The Script Union is a group of Script Chat general members, that is they are not administrators, nor are they moderators, they're just an average member. The purpose of the union is to establish another link between the General Members and Staff.
We have seen where members maybe a bit scared to speak to the staff members and we understand. We don't wish to scare anyone so to make you feel more at ease we're establishing this union as a place where you can speak or complain free to your representative without the fear that the staff members would feel offended or anything.
This is not just the board that handles complaints, they are members too so you can chat just about anything here, from complaints, suggestions, ideas, or simply put if you want to say something to the Staff and you wish to remain anonymous you can just talk to any Union Representative if you do not feel comfortable with talking to a staff member. This does not mean that you can not speak to a staff member and not remain anonymous. You can do so, but remember if you wish to remain anonymous then you need to state that in your messages.
To become a Union Representative or a S.U.R you must fulfill the following criteria:
First be a member of the Script.
Be an active member, meaning signing in and making regular postings.
Follow the rules and regulations as set by the Script Chat.
Be a peace maker not a War Lord, as in try to solve the problem and not join sides to start a war.
Needs to be user friendly.
A Team Player.
Must have either a hotmail /msn /live or yahoo mailing address and messenger that is available to the public.
Capable of Maintaining an expected rank. Meaning not having 10 posts while everyone else has 300+
Knowledge of the History, Rules and Regulations of Script Chat.
The S.U.R will be elected by you the Script Chat members and not the staff. At the time of Nomination which will take place Annually from December to February. At Nomination Phase members who wish to be nominated can not nominate them selves. To be Nominated you must be recommended by at least 10 members (When the site grows this number will increase to the most 30.) This will also be done in the voting format.
Note that not all nominees will be allowed to run the election for apart from obtaining the nomination, you must also fit the criteria. The nomination will be closed on the February 26. The remaining two weeks of the month will be used to interview, observe and train the nominated member. If a nominee is seen as unfit by half (1/2) of the Staff then he/she will be removed from the election list.
Then the Elections will take place in March for the two First weeks and the election list will be posted the day before elections. The closing date for elections will be exactly at 11 Pm, March 13, (note this is the Caribbean time, so 11 pm For the admin may be a different time for you if you're in a different country).
The elections will take place in a voting format, and the elected S.U.R will then be instated by the Staff of Script Chat. After which they will be given a 7 Gold Stars as their rank or Union Badge. The Union Members will take office on March 19.
