Moderators - urgent help!

[Anime Aficionada]

As an Admin I feel incredibly foolish upon posting this. If it's in the wrong place, please tell me, but this has never happened before and I'm unsure, completely unsure. I'll get it out of my skin before it starts jumping all over the place.

Well, as most of you may know BMGf has cast out a call for anyone who's interested in modding the said forum. Clearly I'm freaking out because of this, mainly since I am indeed interested, but for the following reasons I'm doubting my position in sending an application:

1) My strengths lie within art, as you all may know, and I just think that my work (not my editing, i.e. banners and avatars), as in original canvas drawings and such aren't up to BMGf's standards. Also, Tina's applying for the job, and with that in mind the odds really aren't cut out for me.

2) I may fall into hiatus easily next year, due to school, captaincy, and cultural related activities, which makes me rather fretful. But this may not be true in any case and I could miss a wonderful opportunity of a lifetime if I don't apply.

3) Age difference. This doesn't concern me as much as above reasons, but I don't think the forum would appreciate it much if an Art Moderator was some one almost half their age.

I'm slightly better now, after getting that out of my skin and off my chest. But I need your opinions. Quick replies are needed, and any criticisms/supportive comments are greatly appreciated.

Thanks, two cents from your horrible little nutcase,

EDIT: I would also like to say only one spot is available for an Art Staff moderator, which, now, has increased my stress level quite dramatically. >.<;;

I say if you are up to it, and know you'll have the time go for it!

You're one of the best art-y people around, you'll blow them out of the water.

Just watch out in case you find out that you can't carry on for any reason halfway through. But if you don't do it now, you could regret it. So good luck.

Hmmm.... An art mod? On BMGF? I'd say go for it. As they often say, seize the day and it shall be yours. This is one of those situations and even if you don't think you can make an effectiver mod, you need to realize that as a mod, you'll have the rest of the BMGF staff to help, or provide a little, "muscle," if things get out of hand. As I've come to learn, modding works because you have a team, and if you think you'll be going solo, then I got no clue why they're only putting up one mod position. =P

Nyaw, shucks. Thanks guys, it really made my morning (and I'm really not a morning person.)

You're one of the best art-y people around, you'll blow them out of the water.

#^_^#... That's really sweet. From a very respected soul as yourself it's quite a compliment. Thankyou.

Yeah, that's why I'm so hesistant. If I simply walk out three months after, hypothetically, gaining position, I could have jeopardised the opportunity for someone else who could have done the job twice as better.

Hahah, thanks. I'll keep that in mind. xD

Okay, I think I may submit today. Augh, but I need to pick out my top 5 artworks. And how am I supposed to know where to find one? D:

[MagmarFire]

Is it something you really want to do? If so, I say go for it!

[Praetor]

Go for it; then we'll have an Advanceshipper as a mod for once.

Plus, what do you have to lose?

[Anime Aficionada]

-grins-

Correction, Preator.

I am a MultiShipper. Therefore, I guess for once I could be of use around the fandom, couldn't I? Though, let's just say if any brawl arouses, my heart would have its soft spot for you Advance, Alto, Leg, Chiko and Pallet Shippers. ;D

Anyway, I've finished mulling over my best artwork, and thankfully the staff needs someone who's rather experienced with banner making and web layout design. -wipes brow-

All I need to know now is if I'm good enough, -gulps-, and then the odds may be in my favour.

[RobSp1derp1g]

well, I'll use this thread to say that I applied for Shipping mod on BMGf.
I don't know if I'll get the "job", but I've applied anyway

[JbstormburstADV]

Wait, shipping mod? Can you give me the link to where the application is?

[RobSp1derp1g]

you must send a PM to evkl

[Praetor]

Aficionada - Still, how often do we get into arguments with the other ships that you like? We usually run into contestshippers and pokeshippers.

[Anime Aficionada]

However few arguments there are, in any account, PokeShipping does in fact serve as the primary threat to PalletShipping, as much as it does to AdvanceShipping, PearlShipping, OrangeIslandShipping, and, to a much, much lesser extent, IceRaceShipping, which is, if the term is unfamiliar, the pairing between Misty and Danny; but I can't say much for the PokeHuman couples, though. /:

But back on topic.

I would just like to let those who are interested in any position advertised in "Bulbagarden is now hiring!" know that all applications are due by Midnight Sunday GST (if I remember correctly), which may fall into Monday for some, I think. Also, the server's running low, so make the most out of any opportunity to log on to the forum.

Oh, and good luck. I know I'm counting on mine. D:
