Hi...I've been watching your forums without posting...
and I have but one question I have to ask...

What does one must do to be a admid on this site? I, along with others, might be interested...you seem to be in need of moderators...dedicated file reviewers (like ticalc.org had a while back)...and other various positions...

Well, I'm not an admin, so I can't tell you the facts that Z, Dig, spiral, Barret, or anything another admin could tell you, but I know you need to know things about calculators. I'm assmuing you'd probably become a mod, and then an admin, cause the admins here have lots of authority and power *looking up into the sunlight from jail cell*. Just kidding, but the admins here have alot of authority-trust me-I learned the hard way.

Hey, are you new to CG? I like this forum alot, glad you came.

Well, to be a mod, you have to have interest in the site/calcualtors/knowledge and a desire to help people (though we're in a slack period for questions right now). If you want to be a Mod (which is actually mostly unnecessary currently) get involved in the site, post, help people out, be constructive, and also ask B and Z.

To become a dedicated file reviewer, try e-mailing Z, he's handles most of the site stuff.

There isn't really any set method of becoming an Admin (B and Z started it, so they're admins, Digital has been here a logn time, posted a lot, helped out, submitted some tankers maps, etc so he's an admin, I just did some graphics work for SAS). You'd have to add a lot to the site and be accepted by B and Z.

Hahaha. Yeah, Zootch, but I think you're more the type of person to handl site graphics and stuff-maybe you could. How about it? Zootch as our graphics man?

Whatca mean? I think that being a graphics designer would be great for you-cause you have so much creativity and talent. But, it's all up to you, and it's not my decision, but it's a suggestion.

WEll right now I hold the position of the site gfx designer, but I'd sure like some help now and then. Hey, Zootch if you want to help out send me some of your stuff and we can talk it over.

Yeah, D is our supreme graphics creator guy. :)
To neutral: Well, besically what spiral said is what you need to do. You have to stick around on the forums so that people get to know you. Be friendly and helpful. And when we feel you deserve to be modded, we'll mod you. Generally, just do what any regular user would do when they come to their favorite forum. Post, have fun, help out others and then if you let us know you'd like to be modded we'll think it over. Right now, you're too new and no one knows about you so people should get to know you first. This is bascially it, although we do have positions we still prefer to take people that we know something about. Alright, thanks for asking and feel free to stick around and we'll see how you're doing later on.

Cheers!

EDIT: I almost forgot, we'll only give out a mod status when we feel you're ready. Though, we may give you special privleges if you prove yourself to be a good member. As far as file reviewer go, not yet. The new system is not up yet and we will not be looking for reviewers until its done. I'm not going into explaining why though.

Yeah, besdies, ANYONE should be able to review like we have now. Maybe, just a thought, if you review like 10 games. . . .

Yeah, I think its okay if author reviewes their own file as long as they mention that somewhere in their review (and don't overrate their file, just be honest folks. if you don't think you can give a file a good or honest review then just use the rating system).
Complete your thought and maybe something will happen, just a thought :)

nothing, I just like making cursors better than anything else.
anyway, CG is not my top project, I am working on Amos Aardvark, this is a mickey-mouse-like cartoon, the first animation will be "Gunboat Billy". In honor of veteran's day, he has 'nam flashbacks
