hey, guys! lately, the staff team has been struggling to keep up with everything going on due to the growth in our member count and the recent issues that have flared up due to this. we've decided we need a few extra hands to help us out and be apart of the staff team as mods.
as a mod, you'll be responsible for fairly simple but essential tasks such as helping other members, regulating boards and their moderators, getting back to member pms and questions, and fulfilling more minor tasks (i.e. changing group permissions, adding/editing group memberships, moving threads, etc.) but, primarily, as a member of the staff team you'll be a key part of influencing and giving your vote in staff decisions and issues and will frequently be asked your opinion and input! you'll have be be flexible and versatile, as it's common different staff members take different jobs and tasks at random.
be sure you're a team player and have the time and patience on your hands! :^)
simply fill out the application below, and we'll be announcing both the number of people we believe we'll need, and when those new mods will be announced!
Code: [b]name[/b]
[b]activity level[/b] ?/10. offer some more info on your usual schedule
[b]experience?[/b] have you handled any site projects before? been a staff member on a site? etc.! anything you think would help prepare you for a staff position!
[b]time spent on rp sites[/b] not just on bb, but any other rp site!
[b]why do you think you'd be a good fit?[/b] probably what we'll be looking at the most!
[b]other[/b]
good luck to all the applicants! i cannot wait for the chance to work with y'all at a closer level! <3
EDIT: we will be selecting THREE new mods! these will be chosen thursday, june 15!

activity level around 7/10. I'm almost always active during late hours because of me living in Australia (AEST)
experience? I ran a small forum by myself for about a year before it was deleted, I currently mod a few streamers on twitch, and two discord servers, one of which is my own, and of course i'm already moderating the stea bastion board.
time spent on rp sites oh gosh, about 6 years I think? according to my feralfront profile I joined there in july 2011.
why do you think you'd be a good fit? I generally like helping and working with others a lot! and unlike, from what I understand, most of the staff, I'm in a timezone that means I can be around for later users. edit: fixing this again to clarify that I just mean I'm possibly the only Australian on site, not meaning to be rude c:
other a lil suggestion: maybe a head for the games? as in head of warriors, head of tnw, head of rpa? if you streamlined questions to a certain staff member (like the common warriors body questions) it might be a lil easier to get them answered?

activity level 8/10. I'm Central time in the U.S. and often on early afternoon and late evenings.
[spoiler=schedule]I'm currently on summer vacation, and at the end of next month I start band camp.
Band camp is two weeks long from 8am to 5pm. This camp is mandatory, otherwise, I will be kicked out of band. Especially, if I miss a certain number of days.
After the two weeks are up I will start school on August 3rd. This will be my junior year. To me that is a much easier year than senior or freshman year. I also have very easy classes the first semester, so I won't be super stressed out about that.
Though every friday is game day so those days will be booked, and i'll have after school practice til 5pm.
My most active times during the school year are typically 6PM-12AM for the weekdays & 10AM-2AM for the weekends.
My summer times are free as can be so i'll be on randomly or possibly all day![/spoiler]experience? I've applied for staff positions on FeralFront and Chickensmoothie. I own and participate in an active discord server. I was offered a community helper position on a site called mysticfeline and a part in the art team on FeralFront back in 2015 [had to decline due to family issues] Also, if this counts, I was an admin alongside wakesfield to the deviantart group CritterCosmos. I often helped maintain a few boards back on feralfront, especially one's that needed help, and one's that had no current moderator.
time spent on rp sites I spent 5 years on feralfront, but was mostly active for my first three years.
why do you think you'd be a good fit? I would be a sturdy, and interactive addition to the team. I really want to help BearBones grow, and become a much more secured community. This forum has so far brought back so much nostalgia and happiness to me. I honestly want to do anything I can to keep that feeling alive. I'd also like to keep BearBone's clean and working. Making sure the sites gears move smoothly, things are edited, and questions are answered in a timely manner. I'd also love to be apart of and actively participate with fellow staff members. I'm very easy to get along with, I strive to be civil, and have a very good hold on my temper. I can come off as lazy, due to my laidback demeanor, but I promise i'm quite the opposite. I also have other priorities in mind aside from the essentials. Such as making sure that the members voices are heard, and to let them know they can always ask the staff questions. I want to bring on the feeling of companionship. Where members aren't scared to come to us for help, and will have the desire to comfortably confide in us. My wishes are a bit ambitious, but I want to do everything I can for my site. I know BearBone's is not FF/WCRPG, and that's not what I want, I don't want BearBone's to become that. What I want is for that old spark of comradery to be here. Where you could crack a friendly joke with a staffer, and get a surprise goofy gif in return. Those were some of the most enjoyable times of my early teens. I'd love to have that feeling shared with our older, and any of our newer members.
other If you ever need help with BearBone's, or would like me to do any extra tasks, all you have to do is send me a PM!

