Accepted Wario's JMOD App

Brawl Junior Moderator Application:
*Disclaimer* I had asked Cuddled if I was allowed to reuse information.

Have you read over this thread? - Yes, many times.

What is your in-game name? - Wario

Have you changed your name in the past? If you have, please list them. - I have a variety of accounts but I have changed my name once on Wario and that was from _Skeeter_. Some players may know me as rec, or Betrayal, or even thunderpigs.

Does anyone else have access to your Minecraft account? -

No, I have full access to my account.

How old are you? - I am 16 years of age.

What time zone are you in? - I’m in MST

Are you multilingual? Can you speak multiple languages? - I’m not multilingual although I am in a Spanish class, I’m not close to nor near fluent in Spanish.

What is your experience and knowledge of Minecraft? - I have been playing minecraft since September 26th, 2012. I have a general if not advanced knowledge of minecraft’s common features and tools. Now, with playing Minecraft for so long comes pros and cons; for instance, some of the pros are you understand the game and know most if not all of the in game features. Some of the cons include playing a lot. I first starting playing minecraft by the influence of my old friends Tyler101102 and Trenton71101. First server I started playing was a server called PRPvP, a faction server that I just absolutely fell in love with. Once me and my friends got into an argument we realized factions wasn’t for us. After about 6 months of factions, we went on the search for servers we came across multiplayerservers.com a server that advertised unusual and out of the ordinary servers. Once I joined the server for the first time I was hesitant wondering if I would like the server or not. I had tried all the servers that interested me at the time, those included War and WarZ. My friend Trenton got really into War but I personally didn’t find as much interest in War as he did, so we split. I really enjoyed WarZ once I first joined and within hours of joining I donated to the server for VIP. I just found so much potential and enjoyment out of the server. Me and my friend Tyler101102 continued on WarZ bringing my friend Trenton from War over to WarZ and we started making friends. Back then I was known the account thunderpigs. I have stuck with WarZ and Brawl through every change and every crack in the server. I stuck with it through thick and thin and still here today, as you can see.

What is your experience with moderating servers, if any? - I have not had many moderating positions in my past but I have had a couple, those include:

FadePvP: Administrator rank, prison server owned by old WarZ player Vicadoose.

ColdPvP (HazeHq): I was a moderator on there for about a month before the server had reset.

AriaUHC: I am a Moderator on this server that runs UHC’s every once in a while each UHC gets around 90-100 players each game. Being moderator on this server won’t jeopardize my activity on Brawl what so ever. (Proof: https://gyazo.com/de81fa10403eed43074fd78dad0c9171)

NOTE: I do not have proof of these ranks because all of the screenshots I have had from these servers are on my old PC which I no longer have access too.

What will you provide to the community if you are provided moderator status? - If given the opportunity as a JMOD on Brawl I would provide a safer environment for the server meaning cleaning up of hackers, and abusers and such. In the past few weeks, I have reported an abundance of players for hacking, abusing, glitching etc… I’m also quite good at keeping a close eye on the chat looking for spammers, flood, flame etc… I would always put moderating ahead of any other position I'm in, even if that means to die for answering a question a player has asked me in the chat. I would not show favoritism towards certain players by abusing nor refusing to mute/kick them for not obeying the rules of Brawl.

Have you ever used a hacked client before? - Yes, I have. I have been banned on my account thunderpigs (which is now rec) back in 2013 for forcefield when I was ‘young and dumb’. I left to go take a shower and forgot to leave the game/turn off my hacks and someone recorded me using no kb and forcefield.

Have you ever been banned on a Minecraft server? If so, why? - I have been banned on brawl for a short period of time due to the fact that I have used a hacked client back in 2013. I was issued the ban for the reasoning of Forcefield and have been feeling regret ever since. I have also been banned for Ride Along due to the fact that I was with some players that told me to friend this “new” player, and I had no idea that the kid was hacking. My mistake that I have realized is that I should not friend players who are unknown to me.

What do you consider your greatest strength? - I consider my greatest strength my dedication. Whatever I put my mind to, I tend to finish it with integrity and entirety.

What do you consider your greatest weakness? - I seem to think my greatest weakness would be not being in public channels as often as I wish to be in the future. I’ve been increasing my public channel activity slowly but not at the rate that I’m wishing to achieve.

How active do you consider yourself on Brawl? - I consider myself very active on Brawl.

