x Trial xgen42 - WarZ

McBrawl Moderator Application:

Are you active and helpful on our servers, forums, and Teamspeak? - Yes, extremely active in-game and highly active on the forums. However, I could be on Teamspeak a little more than I currently am. I am and will continue to work on this. I have had multiple members of the community comment on my high activity, including Myortvye, so I must be doing something right.

Approximately, how many rule breaker reports have you submitted? - At the time of posting this I have 79 videos on my YouTube channel. Around 60 of them are reports for McBrawl.


How old are you? - I am 16 years old.
What time zone are you in? - GMT, I live in the UK.
What is your experience and knowledge of Minecraft? - Well, I bought Minecraft back in February, 2011. I first played on a family computer which was extremely laggy. Eventually, one Christmas, Santa(hue) was very kind and he bought me a laptop. I played on this for around 2 years and it is where I found McBrawl. At first I was playing Mc-WarZ for around 9 months. More recently I've been on Mc-War and now, fpsHG. I also have a "gaming" PC now and I'm able to record with Fraps to catch all them lovely rule breakers. c;
What is your experience with moderating servers? - I don't have a huge experience with moderating servers. However, I did have admin on a WarZ "practice" server and did a good job of catching rule breakers there.

What will you provide to the community if you are provided moderator status? - As an fpsHG moderator, I hope to provide a helpful, friendly atmosphere on the servers, answering questions relatively quickly and to the best of my ability. I like to think players won't be afraid to talk to me and ask me questions.


Have you ever used a hacked client before? - Yes. Although I haven't used one for a long time and have deleted them from my computer.

Have you ever been banned on a Minecraft server? If so, why? - Yes. When I was younger I would use hacked clients on Minecraft quite a lot... From kill aura on PvP servers to xray in the mines on Prison servers. I think I am still currently banned on a fairly popular soup pvp server from around a year ago. (If the server is still up.) I have even been banned from McBrawl. The first time was for using a hacked client, (it was actually an accident, I forgot to remove it before I joined the server.) Then, I was banned twice for macro's. However, I did not use them and after appealing both seperate occasions, I was unbanned.


How active do you consider yourself in-game? - I consider myself extremely active in-game. I fell in love with fpsHG like Lord_Roke did with Survival. In the first day I reached 100 kills, currently I am at 750. I am playing Minecraft for around 6 hours a day, maybe more if I wake up earlier.

How active do you consider yourself on TS3? - I could be a little more active on Teamspeak, I just never feel like I fit in with a British accent. Since fpsHG was released though, I have been more active as I want to talk to the other players and mods that I team up with in-game. Even if there is nobody online that I would speak to, I will just chill in the lobby or a private channel. That way, any players can still message me for help.

How active do you consider yourself on the forums? - I believe I am highly active on the forums, mainly in the shoutbox. I have around 420 posts and this may seem like not many to some hardcore forum members, but I think it is enough and of course I will continue to be active and helpful. At night when I'm not on my computer, I usually just chill on my phone, mainly in the shoutbox. During this time, I'm not posting as much, but I still reply to PM's and check the more important areas of the forums.
What do you consider your greatest strength? - Multi-tasking. I am very good at keeping an eye on chat even when in combat. This means that I can help players on the server and reply to others even when I am running around in-game.

What do you consider your greatest weakness? - My patience... I sometimes get annoyed by people really easily. However, since I stopped playing WarZ, I have not raged once over anything. If I do feel like I am getting stressed over an individual, I will calmly take the required steps to calmly deal with the situation.

How would you handle someone making a minor transgression for the first time? - At first I would ask them to stop doing whatever it is and make it clear that they are being warned.

How would you handle the same person doing it again a second time? - If they clearly ignore my warning, I would kick them from the server, hoping that when they rejoin they would not repeat their actions.

How would you handle that person doing it again for the third time? - If the player continues to break the rules even after a kick, I would temporarily ban them from the server for an hour.


What is your reaction if someone publicly proves you wrong on the forums? - I would apologise to the person, thank them for showing me what I did wrong so that I may improve, and make sure I do not make the mistake again.
What would you do when someone breaks a rule on the forums? - I would PM the member, notifying them of what they did and ask them to edit their post to be more appropriate and to make sure they don't do it again. If it is a more important rule broken, I would report it to a higher member of staff/use the report button.
When would you lock a thread? - If any of the following occured:
- Grave-Dig
- Flame-War
- Duplicate/Spam thread
- A large part of the thread is off-topic
- Topic has been answered
- Creator of the thread requested it to be locked


Describe yourself in 3 words: Helpful, Kind, Dedicated.
Anything else we should know about you? - This is where some people fill a paragraph or two about their life. However, if anyone wants to know any more about me, just PM me. Within reason, I'll tell you. c:
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, I would politely message the player to come back into the map. If he doesn't come back in, I would tell him once more in public chat. If I got no response from him again, I would kick him from the server and keep an eye on him in future matches.
Do you generally know how all the plugins and commands work? - Yes, I believe I do.
Do you realize that if you are disrespectful or abuse your power, your power will be taken away? - Yes, I fully understand this.

To any enemies I had on WarZ or to anybody that I may have offended in the past: Please do not just automatically vote No because you saw I applied. Take the time to read it and judge me fairly based on my more recent self. Thank you.

 

I've switched my application to WarZ.
Still, thanks to everyone who voted Yes when it was for FpsHG. If your vote has changed now that it's for WarZ please post on my profile or PM me your reasons, cheers.
