whats the dsm iv criteria for a moderator?

[jacinta]

Naturally, didn't ready the irrelevant bits like forum guide, new members etc before posting and already I'm a junior member! What does it take to go all the way to the top? seriously, how do you rank postees. Also who started ADD forums?

LOL...and a good sence of humour... oh, and the ability to totally forget who yells at you..I'm certainly good at that...not that anyone yells at me... ..but if you all yell at me, I'll forget soon enough...

oh, and broadband connection is good...LOL..

I've done it several times over several years, but not here (although I am no longer averse to that idea). You become a moderator by being asked by administration. Its really as simple as that, although RWindsor has done an excellent job at explaining how one gets noticed by staff as a potential moderator.

pleasantly insane. . . . . . .

The title changes under your name are simply due to how many posts you've made. The exception being very high posters have a right to chose their own title. Moderators are asked to be moderators by administration. When I was a moderator they told me it had to due with total time spent on line daily at ADD Forums and whether your posts indicated you'd do a good job keeping the peace (paraphrasing -- my words not their exact words).

I really liked rwindsors description! A lot of truth in that!

Thanx. The moderators are obviously dedicated. I'm very careful about the lack of inhibition. I tend to only do it with my partner (NOT LIKE THAT!) at 10 pm at night when I'm raving on about pineal glands, pyramids and phi...Having the strong desire not to sleep comes naturally..If only others weren't out of kilter with my sleep patterns.

Talking about sleep, found a cool site on the net (where else do you find sites) last night 'www.causeof.org' (the cause of internet and tv addictions) which has info about melatonin, 5-HTP and so much more.

Maybe you wanna post your link in another forum so that others who may not post in this thread can have a look maybe the links section or adult ADD?

Hey, crazyfeet, is this easy or does it require some exertion, to which I am currently immune..having exhausted my mind last night discovering that I really DO understand PHI.

Is what easy? I am afraid I don't understand what you are asking me?

Hi jacinta,

don't forget to check out the "How do I??START HERE!" thread at the top of Forums
Q & A. Your post count question is in there, so maybe some of the others (well, except the PHI thing) will be in there.

Have fun around here! You sound like someone who'd love chit chat.

[jacinta]

Crazyfeet, is posting the link in another forum easy? do I just post my question again and does the rest follow or what? sorry, sometimes i find it easier to ask than to look?

[EYEFORGOT]

No your whole thread here or post won't follow. You'd have to start a new post or thread in a section and put it there.
