[Link](Mouse over link to see full location) is the link to the moderator FAQ.

It will explain everything there.
A brief explanation is that there are 4 levels of moderators.
Level 4 - the owner of the website. You have a less than one percent chance of ever becoming a level 4. (I would say never, but you truly never know). We never used to have a level 4. It used to be level 3 was the owner and those who the owner knew really well.. I always thought outside the site. We have a new site owner though, so it's a tad different. Currently, the only 2 level three mods is DW who is the wife of the owner, and Fern who has been around for as long as the site has been around (to my knowledge anyway). Again, you have a less than 1% chance of ever becoming a level 3 mod.

The L2's are carefully picked by DN and (ususally) after other L2's give opinions. Or at least that's how it was. I'm not sure the last time we got a new L2. I am an L2, currently there are only 6 of us. As far as I know, DN has picked who he wants and just has not promoted them yet. (That, or the moderator list page isn't updated).

Then there are L1's. All they need to do is meet certain qualifications and they're in. It's an automatic thing for them. To become an L1 go to this link [Link](Mouse over link to see full location) and it will either make you one, tell you that you are one and give you your rank, or explain what else you need to become one.

As per what they do. L4 runs and owns the site
L3 helps L4's run and own the site.
L2's help to keep the site running smoothly. They have the ability to ban, warn, and check accounts of those who are misusing the site. We help discuss ways to make the site better and such. We approve questions or delete them depending on whether or not they are appropriate for the site, etc.
L1's are able to rate questions a 1-3 depending on how good they feel a question is. (For more info, see the Mod FAQ linked to above). They are also able to participate in a moderator discussion that discusses site issues and are able to give any feedback and/or ideas of things that will help the site. (Anyone can do this through the "make suggestions" link on the side of the webpage).

For more information, details, or specific questions, AFTER READING THE FAQ/MOD FAQ, feel free to ask any moderators (especially those L2 and up).

You can view an entire list of moderators, their ranking, and minimal details on how they help the site here. [Link](Mouse over link to see full location)

Any more questions, feel free to ask. =]

There are basically 3 levels. Level I, all you have to do is go to the site.

[Link](Mouse over link to see full location)

That will give you directions & there is a specific criteria that you need, but it is all listed there. For a level I moderator, you answer & rate questions. More information is found in the moderator FAQ section. To become a level II moderator, there has to be open spots for them. There's only a select few at a time so no one can just ask to be one. The other higher level moderators need to be looking for them. If they are, you also need certain critera. Good rating, good advice, update your column frequently, rate a ton of questions, etc. For level II, you rate questions & answer, but you have more responsibility & can decide what questions should be there & which ones shouldn't. Then there's level III. Level III is a big responsibility & only a few do it. They basically help run the site. If you need any extra information, I would suggest asking DangerNerd or another higher level moderator. You can check out the moderator list in the FAQ section.

-hope that helped!♥
