i really don't know whether to apply or not
i mean i start my senior year in high school in about a week and i don't know if i would had enough time for being a mod..

would it be enough to be online only 1-2 hours a day (more on weekends&holidays though) ? or does it require like 3+ hours every day or

also can mods have some days off if needed, for example if there's an important exam week at school so they just simply couldn't be online much during that time

I don't think 1-2 hours would be long enough. We are able to take breaks and do things when we need to. You could always wait and see how your first days of school are since it is 2 weeks until apps close. I personally didn't think senior year was a big deal and classes weren't hard and I ended up with too much free time which allowed me to become a mod.

yeah i’ll probably think about this when school starts, thank you! ^^

Going to copy exactly what Photosynthesis said on a previous page:

As long as you have a good understanding of how the website works and are active it won't be against you.
We aren't sure yet on the number, depends on the applications we get.

Is there going to be a bootcamp or will the new mods be chosen strictly from the applications?

Most likely there will be a bootcamp. It gives the applicants a look to see what we do and it allows us the opportunity to work with them prior to a badge given out.

This might be a stupid question but since I haven’t been banned or anything close to that on the site, what kind of “punishments” can be applied? Like is there some sort of list that explains the different kind of warnings or bans so that someone without previous moderator experience can get an idea of what options they have to handle the different scenarios.

I thought and hoped so. I'm a big fan of bootcamps as the current team members get a chance to see more of the applicants than just what they write in the application, and the applicants get a feeling of what being part of the team is like.
I'm really excited to see what will happen in the bootcamp if one is held!

Yes we have a guide in our forum section. But there will also be a bootcamp where you will learn directly from the current mods as to what options there are for punishment and what is applied in certain scenarios ^_^
