Moderators will not be selected until Spacetime can no longer successfully handle the mass of people. Spacetime has not clarified if they are interested in moderators, just what most likely will happen once the devs can no longer handle the increasing numbers of players.

Also moderators will be few, and being selected is going to be very hard, considering this forum has many great and humble contributers.

P.S. (We already have our unofficial runners up for a mod position IF there ever is mod positions).
