So, are you saying you don't have the qualifications or experience? because from the questions here and the comment sin the New Mod thread, you said you were still learning to be a mod.
From her responses I would guess that she's learning this system. It's pretty likely that her other mod roles didn't use the same forum software.

I appreciate the honesty, and it would have gone a long way from the beginning.

There those of us who are going to hold you to the professionalism you talked about bringing, primarily because the other mods have lost that kind of faith that we can keep them honest.

I know it sounds like I'm personally grilling you harder than you deserve to be, and I probably am, but keep in mind I have my reasons, even if you don't understand them, know what they are, etc.

A lot of us appreciate the honesty, but I will say this: Do not make a habit of "better late than never", because sometimes being late... may as well be never. As some of us have already experienced.

So, are you saying you don't have the qualifications or experience? because from the questions here and the comment sin the New Mod thread, you said you were still learning to be a mod.

I have some experience, but that's when I was younger and when I was a mod there that site wasn't well known and ultimately failed. Over the years since then, I may have forgotten a few things.

Yes. I am still learning to be a mod on AH, seeing as how every site is different and have different procedures and policies. It's just like accepting a new job in a similar field, you may know some things but everywhere is run differently.

I'm sorry I wasn't honest up front with all of you in the beginning, perhaps things would've gone differently last night if I was.

it isn't even a paid position!
This is the kind of answer that I don't like seeing.
Because yes you are a volunteer, but if you don't wanna do it properly might as well not volunteer.

So yeah, that is not a reply I ever consider acceptable in these situations.

1. Rudeness

3. Christmas, I like spending time with family.
4. Have you checked Chinatown out yet? Perhaps he got lost around there, I don't know how people can get into big trouble trouble in such a little town.
5. Are you talking about jobs or the video games? lol
6. Why not Boosh?

1) Are there any foods you hated as a child that you've developed an appreciation for as an adult?

2) You mentioned your favorite book was a fictionalized historical romance, but you chose not to provide the title for some reason. May I ask the book's title? If you'd really prefer not to share it, may I ask why not? Your reply suggested that the person asking would not be interested in the title, but passive-aggressive lurkers like myself might be curious to know.

3) When it comes to mythology, do you tend to prefer Greek, Norse, Egyptian, Celtic, Mesopotamian, [other]?

4) What is your philosophy of leadership?

5) Any food allergies so we know what not to bake into your cookies?

1. No not really, I mean the only things from my childhood that I really didn't like were miracle whip, mustard and barbeque sauce and I still don't like them lol.
2. If you really would like to know it's called A Kingdom of Dreams by Judith McNaught.
3. I'm mostly familiar with Greek mythology so I would have to say I prefer Greek over the others.
4. Leadership is a hard position that requires a lot of hard work and determination.
5. Uh, not that I know of. Though, come to think of it, when I was in elementary school I had some shrimp poppers for lunch that made my throat all itchy and scratchy, so I might be allergic to iodine in seafood? lol

Sure, just deliver an authentic crystal skull and a vile of virgin blood to my door step. But you'll have to wait until I can get each item verified for authenticity, before any cards will be issued. lol.
