Mod Applications Open - Sign Up Here!
All right, now that it seems like most of the storm has passed, it's time to begin thinking about new leadership. Mod applications are therefore open to all current players in the game, and we strongly urge everyone to at least think over the possibility of joining the team. There are many duties in a game of this size and complexity, and we need what help we can get.
If you are interested, please respond to this post answering the questions posed in the application form below. Applications will be screened because of reasons (okay, so we want to see how you guys respond without knowing what other people who are applying are saying), but rest assured that we will be making them visible later on in the week so that our players can see what's going on/possibly weigh in with opinions or testimonies. (Note that this was an idea that was tossed around but may not actually happen.)
In the interests of saving space, the mod app itself (and obligatory text-area for east copy-pasting) will be under a cut.
Please answer all questions to the best of your abilities. For the hypothetical scenario question, we would strongly urge you to think of how you would want this situation handled as if you were the mod, the player doing the complaining, and the player being complained about before answering. All three scenarious could conceivably happen to all of us, and as moderators are still players at the end of the day, we need to be able to think of ourselves as such.
We need people who are interested in helping to steer the plot, play NPCs, process applications/Echoes, and keep things organized most of all.
If you have experience running games, are familiar with more canons than most can fit in their heads, and/or are creepily obsessed with either tables or spreadsheets (not that either Anduin or Lina can comment), please do speak up! We want to hear from you.
Because comments are screened, we'll be setting up three headings in comments for you to respond to: one for mod applicants, one for questions/concerns, and one for general discussion. Have at it!

MOD APPS
QUESTIONS/CONCERNS
Re: QUESTIONS/CONCERNS
Lina mentioned here that I should put down a message when mod apps start. I don't have the character app fully done yet, and I figure I should ask what was meant before I take any steps towards stopping character app writing for a little bit and dropping a mod application.
