Agreed.
From my point of view, I didn't become a moderator to be a "special member". I volunteered back in the day when there was no one else (except the first moderator "Dark", who gave up before that for unknown reason) besides the developer team just to help them with forums. If they want to reward the work we do with something, then it is up to them but it's not
why I do this, to get something out of it.
I also try to be as normal user as I can by interacting as much as possible with 'regular' users, even though I have a 'special' color or my current user title.
But since we are able to change that and there is no rule about it, I don't see what the big problem is. I still don't see myself any more special than regular users. I just wanted to make my profile more personal.
