In Elftown, everyone can do something to help or contribute to the community. You can create wiki-pages that explain how to draw dragons, or pages for meeting like-minded people. Everyone can report members that don't follow the uploading art rules or who just aren't behaving. Check out Elftown - Contribution and Contribute for all the various ways in which you can help our community.

But some people want to - and have the time to - help in bigger ways; by maintaining official Competitions, or running projects like the ECM, or even helping with some of the features on Main Street. Of course, if we spot people like that ourselves then we're happy to let them join our ranks without them having to apply. But there are only a few of us, and many of us are busy doing all the fore-mentioned things! So if you have the time, and really want to help out more, then this page is here to help you get our attention, and to help us find the people who are prepared to dedicate lots of their time to running Elftown without any reward!

Note: Please don't apply to be a guard! We don't make anyone a guard without first making sure that we can trust them as a council member. So apply to council and then if you get onto the Council you can start thinking of guard work.

But here is your chance to get the power, badges and all other fancy stuff that really shouldn't be the reason for why you apply to the crew!

Requirements

1) You need a good general knowledge of Elftown. If you can't handle everything about forums, polls, wiki-pages and know the Elftown rules, then it's no use applying yet.

2) You need to be able to read and write English well.

3) Your goals with Elftown should agree with Elftown's. If you want to go berserk on everyone who looks ugly, then don't apply!

4) You should have proven yourself. As written above, you don't need any permission to do most stuff here on Elftown. Even if you only have created the big boobs dragons competition, are running the forum "Medieval fencing" that no one uses and have written a pretty bad report, it's better than someone who just says they can do all this, but never did.

5) You should explain what you will do as a member of the crew and for how long. Note: We don't want newbies that get all excited by Elftown for a month and then will get tired of it. Therefore, people who have been for a long time are generally better.

6) You should be able to get along with the sullen assholes in the crew (see Council for a list), and have a great patience with people...

7) You should think this is fun!

8) If you can come up with an eighth point, it shows that you have ideas. Good! Now, be one of the people who will carry out the ideas well, and you're all set to join.

Deadline

There is no deadline! This goes on forever and good applications get picked at any time. If you aren't chosen, that can be because we're not so sure about you. However, we can change our minds if you help us (see Sorting, below).

Sorting and tips

Your application will be put in one of the three sections: high, medium or low.

Low means your application and/or membership needs a lot of improvement before we can consider you.
What to do: Try to fulfill the requirements listed above, correct your spelling and make sure you are following the Uploading Art Rules.

Medium means your application is OK in the basics, but there could be things you can improve.
What to do: Think of making your application more interesting, contributing to the community, participating in the forums or reporting UAR-violators. Members with a note have a shot at 'high' if they follow what the note says.

High is the shortlist from which we pick new crew members. This is a slow process because crew newbies need someone to mentor them and something to do (otherwise they might get confused or bored and leave).
What to do: Look around for places and projects that need more crew love, or think of new things the crew should take care of (and why). Hang out in the Elftown, {something} forums (Newbie Questions, Suggestions etc.). Volunteer to help wherever you can be helpful. And, of course, don't be shy to update and improve your application page :)

General guidelines
Remember, the amount of text does not make it better. However, showing proper (British) English, your Elftown work and interests does. Try to stand out from the rest.
Be active in wikis, forums or as patroller. Showing your effort in building and being a part of Elftown will also make you stand out.

We will not explain what exactly your application is missing. If we have something to say, then you'll hear from us. Also, please do not message the crew members to apply for an opening (say, Featured Member Boss), but include the interest in your application. You may ask active Bosses what their work entails.

If your house is inactive for fourty(40) days or more your application will be moved to inactive member applications.
