Now I have a handy place to copy paste from for each new staff member that wants to help out lol. Here's how to handle new applicants to CYCT.

Ok, so we let the staff know which applicant we're going to take... there are more male applicants, and for the sake of safety, we usually prefer the female staff to take female applicants. We do this here:

Then we check their profile page and look for red flags.. kinds of clubs they're in like LGBTQ, demonic stuff etc, and conversations on the main page or in blogs to see if they're respectful, the kinds of friends on their friend list (some guys are just girl 'friend' collectors.

Then we pm them and ask questions like these, but feel free to make it your own:

We post their answers here:

We wait about 24 hours to let the staff give input on each applicant and vote.. we don't refuse too many people so long as they want to at least sincerely learn about Jesus.

Then we admit them, send a pm of welcome and welcome them on the main page notes. And we let everyone know to welcome them here:
