Do you have any previous experience as a staff member in a community: Yes, I was a moderator in another community. My duties included day-to-day staffing, which I’m quite confident would be very similar here.
Tell us about something that you're proud that you've achived in-game: An example of a situation I was proud of was when I managed to de-escalate a hostile situation between a researcher and a GSD officer. I was able to hear both parties' sides of the story and get them to calm down. That’s when I realized it was a good skill for if I was staff.
Why would you like to become a staff member: My reason may sound basic, but it’s genuine. I want to help support this server that I truly enjoy being a part of. I’ve spent some time here and have come to appreciate the effort that goes into keeping things running smoothly. However, I’ve also noticed that the staff seem overwhelmed at times, there are moments when people are left waiting or situations escalate simply because there aren’t enough staff around to respond quickly. I’d like to be part of the solution by offering my time to help take some of that pressure off the current staff. I want to contribute in a meaningful way to keep it running strong.
If you could improve something on the staff team, what would it be and how would you do so: I don’t see many problems with the staff team overall, but if I had to choose something to improve, it would be the ticket response times. As I’ve mentioned before, sometimes there just aren’t enough staff available to assist players in a timely manner or to "patrol" the server and watch for rule breaks. If I were given the opportunity to join the staff team, I would make sure to contribute to the moderation of the server, not only by taking tickets, but also by roaming and overseeing RP, keeping an eye out for passive rule breakers.
