Staff Applying Q&A session

Staff Applications

Hey guys, BGS Community ~Helper~ here! It’s once again a time to open the Staff Application! Since we are low on members, we are now opening a staff application!

# Info & Rules

You will only apply when if you feel up to it. There is no point at all of applying when you suddenly take back your application.

You will apply only if you suffice the **Staff Applications Requirements**. I will ask you to show evidence etc. if I feel that it’s necessary. You also will have to contribute to the wiki. Giving staff to people who aren’t interested, or simply no longer be a part of this wiki, is once again pointless. Therefore I ask you again to **think twice** before submitting your application.

You will have to answer the questions given in the below. If there are no voters on who should be staff, I will have to decide, by rating each answer out of 10. Whoever with the most points will get to be staff. The person with second most points will also get rollback, who, if any bureaucrats feel like it, will be promoted to content moderator once they did a good job.

There will be no judges for this contest, except when there are no voters; the winner will be voted on by everyone. (Feel free to vote if you don't enter as well)

# **Voting has opened! You can vote just below!** Instructions

	Voting

	**Voting is now open! **ANYONE CAN VOTE**. You don't need to have submitted anything.**

	### How Voting Works

	Each contestant will have their own heading below. **ANYONE** can come onto this page and leave a rating (write your name next to your rating) under each contestant's heading out of 10 based on their actual entry (not for fun submissions).

Feel free to explain your rating, but you don't have to! **Don't vote on your own and if you rate one you have to rate them all.**

**VOTING WILL CLOSE ON DECEMBER 5TH, 2020, AND I WILL AVERAGE THE RATINGS AND CONFIRM THE WINNER!**
