    Is their a reason why some people are made moderators over others? Some notable members seem to be getting overlooked.

    Yes, I am sure there is a process by the admins and owners. It is not something you can ask to become (my impression). And as it is part of the site's personnel, so to speak, we do not need to know the steps involved with that or be part of that process.

    Being a moderator is like being a volunteer firefighter; you have to show courage in the face of danger, and do it for free.

    I heard that there is a rather rigid initiation process.

    Two psychology tests, five physical tests, obstacle courses, ... It's a tough selection. I lost two fingers and my ego in the process.

    I assume the simple word association section went rather... Unpleasant for both of them?

    Congratulations to both of you! Exemplary members, both.

    I shall take it upon myself to keep an eye on you. That is what Hitler missed. The power craze sneaks up on you. But no worries, I am here.

    The most important rule of the mod team, @WillyGalore, is "no Samuels".

    We're allowed to have one.

    Time to remove the Stone of Shame and attach the Stone of Triumph!

    I hope @Samuel001 and @Creasy47 have learnt the lyrics to the Moderators song...

    Dang Willy, you beat me to it. I was going to release the secret lyrics to the MI6 Moderators song.

    Who controls the Norwegian Crown?
    Who keeps Halle Berry down?
    We do. We do.

    Who keeps Isthmus off the maps?
    Who keeps Kevin McClory under wraps?
    We do. We do.

    Who holds back the AMC Hornet car?
    Who made Benico Del Toro a star?
    We do. We do.

    Who made Judy think of her sin?
    Who rigged Adele's Oscar win?
    We do. We do.

    But you made Steve Gutenberg a star, now didn't you? That's gotta count for (or against) something...

    At any rate, congratulations gentlemen!

    Many thanks, @Murdock! Again, I really appreciate it. :)

    I want to have one that everyone can get used to, but I've had an influx of so many good ones I don't know where to begin.
