So do i. He posts more than when bloodrun used to be active. And i know that, but the content also matters. YCMaker will consider differently someone who wrote some 3-5 stupid lines and somebody who wrote 20 lines with nice content. Basically, everything matters. what we write in general, determines what we are going to be (mods, rubbish men, engineers etc.)

1. What time during the day you are most likely online (include time zone)

 

I live on the east coast' date=' so every thing I'm about to say is in EST. On weekdays, I usually get on at around 4PM. Depending on how the day is, I'm on until about 11PM. On weekends, I usually get on in the afternoon around 3PM. If it's saturday, I can be on until whenever I feel like, which can be past midnight. If it's sunday, I can be on anywhere from about noon to 11PMish. In in the future this may change because I might have things I might have to do around 4PM. I'm a pretty flexible person.

 

2. Which parts of the forum you frequent most

I'm mainly in the General Section. I can occasionally be in the TCG Section also, but I've started visiting there less lately.

 

3. Why you should become a moderator and how you will help the forum

I've been a member of YCM for about 11 months, so I have a good idea what's cool and what isn't cool here. I'm a pretty active member. I'm also on when it seems like no other mods are on. While there aren't any mods on, I sometimes try to help out if any problems going on (sorry if that counts as mini-modding). About a week or so ago, there was thread in the General Section that became spam really quickly. After it got over 100 posts, I PM'd most of the people who where posting there so the amount of spam and clutter would be reduced. Some of the people I PM'd didn't listen to me, but it didn't really matter in the end because that thread was deleted. In the past, I've also helped Tkill inforce the large sig rule. And before that, I also helped Frunk with a problem involving a few people with multiple accounts. I've also been voted Nicest Member twice in a row for the YCM Awards, but like Darkthorne said, I can be [i']intimitading[/i] if I need to. I think I would do a good job solving problems in a peaceful and fair way. I would also try my best to avoid bais.

 

Anyway, thanks for giving everyone this opportunity.

 

Might I also add I recommended he post here because he would make a great moderator and has my endorsement. He is also usually the first one to PM me when there's a problem. :/

Here is my application:

 

[spoiler=Application]

1. What time during the day you are most likely online (include time zone)

I am online, on and off (mostly on), between the hours of 8am and 11pm weekdays (at least 8 hours total during the day) and am on once or twice a day (also between those hours) on weekends (though I am trying to get on more often). I currently reside in the Central Time Zone of the United States of America.

 

2. Which parts of the forum you frequent most

I usually hang out in the Custom Cards section (mostly the Realistic Cards, Finished Cards/Sets, and Card Contests sub-sections). I also check out the Games, Clubs and Organizations, and Introductions sub-sections of the Other section from time to time.

 

3. Why you should become a moderator and how you will help the forum

While I have not been around for a terribly large amount of time (I only joined in December), and I do not have an extremely high post count (like Dj-Osiris), I feel that I have some qualities that would prove useful in moderating this site. I have a keen grasp of spelling and grammar (though, to be honest, I have been known to make mistakes on occasion) and am willing to show people where they made a mistake in the text of their cards. I also scan the Yu-Gi-Oh! wikia looking at card effects to better increase my knowledge of OCG so that I can also use that knowledge to help people make their cards even better. I hate spammers and flamers, and try to point them out to current mods whenever I see them. And, though I may not be the most talkative and "Hi everybody!" person, I feel that remaining at a distance might be better if I was a mod so that I wouldn't have any conflicts of interest (though, I do enjoy having friends to chat with and ask advice from).

 

As a side note, I am one of the mods of the YCM-club on DA so it would be easy to communicate between the two if I was also a mod here, but I am managing just fine being a regular member here.

 

Anyway, I think that's enough rambling, and I don't want this post to turn into one as long as Dj's (no offense to him, though).

 

 

 

 

 

Hope I'm not too late to at least be considered.

Ooh, some interesting mod applications so far. I can't wait to see who gets to join the Forum Team. Anyone who makes it can add me to their msn contact list, if you don't already have me added, to answer any questions about modding you may have. MSN really helps with Moderator coordination as well.

 

I have to say, this is an odd feeling of nostalgia, reminds of when the last group of mods were chosen. It's depressing to thing about that one of you will end up replacing me when I leave. XD

1. What time during the day you are most likely online (include time zone)

When I have school: 5:00 PM - 9:00PM. When I don't have school: 1:00PM - 10:00PM, with breaks in between. All GMT.

2. Which parts of the forum you frequent most

General, and sometimes Realistic Cards.

Oh yeah, and Showcase.

3. Why you should become a moderator and how you will help the forum

Firstly, I have good grammar and spelling (though some may differ to American spellings).

