How would one become a moderator of ESO? I don't know why, but this just came to mind. Don't ask why I ask, because I don't even know, just wondering how.

    Depends on the company. Some actually have their moderators working in-company, and therefore have to live nearby. Others (most) just find people that make good reports, never argue, always are polite, etc.

    However, I think ZoS falls into the first category, official mods are in-company only. I say this because they have Forum Ambassadors (see the sticky), which seem to be the aforementioned good community people.

    English is not my first language, Finnish is.
    Please don't heap on me for grammar problems.

    Only Zeni staff are able to be forum mods at this point. Forum members are able to become Community Ambassadors, see the sticky thread for more info on that:

    If I was to apply, doesn't that mean I'd have to move near them?

    A man does not become a moderator until a man becomes no one.

    Not necessarily. I don't know what Zenimax's policy on this is, but this kind of job can often be done from home.

    Just to confirm what others have said, we don't have volunteer moderators on the forums. However you can certainly submit a general application for such. Additionally, while they don't provide moderation, the community ambassadors help out in other ways.

    That's helpful information, just as @Reverb stated. Thanks, @ZOS_AlanG

    @ZOS_AlanG could you confirm or deny whether all moderators must first be noticed by, and then inducted into the Dark Brotherhood?
