To each his own I guess.
You gotta walk before you can run.
And other poetic nonsense.
You came to a role-play server wanting to role-play. Not administrate.
You're not a role-player with the power to help moderate the server. You're a moderator and/or host who gets to role-play. You said yourself this server is different from others, there is more to the basic moderation. There is no way we can 100% let you know what it's like, and you won't unless you do one day get granted these responsibilities.
Right before the summer heat-wave came I role-played rarely. I made sure that everyone else was having fun and no one else was ruining it. When I got a bad vibe from someone, I kept an eye on them. When I have a strong feeling someone is going to randomly attack someone, I hope I can ban them before they kill someone or ruin someone else's experience. When things are going slow, I'll think up a small event so everyone else will continue to have fun; so things don't get too boring.
This isn't the same type of moderation on other servers. You're not just kicking or banning people who break the rules; you're doing much more than that constantly so everyone else can have a good time.
Like I said, a lot of you seem to want power and help ban people than actually run the server, help players, help admins etc. I'm just going to leave it at that. Again, you won't know until you've actually tried it. But if you feel like you can do such a great and better job - good for you. I hope you live up to your expectations.
EDIT: Typo.
