Why do you want to be a Helper?:
I want to be a Helper to the community I once loved and adored. I want to help bring R1 out of the dark and born anew again. I hope you all give me that chance once again to become a staff member on one of the best servers I have played on at the time.
5 Reasons to why we should make you a Helper?:
1. Experience: (Stated many times before) I once was a Helper on R3 and a Jr. Mod on R1. I have experience with the basic commands both positions give as well as the gym battles.
2. Activity: When I was staff for Pokeballers, I used to give immense hours of work onto the the server, ranging from 6-10+ hours, depending on the day, and what was currently going on in my life. It did decrease a bunch when I had personal problems of mine, but I still got

Trust: I'm a good Helper, on a personal and in-game level basis. I've been trusted by many people, including ex-staff. Ask anyone and I can almost guarantee you they trust me on any sort of level.
4. Skills: As stated previously, I have the knowledge of Gym Rules, Mod commands, and other factors that a standard staff member would need to help his server be an awesome place for the player.
5. Maturity: This one may be a bit odd, and it may not be all trustworthy, but I can assure you over the past year or 2 I've matured a great bit in terms of personality, deciding what is right, what is wrong, how to correctly carry out a task and other bits. I want to assure you all I want to join this server as the best person there is. Help me help you trust me enough to become a Helper for this community.
Do you have any experience with Helping others?:
I've had experience with helping others as a Jr. Mod, and I've also helped a few people close to me with some rather big problems in real life, but that's on a more personal level and I'd like to not go into much detail. I also take most of my spare time during the weekdays and weekend of my summer babysitting my 3 and 2 year old baby
-Family. My family keeps me grounded. The importance of family allows me to balance work and take the necessary time away to spend it with my loved ones. Balancing professional and personal time puts everything into perspective and recharges my
My peers can expect a trustworthy co-worker, who will help hold them up when they are down and embrace them when they are up. I will be understanding and considerate when dealing with my peers ensuring not to step into their areas of responsibility without cause. I will give them advice and instruction in areas they are not as strong in and lending help to their sections when the mission dictates a need for it. When they are out of the office I will take care of their soldiers and sections as if they are my own.
...uineness, and a sense of duty in relationships with other people. Ultimately, I take those three traits very seriously by trying to fulfill my duty to the fullest potential. Lastly, being twenty-four, I am between the stages of overcoming and distinguishing my identity crisis and beginning to enter young adulthood. Getting ready to graduate college this semester and joining the military, I am starting to establish my independence from my parents and entering autonomously as a mature, responsible adult. I plan to serve a term in the military, apply for a federal law enforcement profession, and start my own family.
I have assisted people with disabilities in need of assistance with house cleaning, cooking, and running errands. I enjoy what I do and consider it a privilege to be able to help people in the comfort of their homes. Helping my community is one thing that I enjoy, and I am glad I was in the position to help.
I grew up with people who helped for a living. My mom’s job was helping girls that had got themselves into trouble and needed help, that is when I learned as a toddler, that helping is what I wanted to do. I soon got into elementary school and I was a big helper. I still am. Last year I was in Mrs. Harkabus’ class and had the greatest opportunity
After joining however I quickly realized the difference I could make in someone’s life by simply donating a few hours of my time. The school children I mentor 2-3 times a week are one of the greatest delights. Many of them do not receive any one on one time with another individual except for when I am tutoring them. These children have such great potential if only their parents and other adults around them would take the time to see it. It fills me with great satisfaction knowing that I am making a difference in those who one day may be leading this
The Webster Dictionary defines help as, “to give assistance or support”, “to make more pleasant or bearable”, “to be of use to” or, “to change for the better”(MW, n.d.). However, I think that help is a much broader term than these definitions imply. Help is on a spectrum and can include anything from holding the door for a stranger, to donating a kidney for someone in need. I think that help can simply be defined as an action or doing that betters a situation for at least one of the subjects involved, although I do recognize that this includes a very wide variety of situations and circumstances. I like to think of help as a venn diagram, with three categories. A basic situation involving help includes a ‘helper’ and a ‘helpee’. On the right

One time, when I was around five, it was night time and I had a school project to turn in the next day, I approached my mother and told her that I needed help with my project. Of course I told her that I had to turn in the project the next day, and she proceeded to scold me for waiting until the last minute to do my work, but never the less she accepted to help me. If I had asked for help when I was five, I must have asked for help later in my life, because I’m sure I’ve needed help many times, and not only from my mother but from friends, teachers, peers, strangers, and family.
For example, my professional expertise in the customer service field for so many years had taught me how to communicate well and how to deal with all types of people. Also, my college work experience in helping the Fullerton College students in the tutoring center, the writing center, and the transfer center thought me more about good listening skills and extending a helping hand to college students in need of my help and guidance. My assistance is provided in a compassionate and humane way, regardless of socioeconomic status, ethnicity or religious beliefs. Each student has the right to their self-determination, and I let them decide and choose what is best for them. I deliver my help in a reliable, honest and respectful manner. I cherish integrity and always act honestly, responsibly and ethically at all
Counseling skills has provided me with a valuable insight into the helping relationship and how it is both created and maintained in order to encourage growth and development in the client. The factors involved within the helping relationship include considering Roger’s core conditions, congruence, unconditional positive regard and empathy as the three main characteristics necessary in a helping relationship. In order to fully incorporate all three of Roger’s core conditions, I as the counselor must be self-aware, as a lack of self-awareness may inhibit truly listening and understanding the client; self-awareness can be enhanced through exercises such as Johari’s window. Counseling skills such as body language and active listening also plays a role within encouraging the client to open up and can help me as the counselor convey empathy.
you try your best to help and know what you are doing. Keep in mind that helping
There are many attributes to being an effective helper. An effective helper, in essence, should be genuinely caring, have a calm manner, have a sense of humor, be a clear thinker, be highly dependable, honest, use common sense, be objective and not subjective, be self-confident, be self-aware, have a positive attitude toward life, have respect for others, exhume warmth, show flexibility and openness (Mental Health of Refugees, 1996). These are the basic characteristics of an effective helper. Above all, an effective helper must completely respect the persons they are trying to help, no matter what their values and beliefs are (Burger, 2011). You must recognize the differences between you and the person you are helping, and you must respect these differences (Mental Health of Refugees, 1996). An effective helper should not be the judge of another person’s life, but think of it as being invited to or asked to help a person. The helper should empathize with the person they are helping and not assume that they know how a person feels. The helper should understand that each person is u...
A four: You mainly never follow directions, but not always. You create your own plans and you do what YOU want. At times you want to mess up other people’s plans when the plan is better than yours. You always ask the question, “What if?” A three: You are annoyed to be interrupted. You like to doodle. You create and plan. You ask the question, “How?” A two (my format): You fear and worry. You are focused and determined on the things you need to complete. You dislike group projects. YOU HAVE TO MAKE IT PERFECT. You ask the question, “What?” A one: You must talk to learn. You work easier with others. You share experiences. Your feelings are expressed in your stories. You ask the question,
Helping Hands has helped my family in the past. Several years ago my family was struggling with income and Helping Hands was generous enough to help us pay our electric bill. I chose to volunteer at Helping Hands because I wanted to give back to the program. At the time, it seemed like there was little value in sorting piles of toys but then the manager shared with me that many children would be very happy to receive these toys for Christmas. This one comment helped me to put it all into perspective. Volunteering isn’t about me; it is about playing an active in the community. Bringing joy to families who are suffering, giving hope to the hopeless.
