Motive for Mod App? -- LiveWire Teen Forums

Hey Tavis.

I applied for a moderator position for a couple of reasons, but I'll try listing the most important and more rounded reasons. I'm majorly committed to this site. Not just the whole "WELL, I'll get on everyday just to get on" commitment, but a more sense of community. I feel that I can pull my weight and be supportive. At the same time, I feel I can accurately balance all the weight and pressure of being a moderator. Moderators have a lot of things to do, some might not have time to be as supportive as they once were, but I would consistently strive to better supporting livewire. I'm supportive now, as are all of you. I just feel that I can always up my game and continue to better myself not only in this area, but in other areas such as moderation.

I feel that most people can stand out. Yet, I feel that if given a chance, I could rise above all expectations that are given to me. I would consistently exceed not only my daily procedures, but try to exceed the other moderators, and general members. Whether this be through support, how I handle situations, etc.

I don't want it just because I think that it will be another thing to do. I would like the opportunity because I feel that I deserve the chance and that if faith were to be put in me, I wouldn't let anyone down. I love the central idea of a 'community' on LiveWire, and this would bring me closer to a mindset at being able to handle problems and situations which may occur among members, etc.

Being a moderation isn't just a big step up from a support leader, but it allows a lot of extra power to be handled among a selected individual. Sometimes people fear that a new moderator, or even current ones, would become power-obsessed and misuse their given powers. This wouldn't be the case, for me. It would be a new position, yes. I wouldn't misuse the power. I tend to not let those things get to my head.

I also want it because I feel I have a way of handling member situations differently than most. I try not to beat around the bush, or go to over the top. I'm always as supportive as can be, and never shy away from a topic or situation I know that I can answer. Each day I strive to help people, and this makes the world to me.

So, in overall, why do I feel I want a position? I feel I can handle it, not become overzealous, stay supportive (or even become increased supportive), manage my time sparingly, work together as a team to develop new ideas and solve current issues facing the livewire team, and most importantly I would appreciate this because it is an important decision. I am a trustworthy person, honest, and I will always be there for not only our members, but the crisis we may face.
