Accepted cuddlemonster09 - PVP

McBrawl Moderator Application:

Are you active and helpful on our servers, forums, and Teamspeak? - Yes, I believe that I'm active on all three. I am completely aware of the fact that I do not have a sufficient amount of forum posts however, I am active everyday in the PVP section. As well as reading new posts and answering when I am able to do so.

Approximately, how many rule breaker reports have you submitted? - I have submitted about 4 or 5 rule breaker reports. I would typically tell a moderator and ask for help when things needed to be resolved immediately.

How old are you? - I am 18 years old.
What time zone are you in? - Eastern Standard Time (EST)
What is your experience and knowledge of Minecraft? - I started playing Minecraft in December, 2013 and absolutely loved it. I played single player for a while, enjoying the peaceful building side of it and the adventure. I began to seek for something alittle different. I tried many servers and none of them caught my interest. Then I found this server. I started off by playing Minecraft party, still do, but realized that what I was truly looking for hasn't been found. I then found the PvP survival server. Even while starting out, there was always one thing that I truly loved, helping people out when ever I got the chance. Even till this day I love being able to build, PVP, travel and connect with others.

What is your experience with moderating servers? - I have never moderated a server. While playing on this server I help as much as I can and do try to report and remind others of the rules when players spam, abuse a glitch and all sorts when no moderator is present. I have also learned a lot from the moderators by socializing with them.

What will you provide to the community if you are provided moderator status? - I will welcome newcomers and help them out whenever I can. I will be understanding when a player needs help. I will moderate and ensure that the PVP community understands the rules when broken. I will try and make sure that the community is a safe place from, spammers, insulter's, and hackers if given this opportunity.

Have you ever used a hacked client before? - I have never used a hack client before. It is an unfair advantage and is not the right way to play a game.

Have you ever been banned on a Minecraft server? If so, why? - I have never been banned in any Minecraft server. That is one thing I never plan, or want to happen.

How active do you consider yourself in-game? - In game I play actively everyday. At the very least, I would play about 3 hours. I keep my eye on chat at all times to make sure I don't miss any questions and to make sure I know what is going on at all times.

How active do you consider yourself on TS3? - About 90% of the time that I am playing, I am on teamspeak.

How active do you consider yourself on the forums? - As stated in the first question, I do not have a great amount of posts. But I read posts daily and respond when I have something new to say that hasn't been stated. I love welcoming newcomers and I am very active in the PVP section of forums.

What do you consider your greatest strength? - I am helpful. I would say that I am very understanding when it comes to other players needing help. When it seems that a player isn't being understood or is frustrated I try to always sort it out with them.

What do you consider your greatest weakness? - I would say my greatest weakness is that I am a little to soft at times. In being so friendly and understanding I tend to want to give someone another chance even when they shouldn't have one, But gradually depending on the severity of the situation I am learning when to become strict in a sense, and will be able to kick or ban someone. It will be controllable but I would have the small moments of feeling a small sense of guilt.

How would you handle someone making a minor transgression for the first time? - Depending on the offense, I would kindly tell them in public chat or in private chat to not do whatever it is that they are doing. Then, remind them of the server rules and explain that consequences will occur if the offense continues.

How would you handle the same person doing it again a second time - If the player seems to not care and continue on I would kick them. When they return I will explain why I did. (If it is a hacker I will report them)

How would you handle that person doing it again for the third time? - If the person still does not understand after the explanations given and continues to spam, abuse a glitch or insult, I would temp ban them for at least an hour depending on severity it would be longer.

What is your reaction if someone publicly proves you wrong on the forums? - I would admit I was wrong, apologize, and thank them for correcting my mistake.

What would you do when someone breaks a rule on the forums? - I would explain the forum rules to them, than lock the thread.

When would you lock a thread? - I would let people know why I locked the thread and also let them know that they can private message me if they think it should be unlocked. A thread should be locked when either of these happen:

- Flame war breaks out

- Excessive amounts of spam

- Gone off-topic

- Question has been resolved

- A lock request

- A thread that has been grave dug

Anything going against forum rules should be locked.

Describe yourself in 3 words: Friendly, Helpful, Trustworthy

Anything else we should know about you? - No, there really isn't anything else that comes to mind at the moment.

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? - Honestly, I rarely ever play MC-WAR but according to this scenario I would message the player to come back inside the map and explain the server rules to them, if the player ignores or continues to do so I would kick them.

Do you generally know how all the plugins and commands work? - Yes, I do generally know how all the plugins and commands work.

Do you realize that if you are disrespectful or abuse your power, your power will be taken away? - Yes, I understand completely. Anyone that abuses such an important power should be demoted.
