This is truly an exciting time as Argonath's player population restores. I commend the leadership for taking action and expanding the staff team to meet the demands of a higher player count.
Good luck to the applicants. I would apply as well but increased work load in real life prevents me from being as active to fulfill the duties. During my time as an administrator back in 2010, I had the opportunity to see the great breath of experience, expertise and commitment that our community as a whole generates. I enjoyed the interpersonal relationships I was able to achieve with members and leaders of our community. Those who are chosen as moderators will have the amazing opportunity to experience the same.
I'm sure many are applying and only a few will be selected. Those who aren't selected shouldn't feel discouraged. There are many important roles you can play as just a member of the community that are just as important as serving as a staff member and sometimes are arguably much more important roles.
