IeatWindex Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 Haha, how much of a chance do I have of becoming a moderator? :lol: Ah, what the hell. I'll send an application since all the cool kids are doing it. ;) Oh my god thankyou, now I know im cool 8-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tripsis Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 I've been waiting for this so much!! So, if you have good reaons for becoming a mod, and have a good forum history behavior wise, and have been a member for a while, there is a good chance for being considered? Man, I'll blow up in joy if I can become a Mod. If you have everything that you mentioned, you will for sure be considered. But whether or not you have a good chance of being ACCEPTED mostly depends on how many people fulfill the criteria that you mentioned. If there are 100 people who have good reasons for becoming a moderator, good forum behavior, have been a member for a while, are helpful and kind to all users, etc., then you don't necessarily have a good chance of being a moderator because only like 5-10 (no idea how many the admins are picking) will be accepted anyway. Does that make sense? But it's hard to come up with solid numbers for things like this when every case is judged differently and there are so many factors to consider. - 99 fletching | 99 thieving | 99 construction | 99 herblore | 99 smithing | 99 woodcutting - - 99 runecrafting - 99 prayer - 125 combat - 95 farming - - Blog - DeviantART - Book Reviews & Blog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shin Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Hi, I just sent an application, however I don't think it filed through. It's still stuck in my outbox. Should I try resending it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ouchy Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Hi, I just sent an application, however I don't think it filed through. It's still stuck in my outbox. Should I try resending it? That just means that it hasn't been read yet ;) As soon as an Admin (I'm guessing they run the "staff_applications" account), it will be removed from the outbox, and will be in sent messages. The outbox just means that if you need to do any editing to your message, you can do so. My relaxation method involves a bottle of lotion, beautiful women, and partial nudity. Yes I get massages.

Jehosaphat Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 I'd apply, but I have a pretty much nil chance of getting in due to lack of posts and such. Ah well. That, and with that much power, I'd probably hyperventilate or something. :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fizzzard Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 When it says "Type as much as you need" how much are we actually expected to type? Paragraph? Couple paragraphs? I know it says as much as you need but a lot of people don't mean that when they say it. 66,275th to 99 Cooking 73,802nd to 99 Fletching 8,839th to 99 Smithing 71,320th to 99 Magic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tripsis Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 When it says "Type as much as you need" how much are we actually expected to type? Paragraph? Couple paragraphs? I know it says as much as you need but a lot of people don't mean that when they say it. It's really just as much space as you require to fully answer the questions. A paragraph should suffice, but if you can further condense it, I'm sure a few sentences is okay too. If you need more than a paragraph to say everything that you would like to say, then that's fine too. There is no specific number of sentences that you have to have in order to be considered. Your application will be read and considered regardless of how much you write. Of course, it would be best if you didn't half-[wagon] it and answer each question with half a sentence, and similarly, don't ramble on aimlessly. - 99 fletching | 99 thieving | 99 construction | 99 herblore | 99 smithing | 99 woodcutting - - 99 runecrafting - 99 prayer - 125 combat - 95 farming - - Blog - DeviantART - Book Reviews & Blog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldDucky Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 One Quick question/suggestion. For the next applications should there be a certain amount of time requested for a member to have been a member of Tip.it? On the last drive I applied, I was sent a pm stating that my account was too new. Perhaps it would cut out some of the time it takes, and the effort of even sending a message like that. ~Ducky ~ HYT Chat Rules (Click Here): Read before entering the chat. ~| Former Clan Chronicle Editor | Former Clan Improvement Member| Former TET Member | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're never going to accept someone who has applied after being a member for a month as we simply have little to nothing to go on.

Gandorf61 Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 ^ It's one of the best virus/spyware scanners that looks through everything for problems. Since tip.it requires your computer to be virus free the test can show them that the computer you use wont allow someone to hack your tip.it account.
