Psajdak said: If after all this time I didn't get chosen, while some others were even invited even without applications, I doubt I will ever have that position, anyway. Database moderators are never recruited without application. Users may be invited to apply by staff members, but they must still go through the application and examination process. Invitation also does not guarantee that they will pass the examination. |

| This thread is better than any soap opera. It amuses me how much people care about getting a position on MAL. |

OneTrueEmiya said: On that note, congrats to the new mods. The job of a moderator is no easy task (which I, and many others, have no intention of ever taking on), especially because of the sheer amount of time you will no doubt have to invest in controlling the forums. In any case, this is a welcome change to our wonderful host of dictatorial overlords. I've often spoken out about how moderators no longer interact with users so much and have thus been growing more distant from us. Some, of course, have also made dubious decisions that I will probably never understand or get a decent explanation from. Here's to hoping you guys can bridge that gap and make the moderation team more capable and friendly. starting with disputing the 30 character limit rule please Just to clarify (again): We're DB Mods, we will not have anything to do with 'controlling the forums' or anything like that. So you should get your expectations right before you end up being unjustly disappointed with our performance. |

I Nominate this guy: Psajdak If anything they have given me some good insight about the users who contribute outside of the Mod Position. Also I Just felt like It would be cool if I had something like this happened to me I would like a helping hand perhaps :v Also what happened to your avatar? It was someone petting a fish no Psajdak? |

Besides, my expectations regarding the mod team can't go any lower than they are now, so you won't be disappointing me easily. |

| Congratz folks! ^^ |
| Good We've been in need of new DB mods for a while now |

| Congrats to the new recruits. I'm looking forward to helping you learn the ropes. Psajdak, your contributions are really appreciated, as I've told you in many messages in the past years I've been modding your submissions. Due to a simple misunderstanding and your current feelings of frustration, you're saying harsh words which I hope you will reconsider. Users like you are what MAL needs and thrives on. Our database would be of such less quality without the thousands of contributions you've made. I really hope you change your mind and continue submitting. Also, you saying it was a waste of your youth makes me feel sad, since I've also spent hours and hours on the database. Even if there are times when I doubt my choice of spending my time like this, at the end of the day, I still enjoy knowing I'm making this site's database better each edit at a time. I hope you consider applying (with an application) the next time we recruit. When I saw the list of applicants and saw that your name wasn't there, I was actually a bit surprised. Unfortunately, I wrongly assumed you had done that on purpose and that you didn't want to apply to be a mod. |

| Now I hope the DB goes much faster. |
| added the fourth most popular anime onto this site |
| Very nice! Now we just need the same on the manga side, I've been waiting too long to read some things that still haven't been approved/added for weeks... |
 |
| Welcome new moderators ;3 |
| A little late but congrats to you guys for joining! I have more people to ping for picture reports. :p |
 |
| Congrats to everyone who made it in the team! =) Hope the job won't be too stressful. |
 |
| Thank you all very much! I really didn't thought that I would make it, but still here I am! Let's see what the future is holding for us :) I'm looking forward to become a better and better Mod over the time^^ Rasco said: Congrats guys. Valoon Since I know/talked to you a bit.. I'll make you my go to guy.. Or something. Sure, just do that :D |
| Trying to watch all available anime series so you won't have to anymore, the list of anime I can recommend is still in progress, tho |
| Congrats to all the new additions to the mod team. Try not to overwhelm yourselves. |
BestPanda for moderator 2017. I will rule the forums with an iron fist. |
| More staff is always welcome. So they're anime database only right? That's a lot at once. Between this and the board modifications, MAL is starting 2016 very well. |
 |
| Why my friends turning to the dark side |
 |
| Do your best senpai! |
 |
| Congrats to the folks who landed these positions! Thanks a ton for your hard work in advance! |
| I think the anime moderators deserve more credit for maintaining a vast database with dozens of updates everyday, and with new stuff like PVs being added to the load, they've got more than enough work cut out for them. Myself, I'll continue to contribute at least every now and then. :-) |
 |
| Meanwhile, you're the only site on the entire internet referring to Goku as "Gokuu" ROFL. |
  |
| Have mercy on us! Please assign a VERY ACTIVE MOD 25/7 at anime/manga discussion, we need your help to stop the onslaught on these discussion threads! If I'll become a mod, I would issue a decree where a comment/reply needs not be a one-liner sentence. And I'll ban pretentious anime threads! Me being a mod though, is an established impossibility. lol |
| NEW MODERATORS!!!!!! CONGRATS!!!!! |
| ありがとね！ " be your self no matter what they say" |
| Congratz to the new moderators!!!! best of luck |

Now we just need the same on the manga side, I've been waiting too long to read some things that still haven't been approved/added for weeks... Same, some of the manga I've added 3 months ago haven't been approved yet, hope there was a recruitment ongoing for manga moderators too. |
| Do you get a message when your database edit submission is rejected? I wonder where some of my submissions have gone after a while. Should I cite sources in order to get my database edit submission through faster? |

Pullman said: Not that there's anywhere I can put a source when I just want to add a subbing group to an anime... I'm left wondering if myanimelist is just that backed up with database edit requests that need moderator approval, or if there is some technical fault stopping my request getting through.Takata said: Do you get a message when your database edit submission is rejected?

I'm currently working on the fansub queue from oldest to newest so something you submitted a few days ago will still take a while until I get to it. |
