I definitely want to be a volunteer. Help society. I tutored poor kids for free in india and I am still doing it. I want to be of help. Our purpose of life is to help people. Thats it. If we have knowledge. Its not ours to keep. Its the peoples right to know.

What does a CA do? Apart from move threads.

What extra powers come with as ST over a CA? And what’s the difference between a ST member and a CT member?
Sorry if this isn’t the place to ask these questions, I’m just curious 😂

ST are the first level of volunteers doing user moderation so we can hand out basic cards to people for rule breaking within our section and remove posts from being publicly visible. Depending on section some help mentor CAs. We go to meets at points during the year to discuss projects, team build and be rewarded for our efforts. You do however have to be 16+ and have an enhanced DBS check carried out as you officially are volunteering for TSR.

Content creation, helping CT/SL/STs with projects for their section and answering unanswered threads. In additon to providing feedback to the TSR Team about the site in terms of broken things, what could be done better or on upcoming things.

Content creation and making thread ideas for the site, we work just as hard even though we are 'lower down'

Essentially everything that @8472 said, but didnt mention that CT members are actual paid employees of The Student Room and work at TSR HQ in Brighton, as are 'TSR Group Staff' (the green people). They are also employees of TSR but dont work on site like the CT but in marketing or finance etc

Several CAs are not.

Just make a thread in the forum linked in the OP (forum should appear to be empty) and give an idea of which parts of the site you'd like to help and why.

Just done it now but let me copy it here so you can see it: (also how do I change my username)
I am bilingual (French and English) and I will be able to help students with their GCSE (or iGCSE), KS3 exams (I am over the age of 14). I Got a 9 for my GCSE and happen to be a native speaker. I also might want to be a French teacher when I am older and doing this will probably be a good head start (sorry not that good at essay writing or when it comes to personal statements lol 😂 need to practice A LOT) I'll be able to write translations and French essays though (as replies to threads)
