Question

I love openstudy but I wanna be a moderator js

Answer 1

It takes a long time to become a moderator. I think you have to be at least 18 to be one too, which kinda stinks because there are a lot of smart people on here under 18 that should be moderators.

Answer 2

ikr I've been wanting to be a moderator 4ever now and im doing the best I can to become one I asked this moderator and she said u gotta be nice report users who don't fallow the rules and help ppl and that's what I've been doing I want to become one so bad but its so hard to become one yyy

Answer 3

You only report users when they aren't following the rules or aren't following the code of conduct.

Be nice to everyone, even if they are rude to you. Make sure to have patience and help them, no matter how long it takes.

You must follow the rules and the code of conduct too.

Answer 4

ik I have been doing all of those y is so hard to become an awesome moderator

Answer 5

Because it takes a lot of time and hard work to become a moderator.

You have to know a lot of stuff. You have to use the proper grammar, give proper information, help students learn, etc.

Answer 6

It's not so much about the age, it's more of the maturity, or from what I've heard.
And @Liv1234 gave quite a few of the main points, but you also have to win the respect of the community, and you have to have a good sense of justice.

I guess why it's so hard to become a Moderator so that not just anyone can become one.

Answer 7

Thank you for explaining it like that. @YoungStudier I also forgot to mention that point where you gain the respect of the community.

Answer 8

If I'm not mistaken, I believe you also have to become an Ambassador before you become a Moderator as well.

Answer 9

Answer 10

And @YoungStudier I agree!

Answer 12

Answer 13

Answer 14

You're welcome.

Answer 15

Another thing that I believe helps is having more fans, but I'm not 100% sure on that.

Answer 16

How to become a Moderator:

First rule: You must be 18+, due to legal issues.

Second rule: You have to be, and act mature.

Then you have to win the respect of this community through interaction, knowledge and the ability to interact and intervene in an appropriate manner. It is in big part based on participation, courtesy and respect.

The most important thing is that you let the administrators and moderators know that you can see things going awry, and that you are willing to make some effort to solve/prevent it.
And certainly NOT in a way like messaging them about how bad you want to be a moderator (this will only work contradictory), but they have to notice that you are up for the job.

Then, when they decide they need more moderators, you might get asked.

◘ Being on the site for a fair amount of time. (usually more than 6 months)
◘ Be an good and active user on the site
◘ Having a squeaky clean abuse record.
◘ Have good rapport with fellow users.
◘ Having a good sense of justice.
◘ Being an expert in some field.
Most of the mods are math geniuses. But any subject would suffice.
◘ Doing a great job in the ambassador program.
In the ambassador training period, you'll learn how the rules work on OpenStudy and you'll learn how to make the right decisions.
◘ Hope you'll get lucky when they decide to add more moderators!
