Curator Applications!

Hello, FEHA.

It is with great sadness that we announce Lati's retirement from their role as curator. The both of them have stepped down due to personal matters. We are extremely grateful to them for their dedicated service and wonderful memories made together. Thankfully, they will still be around to help out with events. We wish the best of luck to Star and Lati in all their future endeavours!

Due to their departure, we're going to need additional help in the Amino, and that's what this post is all about.

How To Apply

└─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───┘

We have changed the way the curator applications will be carried out again.

This time, the will have the biggest say in who will become curator. (Yay, democracy!)

Here's how the application process will go:

13 to 23 August

1. Everyone can send in their applications to the FEHA Curator Application Form.

24 to 30 August

2. We will pick the ten best applications, and publish each application on Amino as anonymous Wiki pages (with names like "Applicant A", "Applicant B" and so on).

We are doing this so that the choices will be based on the quality of the application, and not by popularity or bias.

3. You, of the community, can then look through all the applications, and decide who you think is best suited to be a curator.

4. Send in your votes via PM to Zivko.

This is to maintain the confidentiality of votes (and the preservation of friendships) without the chance of votes being rigged.

31 August

5. The three applicants with the most votes will be your next curators. The results will be announced in the August Leader Logs.

While we hope to keep all three curators, we will still have to conduct a one-month probation to see if the member truly is a good fit for the job. During the one month, their performance as curator will be assessed. If a curator fails the trial, the next runner-up will be taken in on probation.

If you are agreeable to these , go ahead and fill up the application form below!

So go ahead and troll :triumph: :ok_hand:

Helpful Tips

└─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───┘

1. READ. Read this post and the questions carefully. Show your sincerity by putting in the effort to look through everything.

2. Write as much as you can. Give us a better idea of how you are and how you'll be an asset to the community. Sell yourself to the community who will be judging your application.

3. Be honest. We know everyone has flaws; acknowledging and accepting your flaws shows great strength of character. Overpromising and falling short of expectations hurts, too.
