English Section Admins Wanted

Mon May 16, 2022 10:44 pm

Dear OS users,

We are looking for administrators to look after and maintain the English section due to current shortages.
And we removed a lot of admins due to inactivity of admin duties, around 40% of the numbers we thought we previously had. Hence, we are trying to replenish our numbers.

We are one of the biggest subtitle providers on the net and have been providing for our/your community for decades. If you feel you can help give back to our/your community that we are all part of, then please do consider the proposal.

We are only looking for those that can check the recent upload section of the site daily and ensure everything is correctly uploaded, which means no duplicates, the correct IMDb ID (title/episode), further guides and help will be given upon approval, etc.

Applicants should be able to dedicate around several hours a day. Preferably not all at once, but spread over the day in two or three parts.
The more checks every day, the better. If you feel you can do admin work only every couple of days and not at least daily, then this position wouldn’t be for you.
Time slots and frequency can possibly be reduced if more users apply.
To ensure applicants have a clear enough view about what is needed, you should already be an active member of OpenSubtitles for at least the past 18-24 months.

Tasks:

• Basic administrator tasks for the English section only, unless you feel you can do something in another language, but English section will be your main section to concentrate on.

Requirements:

• Applicant has been an active member of OpenSubtitles for at least 18 months.
• Applicant is a native or fluent English speaker or can hold a conversation in the language.
• Applicant is willing and able to fulfill the admin tasks on a daily basis.
• Applicant is willing and able to spend couple of hours as a spread every day. Not all in one go.
Just an example: 30 minutes in the morning, 30 minutes in the afternoon time and 30 minutes evening.

Benefits:

• As admin you will instantly have no limitations on uploads or downloads and no ads or banners.

• You will receive a lifetime VIP status on the site after a minimum of three years of active admin duties, which means actually fulfilling the daily admin tasks, not just the fact that admin status has existed for three years. This benefit will apply if you choose to retire after 3 years of active service.

• Last but not least, feel good factor for giving back to our community so it can continue to thrive. :D

Unfortunately, like the rest of us admins, this is a voluntary role with no pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. :lol:

How to apply:

If you are serious about your application, and only then, please write a PM to admin scooby007 and answer these questions:

• What’s your username and the link to your profile page.
• How much time per day are you able to spend at least on the admin tasks.
• Which part(s) of the day are you available for the admin tasks.
• State in one or two sentences the reason(s) why you are applying (If you can).


Carefully please note:


This request is mainly meant for the English section.
For all other languages, please use the previous topic here:
viewtopic.php?f=1&t=1996#p6874

For any general questions regarding admin duties, please do not PM, but ask your questions in this topic and any admin will be able to answer those questions.

Existing admins are more than welcome to help out in the section if your section is relatively quiet and you feel you have nothing to do. :D

Thank you for considering and reading.
