To be fair, Mod are rare and the existing ones are probably doing something. GMs have the powers to do the Mod work and are entitled to do it, but it's possible that the existing Mod are useful if/when aren't there.
This is true. I know of only 3 mods(including myself):
(24818)(28800)Not even a mention in the BB-Staff ;) Honestly, I just noticed this thread, read through it and now have comments, but I am not conplaining. Im happy to be a Mod, whether I get free supporter or not. I have not had to do much, although I have only had it for a few days now. If we get free supporter thats great! If not, oh well, I will just keep modding :P
