Chobots is a world run by the community, for the community. This can clearly be seen through the undeniably strong passion that the Chobots team (composed of former community members) has for maintaining our wonderful world and keeping it safe and age-appropriate for everyone. While we do try our best to remain impartial and unbiased when it comes to making critical decisions, it's not always easy to keep in mind the interests of our vast user base.
That is why the Chobots Council was founded - to bridge the gap between the Chobots team and you, our valued community members. The main function of the Council is to act as a board of advisors to the Chobots administration (i.e. allow the team to hear opinions from different perspectives). Upon establishment, the Council consists of a total of 8 members: two juniors, two citizens, one journalist, one agent, one moderator, and one administrator, who presides over the Council. These members ("Councillors") are elected through popular vote, after being nominated by the Chobots administration. Further and more simplified details can be found in the F.A.Q.
In order to become a member of the Chobots Council, you need to show a strong interest in the Council and follow the Chobots rules. Of course, it's also required that you stay active - how else would you know what's going on in the Chobots world? Once there is a vacant position in the Chobots Council, a few members will be nominated by the administration, and a vote will be cast by the appropriate group (see F.A.Q.)
We believe that the power to bring change is not exclusive to the Chobots team, but instead belongs to the members of the community, and we hope that through establishing the Chobots Council, we can encourage more interaction between the staff and the users.
Stay tuned for more details regarding the nominations of candidates.
Regards,
Jake

Awesome idea Jake! But what about the Directors, George and Trey? I noticed they rarely come online, but will they be making the decisions?

This new rank sounds great!
ReplyDeleteIt wiuld be a big honour to become one! Good luck to everyone else trying for it ^u^
Also, just wondering, what will it look like for people who are agents and councilors as the badges are in the same place? :)
I'm guessing they'll have their agent badge with the councillor status printed below the badge.
DeleteIt sounds awesome to be part of it! x)
ReplyDeleteThis is great. I have suggested this such a long time ago. Great to see it being implemented. Can't wait to see what the community can do.

Wow, I can't wait to see who the council members will be! Good luck to everychobot!
ReplyDeleteThis sounds great but, I have 1 question, If you are in the council, as a citizen, and your citizen runs out, will you still be in the council?
ReplyDeleteYou should take a look at the FAQ!
DeleteAhh, I see, So If I become a citizen council member, and I turn junior, because my citizenship ran out im still in the council, ooooh! Thanks

ReplyDeleteI'm interested in this o: this new rank sounds awesome.
ReplyDeleteP.s, daily draw is awesome!
Cool idea! Tip of advice, we should all be ourselves, it will help in the long run ;)
ReplyDeleteThis new thumbs up and thumbs down feature is annoying. It will upset someone if he gets thumbs down. It would be good, if it was like the one on Facebook that doesn't show the thumbs down button, unless you download it.
