Hello everyone!
It has come to that time again. With the mod team currently down to myself and Kitten, a few things are starting to slip and we are in need of one or two helping hands to prop up the corners while we concentrate more on putting the meat of the game back on track.
Outlined below is a list of potential tasks that a person might need to perform. Don't worry - if you're working with us, you won't be handling all this by yourself. Some familiarity with Dreamwidth coding would be beneficial, but we can walk you through it.
Page Updates
This comes into play mainly after app cycles, but also in the case of username/player handle changes or contact detail changes. Lists that need an eye kept on them are the Reservations page, Taken Characters page, Player Contact and Residences page, as well as the Bestiary and Locations should any new entries be added by the players. The Weather page requires updating weekly, and adding new tags also falls into this duty.
Application Cycles
Though things have slowed down recently we do still get applications and (often) appreciate a second or third opinion before said applications are passed. This is particularly useful when it's a canon that one person knows well, while another mod may not.
Activity Checks
This will entail checking up on links given for activity to make sure that they pass muster, and informing the player if they do not. You will not be required to post the activity check post itself, unless circumstances mean that no one else can.
Events
While you won't be required to actually write out events, we would definitely appreciate ideas being pitched and assistance where events require some level of mod involvement (ie for RNGs).
NPCs
No one is going to be asked to pick up an NPC if they don't want to take on that extra responsibility, but we won't say 'no' to it either. More info will be given regarding NPCs should someone wish to pick one up.
There are other odds and ends which might come up as things go on, but no one is going to be asked to do anything that they don't feel comfortable with, or for any longer than they feel okay doing it.
If you feel like you might be up to the task, please fill in the below form and post it here. All comments will be screened, but if you need to ask questions first then please do. It doesn't matter how long you have been in the game, or how much modding experience you've had. This is open to everyone.
APPLICATIONS WILL CLOSE ON APRIL 8TH
