone be a regular with just 800 posts? Hell, air6 made a topic a short while ago asking what people thought of him and a vast majority didn't considering him regular enough to be recognised at 2,000.fastesttruck

I think experience is a necessity. How can you affirm someone is a good user if they never post.? It's politics like anyting else in life anyway....LJS9502_basic

I doubt much screening is actually done. If you haven't trampled on anyone toes, are relatively mod free and ask for it....you have a chance. It's just a forum dude.LJS9502_basic
