Title: Resource Board Staff


Manda - September 9, 2008 05:08 AM (GMT)
Name of Board: Synergy
Link to Board: Will be provided later...
Requested Position: Several explained below (all currently mod positions in different fields)
How many positions available: Several
Information: Synergy is a soon to be opening Resource Forum, offering help and information related to anything and everything a person might need to create their own website or forum, or to improve the quality of the graphics. Synergy will offer tutorials and documentation designed specifically to help members of all experience backgrounds, as well as classes for those who prefer a more hands-on approach to learning.

Synergy will offer:

    - documentations and tutorials
    - coding/forum classes
    - contests
    - graphic challenges
    - a skin gallery
    - pre-made rule sheets and plotting pages
    - a directory listing forums, sites, and blogs
    - Critiques section
    - Member-run advice sections
    - Graphic Shops
    - And much, much more.
It's still in the planning/creation phase, but we're anticipating opening on October 13th. This is a great opportunity for anyone who wants to get in on the action from the start.

The staff is broken down into four main teams:
    - Forum Team
    - Coding Team
    - Graphics Team
    - General Modding Staff
The first three teams (Forum, Coding, Graphics) are responsible for writing tutorials (at least until we get a sizable amount), providing help for members, taking part in discussion, providing critiques, etc in their respective areas. The general modding staff is in charge of keeping the directory up-to-date and doing standard mod procedures.

I'm looking for approximately 3 people for each team. I prefer to chat with anyone who applies before I make any decisions. I have both AIM (mandaemonium) and MSN (ariesness@gmail.com); feel free to add me on either.

Name you'd prefer to be called: Nda is fine. :]
Age: 20.
Contact Info: MSN (which you have) or PM.
Team(s) You're interested in: General Modding Staff.
Experience: I've been part of several sites that have lived and died, but these are the current ones that I'm part of:
RPG-D - Directory Mod.
24/7 - Admin, not quite open yet, so no link. =/
Why do you want to be staff on Synergy? I'd love to help you and the rest of your staff start up a successful Resource forum. After seeing your dedication towards RPG-D over the summer, I'd love to help you with your own site. And I have been looking for another resource community to make myself a part of, but I have yet to find one that I like. And in helping you with your site, I can be part of your forum, and still help out as part of the staff.
Why makes you right for Synergy? I feel that I have extensive knowledge about the Admin CP and Mod CP on InvisionFree. I also have a very organized personality, which would make me perfect for a moderator position, moving topics to their corresponding forums and making sure that members follow the rules.
Why should I choose you over other applicants? I am a very organized person. I like to have things neat and tidy, and when things are messy, I tend to attack it and straighten it out. I also have multi-mod experience, and dedication towards a select few websites. When I find a site I like, I don't just drop everything that I've worked hard on and join that one. I will provide equal dedication towards the sites I'm a part of.
Anything you want to show or tell me to prove how perfect you are for the job? Since I am applying for a general modding position, I can only show you what I've done here. ^^" If you're looking for anything else, please mention it. And if I'm not what you're looking for, then good luck with your site! I'll be sure to visit when it opens. :]

Experience:
well i haven't Admin-ed my own site in a while. though i was hoping of creating a resource forum. i actually have it sort-of set up, but i {as an individual} won't be able to run it myself. the link is here, if you want it. it's definately not much, yet. and maybe it'll be forever before it gets finished, but a girl can hope, riiiight? it's something i want to do, someday... somewhere over the rainbow. XD so maybe getting experience on your board can prepare me. XD and maybe i can meet someone who can teach me how to skin. o_o
other than that, i don't have any of the links to any of my waaay old and waaay dead rpgs. i've done everything from wolves to high school, so i have a broad range of experience and varied taste in the role play business. =)
Why do you want to be staff on Synergy?
like i mentioned before, i've definately been wishing i could make a resource forum, and since it doesn't seem like i'll be able to even do a half-way enough job, at the moment; i got to start somewhere right? and you seem to want to do the same general thing i do. and i think it could/would be fun, and i think i have something to offer.
What makes you right for Synergy?
not to copy Nda, but i'm a bit of an obsessive-compulsive organizer. i like everything the be the exact way i want it or that it's suppose to be. i'm extremely dedicated and ambitious. i like to know how to do everything. and i'm almost always willing to learn something new. i like to have fun. i'm talkative and friendly. and helpful. a not that this necassarilly applies, but i've been working at my job {at taco bell} for nearly four months now. and about a month ago i was informed that i'm being promoted to manager. =) i think that says something, right? i'm a leader, but i know how to follow instructions. and blah blah blah. =D
Why should I choose you over other applicants?
i've admin-ed many sites of my own sites and i can spend several hours advertising if i feel like it. i know how to use the admin and mod cp. and all those other things that i stated above. i'm not dedicated to any websites at the moment. well, aside from some resource/graphic sites. i can't dedicate my life to the board, but i can get on for at least 10hrs a week. and because i'm awesome and crazy and would reaaaaallly appreciate it. =D

