Believe was attempted while we got acquainted with IPS on a testing site, never (that I know of) on the real KSP forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen it happen at least once and I trolled the moderator about it, but the truth is I'm always afraid I'll screw this up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's along the lines of a vote between the moderators. Mod one makes suggestion, mod 2-2089645 vote on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sgt Doomball Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 @Kuzzter you know it was mostly a joke right. It was April 1st. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dman979 Posted February 21, 2017 Author Share Posted February 21, 2017 I'm pretty sure that RIC was telling the truth there. I've never know him to be sarcastic about anything at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tex Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 I can attest to RIC's answer. I still reek of peanut butter and it's been months since the initiation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought so, too--but when I saw your question (which has been asked and answered a few times in this thread and in other places) I googled the forum for you to find the answer and that's what came up. And since @Tex confirmed it, it must be true! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tex Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 The worst part was that they put a video of the whole thing up on..... Well, I probably should leave that part out. Breach of contract, and all that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt Doomball Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 No it was an April Fools joke. And KasperVld is not a lead mod anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, the only no longer applicable piece of information is that, rather than give Kasper the $1000 fee, you split it halfway between Badie and UomoCapra. It took a long time to save up.

Sgt Doomball Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 $1000 FEE?! That is actually very outrageous, even for someone like me who's parents have to pay charter fees for me to stay in Boy Scouts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snark Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 5 hours ago, Sgt Doomball said: How do you become a moderator? Joking aside, it's a pretty frequently asked question here in this thread-- just start reading back until you find the last person who asked about it. The TL;DR is: be over 18; be someone who has established a track record in the forums that shows you have the kind of values they're looking for in a moderator, and none of the red flags that would say "don't!"; and then wait until either they ask you if you want to be one, or else they may specifically announce that they're looking for someone. The moderators are generally people who are here on the forum a lot, and get to know the cast of characters here, so whenever the discussion comes up "hey, we need some fresh meat", generally there's no shortage of suggestions from the moderator team about people we think might make good moderators.

munlander1 Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 How do you guys "train" when you guys become mods. I don't think they just set you free after joining the irc chat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
