How the hell did I become a mod here? How do I opt out?

    Hey I guess I should probably update my CV to include “Internet moderator” now…

    Kidding aside, I don’t want to disrupt the community and the members just to get noticed. I don’t even know how I got to be a moderator in the first place, and I’m not sure a mod can just pick anyone and make them a mod without that person’s approval.

      With such communities, there is barely anything to do as a moderator. Once every year, someone will whine at you because another one is “rude”. You just ignore him. Maybe an advertisement or two to remove. That’s all.
