We have supervisors rather than moderators. The supervisors are amazing because they have great mentors, and the community assistants accept only the best. It is a hard act to follow, and when you get your supervisor badge, you don't want to fail, since it is a high honor and so many are counting on you. I've experienced this honor and and am glad to be a part of this wonderful team of people. The supervisors and community assistants here truly are the elite!
