    Read over this thread: https://www.brawl.com/threads/14752/
    If you do not meet the requirements (active, helpful, must have TeamSpeak, etc) do not apply yet; it will be an auto deny.
    Note: I wanted to make note I've read over this thread. Wanted to make that clear to everyone.

    What is your in-game name? - NateTheDerp (Global/Lifetime VIP)
    I know you aren't asking for this but I have changed my name many times in the past
    [​IMG]

    Is your Minecraft account secured and migrated? - Yes.

    How old are you? - I am 12 years old, born August of 2004
    What time zone are you in? - Eastern Standard Time (GMT-4)
    Are you multilingual? Can you speak multiple languages? - My native language is English, but I did learn a small amount of Latin, German, French, and Spanish in school.
    Note: This section was edited. It said I was multilingual, but I am not.

    What is your experience and knowledge of Brawl? - I have a lot of experience with Brawl. I joined in 2014 in-game, and 2015 on the forums. I have also been on a friend's account and mine, lets get into the details!

    Friend's Account:
    My friend (I don't want to name) let me use his account for a while because I didn't have one. I went on servers like Mineplex, Hypixel, and Brawl. I didn't stick to brawl on his account, this happened later. I usually played Minecraft Party when I was on brawl. I remember watching YouTubers play it, so I did myself. Later it was my birthday, and I finally got my own Minecraft account.

    My Account:
    When I turned 10 years old (I was pretty young) I got my own Minecraft account. After asking my parents for one they finally got me one for my birthday. My brother and I were looking for Creative servers one day and he found MCBrawl. I remembered this server so I went on. Soon I was applying for AdvBuilder on brawl and got accepted. After I got WE1 on creative my friend Trevorsleeping showed me to MC-War. I played that too but mostly focused on creative. Once I got WEPro McPvP was being owned by Brawl. I was conserned but quickly learned to love MC-Build. I kept building with my friends and helping the community to this day. I am level 54 on MC-War, and have been making maps on Build since May 2015.

    What is your experience with moderating servers, if any? - Sadly, I've never moderated a real Minecraft Server before. I have been Admin/Moderator on many of my friend's servers however making me know basic commands like /clearchat (/prune) /kick /mute /ban /unmute and /unban.
    Why do you want to become a moderator on Brawl? - I want to become moderator on brawl because I think MC-Build needs it. Most of the time there aren't moderators on and there is a massive flame war or innappropriate chat going on in GLOBAL. I can't tell them to stop because that would be considered mini-modding. I do try to report as many as I can but you can only send a report every 30 seconds. This limits me to the ammount of reports I can send.

    I also wanted to say aGuyInAsuite is the only mod that I see on MC-Build. Thats one person moderating three servers, impossible. Most of the time on build there is one main server with 30+ people on. That still could be too much for one JMOD to handle. Another thing is that Build can crash a lot, making the main server even bigger.

    Have you ever used a hacked client before? - Yes but just to see what its like.
    Have you ever been punished (banned, kicked, muted, etc) legitimately on a public Minecraft server? If so, why? - I have been muted on brawl for a few times. The 6 I got in 2015 were in a week. I was acting immature and got myself muted a few times. I fully regret it. The most recent mute was 2 months ago. I was a bit mad for some reasons and was being racist. I got muted and regret that too.

    I was also going to mention this in age but decided not to. You might thing I'm immature because of my age but I am really not. Sure I can be immature sometimes, but everyone is. In my opinion, I am a pretty mature person for my age.

    What do you consider your greatest strength? - My biggest strength is my knowledge of World Edit and Minecraft Build. Even though I am not from McPVP I know much of the Build commands. For example: /mode, /muteglobal, /private, /options, /time, ect. For Wold Edit I can help the community with their world edit problems. I have knowledge of World Edit because I am a WEPro on Creative. I know commands like //set, //sphere, //cyl, //tool, //br, //schematic and many more.
    What do you consider your greatest weakness? - My biggest weakness is probably reporting my friends. I wouldn't want them muted/banned because I want to spend time with them. I've gotten one of my friends muted before, and it was not fun.
    Edit: I have been private messaging them to stop and will report them recently. This is because I think the "baisness" is inappropriate.
    Which Brawl server(s) are you most active on? - I am most active on War and Build. Build is what I am on the most. I am on Build for about 3-4H+ a day. For war I am either not on it or up to 30 minutes.

    My timeframe is 3:30 PM to 4:20 PM and 8:00 PM to 10:00 PM

    How many Brawl staff applications have you made in the past? - I have only made one application. You can find it here.
    What is the date of the last application you submitted? - September 27th, 2015
    Do you have TeamSpeak? - Yes, and I try to get on everyday. I will either be in a private channel or looking for a populated public channel. If there are none I will be in the lobby. Even though I am in the lobby, I have a working microphone. Just wanted to make it clear. Also, I am not good at starting conversations.

    Anything else you would like to state? - The reason I have a complicated timeframe is because of swimming and school. I swim every weekday and have some homework. I will usually get homework done at swimming so it doesn't effect Brawl.

    If your application is accepted, you will move on to an interview on TeamSpeak.

    You have some minor issues with maturity, but I wouldn't be too opposed to you being a moderator. (+0)

    Hi Nate! You're very active online and mature from what I've seen from you.

    I think the biggest issue is going to be related to this:
    You're self aware, which is a great step. I see this as a potential conflict of interest that would be a major struggle. It's easier to mute someone you aren't friends with than it is to mute a friend, and this is something to be careful about because it creates double standards or makes players feel like they can get away with breaking more rules "because my friend's a staff member." That can also turn into an issue of staff members undermining each other, which makes a weak team dynamic, causes drama, and makes moderating less effective overall.

    The people we spend time with have an influence. Even if you are doing everything right, if someone you spend lots of time with is causing lots of issues it can be consciously or subconsciously associated with you -- which is not completely your fault, I understand. However, as a member of a staff team you become a representative of and to the community.

    I know you're active, that you've matured a lot, and that you have a good amount of self control. I don't have anything against you being a jmod, and my concerns are listed. +0.5

    Thanks Xelasi. This is something I am aware of and I have addressed with some of them before.

    +1. I haven't played build up until recently but its clear build is in a desperate need for more chat mods. Don't know you much, but you haven't had a mute for 2 months so its clear you're mature enough for it. Good luck.

    Good luck.
