Since the mass moderators resignation last January David♦ and iKlsR♦ relinquished their duties, leaving us currently with only two active moderators, Gandalf and Duarte.
With the constant efforts of the community and tireless help from a bunch of very active users we have managed to keep the site barely in working order, but other that handling flags and doing regular basic maintenance work, that leaves us with little time and energy for much more.
We decided to have a moderator election in the near future, and would love to scan for potential candidates. To avoid finding ourselves in a situation where no one would apply or candidates would be unaware of the event, we are campaigning in anticipation of the actual election, as "publicity" for the actual application phase.
Many people are reluctant about the role but it need not be a a lot of work, nor an arduous task, in fact most of the tasks you already take on as regular users are the same as those of moderators, which helps lift the burden of actual official ones.
There are a few regular users of this site that know the community well, the ins-and-outs of this site, and would definitely make a very fine upcoming moderators. We would definitely love having them as colleagues in this task.
If you are interested or available to becoming one please post an answer below or leave a comment. We'd love to hear from all.
