I personally wanted to volunteer my services as a mod because, as I mentioned before, I have a good understanding of fair play, I know how to listen to both sides of a liberal/conservative argument, I wouldn't abuse my mod powers, and I've been offered the position before (although the offer was retracted because the argument was made that no mods were needed). That's not to detract from anyone else's suitability to mod this forum at all. I just think I would be a good choice - not the only good choice, but a good choice nonetheless. I simply want to help and I think this is a good way for me to contribute to, if nothing else, maintaining a peaceable atmosphere to the best of my ability, which several of you can probably vouch for.
