DiabloFans is looking to recruit some new mods! Your job will be to help the current mod staff keep the forums neat and tidy according to the forum guidelines. Here are a few general things to go over.
Do not apply if you have a short temper. You will be expected to handle things calmly, not just ban and warn everyone. Sometimes it's more beneficial to talk or work things out. Use good judgement.
Do not apply if you only plan to stick around for a month or two. This is a volunteer job so I don't expect you to be online all the time but we need active mods.
You will be expected to take part in discussions and be active in the community. We do have a leave of absence thread though to let us see if you are on vacation, busy with finals, cats on fire, etc.
We do not limit you to one section. You will have the choice of moderating anywhere you see that needs it. It's fine if you choose to mainly stick to a few sections just take a peek at others when you have time.
Having warnings will not exclude you from being chosen but it does of course lessen your chances if it's a significant warning.
We use Skype to keep in contact and for you to ask questions or solve any doubts you may have.
In your application be sure to include things you feel are relevant such as your history with the game, your history with online communities, your history working as a team with others, any other applicable skills or information you can think of.
I'd like to apply for this position... I'm an active player on the north american servers, who has yet to find this game boring. I help powerlevel / powergear people on an almost daily basis (many of you can attest to that) and try to help as often as I can
Aside from the occasional game of starcraft, I only play diablo. While I do have a full time job, I am fairly active on this site as well.
I think some of the most important things that we all as a community need to work on is simply making sure that we all continue to have a proper attitude towards each other when it comes to diablo and gaming as a whole, to be able to take criticism well (and learn from it), and to focus on the issue being discussed, and not the person discussing them.
As moderator, i'd help enforce these simple but important guidelines.

NA servers - add me if ya want - ysoserious#1178. - i run a clan if anyone wants an invite. no requirements to join - as long as your nice and friendly your more than welcome
I would like to apply to become a moderator. I am active right now on NA servers. I was in the beta and I have been playing since release.
I like browsing different threads to get as much information as I can get regarding whatever class I'm playing in the season. I l would like to be able to help out here and give back to the community that I love so much.
Have played since launch, and is my current game (don't play anything else).
Experienced and knowledgeable on most meta builds.
Understanding of optimizing builds and using alternative gear set ups depending on the scenario.
History with online communities:
My first online community I was involved with was when I was 10, which was Gaia online (pretty geeky but was a blast). Most of my threads were about anime, sci-fi and jrpgs (think ff7). I was active on the forums until the age of 16.
When I started to play Everquest I was involved with some bad theory crafting posts. Played Everquest until I moved on to World of Warcraft and thus active on the world of Warcraft forums. Played the game and remained active in the community until my departure of World of Warcraft which was after I beta tested warlords of Draenor (hated warrior changes). Most posts were about balance changes, spec theory (theory crafting) regarding the class: warrior.
Moved to League of Legends which I played for about a year when I was reintroduced to Diablo 3 (HATED D3 launch). Was not much involved with the community site as it was toxic.
Started to play seasons in D3 was semi-active in the community until I completely walked away last year. The forums on the d3 site are plain toxic and horrible and no meaningful discussion comes out of that joke of a community.
Team Experience:
I apply with some team experience. I started to really get into with World of Warcraft. I started as a member of ONITALL (largest guild on Nordrassil) in wrath of the lich king. Started to gather mats and craft gear, afterwards depositing it in gbank. From there I started to communicating with some officers and became buddies with the guild leader. I was involved with some major guild events (pvp tournaments, Orgrimmar city raids, Stormwind marches), 5 or so months later I formed a raid group and was promoted to raid leader, nearly a year later was appointed one of the officers, I left ONITALL at the end of Cataclysm and went to the Horde.
Notable experience was in Area-52 where I joined the semi-hardcore raiding group, unrelenting chaos. I was a warrior dps main/off tank:3 for their main 10 man group and had a noticeable voice in boss strategy and helping other raid members maximize their damage and explained to the tanks how they should tank certain bosses (Heroic Shamans as an example).
Outside of video games I work as a pipe layer for a construction company. I am involved with grade work, shooting grade, laying concrete, metal, conduit pipe etc. I am with a 4 man crew and involved with a lot of the math that goes into laying pipe. Aside from skill craft experience, one must know how to operate with the crew. Communication is key regarding safety, planning and other various parts of the job.
Availability:
I work from 7am-5:30pm and arrive home at 6pm. Rest of time is involved looking around diablofans and playing d3, sometimes watching an episode of some anime I like. My availability from mon-Thurs is 6ishpm-11:30pm (which would be times I would be active on the forums).
Fri I get out early at 4pm EST and arrive home around 5ish. I would be available from 5pm-midnight.
Sat and Sun I usually have off, the only exception would be Sat, sometimes I work but it very rarely happens. I act as a sound guy for a small business on Sat but only for two hours, and Sun I work as a sound technician from 11:30am-2pm. Rest of the day I'm free.
If the diablo 3 moderators etc. need more information please contact me through P.M

