Thank you for your interest in moderating /r/gadgets! An ideal candidate for our moderation team should:

Have a minimum account age of 1 year, with a clear history of level-headed, civil behavior. Moderators should have a willingness to check the Unmoderated links and modqueue on a frequent basis (several times per day), as well as regularly checking comments to keep the discussion civil.

Already being an active contributor to /r/gadgets will boost your chances, but is not a requirement. Similarly, previous moderation experience is strongly preferred but not essential.
