Help Wanted: Looking For a Few Good People

Are you someone who likes to help others? Someone who knows a thing or two about base building? Do you have some opinions about things you’d like to see done? Then maybe you would like to be one of the leaders that works with other builders to help them with building questions and works to make things better for the base building community!
 

As you probably know, the Community Representative position was dissolved, but, our passion for the community and drive to help remain undiminished! And we think there might be other people who feel like they’d like to work in this capacity, too. And maybe you already are! So why not join forces? It would be especially wonderful to get people who primarily play or build on shards other than Everlasting. If this sounds interesting, please read on!

We are The Base Foundation
 

A small committee-like group, making decisions we all (or most of us) agree on. It’s important that anyone working in this group be someone who can work well with others (And "working well with others" means that you have the ability to work with a person even if you don't personally enjoy their company; anyone can work with a friend!) If you know you don’t do well in a group setting or have difficulty dealing with some personality types, this is probably not the role for you. We don’t exclude anyone who would like to help, but you really should have the ability to work with others. 

Members of The Base Foundation will generate and suggest ideas they think would be good to implement. These could be ideas for contests, challenges, showcases, something we haven’t thought of yet, or they might see a need for creating something that would help the community, like Easter Bunny did with the directory; we hope this group of people would be a willing pool to help with all kinds of projects, and might have all kinds of skills they could use to help. So, people could pick and choose what projects suited their interests and skills.

 

Who should consider helping out?
Here are the qualities we’d like to see in people who would like to help out:

 

1. The ability to work with others well.

2. An enthusiasm for bases / base building.

3. Various skills and a willingness to participate in discussions and projects.

4. A willingness to share their knowledge of base building, if one of their skills is coaching others in building.

5. A good work ethic (you show up, do what you say you will do, and keep up with what’s happening)

6. The desire to help and encourage others.

7. Must be willing to abide by group decisions, even if you disagree.

8. Must be willing to use and respond to Discord.
 

What would you do?
 

So what do we hope to accomplish here? Well, we have a lot we’d like to do! And we’d like to be sure that we are in step with the direction the community wants to go, so, we feel like more points of view would help with this. Also, more hands makes for lighter work.  Other than just helping people, which many of you are already doing, other things we’ve found ourselves doing have included:
 

  • Publicizing events
  • Visiting lots of bases
  • Judging bases
  • Creating posters
  • Creating documents
  • Writing up announcements
  • Coming up with events
  • Testing new items on the test server (would not be required, it’s just something they asked of the CRs)
  • Monitoring and responding to questions on the forums
  • Running an (increasingly large) Discord

 

No one person need do all of these things, but if any of these things particularly interest you, or are personal strengths, we’d love to have you step up and join The Base Foundation!

If interested in being part of this group of base enthusiasts who want to help the community, just go to the City of Builders Discord and, in the questions asked of new members, indicate an interest in the community engagement effort.

If already a member of the City of Builders, go to “Channels and Roles” and click on the box that reads “Join the Community Engagement Effort.”

"WHAT DID SHE TAKE?!"

 

"The secure laptop in the lab. A prototype plasma hand cannon. Four quantum grenades, a phase field generator, a handful of tracking devices, Rauth's briefcase, body armor, a satellite phone, two SSDs, a Beretta 9mm, and my lunch."
