Well I have been around here for ages, just look at my join date: Joined: 12-July 08... coming up on 4 years now. I like this place, I like it even more when it is running smoothly.
Never been sanctioned before either if that matters when choosing someone, and I have a pretty nice grasp of the server and forum rules as well. I fluently speak English and I am in the process of learning French.
I am usually pretty active on the forums, logging in to check things when I have spare time between classes and when I get home from the university. That and I also have a decent eye for spotting off topic rubbish, or I would think so. I have never been a moderator on another website before, but I do co-admin the "Bureau of Supportive Criticism", a small group dedicated to artistic feedback on DeviantArt. It is not fancy, but it is some of the experience I have had running a small organization... this forum is significantly larger, and this would be my first time working on something this big.
That being said, this will be a new thing for me, but I am willing to give it a go.
