How long have you been a member on CS?: Joined early October, 2008.
How often can you come on the CS forums?: Almost every day, unless I'm on vacation somewhere. I will tell how long I will be gone, and during my trip I'll try to get to a computer to get on to check everything xD
How much time do you usually spend on CS in an average day or week?: I usually go on every day, ranging from 2 hours to 4 hours. On some occasions I'll be on longer. It just depends on what I am doing xD
Have you ever been a moderator on any other sites, if so please link to them: No, but I have the brain for html and forums codes xD
Why do you want to be a moderator here?: I'm very helpful, and know HTML and forum codes very well. I have already designed several sites for my family and friends, and I'll be able to reply to any help messages that people need about the site. I've been on here for a while, and have been on long enough to know the tactics and guidelines to ChickenSmoothie. I'm a very up-to-date person, and will be willing to help anyone in need. Also if anyone is being rude or disrespectful, I will give them a warning. But if they do it again then I will write their name down and report it to you and Nick.
Any other comments?: Nothing much, besides the fact that I've been trying to get my friends to join this site. It's my favorite site on the web ^-^
Around what age are you?: 15-16 (just turned 16 xD)
What country are you from?: USA (Pacific Time)

OPTIONAL QUESTIONS:
What country are you from?: America, PST time.
Around what age are you? 14 or under ^^; I'm 13, but that doesn't mean I act like one.

COMPULSORY QUESTIONS
How long have you been a member on CS?: About 6 months, since November 25th.
How often can you come on the CS forums?: Pretty much every day, for as long as I can be on the computer [which is around 4, 5 hours on average] Over the summer however...that number might increase. By a lot.
How much time do you usually spend on CS in an average day or week?: Roughly...35-45 hours a week, although, like I said, that number will most likely be a lot higher in the summer.
Have you ever been a moderator on any other sites, if so please link to them: I won't lie: I haven't had much experience as a mod. xD I've been a moderator in my guild on Maple story..xD And on a few xat chats here and there, including CS chat, where I got most of my 'mod experience' from. But other than that, no.
Why do you want to be a moderator here?: Because helping out is one of the best things to do in life. :] And I know what you're talking about, Tess, with the stress of being a mod. xD On CS chat when everyone wanted to be a mod, thinking that it's so cool to kick/ban noobs, while it was also pretty annoying when peeps kept asking why they were kicked. Benefits? Meh, I don't even know what they are. xD I just want to be able to lend an extra hand..[or two :p] The things you, Nick, and all the other staff do for this website is amazing, and look how much it has evolved due to all the sacrifices you've made for it! In fact, I feel a bit guilty...why should you guys feel all the pain while we're the only ones who reap the benefits? I want to make those sacrifices along with you. I go on to pretty much every single board, checking all the new posts in most of front page's topics [Er...not many of the RP threads though. xD]; I can tell when a person hasn't been following the rules. I haven't had any forum warnings, and I know how CS works pretty well. And despite my age, I act as mature as possible, although that doesn't mean I don't like to have a fun time. xD Those members...they things they say..they make me so angry sometimes at the things they do..Stopping them and making people feel better is what I want to do. I love CS, and since it's given so much to me, I want to return that favor to others and have them feel the same way as I do. <3 And honestly, I'm not the oldest member out there, nor do I go on for the longest amount of time, but it never hurts to try. :3
Any other comments?: Hm...not that I know of. :3 Although...thank you for reading through this applicationg and thinking about it. ^^ And this is a great idea Tess, I've seen places that have RAFFLES for mod positions. xD Oh and, good luck at uni. :>

And that most definitely wasn't. :? I'm certain Tess will judge people on their own merits, we don't need to reduce this thread to petty arguments. I think it best it's just kept on topic, there will be enough posts for her to go through as it is.

I agree. Look, thelazyone, trying to poke holes in other people's applications is petty and frankly ridiculous. I noticed you applied as well so please, just try your best and keep your nasty comments about others to yourself. In my eyes at least you have set yourself down a notch.

OPTIONAL QUESTIONS:
What country are you from?: USA
Around what age are you? 18


COMPULSORY QUESTIONS
How long have you been a member on CS?: Since October 08

How often can you come on the CS forums?: Just about every day. Sometimes more than once a day.

How much time do you usually spend on CS in an average day or week?: Per day it’s probably somewhere around 2-3 hours. If I’ve got homework I’ve got to do on the computer, I’m usually on CS at the same time. XD

Have you ever been a moderator on any other sites, if so please link to them: No.

Why do you want to be a moderator here?: Probably everybody who answers this says something along these lines, but I love this site so much and it would be amazing to be able to give back. It’s one of my very favorite places to hang out on the web. It makes me feel good to be able to help somebody by answering a question or something. I hate to see people being mean to others or breaking rules. Also, I’ve started making art for people and almost made some for an art thief before I learned who they were. Now art theft has become a big issue to me. I want to be able to do whatever I can to stop art thieves from stealing. Art thieves aren’t the only ones I want to keep from breaking the rules, but they’re the ones in particular.

Any other comments?: Since you’re wanting honesty, I did get a forum warning once because I posted a forum directed to one person. I can’t believe I didn’t realize that was against the rules, but looking back at it now it’s a no-brainer. Also, I can be tough when I need to be and I’m not a pushover. But normally I’m nice and friendly and get along with the other members. Sometimes a mean comment will sting for a bit, but thanks to my writing and sometimes getting critical or even mean reviews on a story, I’ve gotten a thicker skin from it.

Pet's name: Julie

I'm falling even more in love with you
Letting go of all I've held onto
I'm standing here until you make me move
I'm hanging by a moment here with you
I'm living for the only thing I know
I'm running and not quite sure where to go
And I don't know what I'm diving into
Just hanging by a moment here with you

Every day I spend with you is like magic. <3
