ZTG wrote Question for all of you mods.


What was your thoughts / reaction to Sean asking you to join the staff team? And do you like being a mod/rookie staff member?

Scizor wrote Sean didn't actually ask me to be a Moderator, actually nobody asked me. I remember being on TTG one night and Mark started going crazy on IM telling me to check his profile and low and behold he was a Sectional Moderator. Then he told me to check my profile and I was also a mod. It was either r00t or hippie that promoted us, I don't remember.

I didn't mind being the new moderator, everyone was always helpful and offering advice, not to mention it was fun hearing some of the ragging from older staff members, aka "Stay in your lane kid"

So ya kinda had no choice? Sean just kidnapped you and took him to his basement without any consent.

I don't even think Sean knew I was a staff member for a good while lol.

I could have always told them "Nah I don't want this" but that wouldn't have been fun. Besides, if they had asked me I absolutely would have said yes. Being a member of the staff team is a great experience.

I was talking to Sean about some pacman game on steam and I noticed when I went back in the shoutbox that I had a hammer next to my name. I messaged him and he said: "Oh by the way congrats you're now a mod. Go and bother speed for help."

Now all I do is spam speed 24/7. Haha jk but it was pretty cool to see that he has that trust in me.

Yes I like being a moderator. It's really nice to help people at a higher level.

To be fair when we were planning these AMA's I asked which staff would like to participate and Famous never responded until after this was posted.

Obviously be able to showcase your wizardry or ninja abilities

We also occasionally hold contests for both, there is currently a Ninja contest going on right now.

I'm quite fond of some of my stupid avatars if I do say so myself, but Telli's HAL 9000 is pretty cool as well.

Favorite moment didn't take place on TTG but involved TTG members. The day after christmas 2-3 years ago I was in a Skype call with some people from here and Nasa had gotten a soda stream for christmas. You know, those water carbonating machines that you add soda mix to and make soda? Well I guess he had made a mess because through nasa's mic we hear "NASA (his real name tho) COME CLEAN UP THIS DAMN MESS. YOU SPILLED SODA EVERYWHERE", or something to that extent. Hearing their argument and Nasa being told to clean up his soda stream put me in tears from laughing.

Also the time I got the Awesome badge was pretty awesome too. I remember I had just gotten done playing ultimate frisbee with some friends and I saw in the shoutbox r00t came in and said "Two people just got awesome was it you", and so I checked my profile and it turns out both me and Mark got rated awesome. Was cool because before then I had never really earned any recognition on the site and I had considered myself a scrub (some might argue I still am )

This wraps things up for our Moderator AMA, thanks everyone for participating and if your question got glanced over without a response, feel free to PM your question to a staff member.

Don't forget to check out the Admin AMA, which will be happening tomorrow
