I just spoke with David and learned that the Support Leader demotions are not reversible and thus everybody must reapply.  

I know many of you are going to complain and bitch about this but there is really no point in doing that.  Absolutely nothing can be done ti change anything.  In fact, we see this as a positive opportunity for LiveWire.

With all the current updates, the job of Support Leaders has become more important.  In the eHelp system there is no way to hid or take back a comment sent by a Support Leader like there was in the Serious Forum.  In addition, Support Leaders are now part of the Novice mentor system.  In this role they must answer questions and be welcoming whenever they are approached by a new member.  They cannot simply chose when they feel like giving a helpful reply and when they just want to click "read" and let somebody else deal with the problem.  Also there is no way to monitor their interaction with new members.   Because of these reasons it is important that only the most helpful members are accepted.  

Moderators will be reviewing applications with these changes in mind. We do not expect you to have 10 new helpful links from the past 24 hr so you may use old links.  However, some of them should be recent.

- We will not accept applications that simply say, "I was a support leader before, give me back my status."  

- You must submit an application with helpful post links and an explanation as to why you want to be a Support Leader.

I was never demoted, do you still want me to send in another application?  

Edit:  I'm an idiot, disregard this post.  I can't reapply if I was never demoted.  Next time I'll think before I post.  

Thanks for the update!

In addition, Support Leaders are not part of the Novice mentor system.

I'm assuming you meant "Support Leaders are now part..."

Just making sure.

Only if you want to spend time reviewing yet another application... By the time this is over you're going to never want to see another support leader application again.  Good luck keeping your sanity.

Yay Mod Team! You all deserve a cookie! Except..I don't have any cookies, so you all can have some nachos instead. Or wild rice.

Sorting through those applications isn't gonna be fun, is it?

Thanks for the update!

I plan on resubmitting a new one soon.  It's been some time since I was a support leader, so I think its about time to do my part.

Kale it would be a good idea that you submit one now seeing that they may not reconise you and give you the support leaders status.

Then you can apply for Mod status
