What date did you register as a CS member?: March 28, 2009
How many posts have you made in the forum (at the time of applying): 457
How many days a week do you usually visit CS?: Usually everyday, unless something comes up and I can't get access to a computer.
How many hours per day do you usually spend on CS, on a day that you do visit?: Well, since I'm the only person at home, I have the computer to myself. I'm basically on all day. But I multitask so I might be doing other things on the computer as well as CS or watching tv, reading, working out, etc.
Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position (this is not required) (for example do you speak any other languages, or have you had any experience in peer mediation? Do you consider yourself a trade-value expert? Do you already answer a lot of questions in the forum?): I'm taking spanish this year, so hopefully I might be able to help with that. And I think I'm pretty good at seeing a unfair trade... But it all depends on what pet you're looking for and how much you want it. (Just my opinion) And I sometimes answer questions but I also sometimes ask questions. xD
Why do you want to be a General Helper?: Well, I've been a member of CS fro a pretty long time and i feel like I should be helping in some way. I think being a General Helper will help me stay active too, and I wouldn't mind helping out new members, old members or anyone at all.

Question, although I've already entered...

Is there an age limit on the General Helpers, too?

Why do you want to be a General Helper? It would be an excellent opportunity for me to gain a leadership role and experience helping people in preparation for applying to be a counselor at a camp I go to. It would better myself as a person and improve my character along with allowing me the simple joy I get from helping someone understand something. I remember all too well my days as a newbie on CS, and things are even more complicated now. I would love the opportunity to be able to help those in that awkward position. I would still help out as best I can without the position, but I've found that people tend to listen better to those with a colorful name.

Why do you want to be a General Helper? because i love helping people and letting a little happiness into their life, i recently just got into trading again but know quite alot about it and would love to help new members and greet new people, meeting new people is always a joy to me and if i have to repeat things, io actually enjoy it because to me it helps me remember that thing also. so i'd just love to help other members of chicken smoothie have a terrific computer like day.

How many posts have you made in the forum (at the time of applying): 2999 [this will be my 3000]
How many days a week do you usually visit CS? Everyday, Sunday through Saturday.
How many hours per day do you usually spend on CS, on a day that you do visit? 2-3 hours on work days [usually 3 days a week], 4-5 otherwise.
Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position: I believe I'm fairly good with trading and I've been on this website for such a long time I believe I know a lot about it. If there is a question I can't answer, I would probably know how to find the answer as well. I answer a lot of questions on the CS Help and Suggestions board when the questions aren't already answered.
Why do you want to be a General Helper? I would just love to be helpful to this site. I've loved it for a very long time and dedicate a lot of time to it because I find it so entertaining. I think it would be great if others could also have such a good time while their on the internet, and answering questions would bring them one step closer to having a more enjoyable time.

4. How many hours per day do you usually spend on CS, on a day that you do visit?: I'd say a total of 4 or 5 hours! I get on whenever I can!

5. Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position: I do peer mediation at school, solving minor issues between people. I have helped out at an elementary school with 1st graders(for a year). I never ever use chat-speak, I know how to use proper grammar and spelling real well. I'm never hypocritical, I speak from the heart and never lie to people.
But job wise? I've also done some actual stuff with a new CS members, I've taught a newbie how CS works and got her started!

The intro forum I helped her on is here viewtopic.php?f=17&t=522028&hilit=new+to+CS

6. Why do you want to be a General Helper?: Because I remember my first week at Chicken Smoothie. I was so frustrated and confused, I didn't know how to get pets, or post on forums. But then a staff member reached out and taught me how to do everything there was to do here!!! And without the help of the staff, I would not have become this happy with this website. I love it!! And now I'd love to be that special person that helps people become so involved on Chicken Smoothie!