Secondly, I will take the responsibility fully, and have contact with Kaze so I could clarify anything.

Third, I am often active, and I am in GMT time, which isn't often modded.

Fourth, I have a polite tone.

Fifth, (finally as of now, though I may edit with more) I will not, in any way, leave behind my personality, and become boring.

I guess that's it for now. =/

1. What time during the day you are most likely online (include time zone)

My time zone is GMT. I am most likely online 5.30pm-9pm on weekdays and 9am-3 or 4 ish or weekends

2. Which parts of the forum you frequent most

General, Decks, TCG

3. Why you should become a moderator and how you will help the forum

I would love to become a moderator for the simple fact i love to help people. Wether it is having an argument with crab to determine wether snipe should be on ban list or helping new players with their deck ideas. I will help the forum by moving lots of threads to their apporiate places cause lately i have seen a massive increase on posts in wrong places. Also I really want to help people to improve their decks. I am not at all into the custom cards section and i never go there. I can be a mod who is completely specialised to helping with decks and various TCG queries. Also i always try to have good grammar and check my spelling constantly and edit my post if i spelt something wrong. I live in GMT time zone where there not many mods.

1. What time during the day you are most likely online.

I live in GMT +1. And I'm only from like 15:30 to some where around 21.30 sometimes to even 0:00 or later but mostly to 21:30

2. The Custom card section and the RP/Fan Fic.

3. I check all posts in the Custome Card Section (except for the Pupcultere section). I could move, lock and even delete if needed. I could act much faster than the current mods at some times because of the diffrent Time zones. I could warn people about the new rule and I wouln't abuse powers if I could.

 

To be honest I do know I have one thing in my disadvantage that I do admit that I at some points lag in my english knowlodge. That sometimes leads to misspelled and I could get a problem on reading stuff but that did not happen in the long time I was on this forum/

1. GMT. I live in England. 6:00pm - 8pm on weekdays. Weekends, 1pm-6pm unless I have to go out.

 

2. General

 

3. I believe I can help this forum because I have experience in helping memebers of the forum. I also contribute by being the editor of the YCM Weekly, which helps develop my skills with associating with people. I also have learned techniques from Frunk, just by seeing his skills in 'modding'.

Well I think I should be a mod for these reasons :

-I am on at around, 5pm-8pm [GMT]

That will mean that I will have a good three hours of checking the forum out.

-In the weekends, my time may vary but can be inbetween 8am to 4 pm [GMT] and much later at night.

So I will have a long time to do the same as the top reason.

-I have been around since August, so I am one of the senior members.

-I have over 3000 posts and am active.

-I have a good sense of humor and think, I will get along fine with most members, the few I don't will be the spammers.

-Most people know me and won't be dumfounded if they found out I was a mod.

-I don't spam and don't break rules.

-The section I wish to be mod of is the card section or the General Section, if O had to choose between the two it would be the card section.

-I would not only moderate the section but use it to my and everybody elses full advantage as alot of people know that I am quite a capable cardmaker.

-I you have any spare time you can check the last few pages of my posts and see that I am a good member.

-I hope I am sucessful in this application.

 

Thankyou Ycmaker for allowing me to have the chance to appeal to you why I should become a moderator.

1. What time during the day you are most likely online (include time zone)

I am mostly on after school or work, in which the times are 5pm-11:30pm on weekdays and anytime on weekends. These are the times where most mods aren't on, so at least i can mod a time zone when other mods aint on

 

2. Which parts of the forum you frequent most

I am mostly seen around nearly every forum. But the forums i mostly venture to are the TCG, Anime, Fan-Fic, Realistic Cards and General forums, due to the fact that i love the game of Yu-Gi-Oh and a good sense of chat

 

3. Why you should become a moderator and how you will help the forum

Well... heres the big question. I Wish to become a moderator because i want to help out the other mods who are really stressing to keep this site in one piece. I have the right qualities to do it, and my activeness on this forum is quite good. I have been known to be a great member who is friendly around his peers and can be quite a comedian in such situations. When i started on this forum, which was the start of June, i soon realized with only 4,000 members at the time, that this site will turn out huge! In which, practically, i have been on this forum through mostly the good times and the bad. Another reason why i should become a moderator is that i have a high level of maturity and a great friendship around the forum

 

Now... how will i help the forum? Well here it is... i will help the forum in many ways. Firstly, i want to backup the mods, due to the stress on the site... i wanna help them out of this rut that they are stuck in. Secondly, we do have a lack of moderation around the forums i really visit.. it will be great if i can help those forums bring out the goodness and what they deserve. Thirdly... well... when it comes to banning a person... i would want to know both sides to a story, not just one.

 

That is all for Azuh
