Seeking Hospitality Additions to 420 Staff

We are in search of a few people who would like to join our team as "Hospitality Team"...

Duties include welcoming all new members in the Introduce Yourself forum, when they post their first thread and helping them find a certain section they are looking for...

Even though we know this website like the back of our hand, new members do not and they sometimes seek guidance before becoming a full time contributing member... If we greet them at the door and make them feel welcome, we will increase our member base dramatically...

If you are interested, please tell us a little about yourself and why you want to join our team.

Thanks and we look forward to your replies!

Re: Seeking Welcome Wagon Additions to 420 Staff

I love the idea of a "Hospitality Mod" - it will reinforce that 420 Magazine is the friendliest, most helpful site on the web.
I think a thorough knowledge of what is in the archives would be essential here, and a willingness and joy to help others. This is an important position IMO

Re: Seeking Welcome Wagon Additions to 420 Staff

no, just a willingness to help others... your postings will have to be free of any spelling or grammar errors though and signatures like these will not be acceptable if you are to represent us at the door, "to fathom hell or soar angelic just take a pinch of psychedelic"... we are a Cannabis website only...

is there any like requirements. like would i have to be at a cirtain amount of posts or anything?
i agree with you mark, however we don't want to require so much that we get no applicants... we will make this a guideline for the future, but at the present time, we will accept anyone who wants to help...

even if you don't join our team, you can always welcome new members as a member yourself... this should be happening already, anyway...

Re: Seeking Welcome Wagon Additions to 420 Staff

they can have this title if they also have good knowledge of the forums and can help direct people to where they need to find things in a KIND, professional manner...if they do not possess these qualities and only want to simply send out a welcome, they will get a more simpler title without the word "Mod"...

Re: Seeking Welcome Wagon Additions to 420 Staff

For all the younger members who are budding activists who constantly ask "How can I help?", this is a perfect opportunity to do good. Being staff on a large, global cannabis awareness site is pretty cool guys!!!

Re: Seeking Welcome Wagon Additions to 420 Staff

^I can see where 420 is coming from here. The primary thing is that you do not hallucinate on Cannabis, and to refer to Cannabis as a psychadelic is incorrect. It is psychotropic, more so than a psychadelic. Also, it hints at other drugs, which is not what we are about here. Keep it green and clean lol


As with most psychoactive drugs, cannabis can cause a wide variety of reactions in different people and at different times. There is also a broad range of potency and types of cannabis, which will cause different types of effects.

People definitely experience strong visual and mental effects with cannabis, rivalling anything one could experience with other psychedelics like L$D or psilocybin. Of course, most commonly the effects are not this strong. If you find yourself experiencing undesirably strong effects from smoking cannabis (you might be a person with a high sensitivity), you might want to try lowering your dosage. But keep in mind, it is not hallucinating.

peace,

Re: Seeking Welcome Wagon Additions to 420 Staff

I'm throwing my name in the hat. I'm not an overly technical person, and try to be as informed as possible. I am a medical marijuana user and have had my recommendation for five years due to my epilepsy condition.
Most who know me knows I like to make people feel welcome and join in on the forums more. I can't be here all the time, but I'd be happy to volunteer some hours each night to welcome everyone and help them weave their way through the site.

Peace and happiness

Re: Seeking Welcome Wagon Additions to 420 Staff

Hi Staff,

Having read this post requesting a hospitality oriented person to help greet the new members, I had to respond.

You see, when I first came to this site, I was welcomed quite warmly. That, and that alone, caused me to make the decision to stay here. I visited many sites related to marijuana and none were as deserving as 420Magazine.com.

I believe I am qualified for the position for a couple of reasons. One, I live in Myrtle Beach, SC. A well known tourist destination on the East Coast. Myrtle Beach has approximately 14 million visitors a year.

Two, I spent 5 years in the hospitality industry here starting with employment in the hotels themselves and ending with a 3 year stint with the Myrtle Beach Area Chamber of Commerce. Were it not for suffering from epilepsy, I would probably still be in the hospitalty business.

I have felt kind of guilty due to the fact I am unable to support the site financially. When I read this post, I thought this might be a way to show my gratitude for all that I have received while being here.

I thank you for taking the time to read this, and again, for all the help you provide to everyone here. I look forward to helping in any small way that I can.

If you have any further questions feel free to ask.

Re: Seeking Welcome Wagon Additions to 420 Staff

Hey 420 Editor,
I would love to help your team out if I can. Like Smokin ***** said, "being a part of this global cannabis team would be pretty cool!" This website has so much to offer the cannabis community! I search it all the time for grow information I can't find in books on the subject. Or to just read about the laws on cannabis and such. I am a beginner when it comes to growing, but have been a cannabis consumer for about 25 years now. Currently I am on my 4th grow. The first three turned out in failure. But I am a very eager student when it comes to learning how to grow mother natures medicine! I want to help others while learning myself.
