Its been a while since the administration team has posted a community update, but we would like to continue making these updates for the community, to ensure that everyone is up to date with current events on Avicus, and to introduce new things. 

Recent Promotions

Staff applications
Staff applications are closing soon! We thank all users that have tried out for staff by submitting an application, and we wish a congratulations towards all of the new moderators accepted into the team. Keep in mind, staff applications will not be opening for the next couple of months.

Community Slack
Ever needed to have a more direct service to contact staff members, and suggest various ideas you had in mind? Easily contact an administrator to be added to the community slack (avicommunity.slack.com) by giving them your email, and you can participate in the chat service. There are various channels such as #announcements, #feedback, #general, #random, #requests, #support, and other various random chats for users to talk about. More information on this slack service can be found here -- https://avicus.net/forums/5edc7dcc9

Mentoring Team
Lead by GrapeSmoothie and Rinn, there is currently a group of particular moderators who will ultimately mentor new junior moderators, and have a little more say in particular promotions or demotions within the staff team.
