[plain text version] About me!: Greetings, I'm Kasper, or mainly known as Citrus online :] I've been a member of gaehive since late February of this year! (2025) I am a teen, 14-16, and in EDT (EST) I'm always online on gaehive through 4pm - 2am on weekends, and 4pm - 1am (or 11pm) on the weekdays. Why would I be a good manager?: I deem myself as a person who can always be there for others who need it,, and I always strive to be something more better everyday. I like to inform others on topics that I'm quite educated on, (Hispanic/Latino culture, religion, etc.) and simply connecting with others. I know most people who I see on the hive, considering I'm pretty active on there every day, or night I should say. I can always take a step back when I need to if a certain situation becomes too much for me to handle,, or I try to be a mediator and/or try to solve the conflict. Pros: I can handle trolls and consistent rule breaking in a calm, orderly fashion, and maintain my temper and stay rather calm during serious discussions. I take all my responsibility for my mistakes; and accountability, at least I try my very best to do so. I always try to be positive to others and myself, and try to always respond to comfort/advice/euphoria requests I am always up to date with rule changes/discussionhive and try my best to apply those changes to gaehive and others in the community. I always try to descalate drama/situations and try to hear from both (or more) sides first before jumping into conclusions. I usually try to keep my personal opinions out of situations that require open-mindness. I am an empath. I can manage stress pretty well. Cons: Sometimes I can act rather blunt or rude, but that is something that I am trying to work on as a whole. I struggle with preceving tone at times. Sometimes I'm too exhausted to respond to everyone or enforcing rules on others. Sometimes I am a really big people pleaser/get too involved with try to talk/take care of others which leads me to being easily burnt out sometimes. Some downsides of being an empath,, which i've mentioned, is that I gt emotionally numb from trying to help people too much. Although rare, I get too intimidated to enforce rules. Sometimes I might unintentionally break the rules, I try my best not to. I might log off at random times without warning. I struggling with identifying trolls at times. Why do you want to become manager? I want to become a manager for gaehive so I/we can make the studio an even more safer place and be more inclusive to those who are new to Gaehive. As well as handling problems and making everyone feel as if they are wanted in gaehive. I want to become a manager so then no one feels excluded, attacked, or anything of the sort. As well as simply being there for those who need it, a lending hand, someone to talk to, someone to rant/vent to, someone to ask advice from. I want to become manager so I can help as many people and non-people as I humanly can. What sets me aside from other candidates? I think on what sets me aside from other candidates is that I am very, very active on the hive and tend to know a lot of people due to my constant activity online. This makes me more noticed, and more heard compared to other candidates. I do try my best to remind people of the rules, consistently doing so, though sometimes I get too intimidated to tell the person otherwise, but I am working on that. And if a friend of mine does something that's rule breaking, i'll simply remind them, same goes for people who aren't my friends but people I sometimes talk to. I am also very mature and do try my very best to maintain my calm demeanor in high-stakes situations. What do you think being a manager of the gaehive entails? I think being manager of such a big community is maintaining a community that is safe for everyone, making sure other people are doing okay as well as keeping yourself in check. As well as resolving conflict between gaehivers, supporting one to another, dealing with trolls + the occasional drama and being respectful to all regardless. As well as I know the trouble and how hard it is to manage a big community. Especially with trolls threatening you or trying to make this place unsafe. I understand how stressful it might be at times, you just have to manage and try your best to maintain it a safe place for all, as well as taking care of yourself in the process. I'd recommend , I see a lot on the hive, and he is always enforcing the rules politely onto those who breaks them. He also just gives off manager vibes, and is super interactive with a good chunk of gaehive. I'd recommend ! Taph brings up topics that I think aren't talked about often,, and makes great remarks from the such. I see him quite frequently in the hive, I think he would make an excellent manager. He's also pretty active in discussionhive, he makes really great questions and suggestions.
good luck to all of those who are applying! okay the tap feature isn't working uhmm .. </3 press space for now ^ I am so sorry for how many typos there is in the actual project ;-;
