It'll be a joint decision between the national mods, enwiabe and me.
Basically it'll be based on frequency and quality of posts and maturity (study score also helps, but is not essential).

Oh okay so you're looking at activeness and also previous posts? (second part I'm a little worried about xP)

What is the workload like for a subforum moderator?

What is the workload like for a subforum moderator?

Heaps. You are expected to be online every second when you're awake, read every post and rate it on readability, usefulness and potential threat. You are then to submit a report on every thread and their progression, and then a daily update on psyche of each poster, including developing new profiles for new posters in your board. Failure to compile will mean we will strip of your rights, make you sign a non-disclosure form and torture you until you know who's your daddy.

(the workload is pretty light, you just have to pay some attention and stop bad things)

  That sounds like rather too much hard work for me. However, I'd be intrested in some sort of premium membership, maybe one which offers users the services of a personal grape-peeler.

Depends what you want to achieve as well. In general, the national mods will catch most of the blatant trolling and CoC violations and such. Your job is more to keep a closer eye on your specific sub-forum since the national mods can't and won't be viewing every single thread. After that, it's really up to you. Many subforum mods will write guides for their subjects, pre-exam tips and good luck messages etc. It's up to you how involved you want to get. Ensuring that your subforum is clean and tidy is the bare minimum though I guess.