activity level 8/10. I currently do not have a job but I am looking for one. I am on a lot late at night so that may also help others. I'm currently in Pacific Standard Time for the US but when I move back to Wyoming in August I'll be in Mountain Time.
experience? In the span of that time I've been around, I've managed/created maybe 3 different roleplaying sites. And two forums as well. Each of which were pretty successful till I had to end up abandoning them due to having no time to work on them. Although some of them even stuck around even after I had left, so the communities were strong. I'm good at dealing with ideas, but I can't create any graphics. Most of the original roleplaying sites I've created have lasted around 2 years before I ended up graduating high school and didn't have any time. So I have experience managing those websites and keeping them active. I never applied to be staff on FF because it was such a big fan base and I didn't think my opinion would really be noticed.
time spent on rp sites Almost 10 years in total. Including the times on FF (Which I started late 2011). I started roleplaying long before that though. Once it hits October 13th, it'll be my 10 year anniversary.
why do you think you'd be a good fit? I always have ideas that could benefit the site (such as the advertising contest that's up right now, which Joey helped post and get together as I didn't exactly have points for prizes) and keeping everything up to date as it isn't hard for me just to post a couple posts here and there.
other But I would agree that maybe some of the moderators keep attention to certain aspects of the forum, such as maybe one focuses a little bit more on the warrior community while the other focuses on the other game aspect. But all Moderators could offer ideas to both parts of the forum! Just let me know if you ever need help with anything for sure!

activity level 10/10 but may drop to 8 or 9/10 during the school year
experience? i was an admin on exodus rpg, admin of grpg, gmod on a writing forum that is no longer active, have helped to create two forums on the smf software, and have worked on various sites over the years. i have also been a mod on four discord servers, one of which i became admin of
time spent on rp sites i was on ff for five and a half years, exodus rpg for 6 months, grpg for a year and a half, cc for a year, and that writing forum for four months
why do you think you'd be a good fit? i have experience as staff on various sites, am very experienced with smf software, and am very unbiased. i am friendly and enjoy communicating with others, even though im a huge dork. i am very familiar with the fancypost coding on here already even though im still fairly new to the forums. im a quick learner and am able to see both sides of a problem. i also am an artist and am experienced in graphic design.

activity level 9.5/10. Due to it being summertime I have a surplus amount of time on my hands. So, I can be on almost all the time. I already am usually, so this shouldn't be an issue. When the school year begins I'll be online after 3:00pm on school nights. Other than that, there's not many limits. Because of how lax my school is, I could probably even get on and help during classes.
experience? Ive had quite a bit of experience. Firstly, I've handled several skype, discords, and small forum roleplays. I've also had experience with a site I helped coown, however the name isn't coming much to mind. With the discords, I've ran two or three by myself and two with other people.
time spent on rp sites ive been on various roleplay sites for roughly 8 years now.
why do you think you'd be a good fit? I've been told that I handle stressful situations very well. I'm often come to with conflicts and asked to resolve them for others, which usually ends up well. I can remain calm during a conflict and diffuse the situation rather quickly. I also love helping the general public and keeping everything fair and everybody happy. Another thing is I'm very well organized and am unlikely to forget to complete my tasks. I believe that as a staffer we may have a diverse opinion on subjects and somebody who would remain active. I also believe that as a staffer I'd be able to help with a lot of questions currently being asked, as I'm used to the whole forum layout amongst other things. Also, I much enjoy coding albeit not knowing the absolute most about it. I could assist once in a while if necessary to the site.

activity level i'd say a strong 9/10, since it is summertime. i am about to start working third shift at the hospital, so it may fluctuate - but even when i am busy, i can often be found looking through the boards, even if i am not replying to threads. if this happens, i will usually be online from eleven pm to seven am.
experience? i have handled many facebook roleplayer's groups, as well as smaller warrior cats forums a few years back.
time spent on rp sites i can truthfully say i have been writing all my life, and have actively engaged in many roleplayer's communities since i had been able to access them. i had been on feralfront / wcrpg since 2010, since about fifth or sixth grade ( i just graduated, so that is saying quite a bit ). before then, i was a member on multiple smaller sites.
why do you think you'd be a good fit? to be completely honest, i am not the best at talking myself up - so i will keep this short and to the point. my goal since i had arrived here was to help others and guide the community into a place that can be called home. i want to see this site grow and flourish because i see more potential in the staff and member base than i believe i can put into words. i think i would be a good fit because i am honest and willing to help with all that i have, as well as dedicating time and resources towards watching bearbones become everything the writer in me has always wanted in a website. i want to create a safe, happy place for people of all ages to express themselves. i can also bring my experience with coding to the table.

so sorry about the post loss, guys! thank you for your patience.
name rosey
activity level 6-7/10. the end of the school year is here and i'm pretty much done all of my major tests/projects so i won't be stressing about that. on top of that, i have like, 13 days of school left before i'm free for the whole summer. either way, i'm usually pretty active on the internet as i don't often have homework or things to do. like 6 or more hours a day at the current level because i'm still in school, but once it's summer that'll change.
experience? i was a mod on feralfront for a while & i was also a chat mod for a few months on crittercosmos! i've been in different leadership/high-responsibility positions before both irl and online, so i'd say i'm pretty well-experienced :^)
time spent on rp sites the first roleplay website i was on was feralfront/wcrpg when i was 10, so early 2011 was when i was first introduced to forum roleplaying. obviously, it's been a long time since then, but i've been on multiple websites(most notably, crittercosmos & wcarpg) as well as a facebook roleplayer. i'm always super stoked about being active in communities and helping out.
why do you think you'd be a good fit? i'm pretty friendly and i like keeping people safe and happy! i think i'd be a good fit because of the time that i will be able to invest in bb pretty soon as well as the amount of experience i have in community leadership positions in the past. i'd say that i'm a pretty friendly and approachable person, and i'm hoping to be able to help out around here no matter if i get the position or not because i do want this site to flourish and i do want everyone to feel safe and happy here!! i'm very organized and i've been told that i'm a pretty mature person when i need to be.
other i dont think so <3
