I try to be calm, even in stressful situations, don't get annoyed by being asked questions, and always try to be happy and easy to talk to
Why do you want to be a General Helper?
I love helping people, it is the one thing I need to do in my life. I have been around CS for over a year and feel that I understand it pretty well. I would be willing to answer any questions someone had about rarities, trading, forums, RPs, oekaki, or anything else they needed help with.

Thank you for your time and good luck to the others applying! :)

What date did you register as a CS member?: December 2nd, 2010 ^^
How many posts have you made in the forum (at the time of applying): I have made 1357 posts. May I just say that I am extremely more active in PM'S, But I always *browse* the forums. However if I became a general helper I would be posting left right and centre helping people *all* the time.

How many days a week do you usually visit CS? I am usually on every single day. Sometimes I am not well though, or I am at somewhere important I need to be, but even then I try my best to take my iPhone or iPad and log in there. ^^

How many hours per day do you usually spend on CS, on a day that you do visit? I'm usually on from when I come home, to when I go to sleep on school days. I would say *At least* around six hours, but a lot of the time usually more.

Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position: I don't really have any super high tech qualities that make me stand out from the rest, besides the fact that I Live And Breathe to make people *smile* and *helping* people. It's what I come here for. I love that really warm feeling I get you know? I am usually in a very positive mood and very patient. I do not mind explaining something over and over, it does not bother me one bit, and the satisfaction of helping someone at the end of all the work makes it feel much better anyway <3 I love helping people and being friendly. I am quite a good person to calm people down if they are in an argument.
I try my best to make people feel like they have gotten a virtual ''warm hug'' every time they speak to me.

In real life I have a kind of part time-ish job out side school working with a -''House Organisation's"- (I removed the name of the organisation for privacy purposes. When I first posted this I thought they were all over England, I admit to being a bit wrong. They just cover certain areas) 'Youth Forum'' (In england, they are an organization who make/own houses in brittan ) We go to events and in a few weeks when the website is finally all done (They are asking a web designer to design the forum as we type ^^) they will be put up on the ''Youth Forum'' site regularly. I have been asked to be a type of reporter there. I will go to events and write reviews on the events in the area I live. Alongside that we are constantly asking children questions on if the area is lacking something, or if they think the housing association could help. I have the ability to keep calm and patient with younger children, and basically everyone. (Even when a young child was whacking my leg over and over with a yoyo, I stayed calm and calmed him down until he stopped xD) Below is a picture of my ID Card I was given so I can show security and places when I Report events! ^^ I covered up my name and the housing organisation's name because I think that would be against CS rules :3 If you wish too see my full badge, in a PM or something, I would be glad to show you! That was of course directed strictly to the Mods and Owners of Chicken Smoothie and no one else Though xD) Also, I forgot to cover up the name of the housing association with paper when I took the photo, So I edited it out on my computer :3) ( OH, And When the date expires, I get a new one ^^):


I also babysit, as I love working with younger children, and people in general. I am also a prefect at school, and am the head Library moniter. I watch over the school library and make sure everything is fine. I Also play violin, which is an amazing instrument for teaching patience. You have to practice certain things over and over before they are perfected. I love helping people and watching them shine. In adition, last summer I went to a project named ''Chances'' which was a group ran to try and improve confidence skills. I am not not afraid to make a complete fool of myself and skip down the halls at school instead of walk. I am who I am, and I am an exploding ball of sunshine. I will go my own way! I'm not a sheep :3 (Surprise why I love little ones hey? xD) I guess the qualities I have gained and things I have learned from these two things are:
*Patience
*Team skills
*Cooperation
*The ability to calm people down
*Listening skills
*Knowing where a line is, and when it's about to be crossed.
*If first you don't succeed, try again.
*The ability to stay positive, even in stormy situations. The wind WILL blow over, its just a matter of when!
*Understand that things might be going on in peoples lives, don't be too harsh on people, yet don't let them walk all over you like a doormat. If you are put in charge of something, given a responsibility, This is key. Even towards your friends.
*The world isn't ending, SMILE.



Why do you want to be a General Helper?: This question must be the easiest for me to answer. I *Live* to help people I want to be a General Helper more then you can ever understand. I didn't think places would be available any time soon to be one, but it has. I want to be the cause of other peoples smiles, I want to be the person people go ''Thank you!'' to at the end of explaining something to them. I want to be the person people are *not* afraid to come to when they need a question. Even without being a general helper I really want people to know that my door is *always* open for them. And not just for CS reasons. Maybe they just need a chat to cheer them up, or a little pep talk. It's my dream for me to be known as that one person who is *always* there. For *anything*. The one people go. ''Oh, I know who i'll go to for this'' You don't understand how, when I have done something nice for someone on here, it makes me feel. Its how I want to /constantly/ feel twenty four seven. It makes my heart swell and it makes
me smile as wide as I could ever smile.

I also try my best to help people get there dreamies the best I can. I get CS regularly, so I send out PM'S to random users With ''Miss Sunshine'' (My pet mascot) who gives out 20CS in bunches. ( I usually do this with about 300CS but I'm giving out 80 at a giveaway this month so it will be 80 less to individual users wise) And again, thats because I *LOVE* The feeling I get from doing that!

Lastly, let me say how much my eyes would light up and sparkle if I saw my name in that nice light red, pinkish colour.
It really is my dream, Its like a twinkling star in space, It's so far away, But it looks so beautiful. I wish to just go up and grab it. It really is the colour I truly wish, and hope if not this time, that someday, My name will change.
I guess you could say I want it so much, It hurts a little >< <3

Thank you SO MUCH for doing this, and thank you so very much for listening to my form, I understand it must be so hard to read so many.

