[Random Inquiry] ~ Site moderation, as a job?

[Lysander_Works]

Do the admins get paid to moderate the site?

I'm just curious. Some part of me wonders if it were an area I could branch into (as a job) ~ in general.

It depends on the site. Often times, no.

Most of them are volunteers. There are exceptions when you are hired to moderate something, like if you do so for a company (Gameforge, for example).
But on forums like this one? There is no legal way to get paid. Tony gets all the gold as the owner, and if he is sharing it with someone... that's on him.

I don't think sites like these make enough money to pay mods

I doubt anyone would pay for my smut though…

Makes us really appreciate the dedication. All hail Tony

Fr. I hope SH stays on for the long haul though. I like it here. It was a shame what happened to Belletristica…
