If you make it look professional that means you put effort into making the thread and if you put effort into something then it usually shows and people will also see that you tried and are more willing to listen. Just because you make something look good doesn't mean you want to be mod. It might just happen to mean that that's the kind of person you are.
I agree with what moo is saying ... Have a well written, put together thread looks a lot better than a messy immature one. I can't speak for others, but I enjoyed reading it and found the elegant coding and wording to add to the seriousness of the topic. And not only mods can have well put together threads ...
Also agree with moo. I'd much prefer to read something well thought out, and put together, than some jumbled mass of text. No offense to anyone, of course. I'm just talking in general.
True that's why I want the people on forums to change. It's not fair to the people that get insulted or teased.
