If you ask me, this entire [i]moddation[/i] business is getting the lot of us paranoid. It’s almost all that we talk about anymore. Last week, right before I left for vaccation, we were talking about mods, and when I get back, we are talking about mods once more. Quite frankly, people are getting obsessed with getting a mod title. I see this as a major problem; just like post-counters and short topic lists were problems in the past. When Sketch announced that there would be new mods he accidentally started this sort of contest- a contest that no one was willing to admit was really there.
I also beleive it's safe to say that that all of us have gotten mod-fever, save for the mods, of course.
The solution? Well, for now, sadly, there is none. Other than the fact than [i]next time[/i] pick mods at random, otherwise we'll have people competing for the title.

Moderation is something I haven't been trying to obtain. I'm curious with the issue and I do my best to help, but I know that with moderation comes a restriction to speak your mind. Moderators can't tell people off, really. They're supposed to set examples. And, as you all know, I like telling people off. However, if asked I would do it. It's nothing big, I've done it before.
