If I get a salary I'll do it. Nobody's gonna work for free on a site that makes money, you know?
Wow

Stack Exchange has no difficulty to find thousands of people who are eager to work for free. In an other area, big-money sporting events make use of volunteers.

You are calling the existing mods nobodies. Time to get your beard out of your ...
If that's how you interpret it, fine.

I was going to joke that your company car is your own pair of P. F. Flyers.
I was flabbergasted to find out they still sell them...

I am willing to drive Hikaru and Magnus around and deliver food to Hans.
Hans is pretty demanding with those food delivery services. You might not get tipped...
When is a business a community?
When people work for nothing...
I'm sure the owners do very well from chess.com - and good luck to them - but asking for "volunteers" for a business that I assume must be worth a few hundred thousand or millions a year? I don't think so...

I can imagine the conversation "when you're a GM you don't have to tip, everyone knows that, I never tip, I'm a GM."

I'll check out the application

Oh yeah, this @kesetokaiba guy.
Ever since he started posting so politely I figured he was thinking of being a mod... and I'm not even mad about it, he seems like a genuinely nice guy
Thanks @llama36 - if you scroll back a few pages in this thread you'll see I was accepted and so yes I am a chess.com mod now; there are others joining too, but everyone can make chess.com a better place starting in the present - one doesn't need an icon next to their username to be a friendly person, or to help others
Nice
OK