Lots of love,
~Seddie
THANK YOU, AND MAY THE SMILES BE WITH YOU! <3

6.Why do you want to be a General Helper?:
I love to help others. I recently guided a friend from another site their way through here, and I love to talk to new people. It brightens my day when someone PMs me asking how to do something and if I could help. I was pretty good at finding how to do things right when I joined CS. The rairty system, the forums, and a lot of other things there is to learn around here. So maybe I could pass on my little ways of how to learn things quick onto other members. Ever since I joined it's been a dream of mine to become a General Helper. It's like your job on here is to help others, and that's exactly what I want to do.

Thank you, Tess, for letting me try out to be a Gerneral Helper.

How many posts have you made in the forum (at the time of applying): 2404
How many days a week do you usually visit CS?: Every day unless I am going on holiday, however this isn't going to happen any time soon because I'm going back to school on the 21st.
How many hours per day do you usually spend on CS, on a day that you do visit?: At the moment its sometimes been a day, and sometimes about 6/7+ hours. But these will probably be cut slightly since I am, as I said, going back to school soon.
Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position (this is not required): I can handle things very maturely, however I can also be quite chatty whenever someone just wants to have a bit of a nag about their day and such. I'm good with the Oekaki and know the tools quite well as well (that's a bit confusing..).
Why do you want to be a General Helper?: Because I'd love to help others whenever I can, I don't feel good knowing that there are newbies on CS not really sure of what to do. Trust me, I remember all too well what it was like for me, but luckily I managed to find some people on CS and they helped me out alot. And I want to be like those people ^_^.

What date did you register as a CS member?
April 19th, 2011.

How many posts have you made in the forum (at the time of applying)?
2388 posts.

How many days a week do you usually visit CS?
I usually come at least 5 days a week (especially on weekends) in school time, and in summer vacations I come every day.

How many hours per day do you usually spend on CS, on a day that you do visit?
Usually I come here more than once in one day, so I'd say 5/6 hours a day in total. During school time, about 2/3 hours.

Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position?
I speak Portuguese (my first language), but I always try to use propper language when talking in English. I think I am pretty fair when judging a trade, and never send any unfair trades to anyone. Also, I know how to work entirely with Chibipaint Oekaki, and with other programs, such as Photoshop and Paint Tool SAI. I always try to answer to other members' questions, and if they don't get an answer good enough, I tell them to seek for more help (and now with the new help system it's much easier). I usually stay calm when someone is rude to me or others, and try to calm that person down (or call someone who can help).

Why do you want to be a General Helper?
I want to be a General Helper mainly because I love helping others, it's fun, and we are happy everytime we get helped, I like giving that feeling to others who need help! c:


Thank you so much for giving us this opportunity! Even if I don't get a colored name, I will gladly congratulate the new helpers! n__n

Application
● What date did you register as a CS member? : I joined on the 4th of Febuary 2011

● How many posts have you made in the forum (at the time of applying) : At the moment I have posted 1853 Posts in various forums.

● How many days a week do you usually visit CS? : When I can, it's everyday, although sometimes I'm occupied by other things, my friends comment CS is my life.

● How many hours per day do you usually spend on CS, on a day that you do visit? : Well, sometimes like I said, I have other things but I'm addicted to CS, and usually spend nearly all day and quite a lot of the night {Great Britain night and day time}. But that is mostly in my Weekend time or holidays. As I am going back to school soon and will be in Year 8 this makes less time for CS and regrettably more time for HomeWork, but I will still spend a good three or four hours on CS.

● Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position? : Well, one of my points is a good use of vocabulary, as some people use chat speak when talking to peers which, sometimes I find a little hard to understand, and I always write my words fully, with the exceptions of lol, omg, ott ect. I also find it easy talking to strangers and enjoy answering questions, many of my friends say I'm cheery or easy to talk to, so this will come in handy. I can also pretty much memorise every pets rarity and popularity, and am good with The Rares List. I am good with designs for Forum Posts, Trade Rules and Signatures. I also am good with fairness and am in no way racist, sexist, ect. I can also speak a fair amount of French and some Spanish.

● Why do you want to be a General Helper?: As I might have mentioned above, I love talking to people and am easy to talk to in return, I have a good amount of confidence so am not afraid to put what I think. Although I may be young, I have had some experience as a helper on another site and a site owner of a RP, so this helps and makes me even more keen. I think it'd be a great experience and opportunity but I bode well to all other players who want to be a General Helper and hope for the best!

Yours truly ; Jex x

Why do you want to be a General Helper?
I want to be a general helper, because I think it would be nice, to be able to help people on the site, when I already go on it often. I don't mind getting pms for help. And I would do the best job I possibly could. Thanks for considering me, and I wish luck to all

Every day of the week.

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

Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position
I can speak Spanish and Catalan fluently and I'm very confident with speaking Spanish with other players if they don't speak English too well and they need someone to understand their problem that they're having. I also try to help answer all of the questions that are to my knowledge on the forums. I do know a little about how the Oekaki works but not much since I only use it for coloring but I can try to help out as much as I can. I have a lot of knowledge on how a computer works and what the site needs for certain things to run. I also use Chicken Smoothie on a mobile device when I'm out and I know how it works on a mobile device for if anyone needs help on knowing how it works on one. I can say that I do know my rarities pretty well and I have helped a few people in some trades.

Why do you want to be a General Helper?
I want to be a General Helper because I love helping people out and I always stay calm in every situation. It makes me happy when I help people out or give them advice and making their time on Chicken Smoothie better and funner. I visit the CS Suggestions and Problems board a lot to see if I can help anyone there. I'm always open to PMs from other players even if it's just a question or if they need help with something that they don't understand.
