The job does come with this nifty teeshirt. But Baldrick never explained what it says .
Probably something in Swedish like you are a important person.

Run that through google translate and you'll get a laugh.

The key is to pick good, educated, STABLE moderators. Don't just stick some fool up as moderator just because he knows a lot about the technical things. Sometimes, savantes in one area fail miserably in others. For example, a moderator that knows a lot about the subject but simply cannot pick bad content from good. Let's face it, many mods have severe narcissistic tendencies and use the mods function to merely satisfy their insecurities about their own self-importance.

Moderating should not be limited to droids with manuals. Yeah, it's hard to pick the stable ones, but it's worth it I'd think.
