Set Me Free!
Is Looking
For Your Help!
As a fresh start-up forum, Set Me Free is looking for creative and talented people who not only want to be part of the community but help to build and expand it. True, SMF is meant to be a place where all forum members have creative input and decision-making power, but as with any forum the staff and specialists can have a tremendous impact on any number of things that impact the community at large.
That's why we're looking for a few good adventurers! This thread will be used to post openings for staff, council, and specialist roles. To apply, simply fill out the form below and submit in this thread -- keep in mind that some positions, like council and specialist jobs, may additionally involve an interview or additional questions, especially for those members who are new to the forums.
POSITION DESIRED: (The opening you'd like to apply for. Check the list at the bottom of this thread for current openings. Keep in mind that you can apply for a role even if there is no opening; however such applications may not be reviewed as quickly as others.)
QUALIFICATIONS: (Tell us briefly why you think you're qualified for this position. Qualifications don't have to be elaborate things -- this isn't a resume, after all. If you have previous experiences on other forums, such as staff, leadership, or support roles, describe those briefly. Personal characteristics, such as creativity and interpersonal skills, can also be listed as qualifications. This is just to give us a quick snapshot of you as a roleplayer and a person, something to start the discussion with. You can be as casual or formal, as direct or as expansive as you like, though generally the more you can tell us about your qualifications the easier it is for us to evaluate your suitability.)
WHY ARE YOU INTERESTED IN THIS ROLE?: (Briefly discuss your interest in the forum role you're applying for.)

POSITIONS OPEN
STAFF
Admin Council (2 Openings)
All members of the Admin Council are respected and trusted overseers of the Set Me Free community, as much servants of the people who roleplay here as they are their leaders. All members of the Council carry equal rank and importance to the forum; applying for this role will involve both an interview with one or more current Council members (applicants should have a Skype account and microphone for this) as well as a temporary placement in a suitable staff position to evaluate their leadership and management skills.
SPECIALISTS
Slayers Loremaster (1 Opening)
Set Me Free is based chiefly on the iteration of Slayers presented in the anime, movies, and OVAs -- however, the Council know that Slayers is much more expansive than that. There are the light novels, manga, radio dramas, and video games as well, along with other official and unofficial materials that the forum could benefit from. An applicant for this role should be familiar with most or all of these additional materials and, preferably, be able to read Japanese as well -- at a minimum, the Council is looking for someone who is knowledgeable about the Slayers light novels, as these were the original source materials from which all the animated products sprung. Applicants for this role will need to prove they know more than can be found with a simple search of the Internet to qualify. The Admin Council will rely on the Loremaster's insights as advice for plot and story developments.
Forum Skin / Code Expert (1 Openings)
The current forum skin on Set Me Free was amateurishly assembled by Nascent using a skin crafted by Smangii of the Slightly Insane forums. While it's functional and not wholly unsightly, it needs polish to say the least. The Forum Skin / Code Expert (FSC Expert) should have experience designing, modifying, and coding forum skins for ProBoards and have previous work available to demonstrate their skills. Since such work is time consuming and specialized, the FSC Expert can claim a bounty in Loot, AP, or even cash commissions (via PayPal) for their work; these will all be negotiated with the Admin Council in advance, with one consistent term for payout: half now, half later.
