Are you legally entitled to work in Canada?
No. But I have spoken with Mark (Aristotle here at MyBB) about this already.
Do you have expierence with Hosting?
Yes, I hosted and ran createbb.com for a while, before selling it to another member here at mybb.com.
Can you do HTML Markup?
Yes, a fair bit. Not much experience with HTML5 though, but I'm willing to learn.
CSS?
Yes. Currently beggining to learn some CSS3 stuff.
Program in PHP, or any other programming languages?
Yes. I have a lot of experience with PHP. Including areas such as PHP Cryptography and GD library. I am also a competent vb.NET programmer. I am programming a search engine crawler with PHP front-end for a college project.
Do you have any experience in webhosting?
I have a bit of experience with createbb.com, but a lot as a customer (unmanaged VPS owner
)
Do you have experience with CPanel?
Yes, I used it for about a year and a half before moving to DirectAdmin due to the cost cPanel was adding to my bill.
Do you have experience with WHM?
Yes, all of the cPanel accounts I have had were WHM/cPanel.
Do you have experience with SSH?
Yes, I have been on an unmanaged VPS for about a year now. I also ran a minecraft server for a while.
Do you have a deep knowledge of Linux commands?
Quite deep. I would say I am a "light" linux user. But Google is my friend, and I am pretty good with problem solving
Thanks for considering my application

Are you legally entitled to work in Canada?
No
Do you have expierence with Hosting?
Yes, but haven't been on a free forum host that pre-installs the forum for you for a long time
.
Can you do HTML Markup?
Yes
CSS?
Yes
Program in PHP, or any other programming languages?
I understand a lot of the basics of php but that's about it.
Do you have any experience in webhosting?
I want to say yes as I did do a little free hosting for people back when I had adminlounge running. But, honestly it was only a few people and Direct Admin did most of the work.
But, I have set up an unamaged vps a few times too.
Do you have experience with CPanel?
Yes, every shared host I've had uses it.
Do you have experience with WHM?
Very little I quickly moved to Direct Admin.
Do you have experience with SSH?
Yes, used it a lot when setting up and managing my VPSs.
Do you have a deep knowledge of Linux commands?
I don't know if I would say deep but I know enough to get most basic tasks done and anything I don't know I can usually find pretty quickly.
Mark, are you considering using our themes still? If so, I'd like to be somewhat involved.

We are of course, we have just been set back a while because of implications with our setup versus how we would like to like to deploy this server.
May sound like a dumb question..but what exactly are the staff going to be doing? Not trying to get on your case about having staff pre-launch, just curious as to what I'm applying for.
