Requirements

All moderators should meet at least four of the following requirements-

.Patient, and capable of elegantly diffusing tension.

.Possesses maturity, and should not engage in immature behavior (ie. no drama-queening)

.Trust-worthy, encouraging, and supportive.

.Promotes a happy, friendly, co-operative atmosphere.

.Has no previous history of campaigning to be a moderator (as a rule of thumb, if you need to convince people you'd make a good moderator, instead of being good mod material without effort, you should not be a moderator.)
