    What position you are applying for

    Admin or Moderator

    In-game name

    500

    Skype name

    indigosushi

    Skills

    I can configure and manage plugins (irrelevant), build sort of (also irrelevant), and I know how to use the majority of common plugins like WorldEdit, WorldGuard, Essentials, PEX, and GroupManager. I have been a big part of many servers and run my own a couple times. I do graphic design sort of and I usually like to do grunt work as long I'm preoccupied.

    Personality

    I am okay to get along with. I come with my share of flaws, like anybody else, though. I am obsesive (but not as compulsive) and sometimes annoyingly ADHD. For the most part I keep this all to myself, but I've been known to be mean or annoying without realizing it. I've found that I can be overly literal as well, meaning I might forget to take into consideration somebody's feelings when commenting on something like a build. I hope you understand that this is all painfully literal and I'm in no way 100% always like this.

    How much time you can offer

    4-6 hours on school days (monday - friday) and 8-12 hours on weekends.

    Past experience in this position or something similar

    I've been dev/admin/plugin-guy too many times, but that doesn't mean the quality of my service is any less.

    Why do you deserve this spot

    I'm looking for somewhere to spend some time I normally allocate to moping and YouTube.

    How can I trust that you are going to be a dedicated/devoted staff member

    As long as I'm not solely assigned the project of creating a server, like some owners think is a great idea, then I plan on being very loyal.

    How important is this to you

    I know what it's like to have a new server and how important it is to you. It is important to me as you need it to be right now.

    Anything else I should know

    I'll be here all night! I probably will though...

    Favorite things to do as a Moderator with the community (chatting, events, etc.):

    I like to be very chatty a lot of the time, but I don't think I would be the one running events.

    Rate yourself 1 to 10: Maintaining formality, understanding, and authority when players are upset:

    8.5/10 (I use perfect grammar and 'keep my cool' 99% of the time)

    Rate yourself 1 to 10 in communicating with other players:

    9/10 (I only speak English if that makes any difference)

    Rate yourself 1 to 10 in patience:

    9/10 (I've lived with two disabled siblings all my life, so I consider myself well geared to take on just about any situation)

    Rate yourself 1 to 10 in maturity:

    8/10 (I still like to have fun!)

    Rate yourself 1 to 10 in cooperation with fellow moderators/players:

    7/10 (I admit I can be a butt sometimes)

    How much time could you contribute?

    My schedule is a bit sporadic at the moment, but it's generally 4-5 hours on weekdays, and 8 - 12 hours on weekends.

    Experience + proof?

    As far as I know, all of the servers I have been apart of staff on have came and gone like most do.

    What makes you stand out from any other Moderators or staff we would have on the server?

    I have exstensive knowledge on the technical side of servers and general technology concerns such as web development.

    1. What makes you capable for this roll on TSGN (Team Survival Games Network)?

    I'm experienced in just about every field of server development and moderation. Any new ways to moderate won't be hard to pick up quickly. EDIT: I can't vouch for any staff experiences because they've probably all came and gone by now.

    2. How can you benefit us?

    I'm a very dedicated person and I'm happy to help. I've learned to be very patient as well, having lived with certain types of people all my life.

    3. What makes you unique personality-wise, and also from the other people who want to be staff?

    Again, I'm very patient. I naturally love to help people and I especially love to assist with technical things.

    4. What is your timezone?

    Central Standard Time (GMT -6:00)

    5. What are your weaknesses?

    I'm unofficially diagnosed with ADHD, so I tend to lose focus. It doesn't impair anything, it just doesn't help on long or tedious tasks.

    6. What do you want to be moderator on TSGN?

    It sounds like a fun way to apply my skills.

    7. What is your Skype, real name, and IGN name?

    My name is Isaac. I'm known as 500 in-game, and my skype name is indigosushi. EDIT 2: First skype was an old account, sorry. :\

    Minecraft (especially mods) are built to use a lot of ram and cpu. The more land, blocks and items you render, the more RAM and CPU it uses. The video card doesn't effect the gameplay nearly as much as the other two.

    On another note: If you want to increase performance, allocate more RAM to Minecraft and it can hold more temporary data (like rendering).

    Experience: I run a server off my computer where I configure plugins and build some stuff. I've worked with tons of server making spawns and structures, and it's been really fun so far.
    Work Examples(Preferably Pictures.): Sadly, the only "official" build I have on record is the one I've posted on this account. Everything else has pretty much gone unrecorded :\
    Can you build is a Minecraft/Rustic style? Sure.
    Do you fit all requirements? As far as I can tell, yes.

    Reason: I love being a part of growing communities. Seeing how I've helped a server always gives me a good feeling and I think helping people should be something everyone looks forward to.

    How I can help: Other than knowing how to be a moderator and role model towards lower players, I can provide experience in every aspect of server creating and managing. I can configure and use just about any plugin, create a sweet website (courtesy of enjin ), and manage any amount of players you'll get. I own a personal test server run off my computer that could give you a glimpse as to what skills I have.

    Scenarios:

    I would give a warning to the one who griefed, assuming the policy isn't 'no-tolerance'.

    Depending on the rules of the server, I'd probably ask him to take it down due to it being offensive to other players on the server. If he didn't I would do it myself.

    I would give them stern warnings at first. If they continued I would mute them, all while remaining calm.

    I would ask him where he got the items. If the items are otherwise impossible to get in-game I'd confiscate them indefinitely. If not, I'd attempt to figure out who gave them to him and report it to you or someone else who can fix it.

    Your IGN: CauseEffect

    Your Age: 14

    Your Time Zone: Central Standard Time (CST)

    Any days you can't be on: Only sunday (9AM to 1-2PM)

    Skype: isaacewoody

    Why do you want to be Admin: I feel that my extensive knowledge on server management can benefit you and your players and I always like to be a part of an active server.

    What responsibilities do you expect as admin: I am very versatile, and can be in charge of building, recruitment, advertising, plugins, website design, server design, aesthetics, or nearly anything else you can think of.

    Experience as Staff: I run a personal server that is fully configured on occasion but is mostly used for testing plugins and building. I've been lucky to have staff on a number of servers, most of them being new like this. I did my best on every single one to improve them, but sadly they all went down eventually due to poor planning or ban ownership.

    Are you in the staff of another server: No.

    Experience with Plugins: As I said before, I own a personal server dedicated for testing and building. I keep all the plugins fully configured on it including doing the permission nodes myself. Occasionally I even reset the server to just config for something to do. To prove my knowledge, I'd probably have to show you on site, but I assure you it won't take long to prove.

    What can you offer to this server: I can offer you someone who knows bukkit very well and can configure and use any part of it, someone who can make the server look beautiful (whether it be through organization of chat or building of beautiful structures), and someone who has plenty of patience for fellow players.

    Why should I accept you: I think I have proved my point in that I am heavily experienced in all aspects of Minecraft and Bukkit. That alone should at least give me a chance towards being part of your staff.

    Any additional info: None.
