Well does anybody know? Where do I sign up, because I also need a part time job.

McDonalds is hiring. Rumor has it that people will be quitting en-mass if they don't get 15 dollars an hour to flip those heavy hamburgers...

wouldn't that make you a Trod?  Not to be confused with the fish.. in any case I support your nomination 

Thanks for your support! And I like the name Trod. It's very recognizable.

I'm starting to think that I should start a campaign on the forums. Now... what should my campaign slogan be?

 

Wow... did u make that yourself? If you did, I appreciate you taking the time and effort to contribute to my campaign! However, I must say that the slogan would not be particularly appropriate! You see - I am not interested in the power granted to mods. I merely want to make life easier for the trolls on the forums, and give them a chance to shine, by not deleting their brilliant posts and threads that unfortunately often get deleted because some people are "offended" by them.

titled players are given a gold tint to their posts(probably to show their posts are better).so chess.com should give some kind of colour to posts by trolls.not everyone ,but some troll masters.so we can skip serious posts and can devote wholly to troll posts.

I adjusted a popular "Kneel before Zod" banner. It took somewhere in the region of 30 seconds. But, you're welcome :)

wouldn't that make you have to register as a Troll Offender or something?

A true troll can subvert anything in their path, no matter how seemingly wholesome and uncorruptible it is!

What?! That's like saying that having the titles of titled players in front of their names is making them register as a Chess Offender.

Quiz 1. You see "today's hot topics" are all "off topic", what do you do?

Wait... that isn't my final answer. My final answer is:

Post in all of them, but choose a few chess-related threads and spam in them, enough so that they become hot topics. That way there will be a nice mixture of chess-related and non chess-related topics on the "hot topics" page.

2nd question: No. You can only expand your views by listening to other people, not by only focusing on yourself.

So I passed right? With flying colors? I'll bet that no one in the history of mod application interviews has answered those two questions as well as I did.
