Hi Ezequiel, I made a pretty significant edit to your question to make it more on-topic here. Asking for specific responsibilities is off topic (because it's unique to every company) but I think your core question here is a great one. If this changed your intent to much feel free to edit and clarify - I think this is a great question! — enderland ♦ 24 secs ago

I made an edit to break this up a bit to make it more readable. Welcome to The Workplace! — enderland ♦ 5 secs ago

@IanHolstead Thanks :) it's always nice when someone says they are good edits too :)

Thanks @enderland , indeed, I also think this way the Question is better, and will be useful also for other people in a similar situation. It's my first question here, and wasn't sure in which way to formulate it. — Ezequiel Jablonski 22 mins ago

Stuff like this makes SE way too ~~addicting~~ fun

Ian Holstead

@enderland haha, this is true

enderland

Making a real difference in people's life is something which feels a bit more unique to Workplace than other sites though

Generally an answer on Stack Overflow won't change someone's life ha

Ian Holstead

@enderland this is very true

On a different note, I've been away for quite some time, thing seem pretty quiet these days

enderland

@IanHolstead Yeah, this chat room has gotten pretty quiet :(

Ian Holstead

has it just been recently or has it been progressing this way for a while? Im just curious

I think it's been slowly getting less active, a couple of us who were more active folks in chat got busy or had job changes, @jmac got assimilated by the borg and became part of the collecting

Ian Holstead

I know the feeling :P

have you enjoyed your time in mod-land thus far? I kinda went MIA right after you started

@IanHolstead yeah, it's been pretty fun

It took a while to balance being a moderator with being an active participant on the site

But I think now that's a lot better

It's like anything, it takes a while to get used to things

For a while I was pretty wary doing anything since I have this weird diamond thing which means different things

And change is hard ;)

I do love participating here too, I've tried to do more of that recently
