Ethereal Posted June 21, 2010 Report Posted June 21, 2010 Good luck to ya'll who're going to apply. Like every other GM application there is, here's a few word of advice: Always make sure your grammar is perfect. Try not to use emoticons such as ":D :) ;] ;( :[ 8D :>," and so forth. Try not to use internet-language such as "LOL, ROFLCOPTER, ROFL, LMAO, ROFLMAO, GDIAF," and so forth. Be honest with your applications. If you say on your application, "I have good grammar. I know what it means to be a GM and to be as professional as possible. Grammar is a big aspect of being a GM." And then you go up to your friends in Fcity as a GM and you're like, "hi guyz!!!!!!!!! wh4ts up??????? ^_^~~~~" Yeah, we wouldn't want that. Try to be as professional as possible. Good luck.
Specter Posted June 21, 2010 Report Posted June 21, 2010 Finally! I've been waiting for new applications. Good luck to all applicants .
Ryuk Posted June 21, 2010 Report Posted June 21, 2010 Good luck everyone! Nothing more to say, Ethereal said it all, read her advice. It might help you.
Rune Posted June 21, 2010 Report Posted June 21, 2010 Do your best everyone! Looking foward on working with you. Veracity and respect is key, keep that in mind.
Justice Posted June 22, 2010 Report Posted June 22, 2010 Good luck to everyone. I look forward to seeing the new GMs in game! Be honest, respectful, faithful, and true. We need that in a GM. That, and activity. If you get in.. PLEASE be active and productive!! That is vital. My luck to everyone again. Can't wait to meet you all.
bloodymaria Posted June 22, 2010 Report Posted June 22, 2010 wew, good luck and i hope the new ones to be choosen are as good as our current GMs. again good luck and KUDOS in advaNCE. EHEHHEHE
Passion Posted June 22, 2010 Report Posted June 22, 2010 (edited) Good luck. Almost everyone up there said everything I wanted to say. Advanced congrats/welcome. Edited June 22, 2010 by Passion
Noir Posted June 22, 2010 Report Posted June 22, 2010 (edited) Everything has been said already, only thing I might add is don't rush with sending your application. Read it through few times, elaborate it as much as you can, read the questions the application is asking you to answer. Also think through the requirement number 2. 2. Must be on every day a minimum of 4 hours. If you are not, you will be removed without prior notice. 4 hours can be little - but it can become a lot fast enough, so think if you'll be able to be active before appyling. And lastly, be yourselves. I'm looking forward to see new, active faces again. Goodluck to all applicants! Edited June 22, 2010 by Noir
Aimpeccable Posted June 22, 2010 Report Posted June 22, 2010 I am so excited! <3 Goodluck to all the applicants!
Hannah Posted June 22, 2010 Report Posted June 22, 2010 Nice. xD Open again. Well good luck people. :3
Poringly Posted June 23, 2010 Report Posted June 23, 2010 Good luck everyone! If you get in.. PLEASE be active and productive!!
Ultimate Weapon Posted June 25, 2010 Report Posted June 25, 2010 Everything has been said already, only thing I might add is don't rush with sending your application.

I'm looking forward to see new, active faces again. Goodluck to all applicants! What happened when we make a few mistake, like mispell and forgot to type certain word in a sentence to make sense. We won't get accepted?
Rayray Posted June 25, 2010 Report Posted June 25, 2010 Good luck guys. I do hope new GMs would be active and no one would try to abuse his/her powers.
Noir Posted June 25, 2010 Report Posted June 25, 2010 Ultimate Weapon, if mistake's done only once and it's not used repeatedly or the application is not full of [small/big] mistakes, no senses and however, application is really good overall then they might look through fingers about this small little mistake and accept you. Also mistakes are human, we all can make them - but using "u" instead of you or using entirely wrong grammar is definetly not something what'd make you accepted. But more you read through your application, smaller is the possibility that there's any mistake left - that's why I always said, read it through few times, take 1 day for just reading the application and believe me, it can become much better as it was from the start. Most of the time people find some new statements they can add to their application, too or find out that they've read the question wrongly. So take your time, don't rush, and you will be fine! (:
kay. Posted June 25, 2010 Report Posted June 25, 2010 (edited) tottaly wrong grammar as it should be, that will definetly i counted 3. mandatory 4 hours minimum per day? do they get paid or something? good lord. Edited June 25, 2010 by kay.
Wish Posted June 25, 2010 Author Report Posted June 25, 2010 It never hurts to show a little bit of class, kay.. That's something that is even more important than grammar, which some people may not understand. :) No, GMs do not get paid for their work. It is purely voluntary, and we know this when we apply. It is a responsibility that we trust our GMs to fulfill, since they agree to it in their response letter. No one forces anyone to apply. But thanks for your review on our GMs, in any case.
~*God Of War*~ Posted June 25, 2010 Report Posted June 25, 2010 Is there a chance I could be GM too :O
Ethereal Posted June 26, 2010 Report Posted June 26, 2010 Is there a chance I could be GM too :O Of course- everyone has a chance. But its mainly your application (depending how good it is) that will affect your chances of becoming one.
Apo Posted June 27, 2010 Report Posted June 27, 2010 I wonder if the presentation overide someone's competence.
Poringly Posted June 27, 2010 Report Posted June 27, 2010 ^Huh what? xD And when you're accepted, please be as clear as possible when ur doing an event or whatnot.
