Noah is a legitimately good mod.

Whereas he does have a short temper, who wouldn't in his position? Over the few months he's been mod he has taken quite the bit more abuse than other moderators who've done worse than he has. I've even banned a few people (including an ex-mod) over the abuse and harassment Noah took in his modship.

Hell. I'll even cite this month's incident. Gray took a completely unnecessary route before making the thread to have Noah demoted: I had to step in because Gray was far more pissed than needed and was very close to attacking Noah.

In response to Streve, he has done quite the bit in moderating. Every time I've been in at night he has done a fair job at moderating chat.

Nick: A number of people who went through modship have short fuses. Though Noah, some of his "explosiveness" can be applied as Poe's Law - he can be fairly convincing like he is angry when he's actually simply taking goofiness a step too far. An example: His argument with Batman. I looked into this when Fatal and Cas reported it to me; turns out they were both joking around. Also, 2 hours is pretty much all that is generally necessary when it comes to many of the chat rules. Moderators do need to be somewhat lenient. They're not there to rule with an iron-fist.

That being said, his temper can use some work, but he has vastly improved since his pre-mod days; I'll admit that I used to hate him because of his temper. After he got mod and cooled down, that stopped, and I was actually quite proud of him.
