PAID Shinsengumihq LJ Acct
http://shinsengumihq.livejournal.com/
(look at that design! it needs help!)
Goal of the LJ acct:
1)to link to LJ Shinsengumi related members so they show up on the
friends page (with their permission)
2)to alert the LJ Shinsengumi community to updates at the main
http://www.shinsengumihq.com site
3)to gather information regarding the Shinsengumi in pop-culture
(this includes, original fanwork of all kinds, universe based
fanfic/2D/3Dart/media, and commercial pop-culture aka "professional"
releases as well as RPG alerts)
4)Basically this blog is the "to-do list" of the pop culture updates
which will eventually show up on the main website here:
http://www.shinsengumihq.com/pop.htm
5)To seek and collect "mutual friends" which means you email those
community leaders and request mutual friending---if they are not
interested then don't add them to your friends list (this is all
voluntary)
Opening Position(s) for maintainer
1)you either have a good grasp of the Livejournal interface or you
are willing to learn very quickly
2)you are willing to devote a reasonable amount of time in the
initial stages to develop a sleek look for the blog
3)you are organized and your posts are so easy to understand the
inept webmaster of the website can glance at the blog and just know
exactly how to update the webpage
4)you will notify the owner of the blog or volunteers at
shinsengumihq.com when you will be no longer able to fulfill your
duties or when you need a substitute
5)Payment: you will get virtual hugs
no just kidding
after 3 weeks
of service, you will be gifted with 1 year paid membership on LJ for
whatever personal blog you have or paid membership to Deviantart
6)The maintainer and some members will all have access to the
account should there be an emergency of some sort
The Blog is ***not
..
1)a personal rant space for the volunteer maintainer to discuss his
or her personal life
2)a place to answer detailed shinsengumi questions unless those
questions may be answered somewhat accurately (for example a simple
question "what year was Saitou Hajime born?" vs a hard
question "give me the entire Hijikata Toshizofamily tree")---
questions should generally be directed to the mailing list
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/SHQ/ where several dozen people may be
able to help
if someone asks "where is the best LJ PMK community" then the
maintainer may direct him or her to that community thus at times you
are also an "info desk" person
3)a place to post negative commentary on other websites or review
fanwork (for example do not say "that fanfic is too OOC for me")
your job is simply to highlight fanwork, not appraise it
Three Mandatory Posts which will remain "frozen" at the top of the
journal
1)Pop-culture
2)Shinsengumihq.com updates (this will be maintained by the
volunteer webmaster of the main website)---basically a public list
of "work in progress" or tech notes for the main website---a public
check list if you will
3)Information/link post which lists Shinsengumihq.com long time
