Default VGI substitute moderator program

Hello, I'm starting a new program. It's essentially what I've been doing for a while, only now it's more "official".

Here is how it works.

1. There will be a list of approved "substitute moderators".

2. Any co owner may make any approved substitute moderators a moderator only while they are watching. That means if you are an owner, you can make someone on the substitute moderator list a moderator while you're watching, then as soon as you can no longer watch (IE you have to go to sleep), you de-mod them.

3. If a substitute moderator abuses power/break rules, the person who made them a moderator will be held responsible. If you don't like this, don't mod anyone.

4. If a substitute does well, they may be made full time mods.

If you are interested in becoming a moderator on the VGI chat, fill out this application, and send your application in a PM over the forums to me. You may PM me here. Don't apply in this thread.
Read the whole application, or don't apply
Quote:
Hello, below there are a few questions that you may fill out. Filling out the questions are optional, but whether or not you do will greatly effect your chances of becoming a moderator.

If you choose to apply, and your application is successful, you will be put onto a que, and may or may not be selected for moderatorship the next time this chat is in need of moderators.

You should be a Member on Video-game-info for at least one week. two months.

You should be at least 13 years of age.

You must not be banned.

You should include why you feel you would make a good Moderator.

You should include why you want to be a Moderator.

You should read all the Rules, and Moderator guidelines.

You should be a generally nice person, and help other users of video-game-info when possible.

You should include what you have contributed to Video-game-info, or what you plan to contribute.

You should not have applied within the past week.

You should include the word “jovial”. (This is designed to filter out people who didn’t bother reading the requirements.)

You should have an account on www.videogameinfo.net/forums/

You should include what your time zone is, and what time you're generally on the chat.

You should include your Xat ID number, and your forums account name.

You should use good grammar in your application, and fully spell out words.
Current substitute moderators: Jamesssss (130642545), Demetriusx (64301728) LordTahimaka (106559078), indiman123 (14430560), CKWxJMGCaaf (77859094), iDontHack (47754619), DigitTerminaL (88228215) Reggie (209999990), iamSnowyy4TL (207805965), Danny (75753050), iEmp (83538908)

People who are not substitute moderators: ACKirbachi (149555627), Ant 82552110, Franky (Many IDs), Seth (59228296), Ex3poke (73829949),

Example of a good application :
Quote:
To phsycical and to whomever it may concern: you may know me as Derrick Shmoe, and I'm eighteen years old. I have been participating in video-game-info forums and chat for numerous months. I pleased to be able to report that on no account have I been, banned, or kicked.

I am of the belief that I would serve as a good moderator, and be a valuable asset to this site, this is attributed to some of the following factors. 1. I tend to visit video game info during 3:00 AM, to 11:00 AM, Eastern Standard Time. This is important seeing as that there tend to be far fewer moderators around this time, I frequently find there are no other moderators online at all. If I were a moderator, the rules of the chat would be enforced even during these "off-times" when the majority of VGI's moderation staff is asleep. 2. While I do generally am opposed to needless boasting, I do feel it's important to point out that I have the ability to speak Spanish and Turkish; which are some of the most commonly used languages besides English. This would allow me to inform users who are unable to speak English to use the translator, or leave in a more lucid fashion than the current moderation staff.
3. Perhaps you could call me "old fashion", but I still take the rules seriously, I believe I would be able to enforce them well, and keep the chat an enjoyable place for everyone, as any moderator should.

Now, as to why I personally want to be a moderator. While I generally try to be nice, I won't lie, people who break rules anger me. What frustrates me more is the frequency that these people tend to do so while the other moderators are offline. My warnings, while helpful, are often ineffective to these users. I feel sometimes it is necessary to put my foot down, and prevent these users from further adversely effecting the enjoyment of other users of the chat. I think being a moderator would help me keep the chat a jovial place for not only me, but the other chatters to. That is why I would be happy to become a moderator here sometime in the future, thank you, and lets help to keep this chat jovial for everyone.
Example of a bad application
