im serious.

yea even i agree its stupid that a trial can run for council. but it has happened before.

and honestly, would you rather someone with less experience in staff than me in council when they need a council member.

i said i would pull my name out if someone with standout better council quality applies.

I was going to apply, but in all honesty I don't have the time available to devote to WG in what I know if a time exhaustive job; as is many a rank.

Hopefully we'll see a few more applications.

respect to the people who applies whether they are trials or elite guardians. Jayson's application (If you read it at all?) Actually tells that he's ready for the rank + He's been here forever.. SO why not?

December 1, 2009

To my fellow Guardians:

Based on the requirements stated in this thread, I believe that I possess a unique mix of experience, knowledge, and skills that can definitely help the clan in this critical time of need for a council member.

Many of you know me well through long conversations in pm, ts and msn. My experience, skills, and abilities that I can offer the clan go beyond an online game.

Just as Abs describes here, I believe I qualify for this positon.

QUOTE

Council that looks for member feedback and so on. A Council that will never ignore a pm on IRC or on Forums. Someone that will always have the time to listen to anyone with a problem or query. Someone that is good at comforting people.


This is why I took so long to apply. These are not just words to me but the very feeling I have for all of you.

QUOTE

'Because I love this clan, I love my friends here, I want to make them happy' - THAT is your payment, THAT is what motivates you in Council.


Application for Council

1. Have you read and understood the warning?
Yes. I read the warning and have considered it before applying.

I can handle extreme conflict when the need arises and deal with fair punishments when necessary. I've already proven this by turning in a clan mate for something very severe in the past and my experiences with bias treatment have made me a stronger person. Being pleasant and nice is my preferred nature but I am very capable of being a strong leader that can deal with the pressures of extreme problems.

Only a complete fool would not listen to criticism and try to change their ways. Through my time in WG I have often been put to the test on this one. I'm able to get over it and move on a better person for it.

2. What makes you think you can last a long term in the council?
* My experience in the clan from being a member for almost 2 years.
* I can handle the pressures of the desires of the members and making tough decisions.
* My consistently of being a loyal and active member of the clan.
* I have extensive team management and team building experience in RL
* Excellent grasp of "one to one" member relationships and how to deal with it.
* Ability to work effectively in a multi-tasking environment.

3. Is there anything coming up in the next 6 months that could make you highly inactive?

No. Nothing that I have planned.

4. Why are you applying for council?

I am confident that my ability to develop and maintain strong relationships with my fellow guardians will benefit WG as it has been for some time. I believe that my excellent record of success in maturity, winning back members from leaving, and increasing friendliness in the clan, clearly demonstrates my proven ability to meet and resolve problem and challenges that arrise and adds to the clans success. I enjoy being helpful and playing RS with my clan mates. Getting to know all the members is one of the most rewarding experiences of playing RS.

5. What does WG need most and what will you do as a council member?

I see our community as one of the best in the clan world. This is why most of us stay in WG or the reason why many return. I will keep this as a focus to assure the future of our success.

Community alone will not keep us a happy clan. Things need to be done and handled on a prompt nature. I will do my best to respond to all issues as quickly and efficiently as possible. I believe I have the personality that can motivate others to be active and to have loyalty in times of distress.

I will be playing RS with all of you and enjoying your company. We need to keep friendships active and have fun together. Whether it is joking about pnsbutt or just simply going on raids together. I see the importance of daily chatting to members and helping them whenever I can.

6. What puts you above other people applying for council?

I never like this question, as I see all of us as equals. I have had the honor of being voted by our staff two times to be MOTM in a years time. This shows the level of dedication I have to the clan. I've moved up in rank to be an Elite guardian. I've won Friendlist Member every time since I came to the clan. Although these accompliments are something to be proud of, I do think of my self above the clan. I try to put the clan first always in my decisions.

7. What is your greatest weakness in terms of being a leader?

My kind and loving spirit could be a weakness or the greatest strength. I have learned that there are times when you can be kind and still be firm and unwavering to the behavior that you are trying to modify. I'm very forgiving and want to believe in the good of mankind.

8. Is there anything else you would like to say?

I've been thinking about this for a long time. It's not something I take lightly. I really appreciate all the people that talked to me about my applying and helped me through my decision. I will do my very best to not let you let down, if I get the council position. I will still do the ts meetings and plan events cause I love to do that too.

If not elected, I will continue to be happy with the rank I have and all my friends here.

9. Do you agree to provide the council with two weeks notice if you wish to resign? Yes. I agree with this rule.

I appreciate all of you reading my application and considering me for this council position. After reviewing this if you have any questions just pm me. I'd love to clear up anything you need to know. Good luck to the other applicants.

Thank you Garrett and Dallar.

is the day you have stopped leading them.
They have either lost confidence that you can help them
or concluded that you do not care.
Either case is a failure of leadership.”

I'll keep this short and simple.
Nobody reads these anyway.

Application for Council

1. Have you read and understood the warning?
Yes, many times over the years.

2. What makes you think you can last a long term in the council?
Experience, dedication and a burning passion to see WG achieve it's full potential.
Looking at my real life situation right now actually aids me here. Losing my job has provided me with a lot of free time to dedicate and give back to the clan that's rewarded me with many years of plesant experiences.

3. Is there anything coming up in the next 6 months that could make you highly inactive?
No.

4. Why are you applying for council?
Because I feel WG is in need of repair.
Because I feel WG requires somebody experienced and dedicated to turn them in the right direction to achieve serious recognition in the clan world.
Because I feel we a leader that can be online, in game and on the forums daily.
Because I feel... that I can provide all that and more, if given the chance.

5. What does WG need most and what will you do as a council member?
My primary objective is to put us back on the map. I want to see WG right back up there in the thick of it, in competition for a top 10 ranking. We have the potential. We have the members and dedication. All we need is putting on track. I can do that.

However, I will not neglect the skilling and events side of the clan in my work. I feel that these are what build our superb community and they are in fact key to helping us perform in the wilderness.

6. What puts you above other people applying for council?
Experience. I've been there, done it, got the t-shirt.
Twice.
I know what the job entales.

Besides that, I'm a very calm individual who doesn't

7. What is your greatest weakness in terms of being a leader?
Vaginas. (Old school joke hash.png)
Seriously, I feel my biggest flaw is my agressive personality and not be offended by things. In the past I've heard of members feeling intimidated by me and the things I say. Especially in IRC. I speak my mind and say it how I think it is. Which isn't necessarily a good thing in certain situations. I think it's the thing I have to work upon most.

8. Is there anything else you would like to say?
The clan will go in one of two directions after this election.
Skills.
Fighting.
A vote for me, is a vote for the ascension back to being a top fighting clan.


9. Do you agree to provide the council with two weeks notice if you wish to resign?
Yes.
