-
Have you received any kicks/bans/warnings? and why?: I recently received an RDM warning due to a misinterpretation of a rule on the forums. However, I hope that this won't overshadow my otherwise clean record. I would appreciate it if, during the interview, we can discuss the incident instead of resorting to a 2-week "band-aid" solution.

Do you have any previous experience as a staff member in a community?: Yes, quite a bit. All of my experience comes from outside of GMOD, but it is experience nonetheless.
-

-
How many hours can you be on every day?: On weekdays, you can expect me to be available for an hour or more, and on weekends, I will likely be available for over two and a half hours.
-
Why do you want to become a moderator for our server?: From day one, I've complained about the issues I see on this server. I could go on endlessly about what I think needs to change, but I realize that without making an effort to help, nothing will improve. I may not be able to make significant changes anytime soon, or even at all, but I can still make this server one percent better one person at a time.

What do you think you would be able to help us with on the server? Why are you special over the other applicants?: I will be happy to help with whatever you need, I would like to work on server content (I have a theory about minges) but I'll be happy with whatever.

I believe my personal experiences with bias and unfair treatment by staff bring a unique perspective to the role that sets me apart from other applicants. While this may seem like a disadvantage, it has given me a deeper understanding of what not to do, and I am confident that I can be fair and unbiased in my moderation. Furthermore, I am committed to monitoring myself to ensure that I am not contributing to the problem I joined to stop. If you have any further questions about why I was put in that situation, I would be happy to discuss it during the interview.
 
Neutral Support

No Personal Interaction
I've only seen you on CL1/2 jobs (I see it has a issue personally)

Previous Staff experience
From what I've seen you're very much of a minge and from other members you act like it.

I will change my verdict if you choose to poke me on TS. My name is Doom Guy and I usually stay inside of External Affairs.

I just wanted to address some verdicts that people have added

  • Short/ lacking app
Whenever I make an application I try to keep it short and sweet, I believe making something longer for the sake of being longer is redundant. That being said, I have purposefully left out elaboration on some parts due to avoiding a text wall and I once again encourage you to ask me if I get to the interview stage.

  • Cl1/2 jobs
This is true to an extent I have been in regiments before and I just happen to be in between regiments at this time. I do enjoy playing on CL1/2 when I'm just chilling because I don't have any responsibilities and I can roam freely while I look for RP interactions.

  • Minge
I will admit I have taken up behaviors that somebody who doesn't interact with me could put me into a category. I believe if somebody looks at me from an un-bias level they would not put me into this category:

I follow server rules whenever I am playing as CL1/2, unlike traditional "mingers"

I actively look for RP scenarios and try to engage people when I can.

Rarely I will act slightly more in line with the minge stereotype but, there is a time and a place for everything. As long as you don't break server rules and it doesn't become a common thing I personally think that "play style" has a place within civil networks, IA would be useless without them.

All that being said I don't want to put out the wrong idea; I support people who break rules and actively make it less fun for people around them. I will always dislike you if that is all you try to do.

  • Low playtime
500 hours is around 20 days of playtime which I personally wouldn't consider low.

  • No interactions
I happen to be in the PST timezone which I have noticed is a little uncommon so often I don't get to meet some otherwise active members.

Hope this answered some of yall and I encourage you to keep updating me with any other concerns.

Hi Issac,

Thanks for taking the time to make a moderator application.

Whilst you have plenty of playtime in the past, your recent playtime is below what would be expected for a staff member. It appears that you have recently come back to the server. I would encourage you to play the server more to gain an a more contemporaneous understanding of it.

You may re-apply in 2 weeks​
