Ask the mods anything

Hey all,
 
Do you have questions for the moderation team of Derpibooru? Ask them here! I’ll be replying to questions for at least most of the day today, but other mods may step in too.
 
Please follow all established community rules with your questions.
 
Serious questions get serious answers. Stupid questions get stupid answers.
 
Ask away my little ponies!

Is it true that you have control 90% of alcohol imports around the world?

@QuasarNova  
Kind of. The reality is that we simply buy 90% of it and ship it direct to Archonix and TSP.

Why are all mods HITLER? >:[
 
loljk ~<3

@QuasarNova  
Only 10%, lots of the mods have been moving from alcohol to vaping weed for health reasons.

Who is worst mod?

@ice1517  
Me, hands down.

@Arcaire
 
All this knowledge at the hands of mere mortals.
 

 

@LightningBolt  
Your God damn right.

What toppings should I order on my pizza?

@cheezedoodle  
Two number 9’s, a number 9 large, a number 6 with extra dip, a number 7, two number 45’s, one with cheese, and a large soda.

HOw wild do TSP’s Scary But Fun Butt Fun parties get?

@ice1517  
The last time we did it we extradited someone to the moon.
 
^{is hoping for a serious question at some point}

@LightningBolt  
Hey. I find that offense. I’m totally a Stalin.

When can I be a full Mod? D=

@Zebasiz  
When hell freezes over.

@Princess♥Cadance  
Ok then, how much time do mods spend on the site?

@ice1517  
Honestly it depends. Some people are on here almost all of their waking hours. Others (like me) are on sporadically throughout the day, or once per day. Some only hit the site every other day or so.
 
We stay in contact through IRC mostly, which all staff are on.
 
Edit: I’m gonna graph this at some point in the future. It’d be fun to see.

When will my father return from buying cigarettes from the gas station?

@ice1517  
It varies between person to person.

Do you know any ponibooru mods?

@LightningBolt  
“When hell freezes over.”
 
Well good news for me because Hell is a frozen lake of Satan’s tears! =D  
So where’s that Modship?

@ice1517  
“Ok then, how much time do mods spend on the site?”  
As other’s said, it varies. But for myself I’m pretty much on 24/7. Though that’s because I just have the site open in a tab while I do other stuff on the computer~

@some pony  
I don’t personally. And Derpibooru has/had no relation to the original Ponibooru site (or any of it’s attempted revivals). Simply when the original site shut down, Derpibooru uploaded a ton of pictures from Ponibooru, and most of the userbase migrated here, but that’s about it.

Do you ever feel that you’re leaving something behind when modding the site?
