Asking puts you at the bottom of the pile.

To make you a mod they have to suck your blood. And then you have to suck their blood. It's like a whole big sucking thing. Mostly they're just gonna ban you.

You've played Alpha Centurai, right? The trancendence victory gives a good description of it. The self aware colony is good as well.

You spend "x" amount of time at 'Poly, make good contributions to the forums, earn the respect of your fellows and you might just be eligible for mod status someday.

Contribute a lot of meaningful stuff, make yourself stand out (in a good way) and don't ask for it. Then one day, far off in the future, if an opening were to open up, there's a miniscule chance you'd be considered.

Most of em got to be mods by volunteering to do stuff and being helpful during the early days of the site.
The rest of us just pointed and laughed.

The first step to becoming a mod is being insane.
Spending hours each day spanking kids over the internet (as another poster colourfully put it with regard to Ming).

Maybe because you feel mighty or something along that line?

Be related to one.
On the serious side, not wanting to be a mod is probably the number 1 requirement.

The last thing we want is 2 senile mods giving out pcr's because their pets told them to.

The fun thing about them being senile is that they would forget they gave you a PCR immediately and thus give you another one , try becoming deity under those circomstances...
