    I have a question to anyone that can answer, what is the minim age you can be to sign up as a moderator?

    I believe there is no minimum age, however, you must be mature.

    As I said before, age doesn't really matter. What matters is what you contribute to the forums and the community.

    As well as, you don't 'sign up' to become a moderator, TnT, or one of the other admins will come to you and offer you a position on the staff. Also noting grammar is a very vital role in being considered.

    A good start would be removing that ref link / advertisement from your signature. But as said above, age means nothing.

    I would disagree on that age means nothing. Age do mean something...
    For example a 9 year old would not be a good staff member. First of life experience and second of all maturity. Some people are more mature than others, of course there could be a 16 year old that is very mature for his age.

    But in most cases i would say that if a 14 year old is more or as mature as a 18 year old. Then that 18 year old is very unmature for his age.

    Age has a meaning, its not just a number and it often comes with knowledge and experience.

    My point being...age do matter and trying to hide the fact that age has no influence on behavior and experience is incorrect. But as always there is always some exceptions out there but they are VERY RARE i would say. But even if there is exceptions i would in general say that age do matter.

    But kids are kids and let them be kids, they are only a kid once :)

    That's my opinion and its based on wide experience

    Well, no one is perfect, but i think you are doing a great job as a moderator. As far as ive seen, you have been profesional in your approaches towards people on bukkit.

    But yes, if you are very young than you would be that exception. If bukkit is the first forum you joined in your life span, i would be surprised.

    This does not mean that your type of behavior would not change over time, cause when you are very young a lot with both body and mind is happening. So for what ever i know, you could have changed opinions and different ways of making decisions in the future. When you are older, you know your self better and have a better understanding over your self. That said, for now you are a great moderator, depending on your age that could change over time.

    Not saying that older people wont change, just saying that its less rare for older people to change as much as you do when you are just a teenanger. Also saying that some people that are 25 years old can be less mature than a 16 year old. But then again, its the 25 years old that are unmature. Tho thoose 25 years old does not fit as a moderator in my opinion.

    In the end, age do matter but i see no reason for not accepting people who are capable of doing it. I never said that it should be a age restriction.

    No, that is how creative he is by thinking and imagining that he hacked your account.
