Why* you would be a good Moderator: I'm a mature individual who has been on these boards for quite some time now. I am a regular here, online nearly every day, and probably well known by all.

Moderator Experience? Straight up- None, I'm afraid.
Why would I be a good Moderator? I'm pretty new to this forum, but I've generally been considered a positive/helpful member on other forums. I may not post that much, but I'm constantly checking out posts from all over the BFHeroes forums, and throwing in my feedback if it's appropriate.

While I'd love to help out, I understand if you don't pick me. However, please choose people who can type well.

i dont want mods who mispell and dont like 2 use puntuation and capitols

Moderator Experience: During school I moderated 'CForum', a forum dedicated to our chapel and christian ministries.
Why you would be a good Moderator: I'm friendly, good with words, and dedicated to BFHeroes.org. I understand the rules and what to do if they are broken, as well as being able to conduct meaningful and interesting conversations. I'm on here often, as this is the only forum I use, and will be for a long time yet, as friends have been made (Mr_JimWest - awesome) and a community has been built. I hope to help as much as I can!

Age: 15 (Turning 16 in June)
Location: Silicon Valley, CA, USA
Moderator Experience: Have setup and ran clan forums, and setting up gaming community. And countless other sites and forums.
What you would be a good Moderator: I have the experience that you are looking for, I am a fairly active member of the forum. I am probably one of the most mature people you will ever meet/ get to know. And one major plus is that I right normally, and with good grammar (most of the time). One more plus is that I get my news from the source so I can usually post news ASAP before anyone else, if the moderator job entitles that.

Moderator Experience
I'm the host and webmaster of a Battlefield 1942 server. The website has a forum which I'm the main administrator in, this means I have good knowledge on how stuff runs. As I'm also a web developer which means I can help out on the site if I'm allowed to.

Why you would be a good Moderator
I have the experience of forum moderating. I know what needs to be done, and I have the needed time available to spend on this forum. I'm also good at contributing information and helping members which makes me suited for being a moderator.

Age: 17
Location: Alkmaar, The Netherlands.
Moderator Experience: I was moderator for www.hardmethod.org and an admin so i know how to deal with situations and to be neutral in my judgements.
What you would be a good Moderator: Like i said im always neutral and I can give good judgements if you want me to decide besides that i was an admin for clanbase.com which you always have to do the write thing, i have done that for 8 months and really looking forward to be important in this bfh scene.

Age: 36

Location: upstate New York

Moderator Experience: I manage several intranet forums and blogs for the Fortune 100 company I work for. I also have managed several clan website forums covering the Battlefield series and other popular games. Extensive experience with vBulletin.

Why I would be a good moderator: Even-handed, mature individual with close to 10 years managing both external (game related) and internal (work related) forums. I very much enjoy playing the Battlefield series and look forward to accelerating the new business model associated with Battlefield Heroes. Being a moderator on one of the most popular BFHeroes sites would be my way of contributing to EA's/DICE successes.

Thank you for your consideration.

Age: 19

Location: Bristol, UK.

Moderator Experience: I have run a number of forum boards for a number of years now, most notably that for the Alliance Navy combat group on the Second Life metaverse. I have also designed art for forum templates to be used via the PHPBB platform.

What you would be a good Moderator: I have plenty of spare time on my hands to provide dilligent observation of the actions on the board. I am epathetic by nature, and will go to great lengths to provide assistance to anyone that needs it (regardless of any personal inconvenience that I may suffer in the process). While I have not been active as much as others on this board, I feel that each of my replies have served to give an informative, educated response or suggestion without exception.

Alongside my experience as a moderator and administrator, I am also a keen games enthusiast, about to undertake a degree course in Computer Games Design in September. This gives me a valuable outlook on various problems fielded by others, as I often seek a solution no matter what the query, rather than settling for consolation. Above all, I have a huge interest in the game and would love to be able to lend my hand in assisting those with problems both common and diverse.

PS: Although I am hesitant to crow about it, I feel that my... considerable flair with the English language will allow me to address all replies clearly and concisely, while using my (somewhat limited, to tell the truth) grasp of foreign languages to cater for those that may not be so well versed elsewhere.

Hey guys!

Just a quick update for you all. I deleted all the posts that aren't profiles just for the sake of keeping on topic, nothing personal. Doing great so far. Even if you think you haven't been here long enough, don't post enough, are too young, please still post your profile. We would love to consider you.

Continue on, and best of luck!

Moderator Experience: I owned and operated my own website for 5 years, we were (before Hurricane Katrina) in the top 100k websites in the world (so sez alexa: http://www.alexa.com/data/details/traffic_details/bleacheatingfreaks.com?site0=bleacheatingfreaks.com&y=r&z=0&h=300&w=610&c=1&u%5B%5D=bleacheatingfreaks.com&x=2008-05-13T14%3A17%3A10.000Z&check=www.alexa.com&signature=xMbXYR7Q3Ndx57NHtE%2FE2dZld%2B0%3D&range=max&size=Medium). I've been looking for a new home
What you would be a good Moderator: Well, firstly I'm not grammar freak, otherwise the wording of that last question would have killed me!
Basically, I've got a lot of experience with websites. I'm a web developer by trade, and a gamer by night. I can help spot XSS and SQL injection vulns, and usually bring some off-beat and unique fun to the forum.

I'm also fluent in lolcat, and l33t speak.

Age: 15
Location: Pennsylvania, USA
Moderator Experience: I Have Moderated Countless Proboard Accounts, and also invisionfree, obviously this isnt either
but this seems as simple, i've moderated for my clan, and also for well known gameing clans (Gamesurge etc.)

What you would be a good Moderator: I'm not saying im better then any of these other people applying, because all of them are great heroes,
but I can mod and have fun about it, well im not gonna be power hungry as soon as i get a silly name that says moderator [if im chosen].
I'll do my job as such and still be a regular member of BFHeroes, having fun and posting and showing everyone a good time.
I Think thats what makes a good mod, someone who is still fun but they have a new job, keep the forums safe and clean. I'm very active (and homeschooled so im technically on 24/7)

In The Day Time, Im Just a Normal Gamer, but at night i become DJ-BACON Moderator of the BFHeroes Forums! <--and id be able to say that!

Age: 18 years old.

Location: Sweden.

Moderator Experience: None, but I would like to try it out, you have to start somewhere.

What you would be a good Moderator: I have a good sense of humor, but also I see the serious part of things, a joke is a joke, and we all know that, but what I'll take care of is the aftermath, the consequences. I'm always fair no matter what, I think it's important that a mod. is neutral between his friends and his part of forum, so he don't admit all the things his friends say.

Age: 16
