[*~Sharni~*]

What date did you register as a CS member?: 17th August 2009
How many posts have you made in the forum (at the time of applying): 1779
How many days a week do you usually visit CS, and how many hours do you usually spend per day?: 6 or 7 days (normally 7) Just came back for a little break due to overloading collage work, now that's cleared up, I can devote more time to CS, so about 4 hours minimum for week days, about 6 minimum Saturdays and Sundays can vary from 4-10 hours
Have you moderated on any other forums before? Nope
Have you participated in many roleplays outside of CS before? Yes, I used to regularly RP here till I left: http://paint.ponybox.com/
Have you participated in many roleplays on CS before? Not many, all the ones I really want to join I normally don't have the right characters for xD
Why do you want to be a roleplay moderator for CS? Because I really love roleplays and have had a lot of experience with them. I once hosted a no-rule RP on another site, just to see what happened and it was chaos and since then I have had a thing about making sure all RP's stick to the correct rules (both site and user rules). It will also encourage me to develop more of my own RP characters ^^
Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position (this is not required) (for example have you run your own roleplay website before, or have you had any experience in peer mediation?) I set up my own RP site once, however it never really took off so I am not sure if this counts or not xD Probably not but I just thought I would leave it here anyway xD

I registered as a member on Chicken Smoothie on August 30, 2008 at 7:08 PM

How many posts have you made in the forum (at the time of applying):

I have made 17,174 forum posts

How many days a week do you usually visit CS, and how many hours do you usually spend per day?

I visit Chicken Smoothie seven Days a Week, and usually for 7 or more hours a day

Have you moderated on any other forums before? If so, please link to them:

I have moderated and administrated on ProBoards forums before, but they usually never lasted pretty long and they've probably been deleted by the company by now due to inactivity. I wouldn't remember the links to them anyway, though, I'm afraid.

Have you participated in many roleplays outside of CS before? If there are any places in particular, please link to them:

No

Have you participated in many roleplays on CS before?:

Yes, I've been roleplaying on Chicken Smoothie for years and I'm very familiar with the concept.
I've done many one x one and group roleplays, though lately I've been doing one x one roleplays because group roleplays die very quickly and hardly ever get anywhere anymore.

Why do you want to be a roleplay moderator for CS?:

I love roleplaying. I've been roleplaying for years, and find it to be very fun and interesting. I consider roleplaying to be collaborative writing, and I love writing. I'm on the roleplay forums and roleplaying frequently, and I would love to help with moderating the roleplaying forums. I feel like I would be able to check things out and scan the forums often, and keep people in line on the forums. It wouldn't be much out of the ordinary for me to be checking the roleplay forums, since I'm on them so much already.
I've been a member of Chicken Smoothie for a long time and I know and understand all of the rules very well and I would love to be able to help enforce them on the roleplaying forums and keep the website clean and family oriented, the way it was meant to be.

Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position (this is not required):

I know how to talk to people in a friendly manner, and I know how to explain things and reprimand people without coming off as flat out rude. I will be professional, though. I won't let someone off the hook or let them get by with breaking the rules just because they're being nice to me.
I'm a responsible person, and will complete tasks that I need to do as often as I have the time. I would check the forums as frequently as possible, as it would be part of my task if I was chosen to be a roleplaying moderator.
I'm very familiar with the Chicken Smoothie rules and the roleplaying rules.

How many posts have you made in the forum (at the time of applying):
Currently it's 17,623 posts.
How many days a week do you usually visit CS, and how many hours do you usually spend per day?:
I'm usually on Chickensmoothie daily, and I'll lurk for a few hours each day.
Have you moderated on any other forums before?:
I've had experience on a few other forums (mostly for my private roleplays and such), but none of them stayed active for long.
Have you participated in many roleplays outside of CS before?:
I roleplay here and there - wajas.com, wolf-haven.com, a few private sites that are compiled of people I've met, and with my friends in real life.
Have you participated in many roleplays on CS before?:
Quite a few; I'd say the majority of my posts are roleplay posts, this was where I learned to roleplay and feel most comfortable doing so.
Why do you want to be a roleplay moderator for CS?:
For years now I've been involved in Chickensmoothie's community. Much of my time was/is spent on the roleplay board. And I understand that between all the members there are many young children that play on the site, and we need to be careful about what is said to prevent exposing children to these less-than-appropriate subjects at such a young age. So, I want to help out with doing this.
And then there are also the other subjects that are touched in moderating the RP boards - like art theft. I know the subject well, and would enjoy stopping it's spread.
Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position:
I don't have any extraordinary reputation, but I'm responsible and I'd like to see that CS stays child-friendly and safe ^^

