.::Aeria Mobile Game Sage Applications::.

It is very important that you read this entire post before submitting your application. Failure to properly submit your application will result in disqualification.

Deadline: 10/31/2012 12:00pm PST

There are two parts to this application. Part I is to be posted as a response to this thread, and will be visible to everyone on the forums. Part II will be submitted via RT (please select Monster Paradise from Contact Us) and only the GM team will read it.

Because Part I is viewable by everyone, and Game Sages have a very public face, we feel it is important to ask the community for their feedback on the applicants. Do not post this feedback here, it will be removed. We have created a thread for you to do so here.

While we are mostly looking for Game Sages on our forums, we are accepting applicants who do not have a huge forum presence as well.

Remember to be truthful in all of your answers. When applications close, the thread will be locked and I will begin the application review process.

If you have any questions about the application or the Game Sage position, feel free to send a PM to any of the Mobile Game Masters!

2. I have had experience on hosting events at like charity days and activity days where ive been committed to what I need to do so id be committed to monster paradise.
3. The experience I have in helping others is I put it in my way of how id like to be helped solve something so then ill see where there coming from and help them beyond the best as I can.
4. Well I have the experience from monster paradise and I see how hard the gs work and id like to be apart of that.
5. A Game sage is someone that wants to volunteer for a place in aerie even in other games they want to be apart. A good game sage has to be a responsible member who would take pride in his place to be in that position. Always out to help one and another, having respect, being polite a everyday routine. The main thing to being a game sage is to follow the rules at all times.
6. I want to be a game sage because ive always wanted to be that responsible person to take care of people point them in right directions its like a motive for me. So far monster paradise is that game id like to be apart of even though I am apart of it now just want to be that someone where people look up to me and say like “he’s a great gs nice to have that helping hand from him”. Ill be committed to my fullest to show I deserve the spot.
7. Too keep confidentiality is not to Tell any member not of the Arie games any up coming deals, Events, New release nothing that ive been told not to tell anyone.

1. What community contributions have you made that shows you would make a good Game Sage?
I have contributed a guide for the community with the help from others so players have a decent understanding of a basic function in the game (fusing). Another contribution I have made is giving help to players who have had questions regarding the game.

2. What experience do you have running/hosting organizational events?
I do not have a large amount of experience of running/hosting organizational events but one reference I can use is my Guess2Win events in Monster Paradise which is quite organized with a set of rules I have created and enforce for people participating in the event.

3. What experience do you have helping people find solutions to their problems?
I have an adequate experience with helping people find solutions to their problems. My experience comes from helping family and friends to other players in-game.

4. What experience do you have with the Aeria forum community (Any game, not necessarily Mobile)?

A Game Sage is someone who volunteers their time to help people with less knowledge of a game. The responsibility of a Game Sage is to help answer questions about the game and to be a good example for other players to copy. A good Game Sage in my opinion is someone who has a willingness to help players.

6. Why do you want to be a Game Sage for Mobile (and not another game)?
I want to be a Game Sage for Mobile (Monster Paradise) because I have played the game for a few months which has given me an acquired knowledge of the game which I would like to use to help others in the game.

7. Explain the importance of confidentiality in this position.
The importance of confidentiality in this position is highly stressed. Information that is meant to be kept from the public should remain as that. To share any information that is confidential could be seen as giving players and unfair advantage (cheating) or harmful to other players and impeding on their privacy.
