Exactly what are you implying? I like to help people here. I follow the rules. What's there to be suspicious about?
A moderator on a message board is a position of power but it's a lot of work. It's a bit of a thankless job, really. When somebody craves such a job, one can't help wonder about motivation. You previously expressed a desire to see other member's warning levels - as if that's any of your business. That is a red flag that you seek to be a tyrant. I doubt you will ever be a moderator on this message board. If you aspire to be one elsewhere, I suggest you not be so transparent. Message board owners look for members who love being part of the community and are consistent, long-term members. They also look for people who are relatively humble - not those who go looking for power. If you want that, establish your own message board.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