In-game: I am always on Brawl either playing WarZ or just chilling out on Party. When I’m not in-game I will be somewhere near where I can be reached.

Teamspeak: I am on TS every day, some of the time I am in private channels under the TS name “Wario”. Other times I’m in public channels talking to other players of the Brawl community. I’m mostly active in the WarZ public channel just talking with other WarZ players and sometimes even playing with them in-game as well.

Forums: As of posting this I have 234 posts on the forums, my forums activity has improved since my last application, but not to the standard that I have expected of myself. I am always on the forums and I post where help is needed within the community, I don’t feel as though spam posting to raise your post count helps in anyway towards activity being displayed on the fourms. I’ve been working on my forums activity more and more each day, and someday soon, I hope to work my way up the ladder of forum posts.

Which Brawl servers are you most active on? - I’m most active on the WarZ server. I started with this server on brawl, and I’m hoping to finish on it!

How many hours can you provide a day and during what time frame? - It’s hard to determine how many hours a single person can be on each and every day. I can’t really narrow it down to a certain time period on which I’ll be playing and when I won’t be. I will be very active if I am given the opportunity as a JMOD

What would you do if someone breaks a rule in-game? - A consequence would be determined upon the rule broken. For example, if a player was flaming in chat, I would first warn them and tell them what rule they are violating. After I warn them and the player continues I would mute them for the amount of time that is given for that rule violation.

If a player abuses a known glitch, such as lava glitching I would notify them in chat and then once I notify them I would temp ban for the appropriate time.

What would you do if someone breaks a rule on the forums? -

Grave dig: Depending if the thread is still being discussed or the thread has become obsolete. If the thread has not been discussed in over 2 months the thread would then be considered obsolete, therefore would result in a lock.

Flame: I would warn them on the thread for flame and if it continued it would then result in a lock of the thread.

Thread in wrong section: I would type that the thread is in the wrong section and then explain why and where I moved the thread, and then move it to the correct section.

What would you do if someone breaks a rule on TS3? - If someone broke a rule on TS3, it would depend on the rule broken. If in a public channel people are trolling, I will warn them for the rule violation, if it continues I would kick them for the appropriate reason. Same would apply to Music and Mic spamming.

Situation (as a staff member): You log on Brawl, and you’re told that there is a huge, game-breaking economy glitch. No Admins are online to solve the situation. What steps would you take to handle the issue? -

First, I would calm players down, and answer each and every question to my best ability a player has for me

Warn players then ban if continued to exploit the game breaking glitch.

Contact an SMOD+ on forums or slack to notify them of the game breaking economy glitch

How many Brawl staff applications have you made in the past? - One, my last mod app was posted on January 3rd, 2016 and was denied on January 9th, 2016.

What is the date of the last application you submitted? - November 11, 2015

Do you have a working microphone? - Yes

Are you able to record and upload videos? - Yes, I record with QuickTime Player and edit with iMovie. I am on a Mac so those are my easiest and quickest options to record and edit with, and works quite well. I also have a YouTube channel where I upload WarZ montages pretty actively.

Do you generally know how all the staff member commands work? - Yes, because I have been friends with many past and present Brawl mods+ I have a good understanding of how most of the staff commands work and how they are used, when and where.

Anything else we should know about you? - I am a Junior in High school and quite involved in school activities such as clubs and hanging out with friends outside of school. I usually am on daily, but if my activity begins to fluctuate for any reason (which it shouldn’t) staff would be notified.

No specific reason other then that my grandparents have been in town for about a week now and I've been trying to spend as much time with them as possible before they have to leave.

 

@BlueGuyARed, To be quite honest with you, my maturity has improved greatly since October of 2015. If you had known me before then I was very toxic in chat and just wasn't very delightful to be around. I would be very demanding and very controlling over people. I have changed and it's very noticeable, for me and for others to see. I'm not even sure if you and I have spoken before, but I would like that to change so that I can show you that I am indeed mature enough for a position like this. And for your comment about me just trying to get JMOD for the personal benefit is completely false, I'd like the chance to get this position to actually benefit the server instead of benefitting me. As you know the WarZ server has only 2 mods for 10 servers, they need help, but they need the right person. I've played WarZ for around 2 1/2 years and I know all there is to know about WarZ and the mechanics. If there's anything else you'd like to know just ask!

 

Thank you all for the positive feedback. I truly appreciate you guys believing that I have what it takes to become a JMOD.
