How many days a week do you usually visit CS? Every day i can. Most days I will be on about 8 hours a day. (yes, I am a chicken smoothie addict.) But some days I may be on vacation, and during school I might only be able to be on 4 hours. In some locations i go on vacation, i have no internet access.

How many hours per day do you usually spend on CS, on a day that you do visit? Like above, during summer I can be on from 1 hours to 8 hours. During school i may be only on from 1 hour to 4 hours. I visit my grandparents a lot and i cannot bring my laptop, so i use my cousins. Sometimes he doesn't have his laptop so that might be a problem. I mostly am on CS every day that i can be. I recently found a new website that i played on for a long time but it got boring and I'm sticking with CS.

Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position? Well, i have been a mini-mod on many role plays, and art shops. On Vampicorn's art shop I answer many questions on there too. I also speak fluent Spanish and some French. I jut have never posted in any of those languages.

Why do you want to be a General Helper? Well, last time i auditioned for a General Helper (Or Moderator I don't remember.) I was sad because I wasn't on chicken smoothie for long enough. I love to help people out, and i PM people that need help, I have sent PM's to newer users (that were not COPPA'd of course) explaining them about chicken smoothie. I think that i am a nice person, and being a Staff Member for one of my favorite websites, chicken smoothie (I also play "Roblox") it would mean the world to me. I know i have less of a chance because i am not from '09 or '08 and only from '11. I think i have much experience, and that i could be able to do the job. But whatever the case, i think it is amazing that you are letting people have the chance to be a part of the CS staff.

~Yours truly,

I'd have to check ^^"
Edit: 2596

How many days a week do you usually visit CS?:
I usually visit CS 7 days a week. Unless I'm really busy with tests or on vacation if course.

How many hours per day do you usually spend on CS, on a day that you do visit?:
2-6 hours, depending on which day it is. On weekends I might even be on 8 hours+.

Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position?:
Well, apart from English I'm fluent in German and Polish, and am currently learning French, though I wouldn't really rely on my French skills, I'm not that good at it ^^"

Why do you want to be a General Helper?:
Well, I just love helping others and cheering them up, be it through a nice PM when I see them ranting on the Things That Annoy You Thread, or answering a question. I usually only send out PMs though, since I love to talk to others others and that wouldn't be possible on a thread. I want to be a General Helper because, even though I already help, I feel that through a colored name I'll just reach more people. I know for a fact that members that somehow stick out are always more easily noticed than "regular" members. I just want to help as many people as possible and I think I can only achieve that through being a General Helper. Besides, I bet I'd get to know new people, and I love finding new friends c:

Ever since I joined first, I've admired the Genral Helpers the most. They do so much for CS, just as much - if not even more - as the mods. And they do it all for free. I've had the pleasure to talk to a few General Helpers before, they're really nice people and I'd love to be one of them. To be honest, I've been waiting for this opportunity for a really long time, my biggest goal was always to be a General Helper and help others out. And it still is.

I have a question: How long is "long ago"? I'm not really sure if commenting a bit harshly on a rant is considered fighting? It happened months ago, but I wanted to make sure :3

As of now, I've made 4,293 posts on the forms.

How many days a week do you usually visit CS?

I visit CS on a daily basis, it's my community full of my friends. I can commonly be found online, as I enjoy spending time with other CS users online.

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

Hmmm, now that's a difficult question. Usually I spend most of my afternoon/evening on CS after coming home from school. On weekends I stay up a bit later and generally stay on all day. So... I'd say and average of 4-5 hours perhaps? I'm not quite sure as I loose track of time. ^u^

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

♠ I know a TON about CS and I can answer pretty much any question you can throw at me.

♠ I can speak quite a bit of Spanish and some French. I'm not exactly the best, but I can generally get the gist of what people are saying in those two languages.

♠ I've been a member of CS so long that trade value is practically my bible, so I do consider myself to be very trade-literate as far as values go.

♠ I try to answer questions if I see one arise, but I don't do so often. I would like to get more into that section of the forums, which is part of the reason I'm applying.

♠ I LOVE oekaki, as I post there regularly and have explained it to my friends I think I'm pretty adequate with the tools and such.

Why do you want to be a General Helper?

Where to start...?

I want to be a general helper so I can meet new people and help them out any way I can! I found myself explaining the works and ways of CS to my friends, and helping them with CS caused them to be much more frequent users. It made them happier and I certainly enjoyed seeing them enjoy CS the way I did. I want to help others enter the Chicken Smoothie community, because it's just a wonderful place. I personally just want to help everyone out in any way I can. My friends generally confide in me for assistance, and I feel that helping with CS would bring a lot more users to the already growing society we now call Chicken Smoothie.