Team(s) You're interested in:
Forum Team, General Team

Experience:
Well there's one in my signature, so I won't repeat that one.
This is a graphic site I currently co-own
This is a site that I own right now

Why do you want to be staff on Synergy?
Well, I'm currently a part of a site similar to the ide you have going, and I rather like being a part of a site with resources. I've recently been learning how to use Photoshop again, and I've learned quite a lot. A lot of the sites I've checked out don't really provide enough help, and I would like to provide help to people, and share the knowledge that I currently hold right now.

Why makes you right for Synergy?
I'm a friendly person, and get along with people quite easily. Although school does keep me away for 4 hours a day, I usually spend a good 10 hours a day online, and that's usually taking care of my sites, or chatting with friends. Anyways, I believe I'm right for this site because I not only know what it feels like trying to find things to help you learn stuff, but I also know how to run sites on both ProBoards and IF.

Why should I choose you over other applicants?
I'm a nice person, and I would try my absolute best to make sure that Synergy would take off.

Anything you want to show or tell me to prove how perfect you are for the job?
If you take notice to the skin of the site I posted above, the one that I own, I designed the skin myself. I've also done two templates, which I can provide links of to you if you'd like. I'd rather not share them on here yet due to the fact that I had one stolen from me once. I believe that reason is understandable, or at least I hope it is.

I've also done a few requests before for rule sheets, and a couple of plotting pages, so I wouldn't mind trying for those as well.

Name you'd prefer to be called: Cer
Age: 21
Contact Info: AIM - logica absurda or PM on here
Team(s) You're interested in: Forum Team
Experience:
I've created many, many boards in the past, and extensive admin/mod experience, etc

reckless abandon, a site I created, coded, did graphics for, wrote rules/app/forms, etc

I don't have a guest-friendly link to any plot pages I've made, but I make them too :D

Why do you want to be staff on Synergy?
Resource boards have done amazing things for me in the past, and I'd love to be able to help people with that in the future. I've considered making my own resource community (specifically for plot pages), but I just don't have the time or stamina to take care of something myself.

Why makes you right for Synergy?
I take direction very well. I can be a follower and a leader at the same time, which I think is sort of rare in the average person. I have opinions, but I can set them aside for the 'greater good' if necessary.

I know more about HTML than I should, but that doesn't really apply to InvisionFree stuff... BUT I do know just as much about CSS which certainly is relevant.

Why should I choose you over other applicants?
I always hate these kinds of questions, because I hate bragging about myself. I also hate to take opportunities away from other people.

BUT, I'm a worthy applicant because I'm extremely friendly, naturally helpful, and always patient and willing to hear our problems. I'm an excellent listener and am usually the ones my friends come to for advice.

I have a lot of free time, though I do go to school and have work. I'm online every. single. day. Usually from 4:30 pm to 1 am (sometimes 2) weekdays and nearly all day on weekends. Only exception is when I go visit my boyfriend or he's in town visiting me. Even then I generally find time to get online.

I organize like a mad woman. I'm planning on being a Stage Manager, and anyone that understands what that is will know how organized I have to be. I love doing those annoying little organization tasks on forums, love making lists/forms/etc, and just in general enjoy the work of a mod. I'd love to be the person to keep lists up-to-date.

I also love talking to people, so being part of discussions/giving help would be no problem at all.

Anything you want to show or tell me to prove how perfect you are for the job?

I provided a like above, and I wish I had more to show. I'll just use this space to say that I really would LOVE to be a part of your team, and hope you'll consider me! I can provide any extra information you need from me via AIM or PM :D

Manda - September 11, 2008 03:16 PM (GMT)
Thanks for applying! I'll try to chat with everyone sometime today or tomorrow. =]

Oh, and anyone else who is interested, you can still apply. I'll be accepting applications for a few more days.

And Happy Birthday Candy!!
