How many days a week do you usually visit CS?
I am online every day
How many hours per day do you usually spend on CS, on a day that you do visit?
Two at the minimum, I usually spend more but school is starting soon and I'm not sure how much more time I will have. I know for sure I will be on for at least two.
Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position?
I have worked with special needs children and difficult students to help them with their work and such. I am very calm and usually don't get angry easily. I have been told by many that I'm friendly and helpful. Two years ago I got an award for being most helpful. I have introduced and helped friends on here on cs. I have gotten random PMs before asking for help and I answered them calmly. I am usually quick to respond to PMs as long as I am online. Since I am in school I will usually be on my phone or iPad but I will answer your questions. I am friendly (or so I've been told) and love making new friends.
Why do you want to be a General Helper?
I have always wanted to be a part of the cs staff. Literally the day I joined that became my goal. At first I honestly didn't understand the concept and just wanted my username to be colorful and pretty. After a while I learned about what the staff does and how they have to work to keep the site flowing like it does. I want to be helpful and feel like I'm doing something for others. I know I'm probably not the most qualified but it would be a dream come true for me.

How many days a week do you usually visit CS?;
Everyday ^ .__.
How many hours per day do you usually spend on CS, on a day that you do visit?;
About 7-8 hours, all spread out.
Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position?;
Erm, I speak a little French but no a lot. I am pretty good at the tools in the Oekaki work, though I do not do much art. Nope, I haven't been asked any questions but if I had been asked questions I would of answered them truthfully.
Why do you want to be a General Helper?;
I think it would be great starting to help people more, and listen to peoples problems and try to help them. I am open to Private Messaging, so people can Private Message me whatever they want, I know I haven't been on Chicken Smoothie long but I know all the rules and read through them now and again, just to make sure I am listening and doing them. I find I am quite friendly and love to help people. Also because I am on chicken smoothie a lot. If I am chosen I will definitely try to help as much as I can, and be on maybe more than I am now.

How many days a week do you usually visit CS?
I am normally on every day, but I am entering high school so I might not come on as long as I normally do for like, two days of the week, but there should not be any change to how long I am normally on for. We have a PC and a Mac as well as a iPad and a iPhone so I will almost always have access to CS, in spite, or course, on the odd occasion of that we might have gone on vacation and do not get Wifi (because you know how technology hates to work in our favor sometimes xD)

How many hours per day do you usually spend on CS, on a day that you do visit?
At the very least, one, but that is very rare. I normally spend a majority, if not all, of my spare time on CS. I spend countless hours a week on CS, so I think this would be a great thing to help people while I'm on.

Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position (this is not required)
I have been on CS for over a year now, and could answer any questions on how the website works, like, for example, the tools on Oekaki or helping people find the correct forums. Also, answering PMs as soon as I can, because I know what its like to have a PM sent out, and the other person taking their time to answer, or just putting it off, and I normally go through a lot of forums regularly, so now, instead I can help instead of just scanning the topics. I am also very familiar to a majority of the forums on CS. My mother speaks Greek and Afrikaans fluently and I speak some French, because I am taking a class, and have taken previous classes on it.

Why do you want to be a General Helper?
I have always wanted to join CS, because I love to help people. I am also always open to PMs and people normally ask me for help anyways, so now I thought it would be a good idea to help more people, with more questions. I have also been told that I am very friendly and I never treat anyone badly, as I do not believe that it is not necessary. Also, I visit CS so much, that I am so familiar with it, and this would be no inconvenience, but instead, I think I would enjoy helping members (: Solving problems has always been a strong skill of mine as well as doing it in a calm manner.

I have tried to find ways to apply before, and have always wanted to be apart of the CS Staff, so thank you for giving us the opportunity to apply. (:

1.What date did you register as a CS member?:
I registered CS Wednesday, Jul 28, 2010.

2.How many posts have you made in the forum:
So far, I have made 763 forum posts. Though, this will be my 764th post here in the forums. :3

3.How many days a week do you usually visit CS?
I am usually on 7 days a week. But lately, I've had to be on a hiatus because of moving. But now that we are settled in, I can certianly be on more.

4. How many hours per day do you usually spend on CS, on a day that you do visit?
It really depends on the day. Some days, if I'm not to busy, I can spend hours upon hours on Chicken Smoothie. Other days maybe an hour and a half to two hours? But since school will be starting soon, I will not be on all day. But I will always be ready for questions that people need for me to help and answer for them.

5. Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position:
I try to be a leader, and go above in beyond. Not only in real life, but in CS too. I always try to send a good word of advice to anyone who may need it. No matter who it is, I try my best to help out. In real life, I am constantly volunteering at nursing homes or animal shelters, or where ever I can help. My native language is French, but I speak fluent English, as well as I am learning Spanish. (Though, I would not call myself a fluent Spanish speaker, quite yet. :3)

Here on CS, I try to stay calm, cool, and colected. I have spoken to rude members a few times, but I always try to stay positive and cheery, as it seems to help. I'm good at navigating the forums and I am pretty good with my trading rarities. If people need help for whatever reason, I will be ready to help in what ever way possible. I would love to show my apreciation by helping, because of the people that showed me how fun this site could be.

6.Why do you want to be a General Helper?
I can still remember when I joined. People were so nice and kind. They made me feel welcome to CS, and I really wanted to help out like them. Even without the title as General Helper, I always love the chance to help someone learn the ropes, or give advice to someone who needs it. I always have admired the people who give their time to help others, whether it is in the real world or her in the heart of CS. The people who helped me had those pretty pink names, and I was really glad they were there. So I would love to change the way someone plays the site, by making it easier for them. I know, I really apreciated it, so I know other people would too.

We have all been newbies at one point.We get to the pretty homepage of CS. We see Avian and Toroto on the top, and all the links to explore the site. And we have absolutly no idea what to do. It can be a little scary at first. But not to worry, it does get better. We surf the forums, adopt the pets, but we still look for that guidance to really learn how to play this site. I would love to be part of the team of dedicated volunteers to help these new people, as well as older members that just need some guidance.

How many days a week do you usually visit CS?:
I always try my best to get on everyday, but I am slowly getting more and more homework, so one or two days I may not be on. As the year goes on this might change, but I will always be on at least 3 days a week, unless I am on vacation. Sometimes I am on my iPad though, and it takes me a bit longer to answer PMs, as I don't get good internet.
How many hours per day do you usually spend on CS, on a day that you do visit?
At least 3-4. I get on as much as I can, but same as the question above, homework is getting harder and harder, so I may not be on all day. I will try to get on as much as I can, but other then when there is a storm, or I am not home, I am sometimes on 4-7 hours a day.
Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position?:
I do not speak any other languages, but I am starting french, and I am planning on learning italian soon. I so not consider myself a trade value 'expert', but if someone gives me 10 trades, I can most likely answer about 4-8. I answer as many questions as I can, and try to help Chicken Smoothians out when they need it, but of course, if my application is one to be chosen, I will be helping even more. I know how the oekaki tools work, yes, I love drawing on here, in oekaki, so I am very familiar with the tools.
Why do you want to be a General Helper?:
Generally, I just want to help people out! I enjoy Chicken Smoothie a lot, and I would love to help out on here, not just trade all day^^ I mean, I love trading and all, but you'll have a day when no one sends you trades, then the next day you get 8, I'm not trying to complain, just trying to express that there is more to Chicken Smoothie then trading. I love helping people, and I can get strict when I have to, not flat out mean, but I always try to be super nice to my fellow Chicken Smoothians. I got such a nice welcoming when I first joined Chicken Smoothie, and I have had a blast here, I still do! I would love to help people out so they can have loads of fun as well, I would love to do this, volunteer or not, I get to help others, there's no price for that.

I understand that this job may be a challenge, and I know you will pick the right people <3

Good luck everyone {{ I feel like I am entering a giveaway with all this typing c: }}

Do you already answer a lot of questions in the forum? Do you know how all the tools/options in the oekaki work?)

1.What date did you register as a CS member?:
December 23, 2011. So, just about 9 months ago. c8
2.How many posts have you made in the forum (at the time of applying):
2336. Seems like a lot less XD
3.How many days a week do you usually visit CS?
I try to come on every day. Sometimes I am very busy in real life and don't have time, but even then I'm on for about 5 minutes. c8
4.How many hours per day do you usually spend on CS, on a day that you do visit?
CS is pretty much all I do. XD I've developed an obsession 'dedication' to it, so I can't stand to go 1 day without it. Therefore, I'd say maybe 3-5 hours on a weekday, 4-7 on a weekend. Again, I'm on more days than others.
5.Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position?
~Um... I'm a social butterfly! I love to talk to people. Seeing a number next to the 'new messages' bar just makes me smile like the Chesire cat! I'm always glad to lend a helping hand.

