I know many things about the oekaki boards and how things work from there. I also[ know a lot about CS and adoptions/store. I know how to get CS cash and i love to help others in need.

Why do you want to be a General Helper?[color=#0000FF]Like I said above I want to hep people on CS and guide them to be better traders and members of CS. we all can then be a big happy community of Squidtopia! Instead of people leaving or getting upset when a bad trade keeps coming at them or a member gets them riled up over something so simple when yet they just joined and didn't know. I want to keep some of our first Squidtopians here on CS instead of leaving.

1. What date did you register as a CS member?: July 21st, 2010

2. How many posts have you made in the forum: 9196, well, actually 9197 with this post.

3. How many days a week do you usually visit CS?: Atleast six, usually I'm on CS everyday but sometimes I am a bit busy and can't go on everyday.

4. How many hours per day do you usually spend on CS, on a day that you do visit?: Two hours at the minimum, nine at the maximum and about six hours average. [ About 10:00 or 12:00- 9:30. With breaks and having to eat and some exercise and so on]

5. Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position (this is not required): Well, I know a lot about trading and what a lot of pets are worth and what is fair and whatnot. Although, I am uncertain when it comes to most of the Mains List pets do when it's mass trade for a rare/everytime rare or UR pet. I have some knowledge on the art tools in the Oekaki as my sister loves to draw and she tells me about some of the tools and what you can do. Not to mention I sometimes draw their. None of them quite as good as my sister's, though. :D[They burn to look at!]

6. Why do you want to be a General Helper?: From being a member of Chicken Smoothie for two years, I have learned many things that are helpful to other players, especially when it comes down to trading, demand, and rarities. I could be of some help to new members that are unsure or rarities and the careful art of trading in general.
I have always loved to help people out and I love getting PM's from people, even if I am not very aquainted with them. I will always be more than happy to help someone in need of assistance.

By the way/just incase you need to know: I have been warned twice, one because I had an gif that was a bit on the graphic side and the other for using a word that was the replacement of a swear word but still was very obvious on what it was. But this has helped me understand CS's rules better and what is okay here. (:

How many days a week do you usually visit CS?

7 days a week =)

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

I usually spend at least 4 hours whether it's on my computer or my phone

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

I have experience being a helpful peer over people younger than me while also helping those in my classes. In middle school I was what was called a W.E.B leader, which was responsible for mentoring and helping feel welcome a group of students younger than myself. My job entailed keeping up with them to make sure they were feeling welcome, answering any questions they had about any subject about the school, and explaining things in a fun way that wasn't confusing or overwhelming. I would also bring to the title General Helper a unique perspective for answering questions, and an ability to thoroughly explain multiple aspects of CS without adding unnecessary details. Not only this, but I am also quite friendly and helpful, and, since I have two younger siblings, am quite tolerant of any potential aggression or misunderstandings. I am also very knowledgeable about BBC coding that the forum posts use, so I can easily provide people with the necessary codes to do whatever function they desire =)

Why do you want to be a General Helper?

I want to be a General Helper for several reasons. For one, I love acclimating people to new environments and groups of people. I had my own tight-knit group of friends in my new high school because they introduced themselves to me and took the time to get to know me. I want to mirror their example and make newer users feel as welcome as I did when entering a new school. For another reason, I want to take a bigger roll in the community and be more social. For the past year I've suffered from social anxieties, but now that I'm taking medicine for it I feel much better and want to continue this positive experience by jumping into a more directly social role. Being a General Helper I feel would help me learn to interact better, while also helping other people to understand CS.

I do not want to be greedy or anything, do not get me wrong O_O But i tried to search my last post on here to edit my form, but i could not find it at all. So I just kinda wanted to repost here DX I hope you do not mind.