I'd also like to expand my horizons as far as the forms go, prowling around new forms such as the Q+A board would help me meet new people. I find myself to be a social creature, and I just love to chill with others and help out. I just want to pass the information I've gathered on to those who need it. Being here on CS, it makes me feel welcome. I'd just like other's to experience the feeling that I have, for other's to have fun make friends and become members of our community, it's just a wonderful thought y'know?

I'm also trying out for this position to support a friend of mine who wouldn't try if I didn't. I was going to anyways, but to be quite honest she's much more qualified then me. I may not know her very well, but she's a kind individual who'd help anyone in need. I really think she'll become one of your helpers, and I hope to be one myself as well.

To keep this short, I want to be one simply so I can assist the staff and make new friends.

What date did you register as a CS member?:
I registered on November 27th 2011, at 5 A.M. on a Sunday morning. I've been told on a thread that I am eligible to enter but feel free to dispose of my form if I am not.
How many posts have you made in the forum
At the time that this form is being submitted; I have completed 7,283 posts. Not including this form.
How many days a week do you usually visit CS?
I normally visit every week. I always love checking to see if I have new trades or if for whatever reason my help is needed.
How many hours per day do you usually spend on CS, on a day that you do visit?
A majority of my day is spent on this site, I usually always have about one or two tabs open consisting of Chicken Smoothie. I get teased by my fellow family members about how much time I spend on here. It really doesn't bother me though.
Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position
Well, I used to be fluent in German, my skills in that language are a little rusty though. I took a little bit of Spanish in High school and 8th grade so I have a grip on the basics in it. I depict my self as wise with rarities, I just choose to over pay on the things that I would like the most but I'm aware of the rares list and I have a friend who I can always ask if I'm having trouble with it. I also know my basic rarities such as the three month rule and such. I'm a little rusty on Okekaki but it's a little similar to the art program I use and I know the basics of it. I wouldn't be able to create something that was feature worthy but I could make something decent I had the desire and muse to draw. I mostly do anything artistic on a program called Paint Tool Sai, I've been using it for about a year now and I'm very familiar with it. I may not seem like it but I'm a very patient person who is understanding under responsibility but yet I can get the point across without being overly nice. That doesn't mean I snap at everyone. I hope it doesn't look like I do because I have no intentions whatsoever to be rude to anyone.
Why do you want to be a General Helper?
You may be able to see on the 'Adopt a Newbie' thread that I've applied there before, because I had intentions on helping. Unfortunately the newer user I as assigned never needed my help so I'm back on the waiting list to give my advise to someone else who needs it. Actually, this isn't a farce but, the general helper is the role that I've wanted the most. There's no way for me to 'abuse a mod power' but I'd still be contributing my share into the CS society. That doesn't mean that I would abuse my powers if I was a mod but it's just a precaution just in care, per example, my brother or sister(s) had figured out my new password and decided to be unreasonable and ban people for little to no reason. I doubt they'd be able to figure out my password but still, just in case. Or if something was my fault, I wouldn't want to give someone a warning for no reason.

1. What date did you register as a CS member?: I registered December 2010; almost two years of CS! Whoo!
2. How many posts have you made in the forum (at the time of applying): Wow..... 8791..... I'm that into it? o.0
3. How many days a week do you usually visit CS? Uh, daily?! I get on whenever you leave me alone with a computer and internet! That loving of CS!
4. How many hours per day do you usually spend on CS, on a day that you do visit? It varies a ton, but I regulary get an hour at least of time that is constant and unbroken; but a daily average of 2 hours. But, as I have said, I will sneak on whenever I get a chance, so it totals anywhere from an hour to 8 hours a day depending on when!
5. Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position (this is not required) Yes! a good chunk of my time goes to working out issues with friends and aquaintences, so I can settle arguements fairly fast as a peer mediator. I also have quite a lot of oekaki and posting experience, so I know many ways to deal with/create these easily and efficiently. I do spend regular time with newbies who have questions and help answer their predicaments fast and smoothly; I have even typed up a little guide for my use when a newb comes to me with questions about something in the basics of posting images/other stuff! In addition, trading is a huge passion of mine ever since I joined, so I know most there is about trading and fairness and give advice on a regular basis as to trades. Finally I do spend time sometimes answering questions on the help board.
6. Why do you want to be a General Helper? You ask why? Well, is that a trick question?! Once I began getting into the groove of CS, I began to see all these other people struggling like I first did. I began to help them in any way I could; random gifts, welcoming them and offering my trade and posting advice when they needed it, even showing them how to get more pets and how to make art in the forums. Helping them was so thrilling and brought me such joy I even made a gifting center, where half the people I gift today are newbies. I am applying because others tend not to see me as a source of information or help which I really want to be and am, so getting this postition I think will help others know I am here to help and I WANT to help them! It sounds a little selfish, I know, but that is all I desire; to help others as often and plentifully as possible in their first steps. Not the publicity added, not the little orange name, only the help that is promised behind that colored name.

