Hey! Oldbies! Want to be E-Mentors?
Jun. 19th, 2002 10:03 am![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png){kind=small}
heidiAs you may know, FA is approaching its one year anniversary, and we have over 6000 registered members. Some of our oldbies have offered to give the newbies a bit of a guided tour around FA and the fandom, and we've decided that we would really appreciate the help!
We're now recruiting "E-Mentors" - oldbies who will be the friendly face of FA to a few newbies a month.
So if you're an oldbie (in other words, if you've been a registered user since at least April Fool's Day), take a look at the application at the bottom of this post. The, cut & paste the answers into an email, put your User Name and the word "EMENTOR" in the subject, and send the email to E-Mentor@schnoogle.com. Note that if you've accrued more than one point for ToU violations in the past four months, you'll have to wait for the next round of E-Mentor selections, which will be some time this fall. Anyone who committs to being an E-Mentor has to be available at least 3 weeks out of 4 for the summer.
You don't have to answer every question correctly - but you do have to get at least 75% of them right. Remember - all the answers are on FA (including on the Point Me! page), and if you're really an oldbie, you should know them. If you don't know the answers, you're probably still a newbie and we loff you and you should wait a few more months before you apply to be an E-Mentor.
1. How long has FA been around?
2. How are the reviewboards for Schnoogle organized (choose one):
a. Alphabetically by SHIP
b. alphabetically by author
c. alphabetically by story title
3. What are the urls for the pages that list all the new fics for
each house?
HINT: http://www.schnoogle.com/_______________
http://www.thedarkarts.org/_______________
http://www.astronomytower.org/_______________
http://www.riddikulus.org/_______________
4. What is one of the pages you should go to if you want to submit a fic to FA?
5. Has OOTP come out yet? And when is the movie of CoS coming out in the UK and US (month and year sufficient).
6. Where should someone submit an HP poem?
7. What is a Schnoogle (points given for accuracy *and* creativity)
8. I want to post my signature five times in one thread. Can I? Why or why not?
9. Where do I go if I want to post about the results of this cool
quiz I took?
10. What's a Private Owl?
11. Where can I plug my fanfic? (list at least 3 places)
12. Kan I p0st fix splld lk this?!???????
13. Who is Simon Branford and why should anyone care? Name at least three other mods/admins/FATechies and explain what they do around here.
14. What is slash?
15. What is a ship?
16. Where can I complain about a mod?
17. Where is the full text search box for fics?
Enjoy! And we hope to hear from a lot of you oldbies!

Date: 2002-06-19 11:10 am (UTC)Since I am a mod, and obviously therefore will know the answers to these questions, do I still have to take the test? And also, are mods even allowed to become E-Mentors? Because it sounds like FUN!

Date: 2002-06-19 03:06 pm (UTC)But I've been with the place since October! There's some credit...I suppose.
What would one do exactly?
