You complete tool, the point of administrators is to guide the members, teach them good practices, typing like a mentally retarded leper isn't going to get you an admin position, ever. |

Before I start, I would like to just say that absolutely everything in my application is the complete truth, no lies whatsoever.
If you would like any more information about myself or would like me to answer any other questions, feel free to ask me. I can also give you links to the forums where I have worked previously, please also feel free to ask.
Why do you want to be an admin?
I would absolutely love to be an administrator of and own Swapitshop Lounge because I have been a dedicated member of the forum for such a long time now and this place just feels like home to me.
To be honest, I cannot really think of any other reasons why I would like to own the forum - it is virtually my 'online home'.
How much time do you have free to run the forum?
I have absolutely loads of free time which I can use to run Swapitshop Lounge.
As you know, I resigned from my position as moderator here on Swapitshop Lounge a couple of months ago in order to progress with my own forum.
To this day, I feel that the decision I made about resigning from moderator on Swapitshop Lounge was completely stupid.
I can tell you that the forum that I owned at the time is no longer owner by me. It was reletively active but I just didn't feel that it was going anywhere. The only thing that I actually got out of that forum was experience.
A few weeks ago, I decided to try again at running a forum with TEF (a forum which I currently co-own with Dannnz). I feel that it does have good potential to succeed; however, it just hasn't got going.
By this, what I am trying to say is that I do have alot of spare time on my hands due to the fact that I do not currently own an active website, therefore I would have plently of time to take control of Swapitshop Lounge.
If I was offered the position of administrator here at Swapitshop Lounge, I would definately leave my post at TEF and give my co-admin complete control there.
Do you have ideas to help take the forum forward?
I have quite a number of ideas for Swapitshop Lounge that I would use to make it a better place if I was given the job. I've decided that I am not going give any of my ideas away in this application, but I would like to say that alot of my ideas are based on trying to improve the 'fun' side of Swapitshop Lounge, which numerous members have said has disappeared from the forum in recent months.
Why should we make you admin?
I think that I should be picked as an administrator of Swapitshop Lounge because of my experience of running PhpBB forums. I know how to use every part of the PhpBB2 Administration Panel and also the Forum Control Panel.
In the 'Some Big Changes' topic, Zero said that Swapitshop Lounge would be changing to PhpBB3 in the near future, so I imagine that you are looking to hire somebody with experience at using PhpBB3 forums too because of the much more difficult and advanced features. I think that I would be a great choice for the job for that exact reason - I have now owned 2 different PhpBB3 forums in the past and know virtually all of the features available in PhpBB3. I also know how to use the PhpBB3 advanced permission, which quite alot of forum owners don't yet know how to use.
I also always try my best to make my posts as constructive as possible and always use good English grammar and spelling. I feel that this will help to make a good administrator because it will make the forum look much more professional, well-organised, attractive and neat.
Can we trust you?
You can 100% trust me. You hired me as a moderator here towards the end of last year and I didn't let you down. I have also never received a ban here at Swapitshop Lounge, which helps to prove that I can be trusted.
If you wish, you can ask some of the members that I have worked with on forums in the past, they should tell you that I am trustworthy and do my best for the forum that I own. People that you may wish to ask are *Jack*, Reaper, Dannnz, Adam, //Mario and Yxz. There are quite a few others that I have worked with but I am unable to list them all.
Anything else...
There are a few things that I wish to add to my application.
I would just like to say that I have changed from the past. I used be really quite enthusiastic about staff applications on forums and, as you may remember, when I didn't used to get picked or something didn't really go my way, I got a little bit mardy and stroppy. Honestly, I have changed now and I will conduct myself much better when things go wrong for me.
I am basically saying that I can face problems now and, as I have told Joey on MSN previously, I was very young at the time and took things quite seriously. Now, as I am older, I do understand that not everything will go my own way and I am big enough and have enough experience now to face any problems that I would come across adminstrating Swapitshop Lounge and deal with them in a good manner, unlike in the past when I may have let my emotions run away with me.
I'd like to add that, if I end up with the job, I promise that I will give 100% effort and commitment to help Swapitshop Lounge become a friendly, happy and enjoyable place.
Finally, I would like to wish all other applicants for both this job and the moderator job the best of luck. All of the members that are chosen will receive my complete backing and support.
I am sure that you will pick the best members for the job - you always do.

Can we trust you?
You can trust me as i have been on here over a year on here and on swapitshop itself where i have a gold star rating of 87. I know i have been banned on here for a week a few months back but i feel as though as i have come back as a better member.

Why are people using this thread to chat? Theres one in the chat section.
Still, my application:
Why do you want to be an admin?
The reason I want to become an admin, is because I know I can help this forum. I am pretty good with HTML/BB code etc and could add some cool features. I am going to be on here for ages over the summer holidays, which means more time for me to come on here, though I would be on here alot anyway. But my point is I really know I can help this forum alot if was chosen to become and admin.
How much time do you have free to run the forum?
Lots. Thats the short answer. I am on loads and as I already said above, will be on even more during summer holidays.
Do you have ideas to help take the forum forward?
Yes. Including New Games, more sections, some sections merged, and lots more which if I get chosen I will do (Like new hacks maybe)
Why should we make you admin?
Because if you want and active admin who is going to sort out all problems very quickly, then you should pick me. I know I maybe don't have the best past record, but I have never had any bans, and dont even remember having a warning, but my point being; I WILL help.
Can we trust you?
Yes, of course. Don't know what else I can say. Of course you can trust me!!
Anything else...
Good luck to everyone who applies. Hope the current admins choose a great new admin. 
Thanks for reading.
