How Would You Feel If You Were Asked To Be A Moderator?
Ironic:
Originally, I was going to repost this so I can get an accurate number on the poll...But hey, I am sure everyone would love to be on the team ^^
My opinion on the matter is...I would be so speechless if I woke up one morning and saw I was given the title. I think I would cry before even replying. To see my work finally recognized and my love, hm, truly a God giving moment, c; I've never been a staff before, but I have been a staff on some other roleplaying site. Then again, roleplaying site and FeralHeart are two different things...so heh.
Anyway, very confused and other mixed feelings.

Scared of responsibility
And my timezone

i'd decline.
doesn't matter what anyone would see in me- heck, from my end i don't post often- only if i know i can impact a thread and that my opinions have a good reason to be out there do i pipe up, i'm only on 3-4 hours a day now that i'm trying to fix my sleep schedule and can't be online most of the daylight hours, i have plans that will take me far but will severely reduce my activity in 2021..
i don't agree with how some of the rules are presented, i prefer less people have less control over me, i'd hate to have to bring out the modhammer on my friends, i'd hate to have that sort of edge over them when i play this game solely to have fun and as a creative outlet- to tag responsibilities and incentive onto that would crush my already spotty drive for it.
i don't know most of the current staff team at all- mutuals at best and strangers at worst, i'm stubborn with my views, easily fired up, quick to disagree and i'm very guilty of saying things i don't mean or haven't thought through.
end of the day? i'm just a leave me be and i'll leave you be kinda person.

Uhm, to be honest, as most of everyone here said, I'd be completely confused as to why pff.
I've never been in a staff position other than, what, twice? The first time was for a group here on FH, but sadly the group died off quickly for the creator never carried through with the plans, and I guess lost interest in the group. The second time would be ALSO with a group on FH. That "term," if you will, of being a mod/admin, lasted a fair while. I loved every moment of it, and I wish I could bring it back. Simply for the fact I loved that group and I wish it didn't die xD It was the creator's choice however to shut it down.
Any-who. I, again, would be honestly confused as to why they'd ask me, but because I love this game so much, I'd possibly accept and try my hardest to be the best mod I could possibly be for everyone~

^ my first reply to this thread here. Wow I've grown since then lol
I was completely in disbelief when it happened. I was shocked at the very least when I was offered to join the team- something I thought wouldn't ever happen, well, happened. Not only that but I was asked by the, in my opinion, most unlikely person. In all honesty I accepted out of excitement at first rather than thinking about what I may be getting myself into, however, through all the hardships I've had up until now I will say that without a doubt I do not regret a thing. I thought joining the team was going to be all rainbows and roses when actually, while those things are included it's not always easy, and unfortunately it tends to stay on the tough side rather than fun I hate to say. Especially now if all times if I may say.
In short, joining the team is like opening your door thinking it's that delicious pizza you ordered when actually it's just a immature kid throwing a snowball into your face. You eventually get the pizza, but you will run into little trouble makers here and there.
More times than not you will run into unfair situations and undoubtedly you will be put under a lot of pressure by the people around you. Not by your fellow staffers but by the community you volunteer for. You will be mocked, ridiculed, stabbed in the back and targeted for no reason, by people you have never even interacted with personally just for the simple fact that you are now a trainee for staffing or are a full staff member. You will be deemed to be things that you are not simply by association. Now not all situations will be the same, but I am speaking from my heart and personal experiences from this place specifically.
Now I don't want to scare anyone off from staffing, however I do want others to be aware that you will run into these things one way or another no matter where you go, no matter what/who you staff for. Among the bad you will have the good. I have had countless good times and made so many memories while staffing. I love this game and it's community to pieces and I, again, do not regret one thing.
All in all, if you want to staff and are offered a position, I would take all of this into consideration. My best advice is, if you love this community, the game, want to encourage fun and provide a place for everyone to enjoy themselves, then go for it. In the end you may decide staffing is not for you but at the very least you can say you gave it a shot. Just always remember that it won't always be easy. Stay strong and you will pull through no matter the circumstances.
I can only hope that I have been able to be, to quote myself, the best mod I could possibly be for everyone~
Oddonelynx:
I'd accept it! The staff seems to be pretty low on members and I wouldn't mind being able to help out with the game!
