How many days a week do you usually visit CS?: 7, I'm on for hours every day

How many hours per day do you usually spend on CS, on a day that you do visit?: 3-4

Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position (this is not required) I know how oekaki works, so I could help with that. I'm also very experience with trading, and I can answer many trading questions. Over the summer, I have volunteered at boys and girls clubs in my community, so I have experience taking care of younger people, which I think would help me around the forums with the amount of younger children on here. I often help people around the forums, be it in the problems board or just anywhere I see someone in need. I do know some basic Spanish too ^^

Why do you want to be a General Helper?: I've been a member on here for three years, and I would love to finally be able to give back to the forums. I've helped people many times before, I even occasionally get pm's from people asking for help or asking to have things explained to them. I've messaged people who are upset many times before on the "Things that annoy you" thread and "The Comfort Corner" and cheered them up (: I'm on every single day, for hours a day, so I think I would be good to have on the team. I've been here for years, and I know the site like the back of my hand. I genuinely care about the people on this forum, and I would love to have an opportunity to put myself out there to help people in need!

Thank you for giving this opportunity to try out :)

How many days a week do you usually visit CS?: I'm on Chicken Smoothie nearly every single day. The only times that I may not be on is if I am seriously sick, or injured. Even then though, I should be able to get on every day.
How many hours per day do you usually spend on CS, on a day that you do visit?: I'm on quite a lot, and not just for two hours at a time. I might be on for three or so in the mornings, then four in the afternoon later. I'm usually on for a good five hours per day though.
Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position: My cousin recently joined, and she was having troubles with the site. I guided her through the whole thing. I've also directed her to use the help system, since her COPPA hadn't been fixed even after her 13th birthday. I am very familiar with Oekaki, and would love to share my knowledge with other people so they can learn to use the program properly, and to its full extent.
Why do you want to be a General Helper?: I'm very familiar with everything on this site, and I would absolutely love to be able to help people learn to use everything properly, or just to answer questions on a regular basis. I know quite a lot about CS, and would love to volunteer around here. I understand that if selected, I won't be part of the staff, and I won't get payed for this. That's why it's called volunteering. I will be patient with the people that come to me, and respectful of staff and members alike.

How many days a week do you usually visit CS? Every day.
How many hours per day do you usually spend on CS, on a day that you do visit? I'd say 6, at the least.
Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position? As a staff member on other sites, I have a fairly good bit of experience at answering questions and helping out others. I enjoy knowing I can help others to understand as well as I can. I'm good at decoding things like chatspeak. As a student leader in marching band for the past two years, I've had experience in helping people get over their fights and better get along, as well as help the newer members to learn. :]
Why do you want to be a General Helper? I'd love to help out around CS. I see lots of questions in the numerous boards and such, and I want to be able to really help others. I believe it would be a very good experience!

5.Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position (this is not required): I can speak a little bit of French, Spanish and German. In school I was on the School Counsil, Peer Mediation Group, Safety Patrol, and Many advanced classes. I was given the leadership award in 4-H and hold the Officer Soace of Vice President. I am really good with younger kids and also with older people as well. I am very good in roleplays, using the Oekaki and trading. I understand rarities and how to trade correctly.
6.Why do you want to be a General Helper?

I want to be a Helper, because I've seen how hard it is when you first join to get around. If you find someone who will help you out it's the best thing in the world. When I needed some help I would contact Spotty, and she would always help me find my way around CS. I want to be a helper like her to help the younger kids, and the confused players out.

What date did you register as a CS member?:

July 21st, 2010.

How many posts have you made in the forum?:

11636, not including now.

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

I spend quite a lot of time here, really; around 2-3 hours+ in a day, and pretty much everyday unless something comes up. But normally I'm on quite often. :3

Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position?:

I like to draw digitally, and before I've had all of my Oekaki deleted (I didn't like them too much) I used the tools often, as well as I have quite a few friends to reference on here for the tools and other options. I also enjoy to code things, and I am currently learning HTML codes. My father has worked with computers even before I was born, so naturally I was able to adjust to them and I know a lot about Windows operating systems. I don't know if things like having a deviantArt or having a Tumblr helps with this position, but I thought that adding them in might be a nice addition.

Why do you want to be a General Helper?:

I want to be a General Helper, not for just the coloured name, some people applying will do it just for the colored name, but I don't think that's right. I want to help out and have a name to direct new members to and maybe even old members or anyone with a question or a problem that has to do with any of my expertise. I've been looking for somewhere to use my HTML coding and Windows knowledge and the knowledge of Chicken Smoothie to help other members out. I would love if you chose me to be in this position, it would help to ease my boredom and be able to use my skills somehwere!! :3 Thanks so much!!

How many days a week do you usually visit CS?
7, occasionally six.
How many hours per day do you usually spend on CS, on a day that you do visit?
2 1/2 hours at least. I am ashamed to say it, but some days I spend up to six hours... Yeah those are the summer days.
Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position (this is not required):
Well, based on your examples, I know a thing or two on trade values (not expert, though). I have lots of experience with the oekaki tools, I think I know just about everything, including changing the layer options. Also, I already try to help newbies, such as those who only adopt one of a pet. I only started that sort of recently, but whatever. c;
Why do you want to be a General Helper?:
I simply want to help my favorite site on the web. <3 It's truly amazing, and a couple years ago, when I'd ask the "Newbie Helpers" as they were called then, I'd always get back a friendly, helpful answer. I want to be one of those people, always giving back to the community. c:
Also, the colored name is so pretty. x3
