Palace Network Leadership Popular Post Aquaticalo 380 Posted October 1 Palace Network Leadership Popular Post Share Posted October 1 Hello I’m Evan or more widely known as Aquaticalo and this is our first ever Forums exclusive Staff Interview. These interviews will be weekly to bi-weekly depending on a few changes I may make, and while this is the first official Palace Network Staff Interview, there may be changes next week just to make sure this is the best it can be. Along with that there is a poll attached to this Interview, if you can / want to, select the staff member you want me to interview next week. Without any further delay I am delighted to be able to talk to CamShea who is not only our Staff Member of the Week, but also one of my closest friends. [Aquaticalo]: Today we’ll be asking him a few questions about his time on the staff team, his personal growth through Palace, and what he’s looking forward to in the future. So Cam, how are you doing today? [CamShea]: First of all thank you for choosing to interview me! I am doing very well today. SMOTW was a great start to my day, and overall I'm feeling very happy! [Aquaticalo]: That’s great to hear, you really deserved SMOTW this week in my opinion. What do you think personally set you apart from the crowd and really pushed you over the top this week? [CamShea]: Thank you so much! And there are a lot of people that deserve SMOTW every week, but I think what set me apart this week was the fact that I was a lot more vocal in wanting to help out more with more unique tasks than I usually do, as well as portraying better leadership when it came to dealing with trolls, and other mis-haps on the server! [Aquaticalo]: Any fun unique tasks you’ve done in the last week that you can talk about today? [CamShea]: For sure! The biggest one I can think of is doing cosmetics modeling for the Palace Network store! I got to take fun pictures, and get my face on the cosmetic shop! As well as that, I've really gotten to start doing work for the Support Team, as well as getting more active on the Forums, and I even got to do some small building for fun to entertain Guests! [Aquaticalo]: That all sounds so fun, how was it taking pictures for the store? Is taking pictures for the store something that you think you’d continue to like to do in the future, or do you think this was a one time project? [CamShea]: It was a very easy project to do for sure, so I'd love to do it more often, maybe get more creative with it as well in the future, but that is all up to the Managers/Directors! It was a blast to do though, and I'd highly recommend it to anyone, haha! [Aquaticalo]: So now let me get into some questions about your time here on Palace, when was it that you joined the community and what really got you into it? [CamShea]: I first joined Palace or as it was known McMagic back in around 2013, I go to Disney World a lot, and I loved the idea of a Disney-Themed server, but what really got me into it was for sure how unique and friendly the community is! So many talented, caring individuals truly make Palace the magical place it is, so being able to contribute to that is a dream come true! [Aquaticalo]: I agree, I think the thing that makes Palace the place we all know and love is the warm and welcoming community, personally that’s what got me into Palace as I loved hanging out with all the friends I met while on the server and interacting with them. Going off this topic, with Guide applications closing recently and some of those applicants hoping to eventually get staff, do you have any advice for them as a former Guide & staff member? [CamShea]: For sure! And awe, that's sweet! Glad that the community has positively impacted your time here as well! And as for the Guides-To-Be, the biggest advice I can give to you now would be to focus off of your application, and more on the server. Your application is important, but at this stage, your quality of interaction, engagement and support are the most important things. Even if you're not the most active player, if your time on the server is spent helping other Guests, and engaging/interacting with the community, then that's still a good way to get accepted! But most importantly, always be you, and be unique! Guests love interesting, entertaining people! [Aquaticalo]: Well you heard it here from CamShea, and personally I also agree with that advice. Activity, quality, and authenticity reigns over all else, and as long as you’re being yourself you’ll do perfectly fine as a Guide or staff member. So Cam I have a few last questions for you today in almost like a speedround sort of ordeal, What is your favorite park in WDW? What is your favorite ride in WDW? Favorite color and why? And one fact you want people to know about you? [CamShea]: Favorite park in WDW is for sure EPCOT! You can't beat the scenery and rides there! Favorite ride is either Test Track or Soarin', and my favorite color is Teal, because It's just a very nice, vibrant color that I relate with! And one fact about me that I'd want people to know is that I'm a lot more serious, passionate and hard-working than I appear. I like to have fun, but I take my work very seriously, and I take pride in the things I do. [Aquaticalo]: Well Cam I really appreciate you taking the time out of your day to join us today for our first Palace Network Staff Interview. We as a community want to congratulate you on SMOTW and look forward to seeing more good things from you! [CamShea]: Thank you as well! I appreciate everything! Evan back again, I wanted to thank you all for tuning into this week's edition of our Palace Network Staff Interview. If you have any changes or additions you think could help improve the Interview please tell me down below as I want this to be the best it can possibly be. (I know this wasn't as good as Settler applications, I was hyped as well 😟) Until next time, enjoy the start of spooky season - Evan 👻🧡🖤 15 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
