Ok, lets get the elephant in the room out of the way
How did I interview a JMod?
Basically I'm friends with a JMod on Habbo Hotel, and I kinda just asked him some questions, lol.
* The "interview" was more of a chat, and not really professionally made at all, I didn't really ask him a bunch of questions in order to make a thread on Alora, but more so for fun and because there were some stuff that I personally was curious about.
* This "interview/chat" is what it is, and there's no red line to follow, I figured that it might still be an interesting read though
* This "interview/chat" was made ~2-3 months ago, I had totally forgotten about it until just recently when I got interviewed myself
* I'll keep his irl name & JMod name out of this, but his Habbo name should be fine.
His Habbo name is: BelieveMeSafety

edit:
It was pretty awkward posting this, I hope that at least someone found it interesting though.
The main reason as to why I find this chat interesting is because this is a JMod speaking in a setting that isn't even remotely connected to Runescape/Jagex, so maybe he feels a bit more free in what he can say? idk
About the setting though, the setting was both on good and bad, it was essentially in a public chatroom and there was tons of people chatting, so I think following up with long chains of text would've been quite difficult.
The questions I asked weren't exactly as written, and I asked a fair bit more questions (mainly about that other game though, since he's a person of importance there aswell), had I asked for it to be more of an interview than a discussion, then I think that I would've gotten some more developed/better answers.
