<p>Okay, I know this may sound silly but what would putting that I am a forum moderator (high one at that for this one place) as an Extra Curricular?! I am serious.</p>
<p>I think forum moderating is a worthy activity. How impressive that will be may depend on how impressively well moderated the site is.</p>
<p>Lol thanks for changing topic but well its a game site :D but it gets millions of hits and is pretty huge. Has anyone done it?</p>
<p>I would be a bit hesitant to put it on the application as thats kinda an odd thing to put down and adcoms could have a negative reaction and think you are just wasting a lot of time on the internet.</p>
<p>Out of curiosity what site is it? Gamefaqs, gamespot, ign, neogaf, etc?</p>
<p>if you're a mod at ign i'll kill you</p>
<p>i've been banned there to many times</p>
<p>I was a moderator at some sites that related to the 'focus' I was theming my application toward (academic sites), but I just put that I was involved in those sites.</p>
<p>I'd put it as an EC that's so awesome</p>

Hm? Like you were involved in language website forums? lol</p>
<p>Saying it would be a dead giveaway to like three people I know that know that I am (they are the only ones that know, I mean come on saying you are a forum mod to people? lol) but I will say it is a site for MMORPGs (which has a forum).
For those that don't seem to know what MMORPGs are, wikipedia it or just think of World of Warcraft except much more games lol.</p>
<p>Im a nerd inside :D.</p>
<p>CO mods are cool.</p>
<p>are the forums most angry-"this-game-sux-so-much" haters or games lovers? Because that makes a difference. :P</p>

<p>Yes, languages and linguistics, primarily. I didn't put it as an EC, but it was mentioned on the app somewhere.</p>

<p>Aren't we all....</p>
<p>On a related note, what if one were to own websites that bring in money? Would that count as an EC?</p>

<p>Yes definitely, that'd be like starting a business.</p>
<p>Hmm. Rethinking.. Do you mean like blogs with Google ads on them or online shops/Etsy?</p>

<p>Additional info. Some applications have short answer essays where you might be able to mention it too--like Stanford's supplement, which asks you for your favorite sites (among other things).</p>
<p>In general, anything you do with your free time can be listed as an extracurricular activity.</p>

<p>Not necessarily blogs, but just sites that bring in revenue from advertising companies, Google being one of them.</p>
<p>Lol I ain't a Gaia mod but okay thanks, I am pretty sure this site brings TONS of money, they have actual staff (paid staff for technical support, contests, etc.).</p>