15956.
3. How many days a week do you usually visit CS, and how many hours do you usually spend per day?
Seven days a week unless sick, extremely busy, or grounded. 5+ hours a day, almost minimum.
4. Have you moderated on any other forums before? If so, please link to them
No, unfortunately I have not.
5. Have you participated in many roleplays outside of CS before? If there are any places in particular, please link to them.
No, I have not roleplayed outside of CS before. Only in email instant messaging.
6. Have you participated in many roleplays on CS before?
Yes. Over ten.
7. Why do you want to be a roleplay moderator for CS?
I love roleplaying, and I am very strict when it comes to rules. I am a member who tries her best to report anything that's against the rules, and I do it often. I would love to help the CS community to have less rules broken; in this case, roleplaying and art theft rules.
8. Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position (this is not required) (for example have you run your own roleplay website before, or have you had any experience in peer mediation?)
I have had a website before that had a roleplay forum, but no one else other than my friend joined it. I have not had any peer mediation experience online since none of my friends have fought with each other before, but in real life I am good at solving disputes between children. I am also very patient and mature.

Thank you for this opportunity.

What date did you register as a CS member?
I registered as a CS member on November 24th, 2010.

How many posts have you made in the forum?
As of this moment, I have made 4,017 forum posts.

How many days a week do you usually visit CS, and how many hours do you usually spend per day?
In a normal week, I visit CS daily and spend several hours here. I like to keep CS open in another tab and check it regularly for role play replies and such throughout the day. I would estimate that I spend about 5 hours here in an average day.

Have you moderated on any other forums before?
Yes, I have. I have been a Global Moderator for Avian Alley since May 17th, 2012. My username there is Fivefingers, just like here at Chicken Smoothie. I greet new members, keep the forums clean, and help to keep AA a fun, safe place for everyone to enjoy.

Have you participated in many role plays outside of CS before?
Not really. I really enjoy the CS atmosphere for role playing and have yet to find anywhere that I like better. I used to role play on Neopets many years ago. I'm afraid those forum topics are long gone by now. When I discovered Chicken Smoothie in 2010, it quickly became my go-to place for a nice role play.

Have you participated in many role plays on CS before?
Oh, yeah. I always have a role play going. Usually, I participate in more than one. On average, I'll be a member of 3-5 active role plays at any given time, and I will often browse for good ones to join later or to just read a few of the posts for entertainment or inspiration.

Why do you want to be a role play moderator for CS?
I've had so much fun here at Chicken Smoothie and I am always looking for ways to give back. Even just by being polite, honest, patient, or friendly with other members. Seeing as I'm already spending so much time typing up role play replies and scanning for cool new plots I may as well be useful while doing that, right? Role Play Moderation is right up my alley. I'm an experienced role player and I know the site rules very well. It's a world I am very familiar with and I have excellent judgement about such things. I feel like I could do a lot of good.

Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position?
I speak both English and Spanish.
I have experience in forum-related authority positions.
I am articulate and patient, even in difficult situations.
I have a strong stomach, so to speak, and am capable of handling inappropriate and mature content in a responsible and mature manner.
I am very good at handling arguments fairly and without bias.

