25. Spam Mod Nominees - what makes you think you'd be a good mod?

I guess I'm obliged to answer this.... ?

I don't expect to be a good Mod, because it isn't about the 'Mod'. What counts for a Mod, is being a part of the 'Team'. What rest of the site views as 'Good' and 'Bad' mods, is simply a 'team' effort enacted by one mod who will take the rap for whatever comes out of it, whether it be hatred from a community or love and admiration. If you love your site and how it works, all your mods have done a good job working together. If you hate the site, then something just might be wrong with your mod team. We are a team, and at the end of the day, we all go to bed exhausted and whether we like it or not... think about you guys and how we can make this place a better site for everyone, cause this is a site we've grown to love ourselves. There is no other reason we'd put up with the stuff we are faced with. So yea... "That crappy mod, Guru" might bug me a bit, but it's ok. I can deal with it. It's a part of my job here that each of us work tooth and nail at. Sophi isn't the only one of us who has done a lot behind the scenes. We all have, at one point or another. I recall times, where stuff would just hit the fan and Sophi would be in here working her butt off trying to get things figured out. Next shift comes around, and I'd pick up where she left off. Then Gat... until the situation was resolved. THAT is what a 'Good' Mod is. Someone who can make up a good 'Team' and get stuff done, no matter what happens... because we have an appreciation for this site and it's community. I have the up most respect for those who came before me, and those who will be there after me.

I know... perhaps a little too 'serious' for a spam thread, but the truth needed to be spoken.
