1) What is your name and preferred nickname?

My name is Amanda Shadowcloud. I go by Mandy!

2) What timezone are you in? How active are you? (Include screenshot of your recent times either here or at the end of your application)

I am in the Eastern time zone. Here is my activeness:

If you look at the active streaks there was a few weeks where I didn't check in. This is because I had nothing to really get on for and had no friends! Now I try to get on everyday. If I was somehow chosen to be a curator, I would be much more active. I would put more of my work into being one.

3) How much time are you willing to spend if you are chosen as a curator?

If I was chosen curator, I would have to step up my game on that activeness! If being in so many groups affects me, I might choose to leave one of them or take a break from it for awhile. While I love all the groups I'm in, I'm willing to make sacrifices to become a curator and to help the community.

Looking at the other s, and how they do their jobs in the community, shows that to be a curator takes a lot of time that I'm willing to sacrifice to do the job I'd get if I got curator.

4) What does being a curator mean to you? Why do you want to be one?

Being a curator is a huge responsibility. You have to be a good example for others. If you went against the rules, how are others supposed to follow them? They will simply think, " Well, hey this leader didn't follow this rule, so why should I?" If I was a curator, I would take into to treat others fairly. Say for instance, my friend was getting in a fight with someone I didn't know or like too much but the friend was not doing what was right. I would have to tell the friend that they should not be fighting over something like that. I should also tell the other person, depending on what their actions were, that they should not have promoted the fight, and instead went to a curator straight away instead of making up more drama. It's important to treat others fairly, and not give your friends advantages, just because they are well, your friend.

Another thing curators do, is help out the community by giving information and telling people where to start in things. For example, if you own a group an supervising curator helps you grow your group, while also give helpful tips to become official.

Being a curator means you have to be mature in your decisions, helpful, true to your promise in doing your job, and active.

5) Do you have any past experience as a (either curator or leader) on any Amino? (If yes, provide links to the communities even if you are no longer a mod there)

Yes! I do have experience in being a in the amino Thunder Champions Legacy. This amino is for my club. The original owner gave me the rank leader. I am still a leader in the amino as well as being the club owner.

I know how to do the following:

•Feature a post

•Accept into the amino if it's locked

•Accept wiki submits

•Delete a message in a chat or delete a post (I basically know how to delete everything)

• Send a strike to a member

•Add A post to the pinned stuff

There's so many things I know how to do from my experience being a mod on my club amino. I hope if I get curator I could use this information to my advantage and do my job well!

6) Are you a Star Rider?

Yep! I've been star rider ever since I ed sso!

7) List three of a curator’s responsibilities.

There's so many! But here are the main ones:

•Making sure posts follow the amino theme

•Featuring Posts

• Being active

•Help those who need it

•Try to prevent drama from happening or stop it when it does start.

8) If someone in the Amino was starting drama publicly, how would you handle it?

It's important you don't promote the drama. If it were me, I would sort it out in PM. Getting everyone who was involved into the chat. Depending on the situation, I would probably warn them if it was something that held a huge consequence, and if they continued to do it, I would give them their consequence. The consequence depends on the situation like I said before. I would try to solve the drama as soon as possible, finding the best possible way.

9) Link 2-3 posts that you would feature as a Curator.

1. Lonely Angel's Post

This post should be featured because you can tell it's extremely creative and has a lot of effort put into it! Of course I would make sure this was her post before featuring it. I also like how she put a little say... description under it! Giving it more uniqueness!

2. Bethany's Post

I'm so speechless! This is amazingly done and deserves a nice feature. I would need to make sure she drew this though. It has a lot of detail and shows the time put into it.

3. Stormy's post

Another Fabulous post that deserves a feature! She also gave proof here! I love the winter theme. It's so pleasing to my eye.
