    Brawl Junior Moderator Application

    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.

    What is your in-game name? - xxMineSheepxx
    Is your Minecraft account secured and migrated? - Yes

    How old are you? - 14
    What time zone are you in? - GMT+8 or EST+11
    Are you multilingual? Can you speak multiple languages? - Yes, I can speak 2 dialects and 2 languages. The dialects are Cantonese and Hokkien but that's irrelevant to this server. I can also speak Mandarin and English fluently, although I make many grammatical errors in English (it's okay I have grammarly and thesaurus for official stuff).

    What is your experience and knowledge of Brawl? - Well, I have been in MCPVP since HG's prime time. I was not very active until I found out about MCBuild and Maze in 2014. I have been active since, and I have to admit, it was not very healthy until I learnt to manage my time better. When MCPVP died and merged with Brawl, I got into CTF and soon joined the CTF team scene although I have never played many matches due to my timezone. I have been active ever since I soon applied for wiki team, then builder, gaining more knowledge on what Brawl has been working on and has also boosted my motivation and activity. I have been on MCPVP/Brawl for basically a third of my life so I'd consider my knowledge and experience of Brawl to be strong.
    What is your experience with moderating servers, if any? - I never had any experience with moderating servers. I have only ever gotten into MCPVP and Brawl and never applied due to my age. However, as semi-staff I have never acted immature, abused or not follow protocol so I am able to be trusted. Furthermore, seeing how staff members react to situations, I am also able to make the correct judgements based upon that. I am able to detect hackers (only blatant, not gc's), know when to punish a rule breaker, and I know my limits. So although I was never a moderator myself, I am still able to perform well as one. After all, everyone has to start somewhere.
    Why do you want to become a moderator on Brawl? - I have always considered being a moderator on Brawl just for the sake of it, and to help Brawl's growth. I never found myself applying though, because back then I was afraid of releasing my age (12), not because it may get me denied, but I was afraid of people viewing me differently because of it. But it didn't matter anyway because back then there were still many build mods and I wasn't necessarily needed. However, now there is a huge decline in both members and staff. I feel there is more demand for staff and more need for change to happen to both encourage new players and retain the current community, although it is an ageing one. Whenever I'm on there's below 100 people online, and when I pull up the staff list, I'm usually the only one online. Although there is not as much of a need for a mod when it's not the prime time, there are still blatant cheaters and flaming in chat, which is quite frustrating because no one is able to deal with that. I try to record at times but it is sometimes hard to relocate the hacker.

    Following Gala's resignation, I realized that even if Nick was promoted to JMOD, there will still only be 1 active staff member for Build, and even EU timezones don't cover everything. Build has also lost someone who pushed for constant updates, and I would like to help update Build and retain its playerbase. Furthermore, as I have mentioned before, no staff members are online whenever I am, so it'd be nice if I was also able to help moderate other servers as well. MCPVP/Brawl is my childhood, it's morbid to just watch it fall apart.
    Have you ever used a hacked client before? - Yes, I have used X-ray because my brother said it would be helpful in HG. But back then but I got bored of HG and literally only used it on Build to help me see the redstone behind the blocks so I know what exactly went wrong in my contraption without stripping everything apart. I removed it when I got out of redstone (which was basically a week after) not only because it was not useful to me anymore, but it is also a blacklisted mod and I felt guilty about it.
    Have you ever been punished (banned, kicked, muted, etc) legitimately on a public Minecraft server? If so, why? - Yes, I have been banned and muted on Brawl pre ban wipe. I was banned at around the first week I came to Brawl. I was very young at the time and to be honest, I don't really remember why other than lagging making it look like hacking. I was soon unbanned though. I was also banned 1 or 2 years ago since I asked to be banned, as I had trouble managing my time and was procrastinating a lot. I'm a lot better at managing my time now and likely will not have the same problem again. I was muted for spam, it wasn't really spam and when warned, it was from a friend and in a serious and at the same time non serious kind of way, which I interpreted wrong. I wrote "/a /a /a /a /a" before what I was going to say, and the one who muted me said "*puts on serious face* lol stop the spam" or something along the lines of that. I should've taken the warning seriously, and even though it still doesn't seem like spam to me, it won't happen again.

    What do you consider your greatest strength? - It's difficult to pinpoint my own strength as I am never satisfied with myself, but most likely the fact that I'm nice. I am kind and compassionate to others, even to those that are toxic and rude.
    What do you consider your greatest weakness? - I'm sensitive to judgement and how I am seen as a person. It restricts a lot of what I want to do both IRL and in game. However, people saying I'm trash at building or just trashtalks me in general will not result in me flaming, rather either accepting it or feeling sad for a while.
    Which Brawl server(s) are you most active on? - I am most active on Build. I wasn't on CTF for a long time but am starting to be more active on both CTF and Kit since I just recently got a working mouse.

    How many Brawl staff applications have you made in the past? - I haven't made any JMOD applications in the past other than builder and wiki team applications.
    What is the date of the last application you submitted? - n/a
    Do you have TeamSpeak? Yes.

    Anything else you would like to state? - I know I am definitely not the most active person, but I'd like to make a difference whenever I can with the time I have. My activity will definitely fluctuate, especially during exam seasons, but there are many holidays and a lot of time where I can spend a long while on Brawl.

    If your application is accepted, you will move on to an interview on TeamSpeak.

    Please insert a Yes / No poll below.

    I've spoken to you a good bit and you seem very dedicated to your server and its community. The offenses you listed (previous bans, warnings, etc) are all pretty far in the past and it seems you've learned from them more than anything. +1
