Argonath RPG Webmaster Application | Ryan Caltson
Dear Administration of Argonath,
My name is Ryan Caltson.
I am 16 years old, and this involves applying for the Webmaster application.
There are several reasons why i am applying for this, mostly beceause i find myself quite suitable for this function, is
beceause my studies / job are for 60% hosting, maintaining & updating of the website.
Requirements
- Daily activity for news
- Good knowledge of Gaming World.
- Forum Activity for the news on main page.
- Knowledge of web mastering
- Designing Possibilities
- FTP- Experience
- Knowledge of Argonath RPG Rules and Policy
1. Daily Activity for news
Activity for news is a requirement i'm sure about i can meet, As i'm exactly doing the same on the Las Venturas Armed Limo
Service website. Las Venturas Armed Limo Service (http://www.lv-als.argonathrpg.com/forum)
2. Good knowledge of Gaming World.
I have a good knowledge about the gaming world. This involves the games, recent releases, news on multiplayer clients as
SA:MP, MTA:SA, VC:MP etc. These are also parts that have to be taken in caution, as we're still a community mostly based on those multiplayer clients, therefore the news of it has to get more priority except news from Argonath itself.
3. Forum Activity for the news on main page
Almost quite the same as the first point, However there has to be made sure that all the news of the current webpage
has to be mostly related to Argonath Community only, Meaning news like Events coming up, Concerts from Argonath Rock bands, Gang news, Business sections etc.. It takes alot of work, but would make news very interesting to read for all members.. Just my opinion on that.
4. Knowledge of Web mastering
I Have quite much knowledge of web mastering, as Experience. At my work i've been responsible for the products on the website, their prices, and their lay-out and describtion. Also as for Argonath,i am updating the ALS Forum, with knowledge of SMF. This is why i also am quite sure the 'news" part on forums will be absolutely no problem.
I have advanced knowledge of HTML and basic PHP - knowledge. I am currently learning Joomla!, as i master Adobe
Dreamweaver and ready to move on to Joomla.
5. Design Possibilities
I didn't do much design yet, but most of my designs were created in Photoshop. I also created visitation cards for a business
(A Real business, of course ) using Microsoft Office 2007 Publisher. Also web design is something i master, however my knowledge about this is yet not very advanced.
6. F.T.P. Experience
Have experience with FTP, Aswell as Windows shares. I Know how to acces / add / create an FTP- Server / File.
7. Knowledge of Argonath RPG Rules and Policy
I Know the Argonath RPG Rules, As the policy. I Agreed to them before.
This were the requirements, and what i do qualify for. I hope on a positive response, and i will be also happy to give you the website's i took part in ( work, Argonath, etc... ), but due to some privacy issues i will not share them in public.
Motivation
My motivation for this function is already very well. I will be ready from the day i will get accepted, and will gladly continue that, with keeping up good work, as in the points i have explained above.
I do understand Argonath RPG Community has a reputation to keep up, and that's why as Webmaster you have to make sure i'll have to keep up the tasks given by me, and listen to suggestions other people have to say, Beceause of what i think, Listening to the community, is the way people will stay attracted to the website happening or Argonath as they'll see what they suggested. Getting the community involved, by putting up pictures of the community, Pictures they can take themselves, wich make them also getting involved.
Regards,
Ryan Caltson

Dear Argonath Main Administration,
•๋ââ€â€Ã‚ I Believe that the design of the website is an essential phase, in which global thinking is conducted, as a first step, the objectives of the site and the potential target and, secondly, the structure and navigation. Yes and Good Knowledge of the domaine which the site is built for is also important; Im an active and smart Poster, i have good communication skills, i can speak French, English, little Spanish & Arabic. I have enough experience and good knowledge of Gaming Worlds and Communites.
•๋ââ€â€Ã‚ I dont really have much knowledge of Web Mastering and creating HTML files. As there is always a second way using: a HTML editor WYSIWYG Known as " What You See Is What You Get " and i know this is a practical solution for creating Web pages. On the other hand, i can be pretty good at designing, creating smart and suitable pictures; I can use several drawing softwares. A website must always contain pictures and good designs to enliven the site (EX: GIF, JPG or PNG).
•๋ââ€â€Ã‚ File Transfer Protocol. I only know that is a program that allows you to move files easly from one computer to another. i used it several times for SAMP Server Hosting using MySQL Database; but unfortunatly i never used it on a Web Site.
•๋ââ€â€Ã‚ Yes I do have knowledge of Argonath RPG Rules and Policy, however i break the rules sometimes on forum due to some reasons i know each policy and each single rule made to maintain order in the Community. Good that the French Rules were made, i really liked the idea i was happy to see that.
Best Regards,
Seether
