Team Blaze Moderator Applications

Also, just a little reminder, we are currently having a our TB moderator applications. Here is a copy-pasta from the OP. There are other announcements (which I might cross list as posts in the thread later), so feel free to look at those as well.


-----
Do you have what it takes to be a Team Blaze Moderator? Put your leadership and creative skills to work and show off your team spirit!

We're looking to kick things into gear! In order to do so, we'll need a team of active and helpful staff members to cover all of the tasks we want to accomplish. Want to put Team Blaze in a spot where it can thrive? Here's your chance!

Term Lengths:
The duration of the new term will be all of 2014. Moderators may re-run as many times as they please; the performance in a moderator's previous positions will be taken into account for future positions (for better or worse).

We've got a full list of positions here. The idea is to divide and conquer! Remember, though, that being a staff member of Team Blaze means being a team player; that might mean helping out with other tasks that aren't assigned to you if another moderator needs help with their duties.

Primary Positions:
Chat Moderator: The chat moderator moderates (lol), kicks people, adds people, edits/deletes messages, etc. when needed. We're going to be a little bit strict with behavior in the chat, so our chat mod should be a good supervisor!
Thread Moderator: The thread moderator updates both the thread and the spreadsheet to make sure all information is super organized and neat.
Engine Moderator: The engine moderator manages the website/engine. This includes adding songs, creating website content, etc.
Event Moderator: The event moderator polls the team members for interest, schedules events, and manages the events as they take place. We think being on a team should be about doing stuff, and someone's gotta lead the charge!

Additional Positions:
New Member Welcomer: Promptly welcome new members that join the team.
PM Sender: Send team-wide PMs to team members when asked to do so.
Graphic Artist: The graphic artist makes graphics for team events and such. Other skills in graphic design are a plus!
Sandwich Maker: The sandwich maker makes made-to-order sandwiches. The sandwich maker must also cover transportation of said sandwiches to their rightful recipients. If you want to please reuben_tate (aka benguin), cheddar cheese will suffice (^)>
Other: If you think you can contribute in an area which isn't specified in one of the above positions, let us know!

How To Sign Up:
You must meet the following requirement:
-Be a Team Blaze member before this post was made

Then, you must send both of the team administrators (reuben_tate and dAnceguy117) a PM with the answers to the following questions.
Your PM must be sent before March 22nd at 11:59 pm server time.

1) If you got the sandwich maker position, which cheese would you use when you make reuben_tate's (aka benguin's) sandwiches?
2) What moderator position are you applying for? (Apply for all of which you are interested in, in order of most to least preferred)
3) What is your main motivation to becoming a moderator?
4) What qualities do you have that would make you an appropriate candidate for your position?
5) How do you think (a) the community views you? (b) the team views you?
6) How do you view (a) the community? (b) the team? (c) reuben_tate / dAnceguy117?
7) When are you available online in general?
8) Describe a personal experience of yours (preferably related to FFR community) that emphasizes at least one of the following: leadership, teamwork, perseverance, appropriate tolerance levels, patience, or humility.


Depending on the position that you choose, we may ask you more follow-up questions afterwards via PM. After the submissions are closed, we’ll review the submissions, ask any follow-up questions, and will have the results posted within a week.

If you want, you may post in this thread saying which position you applied for, just to have people possibly reconsider their choice of position if a million other people already chose it.

Thank you all for your time and consideration. You all are awesome!
And so is pepperjack cheese! benguin says it's the best!Swiss is the worst, however benguin is slightly masochistic so giving it to him would be the best thing.

Update on Moderator Applications
Hey guys! Just a little update, we are still in great need of people to submit moderator applications, please don't all submit at once :P If you are even possibly interested but you have some concerns or hesitation, feel free to let us know so we can address those. If you want to speak about it privately, you can contact either myself or danceguy via FFR PM or Skype.

----
Also, because I have a horrendous multiquoting habit, here's my comments on your guy's posts:

Also, for those of you who aren't yet aware, we do have a new Team Blaze Chat. Feel free to come and check it out! Here's some info copy-pasted from the OP:

Skype Chat
WARNING: Only Team Blaze members are allowed in the Team Blaze chat (exceptions are handled on a case-by-case basis)
We do have a Skype group; if you wish to join it, please click the following link here. Your browser will then most likely then prompt you that you need to launch an application to open the link. Select Skype, hit ok, and you should then be added to the chat. New users in the chat will have the listener role until a chat moderator approves of the joiner and promotes them to user (i.e. upon joining, you can only view messages). If you have trouble connecting to the chat, please let an admin or chat moderator know and they will assist you.
