Now that I'm mostly awake, a quick question.

Are all forum mods going to be handpicked, or will the position be able to be applied for in the future?

Battons can give an official answer but as for what I think personally, since it's such a small team compared to discord and the game servers, I do not think it's an issue as long as it's someone a lot of people are familiar with and know can do the job efficiently. I know for me it wasn't a decision Battons made entirely by himself, he consulted other Admins too before making a final final decision as to whether to go through with it. So that helps eliminate some perceived bias as well. Considering I've had full access to the forums before, semi-did this forum moderating gig when it was absolutely necessary back when I was Admin, and overall was a former Admin I think I fit into both of those standards. But as for applications I wouldn't be opposed to them in the future if we did need more to give some community input in the matter but frankly I don't think we need enough people on this team to consider having applications. Between myself, Battons, and the server admins looking over their own sections (i.e comments on apps/unbans), I think it's very manageable with the small team we have. 

Generally speaking don’t blatantly rep farm

Uhhhhhh so gabe is gonna stop posting now?!?!?!? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

No more 5th rep place for you @Gabe

Unfortunately since @Laced Xanax 's return he has made it significantly harder for me to surpass Nicol for the #5 spot instead of Christian(I was 23 away!), so I will be patiently waiting to ban laced again to fix this issue and therefore the second reason for me accepting this offer. this is a joke
