Hello - it's that time again.
We would like to know who may be interested in becoming a staff member, or if there's anyone that you would like to see on staff.
Please post in this thread if you are interested and/or who you think should be hired. It would be greatly appreciated if you could give a reason as to why you (or who you are suggesting) would be a good addition to staff. Please specify People Staff or Design Staff.
I'll repeat something that was mentioned in the last hiring thread regarding potential Design Staff:
QUOTE
Especially for Design staff, dont be afraid to nominate yourself if you have a low amount of posts but you have a lot of great contributions. We may still consider you, we may not. But we'll never know if you dont put your name out there.
We do not have a definite time frame yet, but this should take no longer than a couple of weeks (depending on how long this thread remains open).
Also, one more thing (then I promise to hush, for a while at least xD), please don't spam in this thread. =)
THE LISTPeople Staff:
heartquasm per request
Just_Dream per request
Tungster
NoSex
doiink
Spencer per request
misoshiru per request
paperplane
melie
absinthe
DoubleJ
Elba per request
icecreamisyummy
manny-the-dino
kryogenix
Design Staff:

doublehelix
melie
schizo
highwayto4355
CrotchetTheLeper
EDIT: Couple of things. I'd like to close this Sunday evening, so if you think of anyone that you believe would be good on staff, please post their name (and which position) by Sunday evening.
Also, I'm going to start deleting any posts that are not hiring related from now on. I hate to do that because I hate deleting posts, but I will in this thread. Sorry guys. - Rebecca

Let's analyze:
QUOTE(doublehelix @ Apr 14 2008, 07:55 PM)

I’ve previously been on Design staff and MySpace staff, on two different occasions.
And what happened on the second occasion?
QUOTE
I know the amount of work that is required of any staff member, as well as how much commitment they must have for the site, and the drive of passion to want to help others.
Yet, you were inactive for almost a month the second time you were hired, and then came back and bitched that you were the only one doing work when you did jack shit.
QUOTE
With my combined 8 months of experience on staff, I think that time, alone can qualify someone for staff.
Did you subtract you absences while you held the position?
QUOTE
I developed the Design Staff HQ to act as a base for all DS activity.
Developed the Design Staff HQ? You made a thread Backstage for DS to post in. That must have taken forever.
Please don't hire Thomas, BUT HIRE ME!

but I would also like to be considered for People Staff if you see that I am fit for either of them.
Sorry, I don't want someone on staff who can't tell the difference between spam and being ON-TOPIC.

OMG SPAM SPAM SPAM

QUOTE(doublehelix @ Apr 14 2008, 08:12 PM)

Spencer, you just want the position for the title, while you were on staff, I really didn't see you making an effort to improve anything.. I was only on staff for the second time for a few months, so saying that I took a break for a month is an exaggeration.
I bet you it's not. Trish looked up your resignation topic the other day and you said...
"I'm guilty of not pulling my weight last
month..."
Don't even go off about how I didn't do anything while you weren't even here.
rnicron
Apr 14 2008, 08:17 PM
I'm better than you. I think that's reason enough.
I was on everyday while I was on. Perhaps you didn't know that there isn't as much to do on People Staff as Design Staff.
I don't need to make myself sound like something I'm not, so I'm not going to exaggerate why I'm qualified.

I think you would actually be good for design staff. You made me that cool sig that I lost.
I would like to be on staff one day, but others are more deserving of it right now.

QUOTE(doublehelix @ Apr 14 2008, 08:20 PM)

imo, I think with that mindset you have no place to be on staff.
I can almost guarantee that since I pissed off Trish today, it's not a big possibility anyway, but I can guarantee you won't get it either if Trish has anything to do with it.

ok guys, this thread isnt really for debate. nominate someone (or yourself), say why, and then bye bye.

Apr 14 2008, 08:43 PM
Seriously, just drop it. He said why he thinks he should come back to staff, you've said you don't agree. I would really, REALLY appreciate if you both would just drop it, now.
pandora
Apr 14 2008, 08:43 PM
If you guys would like to start a "hiring thread discussion" thread, by all means, please feel free to do so. but i dont think the staff wants to have to sift through all this bs to find candidates.

im going to nominate nate and betty for people staff. and sally for design staff.

ONE last thing...
Why was this made if you guys have already been considering people for a couple weeks?
pandora
Apr 14 2008, 08:50 PM
to give you guys a chance to nominate anyone that we haven't thought of yet, and to see what you guys think of people that we have thought about.

I don't think Janette should get the spot only because she posts things like this:

i seriously wouldn`t know.

I wouldn't want to hire someone who spams.

Spammers don't contribute much. That's just a negative right thurr. Yea that's the same as

Christina, I will say that I was wrong about you being a spammer. My bad. But you do have a hard time of letting things go. god. she posted that one time from what I can see. But you will not let it go.

lol if you honestly think I was angry, I wasn't.

I do let things go. I just think it's funny that some things are mentioned without even the slightest consideration about certain events, regardless of whether they are minor or major.
