    Brawl Junior Moderator Application

    Read over this thread: http://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? - RyGuy
    Is your Minecraft account secured and migrated? - Yes, my account is completely secured and migrated.

    How old are you? - I am 17 years old.
    What time zone are you in? - I live in the Eastern Standard Timezone.
    Are you multilingual? Can you speak multiple languages? - I am partially multilingual. Like many other players, I take a language class in school, so I can speak some Spanish. I am also completely fluent in English

    What is your experience and knowledge of Brawl? - I first joined Brawl when its name was "Multiplayer Servers" way back in 2013. I feel like I have seen almost all Brawl has to offer, as I have played every game mode that has been released, and I have learned the intricacies of how all of Brawl works, which makes me feel like I have very good knowledge of Brawl and it's servers.
    What is your experience with moderating servers, if any? - I have significant experience moderating on Brawl itself. From September of 2016 to September of 2017, I worked my way up from Party Junior Moderator to Global Moderator, priding myself on being able to handle any problem on all servers. From X-Ray checks on Raid to helping players on Build to watching a hacker on WarZ, I prided myself on being able to help whenever I could, and I would love the opportunity to help out once more.
    Why do you want to become a moderator on Brawl? - I want to become a moderator on Brawl because I would like to help, wherever I could. Brawl has given me so much over the past 7 years, and I would love to once again have the opportunity to provide a good environment for its players.
    In server-specific terms, I am very knowledgeable on everything related to Party. I worked hard to ensure a good environment for everybody, and I especially worked hard on numerous updates and changes in Party. I would like to help in the same retrospect I did before in Party: making a fantastic environment for the community to play.
    Have you ever used a hacked client before? - I have used a hacked client before, but never on any public server. I am working on making heuristics for certain hacks, and in order to do that, I needed to trace packet information that came from these clients. While I have used them on my private localhost server, I have not and will never utilize them on a public server. I feel like this gives me an even better and more comprehensive understanding of hacked clients and how they worked, which will most definitely prove beneficial to moderation.
    Have you ever been punished (banned, kicked, muted, etc) legitimately on a public Minecraft server? If so, why? - When I resigned in 2017, I made the ill-advised decision to give my account to my friend, Sn4x5. He chose to hack on numerous accounts, and after he got banned on 3 accounts, my account was also permanently banned due to his hacking. I took my account back immediately, waited the full 6 months to appeal my perm ban, and I have not been punished at all since then.

    What do you consider your greatest strength? - I believe my greatest strength is my willingness to help. I always try to create a positive environment for everybody around me, and I will do whatever I can to ensure that for the players of Brawl.
    What do you consider your greatest weakness? - I believe I have two weaknesses. One weakness is that I have only been active for a little over a month upon returning. I do not believe this will be a problem, as Party has not been changed frequently, so I believe I will be able to hit the ground running, while simultaneously learning and staying updated with Brawl's newer updated. My main weakness within my personality I believe is my humor. I do occasionally attempt to make humorous light in a serious situation, and this is something I will be sure to tone down if I become a staff member.
    Which Brawl server(s) are you most active on? - I am most active on Party, however, I will also play CTF and WarZ.

    How many Brawl staff applications have you made in the past? - I have submitted 7 staff application in the past.
    What is the date of the last application you submitted? - The last staff application I submitted was on August 23, 2016.
    Do you have Discord? - I do! My Discord is RyGuy#0198

    Anything else you would like to state? -
    I would like to address my resignation, especially in regards of how ill-tempered I became afterwords. When I resigned, I was a 14-year-old who had completely lost control of his emotions. In my mind, I believed that everything continuously was not going my mind, and I decided to take out that frustration on the staff team and the community. This was a decision I made years ago, and I have matured past that. In no way do my actions then reflect on my reliefs of Brawl today.

    Please insert a Yes / No poll below.

    +1. There aren't many more experienced Party players than you, and you were a great staff member in the past. You would be very useful to have back on the staff team.

    Hey @RyGuy I am glad to see that you made a staff application. You are very experienced and have done a lot of work for Brawl in the past. I have seen you in-game and you have shown that you want to come back. Discord +1, maturity +1, application -1,

    On the question "Why do you want to become a moderator on Brawl?" You answered,
    "I want to become a moderator on Brawl because I would like to help, wherever I could. Brawl has given me so much over the past 7 years, and I would love to once again have the opportunity to provide a good environment for its players. In server-specific terms, I am very knowledgeable on everything related to Party. I worked hard to ensure a good environment for everybody, and I especially worked hard on numerous updates and changes in Party. I would like to help in the same retrospect I did before in Party: making a fantastic environment for the community to play."​
    I would like you to elaborate even more here because you never really explain in what way. This makes it hard for everyone who has not seen you previous work to have an opinion. In what way did you make a "fantastic environment"?

    Thanks for reading!
    - Warrey

    Thank you for the feedback Warrey!
    When I first began to moderate Party, I encountered a community that was fairly was unnecessarily toxic and seemed to me almost dejected due to a lack of attention given to the gamemode. I was able to work to provide updates for that community, and I made it my goal to make it a positive environment whenever I was online. Due to the fact Party had a limited amount of moderators, and had a playerbase that consistently hovered at anywhere from 50-100 players, I found myself consistently moderating both chat and rule breakers, ensuring that players faced absolutely no difficulties in playing Party.
    Outside of creating a positive environment for players, I had worked on numerous updates for Party. I was able to restore a much-missed gamemode, Wool Mix Up, and have map updates implemented on Party. I was consistently watching and testing bug reports and forwarded them along to a Developer.
    I also interacted with the community on the forums in very significant ways. I implemented their ideas into the current gamemode, took inventories of all ideas and map creations, and constantly listened to their feedback. These threads are the most significant to that, in my mind
    "Listening to the Community:" https://www.brawl.com/threads/61242/
    "Brainstorming: Player Retention:" https://www.brawl.com/threads/64464/
    "Brainstorming: Gamemodes:" https://www.brawl.com/threads/65356/
    "Brainstorming: Achievements:" https://www.brawl.com/threads/64766/
    And this thread is the changelog for the most important update I worked to get implemented: https://www.brawl.com/threads/63275/
    In all, I feel like I was able to create a fantastic environment for Party due to implementing numerous updates and cleaning up a lot of toxicity that was found in the gamemode, and I would love the opportunity to do that again.

    Thanks for giving this information. Usually when people apply for staff they are stuck at one game-mode and have never touched the rest.

    However you are in perfect shape for staff because you have so much knowledge of Brawl as a whole and therefore you could help me and other staff to improve the server.

    Definitely a +1, good luck man and hope you continue from where you left.
