Welcome to the official form for the r/teenagers Discord moderator applications! We are looking for several new Discord moderators who are willing to communicate actively on the server and engage in moderator discussions.

Moderators are all unpaid volunteers and being one can can eat up a lot of time. They are primarily responsible for:
- Content moderation: removing rule-breaking content.
- User management: warning, muting and banning users.
- Unrest management: reacting to incidents on the server that lead to short-term and long-term harassment or raiding.
- Server improvement: coming up with ideas to improve the server, discussing new features implemented by Discord and participating in making the server safer and more healthy.

Moderating will demand more time and involvement than just being a regular user. It is by no means a massive chunk of our lives, but can sometimes be a little hard to balance between jobs, homework, family, etc. We communicate regularly with each other via Discord, step in when needed for short or long durations, work with the other two teams on projects, and try to be regular active users within the community. You will have to participate in private moderating discussions, be expected to know the difference between private and public opinions, and be trusted with sensitive and personal information.
If you would like to help out the community and can handle the responsibilities, we would love to have you!

**Please do not apply if you do not feel that you can regularly dedicate time to the server or can only foresee yourself being active for a short time period.

Eligibility requirements:
- Must be in good standing (no recent serious issues with the mod team).
- Must speak and write English fluently.
