Some of the stickies from the old JV would be great to have here. If anyone wants to move them over, I'll go ahead and stick them.
A good resource to use is http://web.archive.org.

The picture is pending an update, as 1python64/pything are no longer staff accounts.
In total, there are 4 admins and no moderators (making 4 total staff members). However, bls1999/Ben, Dangevin/DaBombs, and Eternal/Zach are all the same people. This brings the total number of staff accounts to 7.

Through a painstakingly tedious process, I was able to get JV's old header for this site. Hooray!
In other news, it seems that the folding at home banner is broken for the time being. I can't do anything about that since it's F@H's server that needs to be fixed and not mine. Oh well. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

| Standards for Contests with Prizes |

Contests are fun ways for members of the community to promote fun, the growth of this site, and PR2! Of course, we only want to approve contests that we deem to be functional and fair. With that in mind, the staff would like to provide you with an insight into the standards we hold for contests run by members.
Please note that it's not necessary for you to have exactly what is listed here to have to be approved, these are just some general guidelines. For instance, if you come to us with a different setup that doesn't require some of these things but is still functional and fair, it can still gain our approval. All of the guidelines (not rules) are subject to change, so please don't expect it to be strictly limited to what is posted here when trying to create your contest.
Another thing to keep in mind is that users are not allowed to offer up prizes that they themselves have earned through other contests as rewards for their own contests. All prizes must be approved by the staff team (apart from prizes that don't require staff intervention, such as folding prizes).
Guidelines
The duration of which the contest has been running: 2-3 weeks.
A contest should have to be running for this set amount of time before we will consider it for approval. The reason for this is that we want to make sure that the competition is being run smoothly and fairly, as well as making sure it's fun and beneficial to the community in some form. Again, this is easily subject to change depending on whatever factors happen to come into play, but a bit of your own discretion and common sense is required for when you believe it's suitable for approval.
Amount of judges (and how they're selected):
We want to have an appropriate amount of judges (excluding the host) for a contest. We will also be assessing how the judges are chosen. We don't want it as a "volunteer and get the job without question" type of thing.
Popularity:
This one is somewhat unmeasurable, but it's not difficult to notice if a majority of people aren't happy with how the contest is being run, or if the contest isn't receiving many participants for whatever reason.
Contest Layout:
We would like a very clear thread about how the contest is run, what it's about, how it goes, etc. We won't be approving poorly written stuff (and this is only to the extent where it's painfully unreadable). Of course proper grammar and spelling isn't too much of a fuss as long we can still understand what's going on clearly. We don't expect perfect English, just understandable English.
Owner Motivation & Status:
The host of the competition will have to be considered "active" and also be in the rank of Ultimate Member. As well as that, we don't want a host who only made the competition to be able to be granted some power, since that shows a bit of corruption in how the competition will be run and lack of care/devotion to it. Trust me, we can notice these things. There's also a very important message about this which will be added soon towards the bottom of the guide.
No History of Cheating or Foul Play:
We want a completely clean contest that has no history of cheating or any corruption. Having a contest that is able to award prizes is a big responsibility, so we don't want to give approval to a contest with shoddy history.
Owner Conduct:
It is important that the hosts, before and after approval, display mature, respectful and unbiased behavior. It's also important to note that as they will be working very closely with the Mods in regards to their contest, they will have to abide by whatever we ask of them in regards to the contest, that is if they wish to keep their prizes. On this note, hosts are not allowed to give any additional prizes away apart from to winners of their contests without staff approval.
Rules and Tips
- It will take 3 staff members (at least 1 of which being an admin) to approve a contest before it can be accepted as a contest offering official prizes. However, it only takes 1 negative vote from an admin or 2 negative votes from mods to disapprove it.
- We will at some point, have to cut down on how many competitions we can approve at a certain time. Simply because we will have to monitor all of them to make sure they're continuing to be run fairly. With that, we can only have as many contests as is manageable by the mods.
- To start the contest review process, please post a thread in the Ask a Mod section with [PRIZE REQUEST] in the title. We will only be giving our responses there.
- If a contest wants to allow their staff to compete and win, they need to have this approved by the Staff first in addition to their hosting approval.
- The person who runs the contest is a big part of what we use to decide if we want it as an official contest for the game and site. So really, both the contest and the owner are judged, not just the contest. If someone is rude, impolite and a general jerk, and yet has a great contest, we'll still deny it. The owners are representatives of the site, and they are given a large amount of power, so we don't want people who are jerks to really be in that position (since it would make the game and site look bad, along with making the community unhappy).
Disciplinary Actions
We have a 3 strike system for contests. This is in case the host happens to act rude or use their contest as an, "I'm better than you" card. This can also apply to any forms of cheating or bias that comes to our attention, as well as power abuse.
Strikes won't necessarily be warranted for minor offenses, but anything that directly makes the competition, game, or forum look bad. The number of strikes received at any given time will be decided amongst the staff and will not be the same in every case. Some people may receive more or less, depending on the situation.
Please remember that hosts are representatives of the community, and not to mention, 1 banned host is 1 less contest. We want to avoid inactive contests, as well as rude or insubordinate conduct from hosts. This has been discussed with Jiggmin, and he has agreed completely. So please, we ask that you all wear your best attitude when being a role model for our community.
As always, not everything can be covered by a guide. There may be incidents in which it would be appropriate to create a rule after we discover a problem, which may lead to disciplinary action without warning. This is why we ask that if a host is in doubt about taking a certain action, they immediately take their concern to Ask a Mod before doing anything themselves. The staff team is always willing to help and clarify things, so please use us as much as necessary to avoid issues.
I hope this was helpful, and that using this you guys can also work to create awesome contests. Good luck to everyone!

Lots of different types of media can include references to things that are inappropriate for JV. These can include (but are not limited to) swear words, violence, and racism.
Before posting, please make sure your content adheres to the village rules.
