There are numerous things which are taken into consideration when we promote new assets, sumarizing them into few sentances is quite hard, though we have a dedicated FAQ thread about that, you might want to check it out (link:
http://emps-world.net/forum/index.php?topic=34.0).
However, "applying" for it doesn't increase your chances, it actually shows us that you are into the rank and not into actually helping people.
Also, you have to get others to aknowledge you, you say you play for 6 years (which I HIGHLY doubt) because I am around from 2006 and I do remember the old people around, though I don't remember you. It's not a big deal that, but my point is to make others aknowledge you, get to be known.
One last thing, a moderator must be active both on forums & in-game, just like Mary said, you get quite a lot of responsabilities as a Staff Member. As I can tell by your forums profile, you are not quite active on forums so there goes half of your "potential promotion" process. However, being on forums and spamming doesn't mean being active, we look through your activity and don't look as much at the post-count (hence why we had Staff Members with thousands of posts, but also with only hundreds).
It really implies a lot to become a Staff Member, and also to keep that rank while promoted. Those fellows you see out there with their rank actually worked a lot to get there.
There's really much to talk about this subject, but I underlined only the few important things which crossed my mind while writing this to you. Check the FAQs, help others because you want to give back what you, at some point, maybe got from others, and do it for yourself not for the rank.
