As you have probably already noticed two new mods have been promoted. These are all the mod staff changes I intend to make at this time. Congratulate our two new mods. I hope they will be of great service to the site.

To answer some questsions I have been getting via PM: I do not promote mods based on request. I pick the members who I feel are most suited for the position at the time based on time spent on the site, posting, timezone, and past moderations (i.e. if you have any you will not become a mod).

Aww man.

All I have is a sig length warning which was given because something changed on the site and my pictures dropped below each other and the other was a warning for trolling which was then later told was actually just off-topic and not trolling. Personally, I hate seeing the word "Trolling" in my profile. It bothers me.

I am so sad now.

 

Seriously though, congrats to both.

I thought Nordlead was a mod though. O.o

Refer to my sig sir.

More seriously, I'm going to bet that there's a lot more thought going into the decision than naz is letting on. I don't mean to imply anything sinister, of course, just that his criteria are actually higher than he's implying. I'm willing to bet that a moderator has to be someone who contributes to the site itself in a retty big way, not just someone who posts a lot in the forums, so that you've already proven your dedication to VGChartz above and beyond your personal connection to the community. That way you can ensure a degree of loyalty and even-handedness that you wouldn't get out of the average member, regardless of how clean their record is.

This is just a guess, of course.
