"Moderators for The Onionfarms are hand-selected from a pool of users created from a large amount of background investigations, character assessment, displayed social skills, and contributions to the forums. They must display great discretion, judgement, integrity, and tact to be eligible as moderators.
Moderators are representative of the community, and as such must have great performance on the site in every aspect, not act in self-interest, or abuse their position to receive special treatment or shut down users with conflicting thoughts. The exact opposite as Kiwifarms.
Sycophants and "speedrunners" are identified and blacklisted permanently. Any moderators that slip up and become a burden on the community are gone, effective immediately.
The Onionfarms has been designed to be fair and equal for everyone, and as such our standards are a little higher than yours.
The role is performed without pay. The reward for their action is not a blue name or having the ability to run rampant, operating under different standards, but fostering a community that everyone can enjoy."
