1. I'm not applying to be a mod.  I'm not the one saying that if I was a mod, I'd be banning all the "fanboy trolls" who criticize VR. And what's been demonstrated in this thread and many others lately is that there are folks here who assume that if you don't like VR, then you MUST be a troll, because people who don't like VR simply cannot exist.  It's just do damn awesome.  THAT'S the kind of shit I don't want demonstrated from mods.  

2. That's not an airtight way to determine someone's VR experience.  Not even close.  I'm surprised you'd even suggest that.

1. Sure you can't consider everyone that doesn't like something or speak against it to be trolls... still if you can verify that someone is a fanboy trolling VR then he is moderable.

2. If someone is being very negative about a product they swear to own, asking for proof is valid, one of the easiest to check is their trophies.

1. Sure, there are common sense ways to detect trolling.  My point still stands though.  There are individuals here in this very thread who should never be mods. Individuals who are very very biased for the VR tech.  So much so that their fairness would be non-existent.

2. So what about the people who just play on Vive/Oculus?  What about those who tried their friend's headset?  Moderate people for acting like dicks.  Don't moderate them because they're critical of VR, whether they've even tried it or not.  Members with hurt feelings and yelling "troll fanboy" all the time is not a reason for moderation of people who are expressing their opinions.
