Hello! My name is Olive/Fern, and I am applying to be a Gaehive manager! I have been a curator/part of the studio for about 1-2 month, though I was in GWDFI for over 3 years off and on, so I have experience in chat studios. My age range is 10-18, and I am in the MST (Mountain Standard Time) time zone. I am online mostly during school days (8-2) and way less on weekends. I think I would be a good manager, because I really love people in general lol and I have a lot of empathy and curiosity to how people are struggling and succeeding! Some downsides to me being a manager is that sometimes I overreact to situations, and I am not that good at seeing people's intentions through the screen, and I also am sometimes not active for a long time (around 2 weeks), whether being on vacation, struggling with my mental health, or just forgetting about this site entirely. (I will mention, if I do become manager, I will literally whip myself into shape about being active as much as I can on this site) A unique thing that I could bring to this position is a possible more safe space for otherkin, as I identify as a therian, and if there is a therian manager, I feel as if that would help to validate and support other otherkin. A thing I would attempt to improve in the Gaehive is the rule-breaking, mainly rule 6. I would like to try to make it incredibly clear the consequences, and highlight the main rulebreakers, and figure out a way to reward the studio if they go a specific amount of ____ at _____. I do not yet know the exact rewards and consequences, but I would like to make them kind of... harsh? I do not know the exact way to say it. I believe being a manager of Gaehive entails a loving and respectful being that wants to help create a safe and amazing chatroom for other creatures to hang out, have fun, etc. It is a lot of work, but from what I can tell, its very rewarding! I would like to nominate @YouCanTextLater and @cryyptid both of which are very funny, and who would be a great addition to the Gaehive manager team! Love, Olive/Fern <3
Thank you to all the managers that are reading this, and thank you so much for considering me for this position!
