Accepted Kayrex's JMOD Application!

Brawl Junior Moderator Application
(I have received permission to re-use my old application.)​

Read over this thread: https://www.brawl.com/threads/14752/
If you do not meet the requirements (active, helpful, must have Discord, etc) do not apply yet; it will be an auto deny.

What is your in-game name? - My current in-game name is Kayrex. For a list to my previous IGN's, click here.

Is your Minecraft account secured and migrated? - Yes. All my accounts are both secured and migrated. No one but me has the access to this account, nor any of my alts.

How old are you? - I am currently at the age of 13.

What time zone are you in? - I am in the GMT +1 timezone.

Are you multilingual? Can you speak multiple languages? - Yes. My native language is Norwegian, however, I'd consider myself as nearly fluent in both writing and speaking English aswell. I also know how to speak basic German.

What is your experience and knowledge of Brawl? -
My first join here was back in January 2014. However, I wasn't really into Minecraft at this point of time, so I was never really online or actively playing. Minecraft caught my interest back in the start of 2015 I believe, when I discovered McPvP and CTF. However, McPvP got shut-down not so long after I first joined, and most of my favorite gamemodes got transferred over here. I did not decide to quit or leave because of this, and I started to play a lot more actively here instead. Sure, I've had a few small, and some big breaks during my time here, but I have managed to not leave or quit completely, and always come back instead.
As for my experience and knowledge of Brawl: I am familiar and I have a lot of experience when it comes down to the basics of nearly each and every gamemode, especially KitBrawl and CTF as those gamemodes are the ones which I play the most. I'm familiar with the rules that are needed to be followed and respected by everyone on Kit, CTF and Brawl in general, and as time goes on I am sure that I will learn even more about Brawl and how stuff works around here.

What is your experience with moderating servers, if any? - I have a lot of experience moderating smaller servers, not with a bigger playerbase than around 30 - 50 players online every day though. Even If I wouldn't consider it as real experience, it taught me the basics and gave me the basic knowledge needed for staffing. I'm familiar with the regular commands, cheats, plugins, etc. a staff member should be capable of knowing. I have never held a higher rank than SMOD, as you would call it here, but as stated, I have the basic knowledge and experience any staff member should have.
Most of the servers I used to moderate are now shut down, although a few of them are still up and running.

I just recently got a trial-phase as a gymnastic trainer / coach which i'd say also gives me more of the moderating type of experience. (Constantly having to make sure that people do what they're supposed to be doing, etc.)

I‘m also currently learning the different hack clients and types so that it will be easier for me to spot a hacker. I have been downloading a few and used them on surivival servers for testing.

Why you want to become a moderator on Brawl? - I've really fell for, and I really care for KitBrawl and Brawl as a whole, and I want to do anything in my power as a staff member to bring new updates to Kit, help improving the gamemode, spicing up the game a bit in general and just give others a better playing-experience while they're online. I can ofcourse do this well without the rank, but I believe that I will be able to do way better with it. With that said, I also think that KitBrawl needs alot more EU mods, or mods in general as there is no mods currently besides for GetShadowRealmed and Moist. I believe 2 staff members moderating an entire gamemode can be not only hard, but very stressing aswell, and I know that from experience. Due the low staff-count on Kit, I have also noticed that it might be the server with the most hackers and rule-breakers online every day, and I'd like to help and put a stop to this completely, as most hackers and / or rulebreakers are able to roam around freely for atleast 10 - 25 minutes without getting banned or punished.

Another reason is that I want to increase the insanely small playerbase Kit currently has by bringing new ideas and suggestions to life. As a regular community member I am not able to do anything with this except for consistently suggesting stuff which probably will never be implemented. (Because of the current Kit staff members having to deal with other stuff.) -KitBrawl really is dying and I want to do anything in my power as a staff member to prevent it from doing so.

Have you ever used a hacked client before? - Yes, I have. I've used hacks a few times on survival servers, just to test them out. I would now say that I know how to spot most hackers.

Have you ever been punished (banned, kicked, muted, etc) legitimately on a public Minecraft server? If so, why? - Yes, but not on any other server than Brawl, I'm pretty sure. I have been false-banned several times apparently for hacking, and I've also been muted twice I believe, for death threats.
I have been banned once, because I requested it for some reason which I cannot remember.
I have also been kicked once for 2v1'ing on KitBrawl.
Other than this I have not recieved any type of punishment on any server as far as I can remember.

(Punishment record: click here.)

What do you consider your greatest strength? - I would say that my greatest strength is my empathy, sensitivity and creativity. I feel like I am able to sense and tell how others feel, in a way.
I am very caring for others, and I don't like to see people struggle and / or just feel bad.
I have also stated creativity because i'd say I am ''thinking outside the box'' and doing things a slightly different way than many others would do it.

What do you consider your greatest weakness? - I am very emotional, I can be impatient and I can get easily heated or mad.
Insults or alike can get on me very fast. I tend to overreact, and / or get very mad at the person if s/he tell me things i don't want to talk / hear about, and I tend to get very sad afterwards, and blame myself. This can also make me insecure when preforming actions, as I'm afraid to fail on certain things, and make others think I'm like, bad at my job or something alike. I want to work on this as well though, by trying to not listen to what others tell me and instead listen more to myself and do what I think is best.

Which Brawl server(s) are you most active on? -
CTF and KitBrawl.
Even though I have way more playtime and experience with CTF than I have with KitBrawl, I'm applying for Kit because it's the gamemode that I feel like needs the most help and improvements and the gamemode where I think I can actually be beneficial.

How many Brawl staff applications have you made in the past? - I have applied 4 times before, which makes this my 5th application.

What is the date of the last application you submitted? - 13/10/2018.

Do you have Discord? - Yes, I do: agile#9118

Anything else you would like to state? - What I have been trying to work and improve on since my last application is maturity. I’d say that it has been going better for me ever since I decided that I wanted to start working on it, and I think I am on my way to become more mature as a person. Aswell as this, I have been trying to contribute more to Kit by building maps, creating ideas, etc. and keeping my punishment history clean, which I have.

Thank you for taking your time to read through my staff application.

Thank you so much, Mayo!

 

Thanks Tom! I won’t.

 

Thank you so much, Proudy!❤️

 

I do not remember why I made those threats. I was most likely just joking about it as I was very immature back then.
People change over time, and I myself decided that I wanted to become more mature, because at some point I could clearly see that being immature is nothing but annoying and sometimes even harming towards others. I know I've turned into a more mature person since then, and I couldn't even imagine me insulting, threatning or just being rude in general towards other players.
