Well I know I said I'll look over the last application thread but a lot has changed since we've had our last great staff member addition. We are again looking for 2 more moderators - regular moderators - and a few more GFX Pros if anyone wants a position and has good graphics skills.

Please Post your response here. Must Follow all guidelines and must be professional.

Please include the following in your application thread:


1. Name (first name will do just fine)
2. Age
3. Location (country will be fine, no need to go to specific city or zip codes)
4. Email: please post in this fashion: Admin (@) Gamers-forum.com - so the email does NOT become a link. the last thing you want is spambots picking up your email.
5. How long have you been a member of our forum?
6. How many posts do you have as of now? (check your profile)
7. Why would you like to be our next moderator? What can you offer that others members may not or can not offer?
8. How often will you look over the forum?
9. Last but not least, Do you have any previous experience in moderating other forums or websites? If so, please tell me the NAMES of those sites if you remember, no link required.

No experience is necessary if you want this forum to be your first, I respect that a lot but it will help you our slightly.

Post here, new moderators will be chosen in the coming weeks. No official date has been set as of yet. I will contact those that show great interest into the forum and have contributed a lot.

Usually I will not let anyone with infractions to apply but this exception will be made. You can apply if you have THREE (3) or less infractions.

Thank you! I look forward to hearing from some of you. Good luck!

Maybe you should've copy pasted the form from the first post, would've made things a lot easier for Linux to go over it.

hmm i have considered this for a while. As much as i would like to be a mod and get rid of spammers while helping the forum as much as possible... i dont think i would like to have the job yet anyways because i dont know if i will for some reason stop going on the forum. So i will have to be on here for a while before i can ask to be a moderator lol

Ok I will make sure I'm there for that. :laugh: Its funny how I'm getting popular on all the topics I have posted in. Back on track now, its really great that you make an aplication to have people sign up that way you know a little bit more about them. ( :mad1: Miniclip :mad1: ) is stupid in hiring there mods when there like 13 and 14 with no experience but we will leave that forum out of our WORLD DOMINATION. :eek1: (of Gamers of course)

Scott
09-21-2007, 02:06 PM
Oh I have seen crazier ways of deciding who gets to be a mod. On a site I was a mod on I had to ban another mod because they were making everyone who joined their forum a mod :mad1:

Jasperking
09-21-2007, 05:48 PM
then it wasnt a very good forum rofl.

Scott
09-21-2007, 07:54 PM
then it wasnt a very good forum rofl.

No it wasn't there security was awful. They were hacked about 6 times lol and then the admin blamed me and all the other mods so he banned us and got new ones :mad1:

LiNuX
09-21-2007, 09:20 PM
rofl, i would never make anyone a mod if i knew i had to ban them later - u gotta earn the position here - gotta show knowledge and that you deserve it, i wont give it to anyone just because you are there

Scott
09-21-2007, 10:29 PM
rofl, i would never make anyone a mod if i knew i had to ban them later

But he never knew who he'd be banning. The forum was doing really well with just 3 mods but then that other mod decided we needed more so he recruited all his friends and things just got crazy from there

LiNuX
09-22-2007, 12:37 AM
heh...i wouldnt make all my friends mod either, we'd have like 50 staff members or something then lol :D

Scott
09-22-2007, 12:41 AM
heh...i wouldnt make all my friends mod either, we'd have like 50 staff members or something then lol :D

It's not a good idea because seriously how well do you know someone?... Because I am sure that one of his friends was the hacker.
And I was one of the longest members on there snd the admin just banned me!!. He was only on like once a month (at the most) so it shows you how much he cared about his forum.
I hope it gets hacked again and that the hacker succeeds lol

09-25-2007, 01:45 PM
a british one, colleges here are like senior years in an american high school in terms of age... but you can get kicked out easily as you're there by choice and not by law... not quite yet law but apparently will be for those turning 16 from this september onwards.

09-25-2007, 07:02 PM
Ok I've went over with a few staff members and I've come up with a decision of two new mods - the following two will be promoted to moderator status but they will not be announced here - since the thread has gone off topic so many times, its unlikely and unprofessional to announce new mods on the 6th page of a thread lol, another one will be opened in a few mins

this thread is still open but unstickied

thank you!
