Why do I want to become a Moderator?
I would like to become a Admin of this server because I love watching people have fun meeting new friends and just having fun but... There are bad sides to this... There are hackers. So I think that I have what it takes to become a Moderator and get rid of spammers, hackers and people who just make the server an un-pleasent place to be I believe I can fix this.
How many hours a week can you dedicate to the server? I can play about 3-5 hours during the evening, but not in the morning. I have school from 7:30 to 2:12. As for the weekend, i can be on from 3-5 hours to 5-7 hours.
What other past experiences have you had? I owned a server for a couple of years (100-200 players on daily) and i've been staff on many different servers including FadeCloud, Arkham, etc.
Skills and Traits you have that could benefit our server? I have a wide range of knowledge on how to help people with any form of problem. Whether it be IRL or In-Game I've been playing minecraft for nearly 5 years I know a fair bit of history and crafting recipes in MC. As a Moderator I will strive to keep the server the best as it is. I will show my appreciation and dedication by committing the actions I am permitted to do. I have good communication skills and friendship. And I do not disband a job which I have been assigned to or delegated to be done. I am not a quitter I will do what it takes to make people happy by not doing to much to OP people.
What would you do if a member of the community told you that somebody was hacking but had no evidence?
Well, there are a large range of "illegal" things someone could be doing. The punishment really depends on the severity.
If someone is:
Being rude in chat: I would /tell them to stop. If they are bullying someone, I would also /tell them to stop and /mute them for 5 minutes. If anything continues, I would /mute them for increasing amount of time. If it gets really bad (death threats, racial slurs, etc.) I would report them to a Senior Mod or Admin, take screenshots, and /kick them for an hour until further review has taken place.
Swearing excessively: I think some swearing is okay, however they should not go too far with it. What is punishable would be excessively swearing. This includes swearing more than three times at someone or just spamming the chat with swears. So, if they are excessively swearing, I would publicly tell them to stop. If they continue, I would /mute them for five minutes. If it continues, I would /mute them for an increasing amount of time up to 30 minutes. If it goes further, I would /mute them for an hour.
Raging: If someone is raging, I would tell them to calm down (after more than two or three messages) and then /mute them for five minutes if they persist. Usually, at this point, most people would have calmed down, but if they haven't, I would continue /mute ing them for higher and higher increments of time.
Hacking: Before jumping to conclusions, I would make sure they are actually hacking all while recording to have material for reporting. If they don't immediately stop, I would /kick them for an hour if it is blatant. Whether it is blatant or not, I would Report it to an Admin or Owner.
Advertising: I would report them right after while screenshotting the chat to show other Moderators. I would get them muted for a very long time and make sure they can't do it again.
Spamming: I would tell them to stop spamming publicly. If they persist to spam the chat, I would /tell them to stop it and /mute them for ten minutes. If they still spam, I would /kick them for higher and higher increments of time, going up by ten.
Anything else you would like to say to increase your chances of becoming a staff member? I think I should be a staff member because I am a mature, well mannered, helpful, trustworthy, honest, and friendly person. I act well mannered as in not raging, I'm able to have a joke with people. I will always be helpful to all players, donors and staff however they may need help. I will always be honest and trustworthy, I will not tell lies just to keep my position. I know all commands related to being staff, therefore I will not have to annoy another staff member just to ask what command does what. I am good at helping people in different situations. I know what to do if there is a problem, and will deal with it as soon as possible and do my best to keep the server under control. I will never abuse my powers as I see no point in harming the server, as I will just get demoted and possibly banned. I will be active and always follow the rules and expectations given by higher ranks such as the owner.
