As many of you many have noticed I've been spending less and less time on gaia over the past year or so. Much of this has more to do with personal reasons but as a result I feel that I haven't been doing a very good job of maintaining this guild. Since I feel it's unfair of me to retain ownership of the guild due to my lack of active participation I am opening up this thread to see who would be interested in continuing on the spirit of this guild.
Duties of a Captain Include: ~ Picking good moderators ~ Keeping things fun and interesting ~ Punishing people who actively break the rules ~ Making sure the rules are being followed ~ Making fair and just rulings on gray areas
Since this guild really is something I've cared about for a long time, I would like to be able to retain a moderator status so I can still check in periodically and help out on occasion. Since this is a big change I would ask people to please answer a few questions.
Quote: What direction do you see yourself taking this guild? How long have you been active in the guild? What changes would you like to make to the current structure? Have you ever run a guild before? Do you feel like you've ever had troubles in the guild that haven't been addressed? What is your least favorite thing about the guild as it is currently? How often do you spend time in the guild? Do you like to create games to help involve others? How do you usually handle stressful situations? What is your definition of goth?
I will read through the answers given, and eventually choose who I feel to be the best next mistress, captain, and guiding light to bring this guild towards becoming what it should be instead of letting it languish in the half life it currently seems to experience.

First of all let me say - thanks for letting me into the guild. I'm really looking forward to meeting all of you wonder:full people.
Secondly, since I am relatively new to Gaia (I've had my synunoi account for a few years, and just opened this one up for a personal account... my synunoi account is my RPC mostly) I wouldn't feel comfortable applying for such an important position. However, I would be interested in helping to moderate the guild if the soon-to-be new owner, and the other mods were okay with that.
I've helped to moderate communities online at Live Journal, and have even had my own community back in the day (it was a community for my used-to-be website spoOkie poOpie, co-hosted by my friend Lee Lee).
I do believe that I'd be a great addition to the team, and I'd really like to get things going here on Gaia, as I'm quite fond of this website.
Sorry if this post isn't necessarily "on topic," but I felt it necessary to say here, because of the importance of this post.
Thanks for taking the time to read this post, and I look forward to hearing what you guys think.
ToOdLes!

Blackrose Kaire Rellik San All I can really say is... look at my posts... look at how much people respect or at least tolerate me and look at how much I have contributed, if that is not enough, then I suggest discuss it with the mods and see if one of them will take control. Although personally I would recommends one of the following 3: xWraith LordxSpooky_Sez Verunial I also think xWraith Lordx would be good, she does seem to want and try to keep the guild active. smile *Blushes*
Awww thanks guys. 3nodding I'll think about it before applying, I want to make sure I have enough time to devote to the guild first.

What direction do you see yourself taking this guild?
I want to give people a reason to come here whenever they’re on Gaia. I’d like to have more contests and events to bring the guild together and make it more exciting, and also some new and interesting topics that they can discuss. That’s about it. Anything more major should be talked about with the rest of the guild first…
How long have you been active in the guild? About two years I’d say…
What changes would you like to make to the current structure?
There really isn’t anything that is in dire need of fixing in my opinion. If there’s anything wrong that I’d want to fix, I’d ask the guild on their opinion before I changed anything. The only reason I would change something without informing the guild and asking their thoughts was if there was a serious issue that was being ignored, but I would never let anything come to that point.
Have you ever run a guild before?
Never. I’ve been a debate moderator before though (in real life).
Do you feel like you've ever had troubles in the guild that haven't been addressed? I’ve never had any trouble here.
What is your least favorite thing about the guild as it is currently?
The quality of the posts and the activity of the users…some people just post “hey I like that band too they are on my iPod” and then they never come back to the guild or they hardly ever add to anything except a member count. I just wish people would be a little more involved, but I certainly wouldn’t punish anyone if they weren’t.
How often do you spend time in the guild?
Almost daily, I surf around and post whenever I have something serious (or funny and joking) to say. I might have to cut back a bit as school starts again.
Do you like to create games to help involve others? Oh yes! Of course! *smiles broadly and eerily*I will make the Got Goth Guild an excellent place to stimulate your endorphins and bring people together! If this counts, I’m always the ice-breaker at parties and such.
How do you usually handle stressful situations? Keep calm; try to get a little organized. Don’t lose your head and get a heart attack, (nothing will be accomplished then), and look at all sides of the problem (if there is one) to try and fix it. Take everything into account, and work with others to find the best possible solution. If it’s just a matter of getting things done, do things one at a time.
What is your definition of Goth?
Ooh, the fun part…My definition of Goth is, in no particular order: 1) A fan of Goth rock (the real stuff, not Manson and such). 2) Someone who dresses in a gothic fashion and enjoys the more material bits of the subculture. 3) Someone who enjoys other aspects of Goth, such as the various literature and art styles.
Of course this is all subjective to a degree, there are people who’d completely disagree with me about #2, and there are people who might only agree with me about #3. *shrugs*No problem, I like it when people have their own opinions.
