[RedAutumnLeaf]

What date did you register as a CS Member?
Although I was a guest on CS for a few months beforehand, I made an official account on June 7th, 2012.

How many posts have you made on the forum (at the time of applying)
I have made exactly 2991 posts.

How many days of the week do you usually visit CS?
I make sure to go on ChickenSmoothie every day of the week.

How many hours per day do you usually spend on CS, on a day that you do visit?
On the weekdays, I spend around 3-4 hours per day. On the weekends, I am able to spend around 5 hours.

Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position?
I have a lot of experience in helping people and offering assistance, and I just love to give people a hand. I an generally very good at dealing with arguments, and I make sure to understand both sides of the situation before jumping to a conclusion. Also, I try to be compassionate and fair when moving people in the right direction, without being mean or too forceful. Finally, I can speak basic French, and I an great at answering peer questions, especially about trading and pet values.

Why do you want to be a General Helper?
As I have already mentioned, I love helping people, no matter the case. Chicken Smoothie has helped me very much, and it has taught many things. I hope to be able to share what I have learned to help others on the site, especially those who are new and lost. I had a General Helper give me assistance when I was new to the site, and I want to return that favor to anyone who needs it. Even though I haven't been on the site for as long as some of the others, I feel that I have advanced so much with my knowledge of this website, even in my knowledge of pets and trading. Overall, I just want to be someone whom people will turn to when they're lost or need help, just as many have done for me.

Thank you so much for giving me a chance, and I thank you for your time, attention, and consideration. ^^

I speak the basics of a few other languages, but nothing too impressive, and I was trained in Peer Mediation as a child, but I am told to be level headed and fair; I don't wish to ever make anyone upset. I consider myself quite good in the knowledge of trading, and if I ever feel unsure, I'd know to check with others.
Why do you want to be a General Helper?
I love the buzz of helping people, of feeling that I made someone's day easier or better, and I remember how great it felt when people used to help me. I know not being a General Helper doesn't stop someone from being helpful, but to have people be able to easily find me to ask me something would be wonderful, and I'd love to help keep CS as friendly as possible.

How many days a week do you usually visit CS?
Everyday!

How many hours per day do you usually spend on CS, on a day that you do visit?
Since I am home-schooled I tend to be able to spend more time on CS. I spend between 7-10+ hours a day on CS.

Can you think of any particular skills you can bring to the position:
I can speak a bit of french, I've been learning for roughly 8 years. I'm also in the process of learning German. I have worked in the daycare business on and off, more as a helper there. So I am very good with kids and I love to teach and explain things. I am an easy-going person, friendly, and easy to get along with. I am very experienced with Oekaki also.

Why do you want to be a General Helper?
I have wanted to become a General Helper for a long time because I do enjoy helping. It is something I have always enjoyed and will continue to. Aiding in others isn't a chore for me, it helps me on a deeper level. Emotionally more so. To make people happy, and help them understand also fulfills my happiness. I try my hardest at any task that is given to me. So I will do the same if given the chance to help Chicken Smoothie's amazing community.

Why do you want to be a General Helper?
I want to be a General Helper to show my CS spirit, also because I am a person who doesn't brag or doesn't think low. I am fair and do not take sides, most of the time. I feel I should use my qualities to help around on CS.

How many posts have you made in the forum (at the time of applying): 10,600
How many days a week do you usually visit CS? 7
How many hours per day do you usually spend on CS, on a day that you do visit? On school nights, probably 2-3 but I usually lurk the forums during school and such. On weekends, most of the day.
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?) I've taken 2 years of spanish and am going to be taking a third year next semester.
I consider myself an Oekaki expert and I often help friends and answer questions about it when I see them. I've made 1295 Oekakis in total.
My experience in Adoptable Oekakis (such as JBD, Kiamaras, etc.) have helped me be able to peer mediate as well as just generally dealing with people.
I've got a Mac computer as well and have had to fix various Oekaki/java problems. Because of this, I'd be able to aid those having specific java/oekaki related problems. (as well as j-tablet and such)
Why do you want to be a General Helper? I spend a lot of time on CS to begin with and I think it'd be great to make more of a point towards my existence on the site. Besides just pleasure of course, I'd like to help it run as smoothly as possible. I do spend most of my time in the Oekaki boards and I think the position would be able to help me branch out more as well as help newer users get used to the site.

How many posts have you made in the forum (at the time of applying): 10444

How many days a week do you usually visit CS?: Usually every day, unless something comes up where I can't get access to the internet.

How many hours per day do you usually spend on CS, on a day that you do visit?: A few hours, more or less, depending on internet connection.

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?) I do speak limited spanish, and yes, I do have a lot of experience in peer mediation in both real life and the internet. As for trades, I know most of the rarities, and what I don't know, I can easily read Hekomi's 'Rare's List Guide'. Considering questions, I do answer them as honestly as possible whenever I do get them, although I don't browse the forums for questions people may be asking. I'll make an effort to change that, whether I get the general helper position or not.
I know a lot about chicken smoothie [ at least, that's what I consider, since I've been an active member for about three years ] so I have a good amount of knowledge on how it works.

Why do you want to be a General Helper? It would have to be because I've relied on this site through tough times of my life, and I've met so many people that have become good friends and I would like to continue that. Recently, I've known of a lot of drama to start up on CS, or starting on another site and spreading to CS, and I'd like to help change that. CS was obviously meant to be a family friendly site and it can't stay like that if there are users starting up inappropriate issues on a forum that was targeted as a children's site. I'd like to do my best to not only inform new and old members on how the site works, but to also keep it a safe place for younger members to be able to enjoy themselves and adopt pets and trade them without dealing with the drama that they could get dragged into.
