How to Write a Moderator Application

Guide for applying to the Los Angeles Team.

This guide explains how to apply, how long it may take, and how to answer each question in your application. Website Activity is how we track helpful users, you should have a high amount of solutions, likes on your posts and support from the Community. Make sure when you make your application, you add a poll on behalf of yourself, asking if you are the right person to be elected as a moderator.

How to Apply

You can apply at any time by visiting the Moderator Applications section of the forum. https://larp5.xyz/forum/2-staff-applications/

How Long Will It Take?

Applications can take a few days to a few weeks to be reviewed. Each application is carefully reviewed based on the answers provided and your moderation history. If we request updates and you don’t respond, your application may be denied.

If You’re Denied

You may re-apply after 2 weeks. Use that time to grow your reputation, show improvement, and become more involved with the community.
