Sometimes I can get nitpicky about things, I like them to be precise. If I nitpick your project, that's good, because that means there are no big issues and I can provide recommendations on smaller details.

How to apply/positions
Mobile tester-tests the projects, takes orders. You should have lots and lots of experience with Scratch on Mobile. Not currently hiring.

Graphic design/art-probably only need 1 or 2 people at most, but I'm not good at graphic design so it'd be nice to have someone do banners or something.

Marketing-Advertises this shop (within the community guidelines, of course) and helps us to get more customers.
Any other-if you feel you have a skill that would help this shop, please say so!

Application form: (you don't need to do it in a [code] tag)
Username: <your scratch username>
Position: <position from the list or "other">
Explanation: <What do you want to do, if you said other?>
Activity level: <1-10, 10 being the most active>
User agent: <tap the globe on whatever device you'll be testing on>

Rules for ordering:
1. Projects must explain in their instructions how to use the mobile controls
2. We will not make mobile controls for you, but we will give suggestions about how to improve.
3. Feel free to keep up a conversation about your project's mobile controls after we've reviewed it.
4. Use the order form provided, and when asked if you read the rules, put your favorite food to prove you did.
5. Please leave a review and feedback.
6. I don't think I have to say this, but be kind and obey the community guidelines.

Rules for staff
1. Follow this topic and check it when you get a notification about it.
2. Don't tell others what to do. Phrase it as a suggestion.
3. I don't think I have to say this, but be kind and follow the community guidelines.
4. Staff members are allowed to bump, but if you're bumping because it's on the second page, please say that so I don't get mad at you.

Rules specifically for testers
1. Only take orders you can handle.
1.1 Make sure you have time before committing
1.2 Make sure you don't take an order for a project that is too intensive for your phone/tablet
2. Provide context
2.1 Tell what kind of device you are on, especially if it's unusual. See rule 3 for more info on what devices are allowed.
2.2 Ideally include brief background on your device, if it's strange. Using the example of my VR headset, I might say, “I did this on a VR headset, where it is harder to tap and stop tapping with precise timing.”
2.3 Like 3.4, consider and explain how it would be better or worse on a phone/tablet.
2.4 Tap the globe on whatever device you're testing on, or if it's in the main list, say which one it is
3. Use appropriate devices
3.1 Phones or tablets are always allowed
3.2 You may use a touchscreen computer, but keep in mind rules 3.3 and 3.4
3.3 If your device has a keyboard or mouse, you may not use it while testing. That defeats the whole point.
3.4 If you're doing it from a strange device (for example, I may do orders from my VR headset), consider how the experience may be different on a normal phone or tablet.

Is there any specific part of mobile controls to test and give advice on?

Announcements for staff
2024-12-29
I think 4 mobile testers is enough, so I'm going to focus on hiring people for other positions..

You are welcome to submit a little “Bio” or “status” and I will put it in the staff list. I will also display your Useragents there.