the game. I hope they can sort this out and get back to making a game

Wish I could be a mod here, but I just don't feel like I'd have the time. Been comin' to this sit for years now, and not only am I a lover of the game(tattoo of Tyrael on my leg I enjoy boasting about) I attempt to play as often as I'm able. Also, been playing since launch and recently have attempted to start up some occasional live streaming and youtube vids(not as interesting as other tubers). Though, that front is an extremely slow process with not having time(2 kids and a g/f who's not happy about me spending time on the game). But I'm still chuggin' along.
Good luck all and hope you guys find a great fit to the team.

I go by Dnothing, TheCasualGamer, or Darius.
I am a 18 year Diablo franchise veteran. Diablo is in my veins. Hail Satan!!!!
Can help mod if you want, i visit the site a few times a day and can take care of some spam. Not really into deleting peoples posts unless they are really bad.
Hello, My name is Clint Pillow, friends call me Pillows. For some time now I have expressed my nerdom through various discussion threads about the games I play. I participated in HOTS tech Alpha and Beta and provided a significant amount of feedback as well as a few hero designs. All my feedback and discussions are easily accessible through my profile.
Currently I am involved with testing Overwatch and providing feedback on that as well, although I just got invited so there isn't much logged yet. My interest in acting as a moderator for D3 forums stems from my enjoyment in discussing games in general. I frequently participate in a lot of these twitter debates that you see on MMO Champion, primarily HOTS
as I have played for so long now that I feel like my perspective is pretty developed. My perspective on games is pretty developed as well, I have played PC games since Duke Nukem 3D and Doom 2. I've seen the rise and fall of genres and buisness models alike. I've seen game mods become standalone games and custom UI's inspire developers to update default UI's.
My school background is in cognitive science, part of which focuses on user centered design. So I am very familiar with the concepts of collecting and compiling feedback as well as working with that kind of data in a team setting.
I wanted to keep this short and sweet. I have a lot of free time and discussion is already a regular activity of mine. I figure my Bnet history and twitter discussions speak for themselves

I would like to apply for the moderator job on this website! My name is Lane Sullivan and I'm 17.9
I have been playing Diablo 3 since launch, and much of my childhood consisted of Diablo 1 and 2. I spend every waking moment playing Diablo when I'm not at school. It is sad because my argument for not buying games now is-
Friends-"Yo buy this game to play with us Sully!"
Me-"Nah, I'll just buy it play it for 2 minutes then go back to Diablo."
When I am not playing Diablo I always browse the forums at school. My government class is dedicated to DiabloFans. Aside from school I have work that only conflicts on the weekends and Wednesdays. My job is a cashier at Wal-Mart, so I am very patient with people. I also try to solve issues among my friends often.
Thank you for reading this terrible application, I'm in Government right now.
I can help with this if you like I am always on the site looking for information and have no problem keeping the "trash" off the forms. I have played the game since launch and I have nothing bad to say about the game or people that play it even if they don't know what they are doing. I will tell you more about my self if you wish to send a personal contact as I am not about giving out my RL information on a public forum.
I would like to apply ive played since Diablo 2 i have not gotten bored of diablo 3 yet and looking for ways im able to help out on here:)
im also from houston texas!, i play diablo daily! and i always try to help out in the chat chans on the game.
im a former Guide on Everquest(The Rathe) i also speak english/spanish/german thanks
I hit you up on Skype, Zero, but dropping it here too since I keep missing you. I'm happy to help out with all the spambots. Although I don't post and am therefore not a good substitute for community moderators (good luck guys!), I do lurk here and I'm happy to help with the spam if you want more coverage on that count from other employees.
Wish I could be a mod here, but I just don't feel like I'd have the time.

If still accepting apps Ill throw my hat in the ring. Older gamer, seen it all. Really heavy into D2, ran a D2 site and chat forums for a few years. Walked more servers than I care to count and never made 1 cent on the game. If you need or want to know more message me. Although I did take last season off playing wise I was still here on the forums (reading) a few times a week. Definitely could use some officer presence in the clan too.
