Accepted Mod Application

McBrawl Moderator Application:


Are you active and helpful on our servers, forums, and Teamspeak?- Yes, I'm helpfull on the 3 categories. People mostly see me on TeamSpeak, I’m sure most of you guys see me on TeamSpeak. I'm an active member In Game, as again, most of you guys see me everyday on the server . With having 397 messages on the forums, I thought I could make an application for War. Yes, I know there are plenty of mods for War, but some of them I don’t see them that much when we need them.


Approximately, how many rule breaker reports have you submitted?– I’ve got about 15-20 reports I think. I’m planning to report more and more people, that are doing bad things, more likely hacking, exploiting, etc. If I couldn’t be able to do things in a short amount of time, then I’m trying to get a moderator to the specific server.


How old are you?- 15


What time zone are you in?- UTC+1, Living in Belgium: Europe


What is your experience and knowledge of Minecraft?- Well, I have been playing MineCraft since 4 November 2012: Here's the proof of it. Meanwhile I have been discovering things about the Multiplayer servers. I saw Mc-Brawl in top ten list and I thought it would be a good idea to write down the ip of the server and copy down on the screen. This server has been one of my most played servers ever. Now I know how to react when something goes bad in MineCraft.

What is your experience with moderating servers? I'm Admin on a Prison Server called: NovaPrison, it was called 'BehindBars' before : Here's the proof =>

After about 24 secondsyou'll see that I typed this ' . ', with having 4-5 more admins to keep the activity up in there. I haven’t been staff on any other server. I think I could give it a try on this one.

What will you provide to the community if you are provided moderator status?- Well, at this moment I have already been trying to keep the peace between people, sometimes they don't think I'm acting serious. Now, if I got Mod, People would take me serious (I hope so.) I'm trying to keep the joy in the community. I’m trying to keep the chat so clear as possible, so people will understand not to curse in the chat, or have a flame war.


Have you ever used a hacked client before?- No, and never going to. As most people say. Where is this 'Hacking' going to lead to then?


Have you ever been banned on a Minecraft server? If so, why?- I have been banned on different servers, plus this one sadly enough.

First one was when I was Advertising on the ShotBow Network, to let people join my friends his server. I'm not going to talk abou t all my bans but I think the most important one is: Have I been banned on this server? Yes. Once, I got banned for "using KillAura". I got accused by an Admin. As again, Sorry about the thing if you thought I was hacking.


How active do you consider yourself in-game?- Well, people see me evry day on the Mc-War servers so I'd say I'm very active for about 3-5 hours a day. Ask people for me, most of them will know me. I’m playing mostly with friends to keep the contact between us very good. I’m learning more and more things about the strange things in the War servers. Giving people advice about certain things, helping with any problems, that is what I should do as a Moderator. As my application says, for War, I’m most active on that server. WarZ and MinecraftParty go second for me. Cause Mc-War has a ranking system and everyone is trying to get to the highest level that they can achieve. But WarZ and Party don’t have these things.


How active do you consider yourself on TS3?- Well, almost evryday on TeamSpeak. You can see me mostly in a Channel called : 'Tim's Channel' @YxTimxY Even ask mods or other people, I'm very active. As the same as my ingame activity. 3-5 hours a day. Sometimes when there are “Annoying” players on TeamSpeak, I’m mostly getting a Super-Mod or a Mod to the room, and let them talk to the person. Cause the person didn’t want to listen to me for (Some reasons people don’t want to listen to me.) 1. I’m not higher then the person him/Her self. This is saying that I’m not a higher rank then the person, Like Moderator, or helper, or even what else there is. 2. People don’t want to listen to me cause my username isn’t “Serious”. I know ‘buddycrack’ isn’t the perfect name to use, but yeah. I chose it and I’m proud of it.


How active do you consider yourself on the forums?- Well, as I said in the beginning. I have around 397 posts, and the minimum of posts to apply is 300. And for beeing here not a long period. I joined the forums on Febuary 8th 2014. So I say I'm pretty active to on the forums. Always saying ‘Hello’ in the Forums chat, when ever a new member registered, saying ‘Welcome’ to the person. Quoting peoples their message, if they did something good/wrong/unnecessary/etc.


What do you consider your greatest strength?- My greatest strength?1. That would be my sport life. I'm an active guy that likes going to sport. Currently I'm following Karate-class, and school sport. 2. And my patience of course is one of my strengths to. I’m not a guy that is going to rage to the person in game or in TeamSpeak. I hold it so quiet as possible, so people won’t think I’m one of those weird-ish people.


What do you consider your greatest weakness?-1. To answer evryone's question. I know, Moderators need to help the members to get their questions answered, but they don't have all the time to. 2. School. Well, some people already now I don’t like school, but we all have to go to school until we are 18 years old. Well, most people do. And I don’t have the best result as most people do, and I’m not the guy that is going to study allot.


How would you handle someone making a minor transgression for the first time?- I would tell the person that what he/she did, was wrong. Going to ask him/her to not do the thing again.

How would you handle the same person doing it again a second time?- I would give an even warning to inform the person what he/she did wrong.

How would you handle that person doing it again for the third time?- They say this mostly from where I live: 'Third time, is the last time!' Then the player should be warned enough to accept his/her punishment. That will lead to an instant kick.


What is your reaction if someone publicly proves you wrong on the forums?- I'd accept it. Later, I would think about the thing the person said. After the approving of the player his/her reaction, I'd give a 'Thank you.'

What would you do when someone breaks a rule on the forums?- Inform the User by Private Message about his/her mistake. If the user doesn't or didn't want to listen about the thing he/she did wrong, higher staff would come in.

When would you lock a thread?-

• Flame War.
• Requested lock by author.
• Pointless thread.
• Off-Topic thread.
• A duplicated thread.

Describe yourself in 3 words: Kind, Helpfull and Mature.

Anything else we should know about you?- As I said before, I live in Belgium. Living a live like nobody else does. My grammatiqs in English could be not good. Again, (Belgium). My summer vacation just started, so don't worry about my activity on the 3 main topics. (Ts,InGame,Forums.)

Situation: A player is out of the map on MC-WAR. What are the steps that you would take to ensure that this player and situation is properly dealt with?-

First step: I'd ask the player to get back in the map, if not they'll get their first warning.

Second step: After the player has been warned, and I'd see him again their would be no other chance to kick the player out the current game.

Third step: If I see the guy actually going out of map constantly I’d alert a higher staff member.

Do you generally know how all the plugins and commands work?- Yes, I do. I'll ask other mods for more information if I don't understand something about a command or plugin.

Do you realize that if you are disrespectful or abuse your power, your power will be taken away?- Yes. Abusing the Moderator "powers" isn't good. This will then lead to an instant Demote.


Yes I know my application is a bit to the short side. But this one is atleast one that I've worked on more then the others.
