By not asking. ;)

From what I know they're volunteers who get "drafted" (some mod said they got drafted in some quote/thread somewhere).

Sounds like an oxymoron, a volunteer draftee.

I would have to agree, it is definitely not by asking.(not that you were) I would think it would be by being helpful, and a genuinely good all-around member.

But, if they are looking, i'll throw my hat in the ring. ;)

Also one learns how to fish instead of having one fish for you, how does one like talking about one's self in the 3rd person?

LOL a Drafted Volunteer.

That's different ;)

I'm not asking to be a mod, I'm just asking how it's attained.

Ok ok, fact is I'm neffing my arse off.

Might as well change my title from Elite Member to Elite Neffer ;)

I have a higher post/day than several of our top 10 guys.
I nef far to much :(

I try to be useful sometimes to though!

Ed:
Damn I didn't search in the Forum Issues.
And as I said, I was speaking in 3rd person, because I wasn't talking about myself in specific. Just a general question.

Now shut up Diamond boy ;)

I can tell. :D We have to stop being so damn complacent and just taking it.

And yes, I believe he is a Canadian.

I can't believe you would say such things on Canada Day Weekend. (sniff, sniff)

uh 1, and a 2 and 3 ... Oh Canada, ok I forgot the rest of the words but let's sing Oh Canada.

Did you guys see that &quot;That 70's Show&quot; episode where they all get caught at the border?

Hehehehe I actually quite like Canada. But I think my long term job prospects are better south of the border.

We'll see, if I find a good job when I grad I'll stay here.

I dunno my specialty yet, I'm in computer science. I like software design the most though I think.

Information Security is also an intersting field, but I don't think I'd want to work in it long-term.

Bah, Canada's got a good national anthem. ;)

They actually have one of those? Cool! Does Canada have any sort of major national holiday observed as the biggest national holiday for Canada only? Or is that the one you were talking about?

Probably anywhere in California, Eugene/Portland/Beaverton, Oregon or Washington (stay far far away from Kent though) should be just fine.

If you decide to relocate to the Pacific NorthWest (near Portland) you, me, FFMCobalt, and Viper GTS should all go out to a ..... bar one night.

Ross: I'm kinda sick of all the flag-waving I have seen this weekend actually. :D And I guess I missed that episode... was it good? I always get a good laugh out of Canadian stereotypes.

Noriaki: You should check out my hometown, Kitchener-Waterloo. We have a TON of comp-sci type companies out here. And they generally pay pretty well. You might have a problem matching the U.S.' income tax levels though.

FFM: We most certainly do! It's called Canada Day (duh) and it officially falls on July 1. Think of it as our version of the 4th of July. It's quite a day, it's generally when we carve out a new igloo for the year! (the whale blubber starts to stink after a while.) :D

ROFLMAO! Yes Canada Day (July 1st) is equivilant to July 4th down south.

Wow, FFMCobalt, Viper GTS and RossMan all live in Portland.

Mental Note: Never move anywhere near Portland ;)

Actually I quit like Portland, I was there for a party once with some friends, and we stopped by one on our way to LA and did a little bar hopping.

I don't live in Portland, but it's only a 30 minute drive or so. Straight shot in on HW 26.

N8Magic - It's funny how Canadians have that Igloo stereotype but whenever I think of Igloo's I think of Alaska, not Canadia.
Yes that episode of &quot;That 70's Show&quot; was pretty funny it had Dave Thomas (Grace Under Fire) in it and he played a good Royal Mountie.

Noriaki - Portland actually isn't that bad except for the weather, real estate costs a bundle, our schools are always begging for more money, our police chiefs succumb to one scandal or another, on the plus side we have no sales tax. Oh wait a minute, DO NOT MOVE TO OREGON! You will hate it ;)

Viper GTS - Same difference, oh that lovely Highway 26 traffic ...