How many posts have you made in the forum: Altogether, 12632 posts; in a day, 29.17 posts.
How many days a week do you usually visit CS? 7 days ....everyday!
How many hours per day do you usually spend on CS, on a day that you do visit? At least an hour or two during the week, longer most of the time; unless i am very busy. During the weekend, I am ususally on for the same time, or if I am not busy, all day!
Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position? I find myself able to end some fights by just talking it out with people. I myself dislike fighting and arguing strongly, and I usually try squeezing out of them with talking and complete reason.
I love to help people, in RL or on here! I am very friendly and sweet towards users, even if they are being rude, and I love to help out Coppa'd, newbies, or even normal users on here! I am always happy to help out! It's just a thing for me!
I do not like bullies, and I do not put up with them treating others badly for too long. If they are too obnoxious to handle, I would report them, if they are just being rude, I'd talk to them. I have modded on different other websites, and I am the owner of one other website. I will answer questions from user to the best of my abilities, and I even welcome new people in the Introductions page most of the time! But i have not done it in a while because of how busy i have been...
I know how post tools and such work, but I unfortunately do not do too well with oekaki tools, when I only use some that I really need ^^
And on my clubs and RPs that I have made, I keep my rules enforced, and I make sure nobody breaks them.
Why do you want to be a General Helper?
It has been something that I have wanted to do since I joined the website! I thought that because of my love for helping people, my kindness towards users, and such! I had only had a couple flaws because of horrible attitude, but it changes quickly, and I always end up apologizing for my vulgar behavior. ^^ I am very considerate towards everyone, and I have never foed one person yet ^^ If I had gotten this position, now that I finally had been here long enough, it would be something that I would loyally stick to!
Thank you for considering my application! ♥

The posts don't show up in your posts or in the search ^^
You can type any word in the search function and it won't be found lol xD

How many days a week do you usually visit CS?
Typically everyday. Unless I'm uber busy.

How many hours per day do you usually spend on CS, on a day that you do visit?
I use to spend about 16-18 a day. But now that school is starting up tomorrow. It will go down to probably 5-6. I tend to get on in the mornings, to pass time until I must leave. And I get on a night, if I don't have homework.

Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position
I know how to work the oekaki. And have come quite familiar with it.
I've answered questions before, some of them were for the forum.
I am fairly patient, and I don't get angry unless its something thats directed towards me, or about me.
I know how to supply sympathy, and I know how to relate with others.
And I have fairly good writing skills, grammar, spelling, punctuation, ec.

Why do you want to be a General Helper?
I just love talking with others. And I want to help in anyway I can.
I'm nothing special. That I know. And there are probably a ton others just like me. c:
But being able to help the newbies, and answering their questions, its something I would just...adore doing. Even if it is temporary.
Once I became friends with Orchid Sprig, I've wanted to be like her. Kind. Courteous. And just fun to be around.

  7
  
• How many hours per day do you usually spend on CS, on a day that you do visit?
  I'm nearly always logged in when I'm on the computer and switch between this and a small handful of other tabs, however this is the site I spend the most time on.
  
• 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 speak enough Spanish to get by. I can read Spanish and I know the grammatical structure well enough to be able to piecemeal together an understanding of what's going on. I'm also a psychology major starting my fourth year of undergraduate study, and have a decent amount of experience in peer mediation. I'm not a trade-value expert, however I've been working to become more knowledgeable and intend to speak with some established trade experts in the near future concerning the parts of trading I'm still fuzzy on.
  
• Why do you want to be a General Helper?
  I love this website and the people on it. I like working with people, and I'd love to have the opportunity to work my way up into a Staff position.

Thank you for this opportunity, and the best of luck to everyone applying

2. How many posts have you made in the forum:
27,525
3.How many days a week do you usually visit CS?:
Seven. I tend to connect on a daily basis.
4.How many hours per day do you usually spend on CS, on a day that you do visit?:
As a minimum, I believe I tend to spend around two hours on the site. I sometimes (if not usually) extend this to three to five hours inbetween log ins.
5.Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position (this is not required):
I am fluent in Spanish as it is my mother tongue, I am pretty familiar with basic BBcoding as it is used in most of the websites I frequent, and while I am not perfect in rarity knowledge, I have slowly been catching on to what is worth what when it comes to trading. I have been on CS for a pretty long time now as well, and am very familiar with the rules as well as the different sub-forums on the site.
6.Why do you want to be a General Helper?:
I have gotten from time to time PMs asking me how to do certain things on the site or how to upload images, etc, and I have found I usually enjoy giving a lending hand to those who might need it. I am also plenty social, so being in the position of helping newer (and some older) members learn the ropes and get accustomed to the site so they soon feel comfortable and with a little more knowledge about CS would be a pleasing experience.

• Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position
  
  I can speak English of course, Japanese, and a bit of Spanish and French. I'm good resolving problems, always good under pressure, plus I have a nice detective mode X] As for questions and answers, I try to help people with art theft and stuff of that nature, but it's not always regular. In Oekaki I can work some tools, and I'm a computer geek so I will always found out how to work out things I don't know. I will admit that I have my moments, but mostly I'm a good people person and can relate with many users in ways that no one else can. I doubt this would be a skill, but I'm good at reviving moods and making people happy so there is that :3
  
• Why do you want to be a General Helper?
  
  Being a CS General Helper would be really swell and I know I could help to the best of my ability.
