Celticpride* and Sijih , congrats guys. Everyone else please treat them kindly, they are new to the forum please do not scare them off. They are startled by loud noises and pungent smells.

*EDIT: celticpride posted some transphobic shit which is rather unbecoming of any users, let alone moderators, so has been demodded.

I was told that people without badges were unable to gain the position of moderator unless a specific curcumstance.

Cowman definitely deserves it and im happy he got it in the first in place in case this message is misconstrued otherwise.

straight to mod is somewhat unusual, but def not unheard of, and yeah as celticpride said, particularly not for social forums.

I'm pretty sure monkfish was made a firebot moderator like a decade ago without previously having any badges.

for a while, the ladybug pre-contrib was almost synonymous with firemod bc it was kind of a forum workaround for powers, i think

this was way back when people were italicised and asterisked etc for roles, though

This was only the case for the initial batch of mods when the forum was opened, as to start it off with more experienced community members.
