note. changed stuff in the project, the transcript may be outdated. heyo im astro(+) and this is my manager application its kinda messy and stuff so bear with me lol section 1 things about me names: astro/addie/andi/ant/i dont care as long as it starts with a and is mostly gender neutral pronouns: she/he, i prefer mirrors but she/he is also okay. also i go by anything as well gender is a construct i dont even care just assume i am alive interests: 3ds, rhythm heaven, helping people, sparklecare hospital, a buncha other things how long ive been here: about 2 years (april 4th/5th, 2020 or 2021. cant remember but ive been here for about 2 new years’ so) timezone: est (virginia) (im like always online so. mostly during weekends and sometimes during school and a lot at home unless my internet goes out) age: 12 plus 3 4ths (GUYS i can process things. i know im like really young but i can do it i swear) section 2 why i think i would be a good manager im really good at solving conflict. sometimes i sit there for hours making up problems in my head spending hours tryna solve them. like no joke i am carrying my friend group on my back trying to solve drama and stuff that isnt very related but i feel like it could be well integrated into the gaehive i really love trying to improve the gaehives current issues sometimes i try to calm drama down but it doesnt really work I LOVE HELPING PEOPLE A LOT its kinda a problem for me sometimes but i love helping people like. genuinely. i like when people vent to me so i can try to help them but it makes me stressed sometimes i pay attention to details a lot. thats. thats it i pay attention to details a lot i can be silly, but i can also be serious when needed. i also like befriending people, so i try to make myself an understanding and accepting person. i want people to feel relaxed and at ease when interacting with me. section 3 downsides to me being a manager i can get upset quick. if people tell me something i did wrong i usually suck up to it and take responsibility but i also panic easily and sometimes i cry over small tiny things and changes my parents turn off the router at my house a lot so sometimes i miss dramas and stuff my mental health is. Not That Great right now (i am healing!) so it might affect that a little. i wrote this a month ago and ive improved a lot so i can handle hosting sometimes i suck at following rules and the word 'please' makes me feel icky for some reason. i dont know im an odd child section 4 unique things id bring to the position I SWEAT AT THIS QUESTION i think the way we manage the studio is fine as is but i always love improvement and right now i unfortunately cant think of anything. i mostly work better when things are actually happening i swear i can answer it i just dont have the thoughts to im sorry if this deducts me from being a manager. i am a quick thinker i promise you im very tired section 5 my stance on current gaehive problems OH YES I LOVE THIS PART lets start with tws. i understand that trigger warnings play a big role in the studio but sometimes we have huge drama over it, which is honestly unneeded. typically it involves one or two users and someone not understanding it, or debates on whether something should be a required tw or not. i also understand that while people think theyre being helpful, sometimes it isnt. maybe we can move these discussions to the discussion studio or a person's profile if confused and try not to involve the entire studio. if something becomes a required trigger warning, we add it as like a silent rule. or we get a list of required trigger warnings. side note i understand that some people would like individual tws, and if there should be a drama over that we ask them to move it to the conflict studio and ask them to talk about it in a healthy way.
(continue) ok this one wasnt part of the list but i feel like its kind of important. there tends to be this like. “silent gaehive social hierarchy” in the studio and its like. people tend to talk to certain people a lot and while that isnt really a bad thing at all and is natural i feel like it goes unsaid and when there are lesser known members they get no appreciation posts and their voices arent heard and people favor more popular users. this also ties into the euphoria a lil bit bc when people ask for it typically more popular/well known users get it, and some people go fully ignored. ofc ppl arent obligated to talk to people they dont know yet, but maybe we could set up a euphoria studio or some sort of. not really intro hour but you just talk to people you dont really know/talk to at all in the gaehive. also the fandom stuff ties into that, if ur a fan of a big fandm in the hive (omori, pjsk/vocaloid, homestuck, tadc) u are more likely to find friends than, say, someone with lesser known fandoms (id list some here but then id just be saying everything i love). i think more intro hours could be helpful ok i have to stop this topic at one point but i SWEAR i love solving things and brainstorming things and puzzles but this is a manager application not a drama sorting project. this ll be the last thing i cover but i have WAAAAAYYYYY more ideas so I BEG YOU ask me about them i BEG of you. okay this last one is just about. escalation of negativity in general so its gonna be a messy one to deal with bear with me ill put it in a scenario. we have person a, person 2, and person circle. lets call them aye, two and circ. lets say aye and two are close and they come up with an inside joke that spreads to the studio. the studio rules says this joke breaks one of the rules, but they werent aware. (this makes no sense but im just going with it for now idk man) circ tells them to stop, but they dont listen. then more than half the studio just complains about it, begging them to stop. they do, but the negativity still lingers. now we have people leaving, people anxious, people confused, people feeling guilt and the hive isnt very safe of a space. i think this is mostly because we, collectively, are all mostly teenagers. we arent fully developed. we wont handle things the finest. we will have hiccups here and there. we are not therapists, or world leaders. no one is perfect. but as a studio, if we work together to bring down the level of “hey can we stop” comments after a drama, that might help greatly. i feel like a few strong, yet gentle reminders will do the trick. and reminding people of the rules may also help. but if that still doesnt calm the studio down, maybe a timeout might help. i am aware it will cause distress, but maybe a step back from the studio is for the best. in this time, people could sort out any lingering drama, or do something to calm down. while comments are closed, i would suggest keeping a link to the conflict or discussion studio at the top. i also suggest using (insert here i cant find it). Okay yea time to stop being serious for a sec next section uwu owo section 6 what id improve about the gaehive if i was promoted i would love to create a less hostile environment that way people wont yell about the rules like every second and people talk to more than just their closest friends i would also like to reduce trust issues because as we can see we are all shaken up from the sockpuppeting and id love to welcome new people without any lingering troubles. i (or we) could implement a requirement to state all previous accounts if they were part of the hive or maybe sme sort of entry form idk id like to collectively as a studio process drama better. ive stated b4 we are all kids and we cant really critically think but we can always try. I want every voice to be heard !! :3 adding on to that maybe we could open a feedback form so the managers could all talk about the feedback put into the remixes Eliminate social hierarchy and reduce drama. That is my main goal i cant type any more help me my mind has gone blank section 7 people who are helpful to the gaehive enviornment (continued in comments)
