Hey all! BlogTeam is looking to add some more members to our roster to replace some members who are going on hiatus and taking much needed breaks and to help us with exciting projects going forward! This means we’re opening up moderator applications!
If you have a little time each week and want to help keep the blog running, feel free to send in an application! Please only apply if you are genuinely interested and available for the foreseeable future.

Before we get into what roles the new mods will take on, let’s go over some guidelines. These will be reiterated on the forms themselves, but just so there’s no surprises during the actual application, I’ll lay them out here š
- To apply to be a moderator, you must be 14 or older
- You must be able to chat with the other mods over Discord
- If you are under 18 years old, please have parental permission
- We ask that you only apply if you have been on the blog for at least a year

You might be asking why we have these guidelines, so let me explain!
Firstly, we have a lower age limit because we know that the job requires a lot of experience in time management, organization, de-escalation of conflicts, and overall maturity. This is not to say that everyone younger than 14 doesn’t have those qualities: of course! I’m sure you are all very organized and mature and we know you’re all wonderful! But as one gets older, they acquire more personal experiences and a broader perspective, which can help hone all of the traits we’re looking for. The time management and organization required is also why we ask that if you’re under 18, you talk with your parents or guardians about this role.
Discord is the platform that BlogTeam primarily uses to communicate – this is why we ask that you have a Discord account.
Lastly, all you new members are lovely, but we ask that you only apply if you’ve been here for at least a year, because that gives us some indication that you will stick around for a while longer! It’s totally alright to hang out with us as a regular member for a couple weeks and then move on if you want, but if you’re going to be a mod, we need to know that you’ll be around for a bit!

We’re looking for a few new mods who can help us out with some projects we’re looking to restart and to help keep the blog running smoothly.
Birthday/Clanniversary Tsars – makes posts for birthdays or Clanniversaries alongside managing the calendar.
Trailing Stars: The Graphic Novel Tsar – in charge of organizing and supervising the project.
General Moderator – moderates comments, supervises Live Chat, and takes on other roles here and there.
Some other roles are smaller or time specific, so we will divide up the smaller projects based on the number of mods we’ll take on, and your availability/preference. You’ll be able to specify what projects in particular you’d be interested in doing, but be prepared, if you get chosen, to do some general comment modding regardless!
APPLICATIONS HAVE CLOSED.
Applications will CLOSE on September 30th and after that, we will not be accepting any new applications. Please get your applications in before then if you plan to apply!
Write as much as you need – there’s no word limit! But let us know why you feel you’d be a good fit for the job, why you want to help out, and even, if you want, some relevant experience!
We’re going to be doing something a little different this round. š This time, we’re not actually going to announce our chosen applicants right after we finish choosing them, but rather wait until we’ve talked to and trained our applicants for their new duties. It’ll mean that people will be waiting in suspense a little longer, but we’d rather have our new mods be prepared and informed in advance what will be part of their jobs.
Please note: We do not know when the new mods will be announced, please be patient!
And as a last message, from all of us, we thank all of you members for being awesome, and we really appreciate anyone who offers to help us out. You’re all fabulous! Have a wonderful day!
