Staff Applications

First topic message reminder :

This is an application to become one of the staff of the site! Staff have to be active, kind, and work for the better of the community! Staffing can be a hard and stressful job sometimes and there is no pay as this is you volunteering your time to help. Of course you get to help the site and it's members thrive and become a better site. We would like active, helpful, and kind members to fill the positions. People new and old on the site can apply.

At first it will be a trial run of being a mod before you become a full one. This doesn't mean you don't get to do all of the things a regular mod does, it just means you're being tested to see if you can handle and are fit to be one. If at any point you feel like you can't do it, please pm me and we can talk.

Please fill out the application below if you'd like to apply for a staff position

Code:

[b]Main Account:[/b] (Which account is your main account/the account you'd like to be a mod on?)
[b]Site Age[/b] (How long have you been on the site? You can usually check in your profile.)
[b]Age:[/b] (Actual age please.)
[b]Activeness:[/b] (How active are you on the site?)
[b]Staffing Experience:[/b] (What experience do you have being an Admin or Mod of another RP like forum?)
[b]Contribution:[/b] (What are you planning on doing to help the site and what is an active staff member like? How will you be a good staff member?)

[b]Sundew and Libra are fighting in the chatbox. Sundew is right while Libra is wrong, what do you do?[/b]

[b]An admin unbanned someone you banned in the chatbox. What do you do?[/b]

[b]You did something for the better of the site but is now hated by the community. What do you do?[/b]

If you were like to be a certain type of staff- Chat, character, ect.- please specify that in your app!

Congratulations

Ooo, congrats Arky~

Congrats to Ark for being promoted to app slave moderator!

In case any of you didn't know, I changed my main account from Storm to this account, Fate. So I am just going to take my previous app and change it accordingly here:

Main Account: Fate
Site Age Since 1/16/17 Though I have been a member of this community(DRF) since November 2015, so I know my way around the community.
Age: Sixteen
Activeness: I hop on at least once a day, even if I am not role playing.
Staffing Experience: Not much. I am the co founder of the partner site, Untamed Skies.
Contribution: I plan to help the site with whatever it needs help with at the time. Oh, some people are arguing? I can help resolve that. Someone needs help with their character application? Don't worry, I've got your back. I will go and check people's character applications, too. Whatever needs to get done, I'm there.

Sundew and Libra are fighting in the chatbox. Sundew is right while Libra is wrong, what do you do? I try to resolve the argument peacefully and get them to agree on something. If they both won't settle down I will ask them to talk to me in PM's so that I can get more incite as to what's going on. But if things get too heated I am not afraid to temporarily ban someone. But only if they go too far. But I will try everything I can to try to resolve it peacefully before going to more harsh options such as banning.

An admin unbanned someone you banned in the chatbox. What do you do? I ask the admin why they did that, and try to understand their side of the story. They may have a totally good reason for letting them back in. And if I don't think that their reason is just, I can tell them my side of the story to help him or her better understand and we will work out an agreement.

You did something for the better of the site but is now hated by the community. What do you do? I tell the people on the site that I was just trying to do what I thought was right for the site. If they all still hate me, than I would have to just live with it and hope it passes. I will still be kind to everyone and not hate them back.

What improvements would you make for the site? I would just try to make the site a happier, more fun place to be, while resolving conflict and helping others along the way.

^.^

Congrats, Arkhor!

Atremise has been promoted to head mod and Sonus has been promoted to full mod, congrats!

Seeing as the mod positions are full, we still have chatbox mod positions open.

Fate has been accepted to a Trial Cbox Mod! Good luck!

We're still looking for 1-3 more Cbox Mods, so apply if interested ^^

Yay! Thank you! ^.^ Hopefully I will prove myself good enough to be a full cbox mod.

Congrats Art!

Thank you (and congrats) Sonus!! <3

Good luck Fate :D

Okay it was really weird going down to see who was online and seeing myself in the staff online spot. XD

WELCOME TO THE TEAM VORTEX

(Welp, you said you needed 1-3 Cbox mods so… that’s the position I’m going for)

Main Account: Rihzome (although some may know me as Ardent)
Site Age Member since 24/10/2016
Age: 17
Activeness: Almost daily, even if not posting
Staffing Experience: None as of yet
Contribution: Help to avoid and work out arguments and grievances before they can escalate to the point where serious drama / trouble is caused, assist those who need it in character creation or navigating the site, etc, regardless if if falls under my duties or not.

Sundew and Libra are fighting in the chatbox. Sundew is right while Libra is wrong, what do you do? First and foremost, it depends largely on the… intensity of the argument in question, and if any rules are being broken. If it was more a misunderstanding, with no insults / provocations or the ilk being tossed around, it would be ideal to sort it out there and then, before anything further can arise. If such a course of action proves impossible, the argument worsens from there, or is bad when I arrive, it would be wisest to issue warnings to both of them and move the argument over to a Skype / Discord chat with the two individuals, where things could be worked through from there. If they continued their argument in the Chatbox, and depending on the intensity of the argument, a kick or small temporary ban may be issued, to either break up the argument or allow one / both of them to cool off. From here, the second course of action would again be followed, creating a Skype ground where they can work through their grievance with guidance from either myself or someone more experienced in the matter.

An admin unbanned someone you banned in the chatbox. What do you do? Ensure the Admin knows the exact reason why the person was banned from the Chatbox in the first place, including any relevant information (chat logs, PM’s, etc.). If their decision was to keep the person unbanned, accept the decision, but watch to make sure the offender does not repeat their actions. Of course, if it was a major infraction, it would be wise to take it up with another admin  / the head admin, and ask them to look over the evidence, to ensure the decision to unban them was an unbiased and just one.  

You did something for the better of the site but is now hated by the community. What do you do? Explain my justification and reasoning for my actions, either through a topic or PM’s / Skype, and put it up to a vote, to see if the community would rather what I did be reversed. If my decision was reversed, it would be wise to admit to making a mistake and apologize to the community for what I did.

What improvements would you make for the site? On the RP side, aim to implement more tribe specific RP’s, along with events for these said tribes, which would aim to create a more concise identity of the tribe. On the community side, very little could be done, seeing as the community here is already a great one. Possibly implement some more OOC threads or something of the like.

Approved for Cbox mod

There is still one spot open! Even if the spots are taken, still feel free to apply as when some open up your app will still be looked at.
