Sorry in advance for a serious post breaking up all your fun…
To be honest, I don’t want something defining me as a moderator on my avatar. We are members too, believe it or not, and want to interact in the community as normal members just like any of you. When we act as mods, we put a [mod says] and proceed with our duty. If we are defined as moderators all the time, we might have to put [posting as a member] every time we weren’t acting as a mod, and I wouldn’t want to do that because we are members first and foremost, who are volunteering as moderators, so our default should be normal member status, and we should notify when we are acting as mods. I’m fine with being on the list and it saying I’m a moderator on my profile, because I am, and I’m grateful and proud to be one, and I understand that we may be under more scrutiny when we post, but I started as a normal jelly and I like being one still.
