Staff Applications Closing August 6th!
Site UpdatesCommunity2008
Just a note, new staff applications will be closed on the 6th. Have them in before the deadline if you wish to apply.

Please do not apply if you don't have anything of interest. I don't want to see random members applying when other applications vastly overshadow their own. This meaning, don't reply saying no to a bunch of questions and just trying to get an application in at the slight hope that you may be picked.
