Oooooh man, good luck on your minimod application !!! <3

Lol your HA atm is definitely winning in the creepy factor! :o

, I really liked one outfit from last year that I want to wear again but I think it'd be good to also try a few new looks for the dance. And I need to get better on my spending habits too. I blew so much sp on ...I don't even know what after getting the shop till achievement. D: Where'd it all go?! Maybe there's a hole in my pocket. XD

I dont know how the hell I did it, but I somehow set some oil on the stove on fire D:

It happened in the length of time to take a quick bathroom break.

Saw the fire, turned off the heat, found something to cover it with to see if that worked. Since it was a cookie sheet (we really dont have tops for the pots and pans we have) it didnt turn out so well. Got a oven mitt, and took the thing outside.

THAT took a while since I had animals I had to nearly kick out of my way, and the screen door kept slamming shut on me.

THANKFULLY nothing caught fire after that (save for a small spot on screen door, which went out). Got a neighbor to see if she could help. Had to take off my shirt to let my neighbor use it to move the pot to the parking lot (Thank GOD I had a bra on, and it was dark).

Two neighbors tried to put water on it (which even I know you NEVER DO). Then one of the 'water neighbors' found a fire extinguisher and tried to use it...DIdnt work. The next one did though.

Noone was hurt (me or animals), and the other things ruined were the pot and cookie sheet.

Harry Potter inspired dresses! !!

Same, I had some things on my WL that I went ahead and bought, and then of course this new backdrop when the monthly collection came out because I just had to have it. But no more spending for me for a while anymore, I need to get back up to where I was before at least.

Yeah, I guess they wouldn't have much reason to hire any new admins unless a current one leaves. But being a mod would still be a nice way to continue to help out, since you're around here so often anyway.

On no! Well it seems the situation turned out pretty good, all things considered. Glad no one was hurt and there wasn't too much damage. If it ever happens again and trying to cover it doesn't work, put baking soda on it if you have any.

Yeah they only hire when someone leaves or they're looking to expand (which I doubt happens often in either case) I'd love to do it if the opportunity arises.

Dang nice snags :) I got the miasma earlier, now I want the other wig. I have some fun ideas for both of them. Glad you got your app in. Good luck! Do you mind me asking what forum you're applying to?

I got the miasma both times, though the second one a friend wanted and she gave me 500 tokens or it. not the profit I wanted but I'll always help out a friend.

I applied to S&I and Advertising as a backup. S&I is heavily preferred by me and I'm a bit sad that battle and feedback aren't getting more mods, but I'd be happy with S&I. though if they wanted they could put me as a mod of all of the forums (besides the avatar ones, I don't go there!) and I'd be able to do it easily haha. maybe I'm underestimating things, but as it is already I read a majority of the threads.

That's really nice :) Tokens are always useful since you can use them to snag potions and make quite a lot of sp off of those.

You'd be great in S&I. You know how the site works and which suggestions have been denied or discussed before (or at least most of them!).

I have like 20k so they aren't something I worry about often xD

That just comes from having a decent memory and being active. I'm sure I could do it, but boy do those forums need cleaned up. So many things need locked or moved

Agreed. It would be great if a lot of them could be consolidated since people suggest very similar things often. Plus I think you have an idea of which ideas would actually benefit the site, and the staff rarely have a chance to dig through them all.

I have my ideas, but I'm not sure how they line up with staff's ideas xD some things seem overly complicated for the minimal benefit they'd bring.

Wow that is awesome! Maybe if there ever was a need for another admin that'd give you a leg up! And congrats on getting two wigs, that's awesome you helped your friend out though. I missed the wig the first time, so grabbed the book. Got the wig second time though. :D (Miasma one.)

Oh man that is scary! I'm glad you weren't hurt and there wasn't more damage done but sheesh... Surprise adventure for the evening. o_o

Good luck gettin back up to where you were. :D I need to stop being lazy and get more questing in so I can do the same. Wooooooo!

I like most of your ideas thus far :) A minimal benefit if it benefits everyone would probably be welcome and would probably be met with a lot of love from the users. With all the 502/504 errors/lag lately, anything that helps the site from the users' perspective is a good thing for morale.

When they hire UAs they do hire from the pool of minis, and I just noticed a UA left so they will probably hire one of the older minis, but I'll need experience first before I'd ever get hired as a UA. If they ever had an apprentice item admin position open up I'd love to do that though :)

The wig the first time went really really fast, I got the 4th to last one or so haha

If the amount of work that is needed to implement it is too much though and everyone only kinda slightly benefits from it, the idea is better left undone so something more important can be done instead. 502/504/ are contiually being looked into but they're having a hard time pinpointing what exactly is the problem. It has somehing to do with aws being a bit different than rackspace and their settings are not optimal

Yeah whoever gets picked will probably be pretty busy right away, going through all those old things and cleaning everything up. I guess that's what happens when there isn't a mod for the forum for too long.

I've been questing, but I keep seeing things I want and buying impulsively. I need to stop that for a while. xD

Yeah a busy first few hours but after that, upkeep wouldn't take too long.

Rofl, well I do that too cause sometimes an item on the wishlist is halfway forgotten about. But if I buy it impulsively then wham, done! XD ...probably not the best habit though, I must agree. XD

That's true , makes sense to get some new minimods in before picking a veteran one to advance a step. Still, if you're still that active around the site come the next time, I think you'd have one heck of a chance. =) Either way, just getting to clean up the forums a bit would be awesome.

Gah, battling this cold for several days now, it just won't leave! This morning it was more in my chest than my head. Coughed so hard I almost puked. XD Sorry in advance, just hitting that whiny "I'm sick of being sick" stage, hopefully all this vitamin c kicks its butt soon. x_x

Having trouble finding shoes that I like for this outfit, I guess I'll just be barefoot in space :P

That's true. I haven't looked too much at some of the other forums they're hiring for, but I guess most are probably in a similar state of mess right now.

Yeah, I keep looking at my WL and thinking well it's not that expensive I could just buy it now. But if I do that for everything, it adds up too fast.

I hope you feel better soon! It seems like colds and allergies are really causing some trouble right now.
