Congrats! What exactly does a moderator do?
AND as a moderator, can you tell me when I will reach 4 stars?

I believe you get the 4th star at 400 posts (recalling without checking).
As far as mods go :
Due to the sheer volume of the posts here (hey, the Lounge is popular, what can I say?) and the ever growing membership means that there are tons of new messages for mods to browse , not only for "snarky" content (which happens very rarely) but also for requests for help from Loungers (who sometimes neglect to PM a mod and instead ask something in a message... which is fine until you realize how many new messages are added each day... We don't want a single Lounger to think that we are ignoring any request for info or help, even if it is literally buried in stacks and stacks of messages...
Mods also are responsible for moving thread/topics to appropriate sections, deleting threads/messages that are obsolete or out of date, keeping conversations within threads "on track" (our minds tend to wander sometimes....) and generally try to stimulate conversation (get your mind out of the gutter!) and encourage a general sense of fun and enjoyment of the wonderful world of Muggs.
We're sort of combination Tour Guides, Hosts, Policemen, Construction workers and Medics.... to the Lounge..
(and in MY case as the Global Mod, in addition to the above, I fly high above the globe, getting a birds eye view of the Lounge, attempting to make a pest of myself to Jose, and suggesting all sorts of technical improvements, logistical suggestions and making sure that all of the regular mods are bright and cheerful to you guys.... as well as trying to occasionally make you smile and chuckle at a silly remark!)
That help??
Moral of story ... when in doubt (or if you have a question or problem), please PM the mod of your choice or in the case of a suggestion, post it to that section... meanwhile, we'll keep browsing the ever growing messagebase for those of you who .... forget that request.... (it would be so much easier if all mods were telepathic...... )
