Well first off, hello prospective staff member! Whether you're new or one of our very loyal members, if you want to try out to be a part of the staff, you've come to the right place.
Now since we aren't a very big site, we aren't desperate for staff, so the running to be a staff will be tough, but don't rule yourself out yet. Really, it's a simple process, and soon you may see another name on the sidebar.
The Process:So, anyways, the process is simple. You will PM me saying that you would want to apply for a staff position. In response, I will send you a short questionnaire, you will answer and send back. At that point I will watch you for the next week or so, see how active and helpful (if help is needed) you are, before sending you a PM saying you've made it or not. I will also take into account your past with us, such as if you've been helpful in the past, active in the past, things like that.
If you are sent a PM saying you've been accepted as a staff member there is still a bit more to go, before you are a complete staff member. You should make an account to be your staff account, and then you will be given a temporary position with limited powers. After a three weeks of testing you out on the temporary basis, then you will become a full-fledged staff member.
Temporary staff are up for the running of Staff of the Month, as they do a good amount of stuff as staff. They will also have their name and a picture of a character of theirs on the side bar.
I do realize that sometimes things happens in life, and that's ok, I will take that into account and not hold it against you. And I do realize that there are times when things get slow and nobody needs approving or help, and no work on the site is needed, and I will not hold that against you either.
So all in all, it takes about 1 month to become a full staff member, and it's really a simple process. I want to have this full process because I've had cases where someone I make staff abuses their power, ruins the board by deleting a bunch of accounts or posts, or something like that. I don't want that to happen here, so if you want to become staff, bare with me, because while you may be trustworthy, many people out there are not.
Thanks everyone,
Kilin
