How do I apply to become a forum moderator?

After realizing that I spend a fair amount of my day on the Dead by Daylight forums and that I can objectively understand the rules: "Don't spam posts or specifically insult another user with irrelevant nonsense (Insults such as: "Your mom, excessive profanity, etc.")."

Due to these two facts, I was wondering where I might apply to offer my help to keep the spam and insults to a minimum. To restate the title: What do I need to do to become a forum moderator?

    Not_Queen mentioned there would be a post in the upcoming months a few weeks/month ago for applications. A few other mods even mentioned you don't necessarily need experience as long as you meet the other standards and what not.
    Just need to wait patiently and then hope to get picked (and quickly destroy all those dang spambots :lol: )

    I hope you actually become a mod. You seem reasonable and in the middle. You, @powerbats and @Sally55 would be the only active users that wouldn't let power go to their head. GOOD LUCK!

    I mean, I was awake during the Asian spam and I would've cleaned that up if I could.

    How do we demote current mods? xD

    You delete your forum account, that way you never see them posting again. 😜

    I wouldnt mind being a mod. I spend tons of times on the forums and everyone here seems like a decent person so banning wouldnt happen often. Also I hate all of those spam posts, I wish I could take them down but all I can do is report lol.
