I've seen numerous threads on this, and it's cluttering up the forums a bit.
How to Apply for Admin!
According to Haggard, these are the guidelines for admin:
The Gist:
-Be a member of the forums for 60 days
-Fill out the Admin Application
-Wait and see if you get in
-If you are accepted, you will become an apprentice. You have limited powers and will be monitored, but the CAs will be promoting apprentices to Full Admins, if they see they're fit for the job.
Cool! There's the procedure to apply for admin! But wait, how do you apply, you ask?
Simple! Just fill out This form! Yes, THIS Form!
Oh, you need help filling out the form? No problem! Just read the next paragraph!
So here's the admin application! Oooh, ahh. And remember, you can find this app HERE!
Let's start from the top. It says Being part of SG, we ask you to join our >>> Ventrilo >> here
Alright, let's get started with the actual app. I've listed each part from 1-6, and I'll go through the app accordingly.
Your In-Game Name- This is the name that you use when you play in our servers!
STEAMID: The STEAMID is listed in this format:
STEAM_X:X:XXXXXXXX, where instead of X's, it has your number. To find your STEAMID, join a server, open the console (~ or ` key), and type "status". All the names and STEAMIDs of the people in the server will show up. Find your name, and your STEAMID will be listed beside it.
You are at least 16 years of age: This is mostly used to determine whether you will be a mature and responsible admin, although there are many cases where people under the age of 16 are mature enough.
You agree to the admin rules: The full list of the SG admin rules can be found HERE. If you want to become an admin, you absolutely NEED to read these over constantly and abide by them at all times.
Why should you be accepted into our Apprentice Program?: This is the place to dazzle our staff, where you can put anything that makes you seem like a good candidate for a spot in our Apprentice Program. Show your worthiness here! Also, check your spelling and grammar, because they look at that. ;)
Would you like to participate in Admin Training?: This one is not a requirement, but is a very good idea if you would like to familiarize yourself with all of the admin commands.
The training program was started in May 2009, and it is aimed by helping the admins/apprentices with their admin commands. The official thread can be found Here. Any apprentice admin/administrator may attend these sessions. All session dates are listed in the Community Calendar.
When you're done all of these fields, click the 'Submit' button, and you're done! The CAs (Community Advisers) will meet every 2 weeks, and decide which applicants will be accepted, and which apprentices will be promoted to full admin. When they are finished, they will post a thread saying who has been accepted/promoted.
