Default Abandonia needs YOU!

Last few weeks have been pretty turbulent for all of us, but in the wake of everything that happened one thing became quite obvious - over last year or two, more staff have lost interest in the site than have joined. We need moderators, we need updaters... and simply people to help with a dozen tiny yet important tasks.

It's been a long-standing custom that apart from offering staff membership to promising active members, the staff also accepts volunteers.

If you wish to join us and help with expanding Abandonia, you can file your application in the Recruitment Office.

PS. Due to certain incidents that happened in the past any volunteers will start small, with their access clearance and powers increased once they've sufficiently proven themselves.
Don't take offence for that, we're simply trying to avoid any possible incidents where someone accidentally wipes out half the archives from the server.

Sorry, where is the application form located? I didn't see one, though I may be overlooking it completely.

There's no application as such, just a 'Recruitment Office' sub-forum. Just post a thread there saying what you want to apply for.

perhaps it would be wise to start topics based on what sort of jobs you require, and then people can apply via that?

I have no idea if I have the ability or time to do anything, and wouldn't be able to tell you unless we get a few more details about what exactly is expected of future Abandonia employees!

Right now we're primarily looking for forum moderators, updaters and proofreaders.
Basically anyone willing to help and able to regularly spend some time on doing so is welcome.

Hi, Thunderclap.
There are several ways in which you can help us with expanding the site:
* Looking through your collection of old games, then posting a list of them in the Offers forum. We may be interested in ones we don't have on the site yet.
* Writing reviews. Ask one of the updaters for a list of games we currently have, but need reviews to add them on the site.
* Proof-reading and correcting reviews written by others. If you think that's the way to go, just ask one of the admins to add you to the Grammar Squad.
