1. Not this time, but I've been a moderator
That's a tough gig, IMHO.

4. It took up a good chunk of time
I found myself logging in when I couldn't sleep, cleaning up the board, then realizing it was time to start getting ready for work.

6. Of course it depends on which forum you're moderating.
If you're moderating the Books forum or any of the DU Groups, for example, it will be drastically different than moderating GD 2004. :-)

9. I was a Lounge mod once.
It's a very cool way to support DU.

10. I spend very little time on DU in the evenings or on weekends...
..and during the week, I can't really devote any of my time since I'm in essence on someone else's clock. So the short answer is "No". I've got my hands full trying to moderate two teenage boys at home.

...but I probaly will after I have a full-time job and my Gold Star. I know that there have been some moderators without the gold star, but I'd just feel better applying after I got mine.
