    I have been working hard on the forums and in-game to work on becoming a moderator for Mc-Warfare. These questions are to all the Super Mods and Mods:

    How long have you been playing Mc-War?

    How much times are you on in-game and forums every week?

    What are something's I can do to become a better helper to have a better chance of becoming a mod?

    I have sometimes been helpful in-game answering questions noobs have and just overall. I try to be helpful, anything else I can do?

    How long have you been playing Mc-War? I have been playing MC-WAR since around February 5th. I have also played MC-WAR a few times before I got the account of CaptainBrawler, but I was really bad and only played until like level 6.

    How much times are you on in-game and forums every week? I am on the Forums every time I log onto my computer and every time I open the Forums, I load Minecraft and play either War or WarZ. I am probably on the Forums like 3-4 hours a day and in game around 4-5 hours on Weekends.

    What are something's I can do to become a better helper to have a better chance of becoming a mod? Make sure to have 300+ posts before applying, as well as being very active on the TeamSpeak3 server, and responding to peoples answers, etc.

    I have sometimes been helpful in-game answering questions noobs have and just overall. I try to be helpful, anything else I can do? 1) Do not call people noobs. 2) Do not rage. 3) Be nice. 4) Answer questions.

    How long have you been playing Mc-War? I've been playing since August 2013, just before the spawn changed. Unlike most new members, I didn't really want to apply for moderator. A lot has changed.

    How much times are you on in-game and forums every week? I am usually checking the forums the same frequency as I check my messages. A lot. I am on for 5 hours through out the whole day, mainly on McWar. Along with this, I log on to Team speak either in a channel with my friends, the McWar channel or Mod channel.

    What are something's I can do to become a better helper to have a better chance of becoming a mod? Act appropriately and mature. No one wants to have someone who can never be mature, sure you can have some fun every once in a while, but don't make seem like you are always childish.

    Be cautious with how you type to someone. Write with good grammar, and avoid saying stuff that might anger that person.

    Activity is a huge role as a moderator. Try to log in to team speak daily, but don't try to fool by being in the AFK room and doing something else. Try to post on active discussions and avoid pointless, irrelevant and sometimes duping comments.

    Have goods sportsmanship. I probably have never raged or insulted someone over a game, and you should do it too. Say good shot whenever you die on a good killstreak.

    Learn to deal with different people, and never lose self control. I've had to deal with different people, some of them are just as friendly as me, which really makes me feel good talking to the new members. I've encountered rude people who say pretty rude comments such as "Did I ask for your help?". And there are people who are cruel to the heart who have nothing but cold things to say to you. What I do is just simply don't respond to their comments, as all they want is my annoyance and anger. Never insult anyone even if they insulted you, it just makes you seem like you are on their level.

    Be the better man and human when you encounter every type of person. Don't type what you may regret. Act your age.

    How long have you been playing Mc-War?
    ~December 2012

    How much times are you on in-game and forums every week?
    I come on the servers around two or three times a day to do my reports and sometimes some to play. I go on and off on the forums.

    What are something's I can do to become a better helper to have a better chance of becoming a mod?
    Get noticed by helping us on the servers, by giving feedback on forum posts, and by talking to us on TeamSpeak3.

    You should actively report rule breakers and be honest on your application. Follow the rules!

    1. Since January 2013. I've been playing for a very long time. I suggest you play for at least 2 months before applying, and get well known.
    2. I typically spend about an hour or 2 if I have time playing. When I'm busy, it drops down to around 30 minutes.
    The forums are something to do when I'm bored, so I'm there posting pretty often.
    3. Help those newbies. Get noticed as a kind and helpful person, be outgoing, etc. Don't let ragers get to you, and don't become one.
    You don't need to be skilled to be a mod, just kind and helpful.
    Posting on the forums is a way to get well known. You'll be more likely to be accepted if you are active on the forums.
    4. FC has a really good answer here. One more thing is to be kind, don't turn into a rager who tries too hard. Don't be that guy who says "f*ck you" whenever someone kills him or says "48-0 VBG" as they're unpleasant, to say the least. Be that guy who congratulates the person who killed him, and say "gg" even if you did terribly. It's not about the KDR, it's about the fun you have.

    For about two years.

    I am on both daily.

    Stop calling people noobs, unless you talk about people who use the word noob for other purposes.

    How long have you been playing Mc-War?- August 2012

    How much times are you on in-game and forums every week?
    Forums- Every day, about 3-4 hrs
    Most every day- about 1-3 hrs

    What are something's I can do to become a better helper to have a better chance of becoming a mod?
    Always keep up in chat in mcwar, answer questions, and never rage at people. If you are a reasdonable guy, they will recognize that. If you are just a immature rager, they can recognize that also.

    How long have you been playing Mc-War?
    Almost two years, September 2012 I believe
    How much times are you on in-game and forums every week?
    Id say server wise a solid 6 hours a day (since schools out now) as for the forums all day

    What are something's I can do to become a better helper to have a better chance of becoming a mod?
    Having moderator status is more than just having a pink tag remember that, what you can do is:
    * Not rage in the chat
    * Help people when they need it
    * TS3 is a huge part in an application if you ever apply( it's a way you communicate with the community but with talking, imagine Skype but on a much bigger scale.)
    * As for the forums just don't spam posts just to get your post count up.

    Thank you monkey so much! I am gonna work on more team speak because I haven't been on it a lot. I'm never gonna rage and simply ignore hate. I love helping people and having a pink tag is the last thing that I want :wink:

    You should wait until you have 400+ posts, as you should be a big part of the community, and you can't really be with less posts. And if you get that many posts in 2 weeks, chances are you're spamming. Just some advice.

    Around December 2012.

    How much times are you on in-game and forums every week?
    I'm on as much as possible. It varies day-by-day.

    What are something's I can do to become a better helper to have a better chance of becoming a mod?
    Get well known in the community, answer questions, be kind.

    I have sometimes been helpful in-game answering questions noobs have and just overall. I try to be helpful, anything else I can do?
    Refrain from using the term noob. Make some friends. Post rule-breaker reports regularly.
