Global Moderators - Awaiting selection.

[Zeee]

I am looking to fufill my CS dream of being a Global Moderator

1.What date did you register as a CS member?:
I registered as a CS member on Fri Jul 02, 2010 6:13 pm.

2.How many posts have you made in the forum:
6447
(Six thousand, four hundred and fourty-seven.)

3.Without posting your age, are you at least 18, and willing to risk seeing adult content when screening posts that are waiting for moderator approval:
Yes.

4.How many days a week do you usually visit CS?
Every single day of the week, unless sick, busy, or have to do something that cannot be missed. Other than that, im on a clean slate of being on CS. Im usually more active on Saturday, Sunday, Tuesday, and Friday. But I will be as active as possible on every single day.

5.How many hours per day do you usually spend on CS, on a day that you do visit?
11-13 hours minimum. Not exactly maximum, I can tell you now unless something is going on I cannot miss then I will be on nearly 24 hours on Friday, from 3:10 PM - anytime. And then all day Saturday, Sunday from anytime - 10:00 PM. Or later.

6.Have you moderated on any other forums before? If so, please link to them:
Hmm. I have moderated a RP site, but sadly I have lost the link to it.

7.Now the important question: Why do you want to be a moderator for CS?:
Its my CS dream, to become a Global Moderator. Not just a CS Staff member; a Global Moderator! Usually I have applied for all the previous ones, but havent been awarded the amazing job. I would give up the world to be a CS Global Moderator. All of this team is so wonderful, and id like to be a part of this splendid team. I mean, the creators of this site themselves are wonderful and I am happy that they are the creators of this meaningful site. The team here on CS is what makes all this possible, and Id be the happiest person on earth to be a part of that team. Explaining why I want things, as you can see on my form, isnt my best area, but I hope I do get the splendid job of working on CS.

8.Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position:
I can speak fluent french, and am beginning my way onto spanish and other languages. I know a bit of greek, aswell. I can keep my cool easily under peer pressure, and how to avoid caving in. I have spoken a bit to young children about the effects of people trying to negitive you, draw you in into the boundaries. Peer pressure is a hard thing to work under, but I can keep my cool very easily. I am patient, kind, levelheaded, a hard-worker, and when I put my mind to something I keep it there until my goal is achieved. If I do say so myself, I am very friendly and mature. Respectful, and always understanding. I let people give their side of the story, and then I usually explain things out.

Thank you to bits, Tess, and good luck to all.

How many posts have you made in the forum (at the time of applying):
2489 posts as of October 9, 2011

Without posting your age, are you at least 18, and willing to risk seeing adult content when screening posts that are waiting for moderator approval:
Yes, and yes I would.

How many days a week do you usually visit CS?
Every day, normally.

How many hours per day do you usually spend on CS, on a day that you do visit?
8 or more, normally. Sometimes less, sometimes more, but I'm on quite a bit.

Have you moderated on any other forums before? If so, please link to them
Nope, not yet, anyway, though I do control the chat room for the CS thread "Pound of Hope".

Now the important question: Why do you want to be a moderator for CS?
I would love to be a mod for CS, simply because I want to help. Not only help the rest of the staff, but to help the CS community stay as friendly and accepting as it has been for me, for future members. CS has been a big part of my life, ever since I joined, and the community here has given me quite a few new friends, something I want newer members to be able to experience. I want to help both old and new members stay on track, by sorting out disputes, sorting out art theft, keeping users happy with the time they spend on CS.

Though I am not the most confrontational of people, I do what I have to do, which has included sorting out cases of art or character theft in threads I'm staff on. I always try to be calm, courteous and open-minded, happily apologizing if I am proven wrong due to a misunderstanding. I hate being rude to anyone, and I will avoid it at all costs, even if they are rude to me in return. I may be a bit short, yes, but I always do well to stay as unoffensive as possible, something I believe I am pretty good at doing.

I have helped newer members before, when I've noticed actions that could get them in quite a bit of trouble, often explaining to them what they are doing wrong, and why they should stop, so they don't get in trouble later on. I like making sure they're on track to having a good experience in the forums, and not about to get themselves in a heap of trouble.

Plus, I would really love to help keep the community as friendly as possible, for those of all ages. I would love to be able to settle disputes as calmly as I can, and, hopefully, with both parties satisfied as to the outcome, though I know that's not always possible. I would happily remove anything that could be considered "too adult" for CS, just so kids, too young to see such things, wouldn't be exposed to it. Nothing much phases me anymore, and I would have no problem getting rid of it.

I understand this job would be difficult, and will come with it's fair share of challenges, but I feel like I can take those challenges. I understand I may gain enemies, and I may be yelled at my many a user, but, in the bigger picture, I'll know I'm helping CS continue to be a friendly and accepting site that it always has been, at least to me. I only wish for a chance to help out.

Thank you,

Tiikeria
