Hi, I'm Lia/Izar! I use any/all pronouns, and I'm from the EST timezone. I am 14 years old (I'll be 15 on May 10th). I've been a member of the Hive for almost 3 years on multiple accounts (I was @xX-WINGS_OF_FIRE-Xx, but that was hacked, and I was @beaudawes and they told me I was welcome to make another account because they thought my username had personal info. For the record, it didn't.) I'm available every weekday from 7:55AM to 3PM (sadly I do not have Wi-Fi at my house) and not available on weekends unless I'm at my dad's house, so closing comments may be an issue. - I would be a good manager because I have been a member for a long time. I enjoy being there, I'm quite active, and I'm fairly well-known, I would say. I am also a member of the LGBTQ+ community, so I understand things on that level. I am active on the discussion studio sometimes as well. - Downsides to me being a manager would be that I have quite uncommon opinions and beliefs compared to some members of the Hive, and I have a feeling you guys know that pretty well. I have PTSD, ADHD, anxiety and depression, so those might make a damper. I was uneducated, for the most part, and I formally apologize for making a scene. - I would do more curator thumbnail shifts (because that's always fun), I'd hold games and have unique QOTS and affirmations. I also have some good ideas for holidays! - I would improve overall hospitality of the Hive because I'm nice, understanding, and I know a lot of the members of the Hive well! - I think being a manager of the Hive would hold the responsibilities of closing comments when Karma points are low (and managing the points in the desc), enforcing rules calmly, and being committed to making the Hive a better place overall. I would also have to communicate with other managers, check the manager discussion studio, the offsites, and more. Also, knowing when to be serious and knowing when to be playful is a huge thing. Overall, keeping the Hive a safe space would be my top priority. - I would recommend Squirt (@hot655) because he is a great asset to our community. He's always kind, opening, caring and supportive of everyone, and is quite active. Once, he gave me euphoria when no one else did. - I would also like to recommend Chrome () because she is a great person! It's very nice and super responsible. They are overall really kindhearted and helpful. They comforted me countless times when I felt like I was nothing. - I also recommend . Amazing, mature, kind, thoughtful, caring, dependable, trustworthy, and overall a great candidate for this position. Good luck to everyone applying, and thanks to the managers for this opportunity! If I don't make it, that's alright, there's always next year, and I know the managers have our best interest at heart. May the odds be ever in your favor. ^^
