    Not? I consider that you are one of the few people here who can be talked to. You know, like some regulars here, where you can argue and explain and it's like talking to a brick wall. But not with you.

    Hello doctors! This is getting a little off topic, so let's, y'know, keep it on topic.
    Okay on a serious note: I hope you guys are really careful choosing new mods, i appreciate the fact that we are allowed to speak like we currently do, ive seen enough game communities with wannabe-tyrants as Devs and Mods.

    Not saying you're incompetent btw.
    Them's just the rules. That's not going to change. Any new mods will enforce the rules the same way we have been.

    @not_Queen or @Peanits, where can I apply?
    You guys clearly need help. 
    I volunteer and I'm sure I'm not the only one.

    Marry me

    Uhm... what?

    you lucky dog

    I guess...

    Still don't know why or what.

    If you're not going to marry Ericka. You can marry me  ;)

    I could weight 250kg, have a neckbeard, and long pink hair. Does nobody care about my looks?

    Nah I just enjoy flirting with people online, mainly because I suck at it in person.

    Speaking of that @ChesterTheMolester where is my molesting

    I wish i had the time but im busy casting the new moderators.

    Is it wrong that I know what this is from having seen it several years back?

    We are going to open more Moderator position SoonTM!
    There are a lot of changes incoming in the Community team and adding more Mods is part of it!

    Stay tuned! (it will be announced on the forums!)

    Thanks for the update on that.

    I've been super sick since my last post so I never got the chance to be serious about the topic and you beat me to it.

    But what I'd been intending to say was that all kidding aside if any of us become mods then we'd have to stop insulting anyone. We'd also have to not post meme's, gifs or anything else we enjoy doing because we'd be representing BHVR.

    As a former site admin across multiple sites and moderator on countless others I understand that completely. I do have to admit that it's been nice to be able to relax these last few years and trash talk with people. But I guess I've got to start being responsible again if I want to help make this place better.

    So in the future there'll be no more of these types of things below ( hopefully hehe)

    On a more serious note I'm also deleting all my gifs and memes I've used on here since that way I'm not tempted to use them. Ok I can't resist one last attempt at sarcasm here so INCOMING !!!!

    If I don't get to be a mod then let the sarcastic posting continue !!!!!

    I would be a Moderator. A killer and survivor player, I've sunk hundreds of hours (even thousands, PS4 doesn't tell you) and as mentioned I am a PS4 player, so it'd be someone who is able to look into the PS4 DBD communities and see their opinion too. I have lots of time on my hands so I'd be available for the majority of problems. Though I doubt I'd be of any use since I only speak English. And my references in terms of online moderation is severely lacking XD

    I only speak English as well (not counting the five French words I remember from school). Back when I got into this, I didn't have any experience either. Then before I knew it I ended up as a mod for Dead by Daylight and PAYDAY 2. So never say never. <--- That's my favourite Justin Bieber movie.

    I would be tempted to say that more than anything, attitude is what makes or breaks it. Experience can help, but the way you act helps way more.

    The way I act? Well, I'd certainly change. Though I think change would certainly be necessary, given how much sass I've given to some, especially Lowbei. But I've had a but of an epiphany as of late, and am changing as a result. If I was contacted by someone at Behaviour to moderate the forums I'd be overjoyed if I'm honest. And this isn't something I'd want payment for (to be honest I think people here believe Moderators do receive payment) because DBD had tugged at my heartstrings and become something special. Plus... Happiness is payment enough for me.

    Good. I'm still up to do it. It's currently 5:14 AM in the UK, so I can definitely stick around long enough to moderate XD.

    People need to realize just because you’re a mod, doesn’t mean you have to be this super courteous and never sassy person. You’re still a person. Only mods I ever had trouble with was the Steam Forums I kept pissing off this Russian Survivor player who was bias as hell and wanted to be the next OchiDO. Unfortunately his friend was a mod on the Russian sub forum and banned me twice for making him look like a fool. 

    I dont treat the mods here or anywhere any different than I would anyone else. What’s a bannable offense to anyone else is a bannable offense to a mod, and what’s not a bannable offense to anyone else is not to a mod as well. 

    I’ve had quite a few arguments with Peanits on both Steam and here, and I think one on Steam with you as well Ryuti. You’re great people. :)

    Probably but knowing him he'd let himself out just so he can throw himself behind bars again. Then he'd simply rinse and repeat it for amusement sake.

    Isn't kind of unusual to have regular forum posters as mods on an official forum? Obviously it's just asking for bias and what not.

    IDGAF about this forum just sayin is all. In my experience official forums hire actual professional type people to be mods.

    Not really. I had no moderating experience prior to getting hired. I was just a normal player that's been playing since beta, and was active in the community, both on Twitch and on the Steam forums.

    All the mods that were chosen were people who just loved the game and wanted to help out in the community. Having experience is definitely a huge plus though.

    This is true and most places actually get people who're involved in the community to be volunteer mods. The ones they hire like @not_Queen are given much more power and responsibility.

    Indeed. The interest in becoming a mod died quickly. Strange...
