Jae Onasi Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 Well, here's the thing. You have to have a minimum of 5200 posts, and/or time-in-forum of no less than 39 months. After that, your application gets sent to the central nominating committee, currently made up of tk102, Rogue Nine, El Sitherino, and me. At that point it gets tabled until the next biennial meeting. However, it can be fast-tracked by sending me a lot of chocolate, money, or visits from the Chippendale's dancers. . Once discussed, it is decided what task you then must do, including, but not limited to, keeping an ice sculpture frozen in Arizona in July, building a cheese statue from Romano cheese, or swimming the English Channel in November. After you successfully pass these tests, then your application is sent to the forum owners, where they cast incantations upon the papers to divine your true intent. If they like you, they might keep you. If not, you're banned forever. Applying for staff is not to be taken lightly here with that kind of risk.

Da_man Posted April 1, 2008 Author Share Posted April 1, 2008 keeping an ice sculpture frozen in Arizona in July. I live in AZ, and it gets to something around 110 degrees here.

Jan Gaarni Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 Yeah, well, you have to have been a member for ahile and show that you are Mod material. After a while, you might be asked to moderate a certain part (most likely the part you frequent most and contribute to) of the forums. Once a Moderator you again have to prove your worth for the next advancement which is Super Moderator, which is a global moderator. Eventually you might be asked to launch a new site for a new LucasArts game, for instance, in which case you will earn the title of Admin. This could take about 4-5 years to get thru all ranks depending on wether or not a new game from LucasArts gets launched that year, but if you hang in there you might attain it eventually.
