It is the darkest of rituals, not meant for man to know. (What happens to the live rabbit is just cruel.) Some say the words of the chant were found inscribed in a cave in black ash in a language not made for human tongues. Sometimes at night you can hear the screaming up on the moor as the wind rakes through the forests. You know then that another victim is being ... moderated.

One day you are walking along the street. You detect a whiff of ether and wake up with an electric collar on and chained to a sub-forum.

Moderators aren't chosen. They simply exist wherever a forum is made. Like wights for the internet. Except the punishment for failing to please a mod with your sacrificial offerings is far more severe.

I must've sent Mac a couple hundred gift baskets, from muffins to chocolates to cheese and crackers to sex toys.

I know how NOT to become a moderator, if you ever need to know.

It's kind of like a cross between Rush Week and getting jumped into a street gang. With bonus jackboots.

Not where you last saw me.

As do I. The key to success, if I may be so bold, is to exert yourself from day one toward making sure the thought never enters Mac's mind.

Keep your voices down unless you want Mac to reinstate the draft.

Exactly. shhh

Keeping your head down, misbehaving now and then despite trying to help out whenever and wherever possible, and thoroughly pissing Mac and one or three other Mods off periodically seems to work rather well at making oneself Mod-material-resistant.

Oh! An in-thread temper tantrum once in awhile works wonders too.

It's all in the DNA. Mac has fine guidelines and very stringent tests. :roll:
