I love how involved you are in the community outside of HQ.
It makes you seem more like a regular member. If I were to ever get in a sticky situation or need advice I think, for that reason, you'd be the moderator I'd feel most comfortable contacting.

Matty, Celestial and I came in December 2011.

Patrick was added in early 2011 by himself (making the total 10)
-----
Then Red, orange, Vato, and Kworb were all brought back as mods in the summer of 2011 (JGib was dropped due to inactivity; Athens and JDM were promoted to Admins; total mods = 11
-----
I can't remember when Eli was added, but he made 12 and then we added y'all Mod Class (Lee!!, Katie, Lipton, and Billie Joe). faint_lpc stepped down, I can't remember when along with Reeces as well). Celestial stepped down once before being brought back for your hiring class.
....My brain hurts now.  |
How about Phoenetic?

I remember all that history. The only member I don't recall seeing as a mod is Master Shake. I mean, I knew he was one but I didn't know until when.
I also remember when TC stepped down.

It's how I imagine opening a college application would be like, but then it's just something like "COME JOIN THE 3857947TH ROUND OF ______".

He entered along with freaksgeeks if I'm not mistaken not a long time ago.

I believe he came after Eli, because I remember seeing him become a mod while I was banned for the last half of 2012...
I think that specific ban, or at least the cause of it, probably put a huge dent in my possibility of being a mod, so that had me really scared.

Thanks! I do feel more like a regular member than someone with much standing here.  Of course I'm a lot more involved with my fellow moderators now and have grown to be a part of that group specifically, but I'm so active it really just feels like a new (if significant) aspect of a larger overall ATRL experience.

I cried and ran around my house when I opened my college acceptance letter.
This would't be any different.

Well I'm almost positive I didn't get it, but I'm nervous nonetheless.

Are all mods picked from a pool of applicants or are some approached?

He came after we in the base talked who among us were deserving to be a mod, then most of us went for Phoenetic(LInkinLovatix that time). I don't know if ATRL heard us but not long after, he became a mod. Maybe they needed a mod for the Demi fan base since each one was reporting one another in the base.

He came with the hiring class of Fall 2012 with freaksgeeks (who was removed the following year due to inactivity).

I think they are only picked from the applicants. If some mods are approached, they are approached and asked to apply, because they use the applications to decide.

I'll make an attempt at the history of the moderators from late 2010 to present later on.

Well, as you might know from my group of mods, it's not always a large pool gathering like this. There are times when people are approached specifically.
Also guys, don't worry too much if you're not one of those picked. It doesn't mean we'll never consider you when we need people again!

Faint and JG weren't around for the deliberations for my class. I feel bad about forgetting Vato and Kworb.

Oooh that makes sense, I vivdly remember creeping around that time and the Demi base was a MESS of epic proportions and I always presumed he was approached because he was the least messy and it would calm down the riled up Lovatics
