Staff Applications are now open

You may also recommend members for the position. Keep in mind though, these are simply an extra point for us to consider. This isn't a popularity contest and nobody will be promoted solely because they have many recommendations, nor will anyone not be promoted solely because they received zero or few recommendations. (100 posts are required to recommend)

Words of wisdom above.

I really think Gallows was being sarcastic, Jake. There's a lot of young people on this forum recently that have really good ideas and know a thing or two about leadership. Mods don't usually discourage certain people on purpose unless that person is really rude or something. And what do you mean now they're attacking your sexuality? They didn't even mention anything related to it.

@Gallows: Wow, only 51 people? I thought there would be a lot more people that submitted by now. I think some people are remembering that it's a job and not a prize, previously posted by another member.

While the position can be exciting, I think most members would like to enjoy not having to work and just chatting.

 

[BellGreen]

When I read Jake's post, I felt like my chance was pretty much blown. I stopped thinking about it for a couple minutes and I realize that little things can't discourage you. It's best to move on and try to accomplish your goals. It's common sense.

umm no he defs wasnt

 

[Midoriya]

If he wasn't, then that's a distorted way of thinking. Someone shouldn't just get to do something because they're old enough. And to say something like that could have been influenced that they already have the spot. When people get their hands on something first they tend to look down on others and discourage them just because they haven't made it yet.

 

[kittenrobotarmy]

Yeah, I think I'll just leave now....

 

[Jake]

I've asked Prof about it. A moderator saying such a thing is horrible. While he may have been trying to say it in a light way it's still rude to young members.

I feel ya.

you should see the rude message sockhead left on my bulletin board when he visited me in AC. I would post an image but it says the F-word and insults my sexuality

 

[BellGreen]

I just can't believe a mod will just go out there and ruin a lot of people's hopes including mine. I'm not letting one thing get to me though.

 

[kittenrobotarmy]

Even if we aren't picked, we still tried. That's what matters.

 

[Midoriya]

For all we know, they could be testing us. Maybe we're looking at this the wrong way, maybe not. Who knows.

I don't recall him saying anything about age--just that not everyone will be picked and he feels bad some people are getting their hopes up and that's understandable--I don't think 51 new mods would be very helpful.

 

[Jake]

I feel ya. this aint Oprah

 

[Midoriya]

Well of course they're not going to pick all 51. They only need mods to increase the mod to member ratio. If he was being sensitive, that's nice. But nobody should be over-looked because of their age.


EDIT: Let's be honest though. I don't think anyone has their hopes up right now. I don't have my hopes up. I just try to take advantage of mr. opportunity whenever it appears. If I don't get picked, I don't really mind. I don't think anyone is going to get upset that they weren't picked.

 

[Hamusuta]

1. Not really no
2. If you're already active and behave on the IRC, maybe. Otherwise, not necessarily.

Tina'd.

Not really relevant but kind of is but what happened to that shop operator new group thing or w/e that was in the application like 2 years ago and never happened? Did it get the Tina treatment?

I'LL HAVE YOU KNOW.
Tina is singing in 3 songs in 5x02 AND the episode title has her name in it.

But yeah I'll apply, I'm basically on this forum everyday anyway :3

 

[bittermeat]

I don't see why people are saying that everyone has a chance. There's a reason why there are applications; there are people who can do an effective job and there are those who can't. Simple as that.

I think everyone has a chance because they may start to learn that they can work but it's just my opinion. I see what you're saying though, not everyone has the patience.

 

[Hamusuta]

Ok I got halfway though the application and realized I have absolute no chance LOL.
But I am going to reccomend a certain someone >;3

And as I said, I don't recall him saying anything about anyone's age.

By age, he means how long someone has been on TBT.
