congrats you just decreased your chances by asking him to promote you, whether you said it as a joke or not

@ParanormalPizza Everyone applying is asking to become a moderator.

@123456 the good applicants dont ask to be promoted, they get it by proving themselves.

@Rodeen by applying you are asking to get promoted.

Not really.

Then why bother applying?

I am applying for the position, when you apply you dont ask for it you show that you are capable of handling the position, you dont just ask and get a mod who doesnt know anything or a rude mod, you need to prove yourself.

But applying is asking. It's just an indirect way of asking.
