Aww I wish I could.. I LOVE helping people! xP
I may be new.. but I know so much about CS.
Why does it have to be 8 months? Why not like 5 or something?

8 months is a good amount of time to learn a lot about Chicken Smoothie, and anyone under 8 months cant be trusted to know a lot about the site, let alone be a general helper.

Oh I wish I could Apply. I want to sooooooo bad. Is there anything I could do to help around the site. I really want to do this except its my 7th month, and I know a lot about the site. I go on 24/7 (my fam calls me addicted to this site) Is there anything I could do to be a general helper?

I know I can't be either because its only my seventh month! Just try and hover in the help and suggestions forum and be a non official helper and help any new members. That way next time Tess will have more reason to pick you

April 17, '10

2. How many posts have you made in the forum (at the time of applying (if it's less than 300, do not apply)

3601

3. How many days a week do you usually visit CS?

7 days

4. How many hours per day do you usually spend on CS, on a day that you do visit?

About six, or seven. On the lowest, three. And on a weekend, maybe eight or nine. On school days of might be two or three, but whenever my computer is on, I always have CS on.

5. Can you think of any particular skill you can bring to the position (this not required) (for example do you speak any other languages, or have you had any experience in peer mediation? Do you consider yourself trade-value expert?
Do you already answer a lot of questions in the forum?)

I think I have a talent for making people feel welcome, and I'm good at helping newbies with their questions. I have a lot if patience, and I already try to help out on the fourm. I
could bring more happiness, and fun, which is already
what CS is about. I'm very calm, and level headed about
answering questions, and dealing with people. I do know what is right, and what is wrong with trading pets. I do love to do art, and express my feelings through my drawings on the Oekaki board. I can bring a different style of art to CS.





6. Why do you want to be a General Helper?

I love helping out, and making new friends. I want to be a General Helper because I feel as if I could help out, and make CS a more fun place, and less of a confusing place. Then they could get right with it, and not even be confused. I love CS, and would love to be a part, or a small part of its incredible community, and help out.

How many days a week do you usually visit CS? I try to be on as much as possible; for the most part I'll be on every day for at least an hour if not more. Sometimes I miss a day in between but If I can get on, I will get on.
How many hours per day do you usually spend on CS, on a day that you do visit? Usually two or three hours, but sometimes only one. It's usually scattered; I'll be on for like a half an hour here, a half an hour there. Once school starts for me, it will probably be more like an hour after school hours, but I'll still be on a lot on the weekends.
Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position? I try to help new players as much as I can; I post often in threads for new players with questions and invite people to PM me with questions. I'm good at dealing with people; I don't get frustrated easily and am always polite. I'm not awful with making trades fair, but with '08 pets I'm always a little confused, which may make me unfit for the job. ^^; I know a very small amount of both Spanish and (Mandarin) Chinese. |D I will be taking a course on Mandarin Chinese once school starts, and I may also be taking one on Italian. I'm not sure on the Italian yet though; I'll let you know once I hear from my school administration.
Why do you want to be a General Helper? I enjoy helping people. If my name's a different color, it will help people to know that I'm always open for questions. When I was a newbie, other people were really helpful to me in getting to know how the site works. I'd like to help others in that way. Even if I don't get the status of General Helper, I'll still try to help out as much as I can. I really appreciate the opportunity to apply for this position. ^^

How many posts have you made in the forum (at the time of applying): 13637 (Aproximately, since I'll have more than that once you read this)
How many days a week do you usually visit CS? All 7
How many hours per day do you usually spend on CS, on a day that you do visit? Probably about three on weekdays (Not counting summer, of course) and 5 or more on weekends (Or in the summer)
Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position? Well, I do speak both french and english fluently, and I'm often put into the position of peer-mediator for my friends, though its never been an official title. I also do have experience as a mod on a few threads here on CS, giving me the oportunity to learn how to easily settle disagreements and be able to direct people to where or what they should be or be doing.
Why do you want to be a General Helper? I'd like to be a general helper for just that reason; to help. I know how hard it was when I first joined, always struggling to understand fair trades and not be cheated, never having any help with much, and being snapped at by the random people I'd ask for help. I actually considered leaving CS when I first got here because of that, and now that I understand CS and have been here a few years, I don't want people to have to feel like I did. I want to help them have a good time here <3

I have a question,
would you get a PM from the admins saying you've become a General Helper on the day they are picked?

[Darkest.Nation]

(I beleive that they would usually open a new thread with the winner's names, and then leave the thread open for comments for a short period of time.)

Plus I'm sure you'd be bound to notice your username is a different color.
