Looking for a new mod!  
Hello, Academy goers! Rose Marie here, speaking on behalf of the headmod team.

We're currently looking for another mod to add to our crew, specifically for the position of Advertizing Mod. None of us have done a very good job with ads and enabling since the opening of the game, and we believe this is part of the reason things have slowed down so drastically. We need new blood, though neither headmod has the time nor the energy to devote to facing this issue head on. Hence why we're looking to add someone/a new position to our team!

What this position entails:
✨ Advertizing on App This Please and RPAnons every time a new post goes up
✨ Enabling/offering the game as a suggestion on those comms as well as ICly on Dear_mun and Dear_player with friendliness, politeness, understanding, and tact
✨ Enabling where you can on OOC communities, like Plurk, with friendliness, politeness, understanding, and tact
✨ Replurking Disney Academy mod plurks, such as app/reserve dates

Preferences
✨ MUST have plurk
✨ HTML/coding experience for ads; even simple ones without tables require being familiar with it
✨ Plenty of spare time to dedicate to going around on the communities, OOCly and ICly
✨ Ability to work on Pacific Standard Timezone times, even if you live in a different zone
✨ Previous modding experience can be helpful, but not mandatory
✨ You do NOT have to currently be a part of the game to apply


Note that this position deals solely with advertizement, promotions, and enabling. This position will not be a voice for the mod team overall, as it will not deal with reviewing applications, plot decisions, maintenance of the game, activity checks, damage control, and administration. However, we're sure this position will prove to be incredibly important to the lifespan of the game and hopefully the increased influx of new blood.

If you would like to be considered for the position, please PM this account, PP the Disney Academy mod plurk, or email the Disney Academy mod email at disneyacademymod at gmail dot com. Please list any experience you think would make you a good candidate for the position!

Thank you, and good luck!

ACTIVITY CHECK  
Please comment below before November 22nd with your evidence of activity.


You must provide any one of the following:
✨ A post in the Main Comm
✨ A post in the Log Comm
✨ Links to current threads; the comments (tags) must add up to 20, 10 of which are consecutive in the same thread.

Requirements:
✨ All material presented must fall into the activity period of October 1st - November 22nd
((Note: this will make more sense in future ACs; this is a little silly right now due to this being our first one, but it's mostly here for formality's sake))

✨ The material used as activity evidence must show that the threads (either in your own post or someone else's) have not have been dropped within the first 5-10 comments, unless the thread has reached a natural stopping point or conclusion. It's perfectly fine if the threads are still ongoing, but dropped threads will not do!
✨ Posts and threads in our optional comm, [community profile] hankypanky, do not count towards AC.

Characters who are not accounted for on this AC post by November 22nd will automatically be put onto the Warning List. If they are on the warning list and still unaccounted for during the following Activity Check, they will automatically be dropped from the game.

Characters accepted after October 25th are exempt from this AC. If you believe you need a special exemption, please present your case to a mod!

Exemptions:
Jack Frost (Hiatus) [Mod note to self: AC posted]
Merida (Hiatus)
Mulan (Hiatus)
William Turner (Hiatus)
Raven (New Character)
Loki (New Character)
Lydia Martin (New Character)

Warning:
N/A

AC Results will be posted on November 23rd! Good luck!

ACTIVITY CHECK COUNTDOWN  
That's right, Academy! In just under a week, we'll be having our first Activity Check!

AC will go from November 15th-22nd. During that time, you must comment to the AC post with the proper evidence of activity. Characters who are not accounted for on the AC post will automatically be put on the Warning List. If they are on the warning list and still unaccounted for during the following Activity Check, they will automatically be dropped from the game. After the AC period is up, we will post the results of who passed, who is on the warning list, who is exempt (either due to being accepted into the game too soon to an AC or due to hiatus), and who has been dropped (this section will be blank this first AC thanks to the warning system).

While we'll reiterate them on the actual AC post next week, if you need a refresher on what the AC requirements are, please look back to the Rules Page!

The AC Post will appear here in the Mod Comm this upcoming Friday, so make sure you're actively following it/getting emailed updates!

Good luck!
