How does one become a mod?

THIS IS NOT ME WANTING TO BE A MOD--- READ BELOW

I was just curious on how one becomes a mod? Just for the sake of curiosity. I've been on sites and forums where it all works differently and I never did know how GBAtemp works.

I've been to sites where you apply for it. I've also been to sites where the staff discusses it behind closed doors. I've also been to ones where a person is chosen randomly by basically drawing names from a hat.

Again, not trying to make this sound like I want to be a mod, I was just curious for discussions sake.

So basically, from what I gathered on this site... don't post like Monkat and that will boost your chances a lot?

But I liked Monkat. He may have been an egotistical maniac, but he was our egotistical maniac.

EDIT: Pretty much what p1ng said. Hit the nail on the proverbial head.

There are exactly two people in this thread that I would strongly consider for mod duty. Isn't that neat?

Actually yeah. It's good to know that even in the small amount of time that this was posted, we already have two people who love GBAtemp enough that they'd be good candidates.

I have to add that after being asked to be a mod, you get an airplane ticket for China sent to your house.

After you get there, someone at the airport will place a black sack on your head, and lead you to a secret place.

There are all of us mods who will decide if you're fit for staff position or not.

NAKED.

Sounds like just another good time to me.
Is there free food involved?

Well, mainly vegetables.

Which you don't end up eating.

Peppers are a vegetable right?

As per mthr's teaser trailer, I think I can accurately guess at least one of these possible candidates.

Or he's being a dick and it's just Vulpes and p1ng.

Tell mthr, I'm not interested.