~Um... I can type pretty fast for my age. I can type the fastest out of my family, excluding my Dad as we are tied. XD I also have pretty good grammar/punctuation/spelling, besides the fact I say 'confuzzled', 'meep', and other words people probably don't usually hear everyday.

~I am well-aware of the basic Oekaki tools. I may not be good at art but I've pretty much got it down-pat. ;3

~I'm definitely unique and outgoing. I'm not afraid to step up and tell it as I see it.

~I am a pretty fast reader and tend to reply quickly.

~I'm generally kind I think. I mean I dunno. >,<

~I love to have conversations. I also am very willing to listen to your problem and tackle it at it's source.

~Um... seeing as I am a typical teenage girl, I can connect and understand problems that other teenage girls have.

6.Why do you want to be a General Helper?
Psh. I think the question is, why wouldn't I want to be? That would make my answer a lot shorter.

One of my CS dreams is to see my name in a color other than black, for one. Even if it is just a General Helper, temporarily. ;D

I want to be a general helper because it means to generally help people. XD Helping people is just something I love to do. Yeah, I'm still just a kid, but that doesn't mean I can't change the world - even if it is just CS (which to me it isn't, I'm just making a point here). I'm imagining how it would be like - getting to read the reactions of people just makes me grin and feel all happy and such. Again, social butterfly over here, so helping more people means meeting more people!

Okay, so maybe that wasn't so long. XD
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
I know I probably have no chance, seeing as a lot of people have quite beautiful forms that I could never top. But hey, I don't care if I don't get a job - I am just a kid, after all. c8 Thank you for this wonderful oppurtunity, Tess (& Nick). I'm glad we have a chance. L8

How many days a week do you usually visit CS?
I visit CS everyday, only when I am busy may it be that I don't visit that day

How many hours per day do you usually spend on CS, on a day that you do visit?
Usually 6-8 ours a day, and if I am busy only 4-6 hours

Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position?
I am a patient person really, a big softie if you get to know me. I help some of my friends who are new when they need help in trades by telling them if it is fair or not.
Truthfully I don't know all my rarities but I can tell if a common trade is fair or not, I am currently learning the rarities of trades. I know Spanish, can write it as well if it helps.
I have been a mod in some threads, a rp, a adoptable. I know my way around CS, know the Oekaki tools from hours of messing around with them. I also know my post tools, like how to make an Image appear, the URL, font colors etc.
I was in Safety Patrol in my school, in the Student Counsel too. I am just now starting to scan through the Introductions page to welcome newbies. I know the site rules, Rp rules, Oekaki rules and have reported some spam on my Rp. I don't mind repeating things if they don't get it, I will treat newbies equally and will answer all questions as best to my abilities.
I love talking to people and am no longer shy, I love helping people so this is what might help me become a General Helper.

Why do you want to be a General Helper?
I would like to be a Helper, because who wouldn't like to bring a smile or knowledge to a person by answering their question. I love helping people who need it, new or old. When I joined I struggled a little bit, was too shy to ask for help from Helpers. I would love to help un-clutter CS from spam, answer questions that need to be answered. I have always wanted to be on the CS staff too, have applied for some positions, don't get them but that doesn't bring my hopes down that someday, I can bring a smile to a person's face once I finish helping them.

Thank you for Considering my Application!

2.How many posts have you made in the forum:
13,330 posts.... Wow..

3.How many days a week do you usually visit CS?
Six - Seven, unless I am visiting friends or on vacation, which I usually put in my signature if so.

4.How many hours per day do you usually spend on CS, on a day that you do visit?
Sadly, around 14+ hours until school starts, and then it will be more like 5+ hours

5.Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position:
I know a lot about the trading values and try to teach them to people when I can, and I do sometimes help people in the CS problems forum, and welcome people to CS when I stumble across their topic.

6.Why do you want to be a General Helper?
It would be great to help people and welcome people to CS, and I already get lots of Private Messages asking questions like how to roleplay or how to trade fairly, so I figure being a General Helper will attract more people who need help, so I can answer their questions as well! I could also teach newbies how to use the different codes for roleplays. Plus, with the amount of time I spend on CS, it would be a nice filler of my free time, rather than just coloring tons of pictures.
