[CDT] Accepting applications!

Hey folks!
The Community Development Team is now looking for potential applicants.
Nothing is final in regards to the number of applications we're looking at accepting or when,
but we'd like to see the level of interest in the community for a position.

Applications are open to everyone; staff and non-staff.
We are looking for users who are creative, experimental, reliable and willing to put time and effort in to our future endeavors!
​

So, who are we?
The current list of our team can be found here: http://www.sythe.org/community-general/1587147-community-development-team-members-our-aim.html

Sythe.org's Community Development team strives to strengthen the community of Sythe.org.
We hope to better and aid the site, in terms of activity, community orientated events,
and overall increased participation by all our present and future members.

What skills are we looking for?

Creativity and imagination - Being on the CDT requires thinking outside the box to come up with unique, and possibly quite crazy, ideas for anything from community events and competitions to social media and advertising. From here we run with your ideas, adapt where necessary and try to put your plan in action as a team.

Willingness to assist and participate - When someone comes up with an idea it's essential that each member of the team should try to provide alternatives or constructive criticism to help aid the idea. You must be willing to do your fair share.

Ability to assess and take risks - Part of the CDT's mission is to try new and interesting things to liven up the community. If there's a chance your event may go horribly wrong, you must be confident enough to assess this and do your best to make it work. You can't be afraid of failure, we learn from our mistakes!

Team spiritied and dedicated - Possibly the most crucial skill to have. You must be able to communicate well with other users, differences aside, to be able to make our events work. Slacking and doing the minimum amount within the section and it's events will not help anyone. We need members who are keen to do their bit and work hard to advance the team. It is your duty to participate in every event you can to do this.


How do I apply?
If you would like to join us in our mission, please fill out the following application form and post it on this thread. Please provide developed answers for each question, we will only consider the best. Remember, your qualities shown around the forum will also be looked at and taken in to account.

Why do you want to join the team?
What skills and qualities can you bring to the team?
How often are you on Sythe each week?
Are you willing to put aside free time to help with events etc?
Do you have anything to add?

We can't wait to read your applications!
Keep an eye on the Community General section for future updates.

We look forward to your responses! Thanks!​

Why do you want to join the team?

I'm relatively new to Sythe, but I am really interested in taking an active role in this community. I would love to see Sythe grow, but really I am more interested in having a good time with the people here. Being on the CDT would allow me to interact with other users without money being the subject of the conversation - something which I really believe can tarnish relationships that may be yet to be formed.

Principally, I just want to get to know more people, and give back to the community.

What skills and qualities can you bring to the team?

I'm a natural people person. I would consider myself fair, and will never undermine somebody, even if I strongly disagree with them or see an issue with the way they post. You will probably be able to tell from my posts around the forums that I try and keep things civil at all times, even if abuse is hurled at me. I am also a proficient programmer, so if any programming needs going I could probably do that.

My English is excellent; I do not have trouble forming a coherent post to put my ideas and views across. I am also proficient with the forum software. I have experience managing my own community for 2 months now, and while I am still learning a lot, I believe that my skills in this field have been massively improved.

I am not new to forums - I used to be an active poster at Smokin Mils.

How often are you on Sythe each week?

Daily, for as long as it needs. At least 3 hours a day, usually more. If requested, I will generally be able to arrange time to participate

Are you willing to put aside free time to help with events etc?

Naturally. I don't mind running events myself or helping others with their events, or just attending some if they need a boost

Do you have anything to add?

Not really, besides the fact that I appreciate the work that you guys do and even if I am not accepted, I am sure you will continue doing a good job.

 

Why do you want to join the team?
Because I like the community.

What skills and qualities can you bring to the team?
I'm epic and I've been on CD team before

How often are you on Sythe each week?
Every day

Are you willing to put aside free time to help with events etc?
Yes, however I can't guarantee I'll be on at a certain time/date due to job/uni/social life, but you know I care

Do you have anything to add?
Not really..

As of late we've had the monthly Omgpop tournament, Sythe Monthly & MotM and the Sythe lottery. However, we need some new life in there as quite a few members are inactive just now and I personally can't put anything else out because I get quite busy.

[Ziggily]

- Why do you want to join the team?
I would like to be part of the creative group behind Sythe. I would love to share and be part of what makes this site better!
Being in the CDT would expose me to members that I wouldn't ordinarily meet or chat with unless they came to the Runescape section.

I bring a more mature approach to issues. I can work well with others and I have a creative side that has not been tapped into yet.

- How often are you on Sythe each week?
I am on virtually everyday!

- Are you willing to put aside free time to help with events etc?
Most of my free time is spent online so that will not be a problem
I am willing to do what it takes and will actively host events myself if need be

- Do you have anything to add?
I know that I am not the most active poster on Sythe nor the most well known user around here, but the CDT is something I have always wanted to be a part of!

Best of luck to all applicants

[iNarcotics]

Why do you want to join the team?
As I have now finished school and have a lot of free time. I am a very willing to help out others and have high ambitions, and i strive to fulfill these ambitions. If i am set a task or set myself one I WILL complete it. I have a lot of neat ideas to enhance the sythe community
What skills and qualities can you bring to the team?
I am from the UK where as most of the sythe community is from the US, I am a very creative person and this is evident in the work that I have done for my school. I am very good at prioritizing tasks and also a very good listener. Where most people believe that there ideas are the best - I am able to take on board other peoples ideas and if they are better, I am able to give up mine in order for the benefit of the user despite the hard work I would have put into it. Compromising is also one of my better attributes where i can also take on board others feeback to improve.

I am on Sythe/Laptop at minimum of 6 hours a day (sad i know) I am also from the UK so will be on at different times to the majority of the people which could be a benefit.

More than happy to, I am very bored of sitting at home if I am honest.

I may not have a reputation for much, but I am a very hard worker and also empathetic if somebody cannot fufill a task then I will try my hardest to complete it for them. I may sound like I am a little bitch doing peoples work for them - yes at times if i feel it will benefit more people.
