I need some assistance
So recently I've been thinking and I've come the the point where toribash is beggining to bore me, I think that it's the fact that I'm a regular member; I've been thinking about applying for some new positions to help out myself and the community, but I have absolutely no clue on what to apply for and what I'd be good at.
Opinions would be helpful..
thanks guys.

If you're experienced with the market or clans, MSquad or Clan Council will help, though it'll be harder to get those than local mod, and I doubt either of them need a new member. Uniteam is good if you like helping beginners, though once again, there was recent recruiting.
It all depends on what you like to do and are good at. For example, I was one of the first GMs when they merged TA and GK. However, I was rather inactive in-game and didn't enjoy doing tourneys or anything, so I quit (that and I didn't have the time for it). Used to have local mod in Beginner Sanctuary and Support too, before I screwed up a few times and was removed. Just remember that when you do actually apply for something, do every little job as best as you possibly can.
To sum up everything needed to get a staff job here: know the people, know the job, and give as much effort as you can.
Thanks Ray I'm currently an Lmod for [Zero] so Clan Concil might be somewhat suitible for me and I'm also pretty ingame and forum active so I could go for a sub-forum like Off Topic so I can get the feel of actually being needed to patrol the place. And as for Gm I applied when the applications were open but to no avail so I'll try again later. as for Market Squad I asked Toast for his opinion and he said that he didn't think that I was a suitible choice. (meaning I wasn't ready yet) I also get what you mean by getting to know the People and what you meant by knowing the job. And Box... Quit being sarcastic |l

Noted.
