Read Me Read Before Applying/Commenting - Open!

Applications are Open
​

Your role as staff will be to ensure that the community remains welcoming and safe for everyone.
You will be expected to enforce the rules and the punishment guidelines.
You should be a positive influence in the community, as well as a good representation of what we expect from people in the community.

Spoiler: What will we assess

We expect our applicants to know the rules, express good behaviour as well as show consistant activity
When you apply, we will look into the below points -

• The Applicants Behaviour
  • Spamming binds
  • Any kind of discrimination or derogatory comments
  • Disrespectful or provocative behaviour towards others
  • Needlessly arguing
• Activity
  • Being staff will require you to remain active on the community
  • An inactive staff member is hardly staff at all, and takes up a place another applicant may be better fitting for
• Knowledge of Rules
  • We don't expect you to have the rules printed and stapled to your walls, but you should be able to stop, assess what is going on, check the rules and then act
• Application
  • Take due care and attention with your application. Make sure you have given any information that may help your case, and that you clearly have not rushed it.
  • If you are fresh to the community, then there is little point to applying. We need to know who you are, and how you act. If you joined last week, played for 4 days straight and apply, then it will be declined.

Once the voting has commenced, applicants will only be accepted if the vote is 66% positive or more.
