Accepted Matt's HG Mod Application

Brawl Junior Moderator Application​

Please note: I won't be too active in-game or TS in the next month due to exams

Read over this thread: https://www.brawl.com/threads/14752/
If you do not meet the requirements (active, helpful, must have TeamSpeak, etc) do not apply yet; it will be an auto deny.
Maturity - I do believe that I am mature, I usually don't complain about deaths and hackers, if I die I tend to laugh it off, if I see a hacker I would turn on my recorder and try to keep others silent about it.
Activity - My activity in-game and TS has dropped over the last week because of exams, and may not be too much until mid-October, but during the previous 2 weeks I have been more active on TS and in-game, speaking in public channels and having friendly conversations with people in game.
Helpfulness - I have a very good knowledge of HG, and I've tried my best to help out newer players, be it during pre-game or during the game itself
Reporting rule breakers - I have been reporting any rule breakers I have found, coming in report champion for July 2015.

What is your in-game name? - Mattyz_
Previous names:
- MattMarc1
- MattM1PVP
- MSNthreesome
- MattM1PVP

No guarantees I wouldn't change my name again, but if I do it should be something that has the name "Matt" in there
Is your Minecraft account secured and migrated? - Yes

How old are you? - 16
What time zone are you in? - SST (UTC -11)
Are you multilingual? Can you speak multiple languages? - English and Chinese. I also have access, and I am more than willing to use it if I need to communicate to someone. I have done this on a Brazilian server before.

What is your experience and knowledge of Brawl? - I joined May 22, 2015, 5 days after MCPVP closed down. Since I'm applying for HG mod, I'll talk about HG. I've been an active player of Brawl, playing HG since it was in beta on Brawl up till now. I know how almost every kit works, and I know multiple strategies to win in HG. Besides that, I know how to soup decently.
Apart from HG, I tend to play Party and Raid. I know quite little about Party, but I know a decent amount of stuff on Raid, which I can pass on to new players if they require help.
What is your experience with moderating servers, if any? - I have never moderated any public server, only a private server that I hosted, and invited a few friends to play on. On that server, I had to investigate someone for X-Ray. Although I didn't ban him because I didn't have enough evidence, I learnt a few important lessons from that:
1. Never ban without sufficient evidence
2. The difficulties of having to investigate someone for a hack that could be quite difficult to catch
Continuing from point 2, although it may be difficult, and would require a lot of patience, I enjoyed doing so, and hope to bring that enthusiasm into the Brawl Staff Team
Why do you want to become a moderator on Brawl? -

1. I've seen a couple of threads complaining about a lack of staff, and one specifically talking about HG. I got a lot of encouragement seeing myself tagged in there, so I decided to be start fulfilling the necessary requirements to be a staff member, and hopefully revive HG to its glory days
2. I've also seen complaints that staff aren't on TS and don't help people who are in the support channel, so if I become a mod I will go into TS and help people in that channel. This image proves my point
   
3. I want to close the gap between the staff team and the community, not only by bringing up ideas to the staff team, but also (if it's allowed) notifying players that their idea has been suggested, and if it is implemented or not.
4. My timezone is pretty much AU timezone, and I see a lack of mods online during my timezone. I want to be able to help players during my timezone, because they might encounter a hacker and have no mods to report to.

Have you ever used a hacked client before? - Yes, on my private server. I had some hacked 1v1s with @/_ExtrasPvP, and I learnt a lot about the hack clients. I learnt about B-Hop, AutoArmor, AutoPot, and a lot more.
Have you ever been punished (banned, kicked, muted, etc) legitimately on a public Minecraft server? If so, why? - Only one legitimate ban so far, and that's on Brawl. I was kicked for 10 min for "abusing the /report", which is what I did. I typed in "/report <hacker name> force f*cking field". Very immature of me, and I've learnt from that, and I've never done that since

What do you consider your greatest strength? -
My greatest strength is my ability to remain calm in almost any situation. When HG first came over to Brawl and there was no anticheat, I had to deal with a lot of hackers. No matter the situation, I would always try to run and turn on my recorder. Even in recent times, with the anticheat in place, I still meet hackers in game. I would always run and turn on my recorder, or turn it on immediately and try to survive until I have enough evidence of the suspect hacking. I rarely lose my cool. Unfair bans, deaths, or anything that may make one lose his temper will not faze me.
What do you consider your greatest weakness? -
My greatest weakness may be my unwillingness to sacrifice a game for a new player. Although I do tend to spend time to explain to a player the basics of HG, I don't think it is enough. If I'm in a fight, I would focus on the fight instead, and tend to ignore players who are asking me questions. However, I've tried to improve on this aspect, and hopefully I will be able to help more players
Which Brawl server(s) are you most active on? - HG, Raid, KB

How many Brawl staff applications have you made in the past? - 3(?)
What is the date of the last application you submitted? - No idea, I can't see the denied section
Do you have TeamSpeak? - Yes

Anything else you would like to state? - Nothing much, besides wishing everyone who reads this a good day

 

I've tried to keep my application as concise as possible, thanks for the support tho!

 

Yes

 

Thanks @SoCool21 and @TheZombieKat

If commitment is defined as amount of time invested into those teams, naturally it would drop by a bit, but I am pretty good at managing responsibilities, so I don't think there would be too much of a change. Besides, I can render a video while helping people on TS, or search for songs on my way home from school. If commitment is defined as passion, it wouldn't change

 

Thanks!

 

Thanks!