What date did you register as a CS member?:
I joined ChickenSmoothie on Saturday, March 14th, 2009.
How many posts have you made in the forum (at the time of applying):
I've created 11,362 posts since my join date.
How many days a week do you usually visit CS, and how many hours do you usually spend per day?
I visit ChickenSmoothie consistently seven days a week with rare exception. I'm typically on my iPod throughout the day when visiting the site, so I spend an average of about 3-5+ hours a day here.
Have you moderated on any other forums before? If so, please link to them
I have no previous experience with moderating.
Have you participated in many roleplays outside of CS before? If there are any places in particular, please link to them.
I have not participated in roleplays separate from the ChickenSmoothie website.
Have you participated in many roleplays on CS before?
Indeed I have; I've probably participated in the range of 30-35 role plays throughout my experience, perhaps more. I myself have created around four or five roleplays. Most of the roleplays have been successful, with dedicated members and semi-literate to literate quality.
I prefer supernatural roleplays, particularly animal-involved ones, but I'm proficient with nearly any type of roleplay.
Why do you want to be a roleplay moderator for CS?
I want to be a roleplay moderator for CS because I believe I have the skills necessary to upkeep the forum. I have a level head, fair perception, and I absolutely love a good roleplay. I would make a great addition to the ChickenSmoothie team and would be dedicated to my work of making sure the roleplay forums remain safe, fun, and appropriate for all members of all ages. Roleplaying is supposed to be a relaxing and entertaining pastime; why clog it and ruin it for others with violence and vulgarity? I'd help to make sure this won't happen.
Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position?:
Other than creating and maintaining my own roleplays on CS, I have no online experience with mediation. However, I've had quite a few instances amongst my peers in real life where I've had to act as an in-between. I had to separate my own personal views on the matter at hand in order to fairly see each side, and would then help both sides to mend whatever it was that had broken between them.

How many days a week do you usually visit CS, and how many hours do you usually spend per day?
7 days per week, generally around 3-5 hours per day

Have you moderated on any other forums before? If so, please link to them
Unfortunately I haven't

Have you participated in many roleplays outside of CS before? If there are any places in particular, please link to them.
Yes, I did a lot of roleplaying on Subeta and participated in a onexone roleplay over email for nearly two years.

Have you participated in many roleplays on CS before?
Yes, I've done a few onexones as well as some group roleplays(though the group roleplays are not as recent)

Why do you want to be a roleplay moderator for CS?
I have been a member on CS for many years now. It's been a place that I've truly enjoyed and is one of very few sites that have held my interest for a long period of time due to its family-friendly nature and strict enforcement of rules. I want to see CS continue to grow and flourish while staying a safe place for people of all ages.
I'd like to be able to be a bigger part of that and be able to help remove inappropriate content as well as make sure that everyone is keeping to the rules. As a member who has been around from the early days of this site, I've seen many things change and improve. However, I've also seen a few negative changes in the user base as the years have passed. I want to help halt that negative progress and if that means starting in the roleplay board then so be it.
Besides that, I truly enjoy roleplaying, and although I've not spent much time roleplaying here on CS, I have been an avid roleplayer on Subeta since the day I joined back in 08-09.

Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position (this is not required) (for example have you run your own roleplay website before, or have you had any experience in peer mediation?)
I've been working in customer service for a year now, so working with people who are upset is a normal part of my day. I'm educated in the roleplaying rules here on CS and have the ability to keep an eye on those roleplays that could potentially become a problem.
I'm also a self-motivator and I love to read, so spending time reviewing roleplays and removing inappropriate material will not be difficult.

I was a part of the Mediation Team in elementary school and middle school, a group dedicated to keeping the peace on the playground. I have had a lot of practice with helping to resolve issues while remaining diplomatic and tactful. :3

Have you participated in many roleplays on CS before? Yes I have. I have also minimodded and owned a number of roleplays.
Why do you want to be a roleplay moderator for CS? I'd like to become a roleplay moderator on CS to help provide a safe and stable environment for all users to roleplay on without a worry of harassment or bullying. I'd be glad to help educate new users to roleplaying and allow everyone the joy of roleplaying.
Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position (this is not required) I have good conflict-handling skills and can deal with offences in a kind but professional manner. My roleplay experience allows me the knowledge on roleplay decorum and when site rules are being breached.

Thank you for the opportunity.
