This reply isn't directed specifically at anyone...it's just what I think. I think being a mod has to do with a lot more than being nice. Being nice is a GREAT start, but it'll get you halfway if that. You have to be strong. That's how mods become "memorable" or "successful". You have to be open to critiscism at all times, and not feel the need to lash out or complain. You need to be able to look at it, accept it, think about it, apply it and move on. You might even have to compromise part of your natural personality, because you're working with a group for a group. i agree a 100 percent,with the bolded portion. even though ive never had a mod position before. *sigh here i go again with the chef to mod comparisons* i find that being a mod is alot like being a head chef you always have someone who will feel that you are not fit to be where your at. you will have that person who feels your not good enough to be where your at. you have to take that criticism and if its criticism thats worth listening to think about how you can apply your self to be better. at times as she stated you have to sometimes "compromise part of your natural personality, because you're working with a group for a group". same way in culinary arts. if you cant do that being that "head chef" you have to work with people,be open to peoples styles and opinions,and sometimes put your foot down when theres something you dont like or dont agree with. its all about leadership and strength with a pinch of kindness. ![]() [EDIT]and if it really irritates people that i use the comparison of culinary arts to being a mod and feels that the two have no correlation. one,i beg to differ in some ways they are the same. and 2 i have a passion for my line of work as i would for the position i applied for. my passion for cooking is something that some may not understand beacuse either they think its dumb or they just dont understand. ok now you can rag on me. ![]() |
