well it really has to be your own personal reasons as to why you think that you have contributed to the BOS community, you need to justify why you think you should be made a part of the benefactors group...how do you contribute, why and in what ways? What is it about you that makes you an outstanding member of the BOS?...these are all the sorts of questions you need to think about...if you were to bullet point some reasons, what would they be? Start with them as inspiration or starting points and then expand on them...
It took me 3 hours. Either Minai or Anti have to approve...so, whenever they come online. When you send your application (which is under the group memberships tab when you edit your profile or whatever), you can look at whether you have been accepted or not.flipsyde said:

It depends on if I have the time to do a thorough search of your character - if I'm in a hurry or if I'm tired I'll probably give it a few days to think over..Tennille said:
Minai has been away and James has been quite busy so a few apps may take a little longer than we expect.

Yeah, the admins *could* let the mods set benefactors. I'm happy to do any applications now when I'm very grumpy; however, you can probably guess the outcome.
I'm back and ready to process applications. Understand that it does take a bit of time to go over an application and in some cases, search through your posts to gauge for ourselves whether you should be given that status.

I have a feeling it was more because of my lack of posts and lack of green boxes(btw, if you get someone repping you and it shows a black box instead of teh normal ones, does it mean that they click on the "!" at you?)

If a grey box appears instead of a green one that just means that person hasn't made enough posts yet (you have to make 50 before you can give rep points) either that or they have less than ten reputation points. So basically their rep is noted, but you get no points for it. This is all explained in the BOS FAQ though, see there for more info if you need it

I'd say you're allowed to re-apply, not straight away though obviously...i'd leave it awhile, and in the meantime try and make your posts meaningful and helpful, and post in threads that you think allow your posts to be this...if you really want to be a benefactor your posts need to reflect that you possess the qualities you need to become part of that group. Though saying that I don't think you should post with the intention of becoming a benefactor...be yourself and if you have benefactor like qualities, at some point you may be recognised for it :uhhuh:
