How old are you? (this question is optional): 14 1/2, but pretty mature for my age.
You've been a member for how long: 'bout a year now
How much time do you spend on CS in the average day/week?: Oh a lot, maybe average 3-4 hours a day on a bad week 5 or six on a good, maybe even 8(O honestly have no life... X3 oh well it's fun on here). This is my main site I go to.
Do you feel you know CS well enough to answer all the common questions?: Oh totally! I've learned a lot of stuff here. It's the only site I actually feel comfortable with(I Dont/Cant really get in to the groove of other sites, I've tried many before)
Do you have the patience to deal with stupid questions being asked over and over?: oh yeah, I remember when we first figured out that Moonflights pets had secret messages on them. Everyone kept asking what it was, I PMed like 30 people and told them to make then happy.
Why do you want to be a newbie-helper?: I love seeing new people on CS but it can be pretty discouraging to stay on if you can figure out how to work the site(Trust me I know). So I think thats why so many newbies are quitting. But with this group showing them how to work around the site, and how it all works I think they'll be much more encouraged to stay up! Once their settled in I can check up on them too if they still don't get something. I also like to use pictures to show where to go(like take a screen picture).
Have you ever had moderating experience on any forums if so please post a link: no but first times a charm right?
Do you have any suggestions for the team name (instead of 'Newbie-Helper') xD ?: The New Crew (X3)

What a fantastic idea, Tess! It will be nice for newbies to get a tad more respect and be helped when they need it.

How old are you? (this question is optional): I'm 15.
You've been a member for how long: I've been around since Chicken Smoothie was still Silent Wolf Kennel or a name along those lines. So, what is that, June, July of 2008? If you mean member as in joined, when you opened that feature up to us.
How much time do you spend on CS in the average day/week?: Average day, at least an hour.Normally more, 2 or 3 is a good average. Week, I'm on at least once or twice a day to check on things. So pretty much every day.
Do you feel you know CS well enough to answer all the common questions?: Yes, I believe so. Like I said I've been around a while and know my way around with rules and advice and the likes.
Do you have the patience to deal with stupid questions being asked over and over?: I do. Not that any questions are stupid, every question deserves to be answered! It's like school, no question is a stupid one. And believe me, I know school. I tutor math and science to people of all ages, and you get some pretty crazy questions and people through the program. So, I'd say I've got the patience, especially when tutoring the younger children, sort of like newbies.
Why do you want to be a newbie-helper?: I like helping people. I'm a tad to polite for my own good, so why not put that into good use and help out my fellow ChickenSmoothie surfers? And since trades are slow for me, I need something o do while I wait.
Have you ever had moderating experience on any forums if so please post a link: Not really, I've been asked to mod a few proboard role play games and the likes, but Most die within a few months. I really just sort of help around and point out things when I can.
Do you have any suggestions for the team name (instead of 'Newbie-Helper') xD ?: Ummm, what about The Newbie Support Group or Cheerful Charlies. xD Kidding about the last one. I haven't really got any ideas, but if I think of something, I'll let you know.

You've been a member for how long: Since the middle of August, not that long.

Why do you want to be a newbie-helper?: Because I remember when I was a newbie, and was very confused. Someone helped me, and even sent me a PM when they saw I was the newest member. I can't remember who, and I accidentaly deleted the PM, but thank you whoever you are . Anyway, I want to help the new people, to enjoy CS fully, and not be one of the many who make an account, adopt some pets, then forget about it... I don't like it when people do that... Oh well!
