We have had a lot of people asking to be made a MOD. From our experience people who ask to be given priveledges ususally aren't the type of people who should have them. So if you have an interest in being a moderator your best chance to become one is not to ask to be one! Also be a model poster, act mature, help point out problems to the current mods if they seem to have over looked something (but don't be pesty about it), etc.
