To become a mod on this forum. I thought it would be great, but once I compared my activity to some of the heavier users and mods and I realized that I wouldn't be able to commit to such a task, also, I know that I would abuse the power. I think even under the old rules, not enough bans were handed out. I'm not sure that I am capable of objectively moderating either.
Anyone else have realizations similar to this over the years and/or gained appreciation for the moderators we have now?

I used to be a moderator for a website. I think I ended with beyond -66,000 popularity there. I'm very strict with my adherence to the rules. I wouldn't mind if I magically became a ninja here, but I'd get pissed off for having essentially no authority to actually moderate while holding the title. And even if I did, I certainly wouldn't be liked. All that being said, I tend to avoid ninjas and Bungie employees (they deal with enough people), so there'd be no way to suck up for the position. Speaking of, hi [redacted for niceties]!
