Well the patience and the constructive criticism part should not be a major issue for anyone here who does a proper job . Basically those requirements describe mature persona for applying

I had not applied for the anima GM thingy due to time constraints then, However of the people who had applied last time I had felt Tizzy,Adie and Venomed were excellent candidates. Lightning was the greatest of all forum staff ever, that guy was cool and could not be provoked by rants. Lastly I felt PR wouldve made a great Forum staff member too, PR could actually stop rants in the ranters. No one to date has that ability.

Lightning was cool, he was just hardly ever around.

I asked my friend if i was qualify to be a GM....one of them laughed themselves into a coma.....and the other said if I ever become a GM i would cause the destruction of AnthemRO society as we know it......=\ hurtful words.......

[Akishira]

One of the lesser known qualifications for a GM/admin is impeccable grammar as far as English goes (as this is the main language of communication).

It fits quite neatly under the "* Other than Customer Service type qualifications (professional, manners, and such)" and "* Ability to communicate clearly & efficiently" points.

That alone.... eliminates quite a lot of people who would like to be part of the team.

Well i feel people would use Microsoft word to make their applications look neat , lol.

Though very rare , even GMs make mistakes with grammar sometimes. I am under the impression - that they run every post of theirs under MS word for complete syntactic sweetness .

[Lander]

Good Grammer Ha there goes any chance of me as a GM LOL

[A.D.DFreak]

LMAO at least your honest lander XD
