Social Media Moderators Needed

Go To

Good day tropers!

We are looking for knowledgeable volunteers to become the moderators of our Facebook and Twitter pages. All moderators will be able to post content to any of these sites through a 3rd party site that allows cross-posting.

Social Media Moderators will also get their own mod slack channel to talk to each other, myself and the other mods. They will also get their names added to /KnowTheStaff in their own section and get a special corresponding badge once my badge update is pushed up soon. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks! grin

  • Must not have any active suspensions
  • Must be highly active on T Vtropes

NEW SITES:
  • Tumblr: Plakythebirb, movienut14, Cutegirl920fire

DUTIES & RESPONSIBILITIES:

Honestly the biggest issue there isn't the visuals or scripts, we can easily do those, it's finding someone who has a decent voice (and microphone), and is willing to have it revealed.

We don't necessarily need a face, just a voice that doesn't sound like crap.

Okay, thought about it a bit, I don't think I should be a full on social media moderator now.

I just don't trust myself with what I say nowadays since I have a history of saying stupid things that backfire due to missing something or a misunderstanding, or getting flat out thumped to protect my dignity. I don't think that will be good in a position all about being good at talking.

But on the art side, I'm still planning to contribute to that. Drawing art for announcements, special events, etc that I will do when contacted.

For the possible YouTube channel that will most likely require animations/animatics, I think that can be discussed later on.

In a nutshell, I won't be stepping a foot onto the accounts, but I will be illustrating. Maybe I might take a crack at a new subreddit logo and banner when the time comes.

Tentatively considering the merits of contributing my voice to the tiktok.

We do have a good mic and I'm told my voice sounds nice. 2 am tangent 

Getting the time and energy to actually do the voicing is a sticking point, though.

Suddenly I'm... still rotating Fallen London in my mind even though I've stopped actively playing it.

Oh, alnair20aug93 and Plakythebirb? I sent you guys member invites for the Tumblr once it was up.

...Still waiting for your replies.

I think we might need a fourth mod for the Tumblr. So far it's only me doing anything with it.

Did you give access to the other mods?

Double edit: Perhaps you can discuss with them ideas for the Tumblr page?

Remind me of the progress with each account so far. Discord has been running for a while now, and I hear Tumblr was set up.

[up][up] Good idea.

[up] Let's see...Tumblr went up on the 14th, presently has seven followers. So far have only been reblogging other people's content, will try to make some original content soon.

Just heard of Misskey being a Twitter alternative that is aimed toward people who disliked the changes towards Twitter. So far, their popularity is rising high so far, any interest towards it?

For context, this is the website I'm talking about.

Let's try to stabilize first and get our gripping, and then expand.

I'd say that unless Twitter/X goes down completely, its probably best to just have the Twit account instead of any of the alternatives until we've gotten the social media stuff working well.

Gonna ask if we have time and room about the Telegram messaging app. There used to be one according to this thread, though it wasn't touched upon.

Ah sorry about the delay everyone! This company has a major project going on that’s taking priority over tropes stuff so this got pushed back on the priority list. I’ll try to spend some free time next week preparing the login stuff for everyone who volunteered.

If you're accepting more volunteers, I can make some art for the social media stuff like Trope-tan art on the TVT Tumblr.

I think I'll stop being an admin on Tumblr. I rarely go to Tumblr than when I used to.
Best I'll give this to someone else who is more willing and able.

I let this sit for way too long. Anyone want to make suggestions to the Reddit icon before I go add a bit more details and clean it up?

Being the one who's generally running the Tumblr, I'd like to make a few requirements for whoever wants to fill alnair20aug93's spot:

  • Regularly active on the site (at least daily)
  • Willing to make original content

So...more or less what's mentioned in the tagged comment.
