You can ad my name to the moderator's list. I was offered a chance to moderate for Criag's List, and turned it down; wish I hadn't.

Ahh, that sucks... it could have been you moderating all those discreet relations posts... hahaha

I would love to be a moderator! I am currently an engineering student studying Mechanical Engineering. I served in the U.S Armed Forces for two years before continuing my education and have achieved an Associate's Degree in Pre-Engineering.

I would like to be a moderator for both the forums, and the Facebook group.
I am currently a student in Civil Engineering in Ontario, Canada, and one of the admins for my school's engineering Facebook group.
I have already told some people that are in my program about this group. In addition, I was also an admin for a Counter-Strike: Condition Zero server but comparing the two may be apples and oranges.

If you still need moderators I'd like to apply, I'm a mechanical engineering student at the Auckland University of Technology.
In addition to that I've spent a lot of time in the New Zealand Cadet forces as a sergeant, so following through with things is a big yes on my list.
I'm also a student mentor at my university

I guess I'm pretty fluent in English? I don't have any difficulty in it. Just another engineering student

As far as improvements and stuff goes. Maybe if we could encourage people to talk about projects that they have worked on (and are at liberty to talk about), we could inspire a few people to specialize in certain fields. The forums are really tidy and easy to navigate as expected of engineering students. But if I see anything that I could work on I will call out Cheers lads

It amuses me how many people scream for new mods on the facebook groups, how many shout to make them mods, and how many people don't actually visit this thread and apply.

I can't guarantee activity on the forums - however I can guarantee you activity on the facebook groups. That being said I feel like I should point out that Chris and I are in the same timezone, so I'm not the best pick if you are looking for someone to cover a timezone region not already covered. If you are not looking for a new timezone then you should most definitely pick me

My English is terribad, but my American is world class

I study Mathematics with a concentration in Engineering Physics.

As for implementing ideas - I direct you too www.myfoxorlando.com/story/20189287/ringtone-manager-central-florida-students-create-app-to-silence-phones-in-class

[Diogo Barroso]

I'm an Informatics and Computing Engineering student. Although I'm on my first year, I'm experienced on working with forums. I administrated two portuguese forums (not engineering related), and am building one for a friend's project. Also, I've been invited to organize some events by my city's Mayor, related with disability sport.

Now, I'll present some of my idea for the forum:
-> Sections dedicated to some of the main languages in the group (other than English, of course). There are some subjects that people may find difficult to translate to English, and would rather discuss them on their mother language. These would be moderated by:

#1: The forum's moderators who are able to speak that specific language (preference given to those who had that has mother language. ie: Brazilian / Portuguese engineers / engineering students would moderate the Portuguese language section).
#2: Members who offer themselves to moderate the area (preference referred on #1 should also be applied here).

I'm currently a student in Mechatronic Engineering at Monterrey Mexico. I'm on my first year. I have some experience moderating in a forum for engineer students in mexico.

I would like to be a moderator to assist the needs of latinos student and hispanic people who need some help to post in english. In this form to expand the forum until to be the best forum of ressources and discussion for latino students.
