A post from De_nugis mentioned about the possibility of having someone take over as a mod?
I'm not sure what a mod does and what it entails? Could you let me know what I would have to do, I'm not sure what it is a mod does and how it works. I'm willing to learn, if it's something that I could do; so please contact me.

I'll give you a run down of modly duties.
At any time during the month:
- update the list of people who've signed up to rec, e.g. put de_nugis in the "J2 reccer for March" list. (This takes at most ~five minutes per month.)
- keep track of the number of recs a reccer has made; must be a minimum of 3 (~20 minutes per month)

I'm not used to posting a lot of things on LJ and I'm trying to figure out if this is something that I could do. I'm interested but hesitant.
