I am the answerer of the linked question and I have pretty much no moderator experience. My answer may reflect that.

On the other hand, I have been a lurker on certain online communities for years, and active to the point of power user on others. I have seen moderator leadership bloom and grow in some instances and crash and burn in others.

I am here because community leadership, diversity, and policy interest me and I would like to contribute as much as possible. Unfortunately I don't have questions to ask about specific problems because I'm not a moderator and haven't encountered such problems. I feel that I can contribute constructively by answering. I don't expect my answers to be slam dunks, but I try to make them good. I would definitely like to learn how to be better, and appreciate any feedback, whether it is in the form of edits, comments, votes, or even other answers on the same question being voted up above mine.

If the community doesn't want me to answer because I don't have mod experience, I'll respect that decision, but I would like to think that non-mod viewpoints are welcome here, per http://meta.moderators.stackexchange.com/questions/32/should-we-accept-questions-about-moderation-issues-from-users-points-of-view
