Good Bye: Awong

Posted by Danny on 2011-12-16 10:19:37 UTC

To all of the SwiftIRC community,

On behalf of all of the SwiftIRC staff both past and present, I'd like to wish Awong a good bye from everyone.

For those of you who knew him personally, his departure will be sorely missed. For those who did not know him, he has been a crucial member of the Network Administrative team for several years now.

I hope that life treats you well and wish you the best of luck in your future adventures.

Thank you and Good Bye

#IRCHelp Applications Now Open

Posted by Awong on 2011-09-17 08:09:22 UTC

Note: As of January 14th 2012, the applications for the Helper positions within #IRChelp are no longer open. The rank won't cease to exist and you may still be eligible to be selected for promotion by the SwiftIRC staff.

Hey there!

Help is available for users in a bunch of different ways, but one of the main places users find it is #IRCHelp. In recognition of the fact that this channel is very much run by users, for users, I am pleased to announce that we are opening applications for Helper positions within #IRChelp.

Helpers can be spotted by their 'voice' status in #IRCHelp. You will also be able to identify a few Senior Helpers by their 'halfop' status.

Don't confuse Helpers with the support and other network staff who will still be around the channel, as well as monitoring the other support mechanisms such as #Support and the ticketing site.

Include your responses within the body of the email. Do NOT include any attachments or your application may be disregarded:

Please be patient as we work through all the applications, but if you are successful an email will instruct you on the next step in the process.

Last but not least, feel free to join #Applications, where applicants are encouraged to chat with other users and staff. Applicants who have been accepted through the application phase can be identified with their 'voice' status.

Thanks,
Alan
