I just has a quick question what does a member have to do or be in order to become a moderator for a forum? The reason I ask this is because some of the forums (not all of them) have just channel moderators no forum moderators and usually the channel moderators are busy, the viewbies I am guessing are looking after the forum. I am sure that some people in the forum would be willing to take care of forum. Out of curiosity I would like to know the reason behind lack of moderators in some forums. Thank You!

Hope I didn't offend anyone.

There is no such reasons behind the lack of moderators. The people who are willing to take care of the section can PM the channel moderator, then they will be considered for the post.

ah well i think there is major revamp most ppl r busy
and sometimes only viewbie is left incharge
and i guess admins and gms r looking into it
there is no such procedure as far as i know regardless of a person how much time he or she has been on forum or how many posts he or she has done
right now i dont know how it works before mods wud give names to gms and then gms wud shortlist and then list was put up
now i dont know myself
but still i feel there shud be rotation policy or the dev team may just get tired as its non paying work and ppl do it coz they like it or are active in particular forum

Hmm this may help you *may be slighty outdated* https://www.indiaforums.com/forum/global-moderators/108788/india-forums-frequently-asked-questions

However to become a mod/viewbie you have to be active in the section and show a mature attitude (causing fights or being in one isnt a good idea lol)
Helping other members is another brownie point.. usually newbies need alot of help finding their way around the forum as they are the ones who for the first week or so that demand to know where the update is or where the video is lol
A new feature has appeared in all sections on IF, it says somehting like Join the team or similar near the names of the people in charge of the forum. You can fill that form out if you wish...
Or you can contact a channel Mod (there are mods for zee, star, sony. ndtv etc) and put ur name or another members name foward... and wait for a response 😊
Hope that helped..

Response to applying through that will be known when the promotion list is put up. Henna seems to have covered everything, except that we'd prefer if you didn't suggest other members or get them to suggest you. We don't take them into consideration =)

Locking this as it's repetitive.
