GM recruitment!
For whatever reason I keep getting pms asking if this thing is still on (regardless of how I'm not a gm anymore) well the answer is no, it is no longer going. However gms are always accepting applications, and if you wish to send in an application I suggest you send it to any full gm or the user Risk
Hello members of the toribash community, it's that time again! Step up to the plate for a chance to join our little team that is the face of Nabi.
What does a GM do?
Being a GM is no easy feat. In fact, many say that being a GM is the hardest job in Toribash.
With the teal name in the forums and dark red name in-game, all people can see that you are someone with power. Those people know answers to their questions. Those people do all the cool things in Toribash. Those people fucked up, so I can blame them. Those people banned me for no reason, so I have to be mean to them. Despite all the weird things that come to you, you have to act as the smiling face of Nabi, because that's what you are.
You will be working with people, so being outgoing and personable is a great plus.
You will be doing events for people, so creativity is a big thing here.
You will have lots of power, so you need to be reliable.
You will be in many situations which require a good sense of judgment.
Being active and enthusiastic is a necessity as a GM.
Last, but not least, ability to handle the above-mentioned stress.
There are no requirements regarding belts, ranks, in-game skills, post counts, join dates, knowing the current GMs, alt accounts or the like.
...Then, why be a GM?
Because holy shit it's amazing to be able to see your own work being appreciated by the masses
And the feeling of helping out people is always a nice feeling.
Of course this differs from person to person, but the point is that sure, it's hard, but it ain't like it's just suffering ;)
The application itself is free-form, but including your GMT is a necessity.
The application should be sent to Tonakai during these next two weeks, last day being 12. of February.
Also by the way if you've already applied within the last ~month don't send in a new application please (may want to make sure if you're still being considered, though).
If you need help with making your application, Dargon's done a nice tutorial exactly for that.
And now a few words for the gm team itself, all quotes are anonymous.

- GMs (Game Masters) host events and take care of in-game moderation. They aim to keep people entertained and keep toribash interesting.

The usertitle will be given to you if you make it past trial GM. It will be removed once you quit or once you are fired from the team. You won't need those things to do the GM job, and broadcasts as a GM are free; however, should only be used for GM work. That is to say if you're a GM, you shouldn't be using your free broadcast privileges to get people to check out your twitch.tv stream.
Just making sure I got this snippet correct: So then you could broadcast, say, a betting server for free. Just no useless posts or marketing advertisements, as it says in the global page?

Precisely tophats, anything that goes under the normal broadcasts, such as tourneys or betting servers, those will go, but no useless stuff

Ah, so the trial gm part...your name automatically becomes red ingame if you made it past trial. But SOMEONE told me that it automatically becomes red once you're trial. ~Qubic.

When you are in spectator mode, your name as a trail is yellow, in queue it is red and in chat, i only think this because i think i saw it o ishi, its a little brighter red than a full GM
