Accepted Yorei's Application - WarZ #LetsDoIt

Brawl Junior Moderator Application​

What is your in-game name? -
Yorei

Is your Minecraft account secured and migrated? -
Yes.

How old are you? -
19.

What time zone are you in? -
EDT

Are you multilingual? Can you speak multiple languages? -
In terms of usefulness for Brawl, I am not multilingual. I can speak English, mainly.

What is your experience and knowledge of Brawl? -
I started playing both mcpvp and Brawl near their openings. I stuck with Brawl mainly because of War, a gamemode I poured my heart and soul in, for around 2-3 years before I eventually applied for staff. I became a war moderator for a very short period of time, and gained a blessing to switch to WarZ. Before the j-mod system began, I was promoted to the global moderator status from the jump and I floated between all servers. Quickly, I gained traction with the WarZ community, its history and uniqueness compared to other servers. This is where I became a j-mod for around a week, and was then promoted to a global moderator once again. I played this server even more religiously than I had played War, which helped me to form an open bridge between the community and staff team. I learned a lot about the protocols and etiquette, and what it means to represent Brawl in and out of the server. I’m aware that most of the processes I learned at the time are now outdated, but it doesn’t hurt to hold this prior knowledge.

The past 2 years have been very busy for me outside of Brawl, and I didn’t have the most time to engage with Brawl during such a transitional phase in my life. I now have settled, and remembering the good years this server brought prompted me to return. I am excited and ready to pour time into this server, specifically WarZ, again.

What is your experience with moderating servers, if any? -
Brawl: April 2015 - August 2015; J-mod + Global mod experience
FrostHCF: Moderator from grand opening until shutdown
M4Play: Short-term staff member after my period at Brawl

Why do you want to become a moderator on Brawl? -
https://www.brawl.com/threads/75167/ explains the majority of it. I love this server, and I want to contribute positively to it. I have no other intentions than to help revive this game and maintain it with a strong staff team and frequent events/community activities.

I am also a huge supporter of an open staff team with a communal bridge. I hope I can add to what has already been established by the staff team by reaching agreements between players and staff on important issues, update ideas and changes.

Have you ever used a hacked client before? -
I used one on another server, admitted to it and got demoted for this reason.

Have you ever been punished (banned, kicked, muted, etc) legitimately on a public Minecraft server? If so, why? -
Yes. Prior to ban reset, I had some mutes and false bans/kicks. After the ban reset, I have had ridealong kicks for teaming with Triple, and a mute for racism, although upon reviewing the message, there was nothing serious/directive said to anyone as the context was far from a racial topic. It was not a good idea to tread waters with sensitive language, however, and I’m fully aware of that and my actions.

What do you consider your greatest strength? -
My greatest strength would be my determination. Although I have not been too active in the past couple of years, I have always had a desire to help improve WarZ. I am willing to put time and effort in as a contribution to this server. Despite my busy life with school, I have developed a good routine to make time for other activities, and I am excited that contributing to my favourite Brawl gamemode is a part of that.

What do you consider your greatest weakness? -
My greatest weakness would be close-mindedness. I tend to avoid speaking to academic advisors if I am having conflicts with courses, credits or if I need other advice for this reason. While I am an advocate for presenting all ideas, it is difficult for me to accept that mine may not always be the best. An old friend and I are hoping to use our platform on Brawl as ambassadors, where we will accept and consider all ideas and promote discussion for WarZ. I would like this chance to display my improvements, and to exhibit open-mindedness in all my staff responsibilities. The biggest place for that would be forums engagement, where I will do my best to listen to everyone’s voice and acknowledge when I am wrong or have a poor idea.

Which Brawl server(s) are you most active on? -
WarZ. As mentioned earlier, my activity these past couple years has not been linear due to some IRL events. I promise to go above and beyond in terms of activity in-game, on Discord and on the forums. I was one of the most active staff members during my prior run, and I will repeat that this time as well.

How many Brawl staff applications have you made in the past? -
7 applications, 1 of which were accepted. I am not particularly proud of that number, but I want to lay them to rest and start fresh. I am applying today for the sole reason of improving WarZ.

What is the date of the last application you submitted? -
July 11, 2017.

Do you have Discord?
Yes, and I use it everyday.

Anything else you would like to state? -
I know I don’t have the best reputation or history; even some of my relationships with others on Brawl aren’t the best. I promise to clear everything up and prove myself against that and help to #MakeWarZGreatAgain. I once loved this server and played it until my fingers hurt, and I miss the glory days of WarZ. I want to be a part of a new movement to pump out WarZ content, events, updates, and while helping the community against cheating and toxicity. Give me this chance and you will not be disappointed in me.

Thank you Socool. I hope to use that experience and do good for the server.
