No.
so you dont think dark shikari would be a good forum mod? 
Rule #1 for forum mods: You should know the rules and not break them. Forum *****s bend and break those rules a lot, as I'm sure you are aware of. That's the main reason why a "forum *****" can't get in. Secondly, DS's posting time would decrease and people would start getting worried.

If U make good englsh you bee good CArC.
Being a part of ISD is a blast, if you've ever been helped in eve this is a wonderful way to give back while getting the chance to explore the game from a new angle. Beyond the basics you'll also get chances to interact with the people at CCP more often and the members of the other ISD divisions.
Plus you get to spam threads \o/

Also, to become a moderator, one mustn't have any bans; this makes it completely impossible for anyone who frequently post on the forums to become a moderator, as the forum warning/ban system is designed specifically to penalize people who post more often, while benefiting people who troll and break the rules.
Example:
Forum hoe breaks a rule every 1000 posts. After 10,000 posts, he's banned forever. He probably had fewer bans per post than anyone else on all of EVE-O, but that doesn't matter; he's gone.
Troll posts a whole bunch of insults, flames, and outright attacks. He gets a warning or two, and moves to a new alt. No loss. I have seen quite a number of blatant trolls on the forum; often if you see a trolling thread, you can look at his last 15 posts and see that nearly all of them are insults or the like. However, since he doesn't post that much, its unlikely a moderator will ever notice these posts. I've seen people get away with telling people they would kill them IRL, massive sprees of curse words, and so on, without ever getting their posts even edited.
But if I even got remotely close to even touching the border of a rule, I'd get banned. And as I browse the forums I see boatloads of attacks and smacktalk that is far worse than what I've gotten warnings for in the past, yet never gets edited. I look back at it later, even after a mod cleans the thread, and its still not edited. I once got a warning for telling someone (without any insults) that there were too many whines about server lag on the forums and that they should try to be more constructive. I'm completely serious.
I don't fault the mods. The system is flawed, not its execution.
Wrangler told me he would fix this. Its been over a year. And I'm still waiting.
I hope that whoever joins the mod team in this recruitment drive attempts to counter the systemic bias of the current moderation system. That means tempbanning obvious trolls and flame-only characters on sight and judging the more prolific forum posters by their overall posting habits, not on a single post which may have crossed the line by a few angstroms.
P.S. I guess this is discussing moderation, but it is a reasonable discussion.

It's a Non Disclosure Agreement (NDA) and Terms of Play (ToP), which basically means you might have access to information you may not tell others and some rules on how to behave. But it is legally binding and breaking it can have severe consequences. 
If you tell people CCP's secret alliance with BoB they will find you and do some kind of weird Icelandic torture on you involving the free goat you were supposed to get.
My appricashun:
Helo CPP I see u need forum mod 4 eve this is my app. Plz tak me i'm gud at gamez i play mmos and i use forums but sometimes its hard please email me
thx

I sent my application, hope their not overwhelmed by applications and that mine actually gets attention :)
The form i used didn't have specific questions about email clients or irc related experience... or even age. So that part kind of got left out from it.
Also, im not that sure it got sent either, it uses the cached username on the site to send the application, right? where would i get an answer in this case?

any respectable forum ***** will have reached 5 warnings, so no. It is better to be a lurker and make the few occasional post than post a lot.

Not true, we have and have had some big posters. If you'd ever find out, which you wont, you'd be very surprised.

Pfft. Sounds a bit too much like work to me. I mean, I suspect that correcting grammar on forum posts might not go down all that well...
Does posting 'IBTL' if you are actually locking a post count as 'spam'? That'd be worth it right there ...
And you don't have to have picked up warnings to have been an active poster. At least, I don't _think_ I've got any, and am on a 4/day posting average.

Not at all James. For most of us it just makes sense since we are on the forums as much as we are. I know I enjoy doing it. It really is a lot of fun and the other moderators are truly nutz!
However, when Wrangler breaks out the whips, most of us run.

There ahve been a large number of applications and the moderation team elads are screening them now. However, please be patient if you have not received a response after a week or two. The team leads still have to perform their other duties, regardless of Wrangler *****s the whip or not.

Yeah, it's hard to post several thousand times and not slip up here and there.
Every 1000 helpful forum posts should remove a warning from the record. Although DS would have negitive warnings, and just go off the deep end to even it out.

Judging by the number of typos in kieron's post, I'd say Wrangler's whip is currently *****ing quite nicely on his lil' knuckles.
But I wanna be a mod so I can hijack peoples' signatures... since no one ever hijacked mine...

CCP couldn't PAY me to moderate this whiny bunch of forum *****s. I understand why. In a game where loss is permanent, you will have an above average amount of whiners.
Still, it would take some sort of creative reward (deposit 5 billion isk into my account on the first of every month) to even get me to consider such a masochistic undertaking.

Once more - If you don't appreciate the work ISD or CRC does, there is no need to flame or troll. This isn't a thread to rant or whine. Stay civil. Stay on topic.

I'd like to be a mod if you're still asking for people.
Been playing for 4months, almost 5 now, 18 years old, was an Op on an IRC channel for a year or so, and have run a forum before. (In fact, I still run one).
I just have one question..
My ingame char will be able to continue business as usual, right?
