Moderators, (or mods for short) are the second highest rank. Only a very few can be a mod. When a mod visits a specific thread, they have access to a special bar appearing at the bottom of the page. No other members except mods and Administrators can see it or use it. The only way to become a mod is to win a contest with that specific prize, or by proving yourself worthy by posting clean threads and warning others if they post bad threads. Also, the first 100 members become mods!
