don't be like that! it doesn't really matter if you are a helper or not, it just means they are on frequently and are available to help so the Moderators gave them "powers" to help further, its ok, it doesn't mean they are any better, or cooler, then you. you are awesome and so are they~ so no need to fret. and who knows? maybe you could be the next helper!
