I used to be a moderator and administrator on a few sites but voluntarily stepped down due to my own mental health. One of the things that a good role model does is recognize their own weaknessess and seek to turn them into strengths. Another thing a good role model will do is own their mistakes instead of blaming others. There are many other things that a good role model does, this is the tip of the iceberg. Simply put: slow is fast.
Not my monkey, not my circus...

Some good advice is looking around and conversating with people. I advise you to start spending more time on getting to know people and when you are well-known or have good reputation from the current staff, you are welcome to apply. I also want to say being professional is something you need to work on. I only hire mods that are Thick-skinned, well behaved, bring value, and are professional.
Some advice on keeping a good reputation from staff:
- Don't Bug us about becoming moderator if you are not going to put in the work.
- Get known around the site
- Explore the features.
- keep a good history.
Such things like calling yourself a "mod wannabe" would definitely be looked down upon by any well experienced Administrator, Global Mod, or application maintainer on any forum.
A good role model is someone who guides users to success and helps users when they need help most.
EDIT: I found this useful Reddit thread shared by @VGmoose which gives a ton of info about modding, click here for more information. Thanks Moose