October 2, 2011 at 8:28. It might not seem like a while ago, but I know CS very well.

How many posts have you made in the forum (at the time of applying):

I have made 3058 posts, in counting. I post all the time, roleplays, adoptables, you name it.

How many days a week do you usually visit CS?

Every single day. I can't live if I don't check CS, it became a need for me. It bugs me whenever I don't check CS.

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

I spend about 4-5 hours a day.

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

I do speak a little Spanish, and I hope that helps. I'm actually pretty good at it too. I know the Oekaki very well, making many pieces of artwork a day. I can help anybody that needs it. I've also been a Moderator for many adoptables and others on this site, so I have experience with helping others.

Why do you want to be a General Helper?

One of my largest strengths is helping. I always am happy to help someone in need, even if they ask 10 questions at once. Oekaki questions are my biggest strength, I get many questions a day about that. A General Helper would be a huge deal for me, (me being someone who loves to help and make people happy, and always wanted their name color changed, haha.) I would take this job very seriously. I check the help sections a lot, trying to do the best I can to help others. I would like to apply for the 'Adopt a newbie' thread, but it seems that it's always a huge line for the waiting list. I'll have to try my best. It would be a huge honor to have this job nd I look forward to the results

How many days a week do you usually visit CS? Almost everyday, depending on whats going on with the family and work schedule.
How many hours per day do you usually spend on CS, on a day that you do visit? About 2-3
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? Do you know how all the tools/options in the oekaki work?) I know a little bit of Spanish and Italian (not enough to have a convo, lol) but i it comes to needing Italian translation I can get it done. I'm also pretty familiar with the oekaki buttons even if my comp won't run oekaki right now. :3
Why do you want to be a General Helper? I like to help people, and this seems like a perfect way to do that. Also, I don't do a lot on CS other than hoard loads of pets and draw when my computer is acting right.After the WoI got their own forum I've been pretty much just lurking lately and I would LOVE to get more active, especially since my first CS-Anniversary is coming up in about ten days.

How many posts have you made in the forum (at the time of applying): 1596 Posts, 1597 including this one ^^

How many days a week do you usually visit CS? Everyday, unless I am on Holiday, if I am on Holiday abroad then I will spend about 4 Days a week Online ^^

How many hours per day do you usually spend on CS, on a day that you do visit? I spend at least 6 Hours a Day on CS, whether I'm Home or not ^^

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? Well, I can speak some French, and I know the Rare List almost off by Heart now (I know it's not accurate, but it's a rough idea right?) Also, I do know my way around Chicken Smoothie very well, it's like my Online Home :3

Do you already answer a lot of questions in the forum? Do you know how all the tools/options in the oekaki work?) Well, I usually don't ask many Questions since I'm used to CS right now, and I do have some Oekaki Experience, and I pretty much know how to use all the Tools even though my Oekaki isn't the Best Quality, there's just a few that I'm a little fuzzy about since I haven't done that much Art, but I can find out right? If I see any Question, I'll try my best to answer it, even if it's not on a Topic I made, I love helping people, I'd feel guilty if I didn't, even if I didn't know the answer, I can't resist, since I remember when I was clueless on this Site, and I couldn't find anyone to help me because I didn't know who the General Helper's were, and I don't want our fellow Chicken Smoothians to be as confused as I was, and now that I know my way around Chicken Smoothie, I want to make sure everyone else knows they're way around Chicken Smoothie too ^^

Why do you want to be a General Helper? I would like to be a General Helper because, I do have quite a lot of experience helping our Fellow Chicken Smoothians, whether they ask about Trades, Rarity, or even just how to get a Missing Outcome, E.g. The July/August Lion. When I am asked any Questions of any kind, I can usually answer them, and if not, I soon find out the answer so I can help that person have a better experience on Chicken Smoothie, and I do look at the CS Board for Suggestions and Help quite often, so I can have a look at who needs help and what they need help with whether the Question is little or big, I like to help. Furthermore, I see that you are looking for someone who isn't rude to other players right? Well I'm glad that's a Rule, not only because I'm entering this Audition, but because, it's not nice for anyone on Chicken Smoothie (Staff or not) to be rude to other players. Chicken Smoothie is for fun, not rudeness/arguments. I am the type of person who will stay calm, I don't really get into any Arguments or anything on Chicken Smoothie, but even in reality I'm calm in an Argument ^^ I don't want to be a Helper because my Name will be Coloured, I want to be a Helper to actually help people for real, so people will know who to come to when they want an answer to something, and not just ask a person who they randomly click on at the Forum Page and hope they know the answer, I want to be more than that, and here's my chance :D
