Tips for Avid Spirit Jammers

Just some random tips anyone can use for their AJS experience.

Blessings to your Spirit Jammer career, new Spirit Jammers. Here are some tips from my Spirit Jamming days...
1. Be considerate. If you get this job, you probably already have this, but its very important. Before I quit, I got crabby at people and argued a lot. That leads us to...
2. Try to respect other opinions. If somebody goes like "HA HA SUCKAH U ARE SO F***ING RETARDED AND YOUR MAMA IS FAT!" or something else stupid, DON'T REPLY TO THEM! I've actually been the insulter before, and all the insulter wants is the insultee to reprimand them and make fools of themselves. Most stupid people usually want attention. Also, if somebody disagrees, embrace that and say something like: "Well, I don't think that way, but I can see why you think that."
3. Think before you type. Seriously, I got into too much drama just ranting on and on about people being stupid. Many Jamaasians have already been through AT LEAST one scandal, so please don't horrendously give them more trouble.
4. Be sure to say "Congrats", joke around, and make friends. I was semi-popular because I always made jokes and made people feel better (I hope), and Mia was (and still is) popular because she's considerate, nice, and very, very wise. We were (and are) great friends, just from uniting to keep AJS a fun blog.
5. Get used to being stressed and having to stay online for at least 30 minutes a day. I quit partially because of that, so if you can't handle it, then don't join.
6. Don't be scared to make your own comments. Sure, much of a Spirit Jammer's career is spent replying to other people's comments, but just because a bajillion other comments are out there without replies doesn't mean your job is over! You can do it anywhere from making useful advertising, having fun with others, making notes,.. and most important of all..
BE OFFICIAL!
What I mean by that is don't be afraid to be diplomatic and strict. Yes, its part of the job.
I.E.:
Blablahblah is threatening to hack AJ and make statues of him/herself everywhere and make everyone work for him/her every time they log on to achieve certain monotonous tasks. (Yes, this actually happened. Not the enslavery, but the threat.)
You ignore them at first, but then the situtation gets severe as Blablahblah is bullying people, getting in arguments and screaming at others. (Yes, this also happened.)
What you need to do is to not directly reply to Blablahblah, but actually either contact Snowyclaw or another Spirit Jammer to handle things with you, and then post a comment like this:
"Blablahblah, you have to stop your current activity, because it is enroaching on the pleasure of other Spirit Fans, and all these comments are SPAM: Stupid Pointless Annoying Messages. Although yes, you could keep on posting, I can't stop you. I've already gotten others involved, and if you continue this activity, I will give you more warnings if you continue.
This is your first warning."
So, got it? Don't be afraid of diplomacy!
6. There are spambots on AJS frequently. Got it? Don't make a big deal; although its good to make jokes about what they say.
7. Once a Spirit Jammer, always a Spirit Jammer. If you need further help with Spirit Jamming, or need tips on becoming one, contact me on my blog @ jamaasloreclub.blogspot.com by going on my Ask Page!
