QUOTE(fenzodahl512 @ Jul 21 2010, 01:25 PM) Being a moderator in a LYN-size forum is tough.. one don't want to be a moderator just because he has enough knowledge or wants to contribute more in the forum.. It won't work like that.. Being a moderator means you took the responsibility and facing a lot of pressure to perform.. Moderating task is not easy.. A lot of patience is needed.. More so, to be a leader, one don't purposely promote thyself as leader.. One may act like a leader, speak like a leader, contribute as a leader but never promote thyself as a leader.. Then people around will see one as a leader, thus appoint one as theirs.. cant agree more  people around you will tell you if you are a leader. you dont have to tell them

Being a normal member doesn't mean you can't contribute to the forum.
It's harder then you think but it's more rewarding to use constructive criticism (without curses or insults) and find facts to support your case in order to convince the forumer you're targeting.
It takes patience and lots of discipline to ignore all their insults and non constructive criticism such as "You kids don't know anything, LOL, Just RTFM" etc.
If you are implying that being a normal member can't contribute to the forum, then it's just similar as saying being a normal citizen can't contribute to the country. You'd have to become a politician to contribute to the country? It's actually everyone, engineers, teachers, doctors, truck drivers, hawker stall uncle and aunties who contribute most to the countries while politicians set policies only.
Similar here, contributors = members. Mods enforces policy in the forum. Staff helps out something else related to Lowyat.net such as forum codes, hosting needs, etc...
BTW, this is the first time I've read your post and it's not giving me any good 1st impression of you as a mod at all. Perhaps later in the future though.

LOL. u know i could have a jolly good time answering each and every reply here...but nah.. You know what? I've decided to let this idea slide...since the manner of which i would be appointed a moderator would have caused massive displeasure among the forumers. Everybody would start opening threads and asking for things ( they dont realize they're not teongpeng, they cant do things teongpeng can), and cause havoc for the staffs and admins. So being the understanding and nice and humble and wise kinda guy that i am....i would like to say thank you to all those who show encouragements and also those who provided constructive feedbacks (even the mean ones)....and proceed to close this thread.
