| Some of you may not be aware of what Moderator is all about. You dont need special skills or knowledge to be one. All you need is proper judgment and consideration. But most of the moderators in any site doesnt really know that. They cant decide what thread to close, what thread to stick, what post to edit, what post to delete, when to be strict, when to be lenient, etc. etc. So they end up letting go of those situations to avoid mistakes. Not because they are incompetent, but due to the fact that each site has its own rules and style of forum management. But members might think otherwise. They might think that those moderators dont deserve the position since they're not doing their job. So for the very first time in any site, here at Symbianize, we will train Symbianizers who are interested in becoming a moderator. We'll teach them how to become an effective Symbianize Moderator. We will be training Symbianizers for 1 month. After a month, depending on the Moderator Trainee's performance, there are 3 possibilities. He (or she) will be announced as the newest Symbianize Moderator, or he will be asked to try again next time, or his training will be extended. Those Moderator Trainees wont be competing with one another but themselves. So its possible for all them to be moderators at the same time and it is also possible that none of them will pass. We believe that with this innovation of acquiring new moderators, not only we will have effective Symbianize Moderators, but also anyone who's interested in becoming a moderator will be given a chance. [b] Moderator Trainee Qualifications: should be proactive must have forum awareness (knows very well the Forum Guidelines) been a member for over a month with at least 100 reputation points (reputation should display at least 2 greens - ) preferably a PC user (moderating sometimes involves opening several windows which is more practical when using a PC) How to Apply: Answer the following questions... 1. How often do you login at Symbianize? 2. What time do you usually login? 3. What do you use to connect to internet? Is it a home PC, a work/office PC, a school PC, internet cafe, or something else? 4. On what sections of Symbianize are you most active (ex. Tones & Audios, Symbian Games, etc.) ? Create a thread entitled 'Moderator Trainee Application' and post your answers here...
[color=red](Moderator Training) The Moderator Training is a private forum. No one will see your post or thread except you and the Trainee Coordinator. If you have any inquiries or questions about Moderator Trainee, you may also post there instead.[/b]
